A Secular Case For Defending Marriage and Children

By Cronshaw Jones​

Allowing the law to normalize, promote, and protect against criticism, homosexual behavior and all the consequences of such a lifestyle, will damage our nation’s children and lead to a massive increase in child abuse (emotional, mental and physical), drug abuse and youth suicide. Adults have a duty of care to protect children, not harm them.

There is enough for children to worry about as they grow up, they should not need to have to deal with such things as a man "marrying" another man and pretending that doing such sexual acts to each other is good and normal.

Australia’s children are having divisive arguments about homosexual “marriage” in school playgrounds. They should not need to even have to think about a man putting his penis in another man’s anus (designed to excrete human waste), let alone have to take sides as if sodomy is some sort of human rights or civil rights issue, instead of an act which has among other things caused the worldwide spread of the AIDS virus and left millions of children orphans.

Please do not pander to a minority of selfish adults seeking to normalize their own unnatural lifestyle. Please be a responsible adult and leave marriage alone, if only for children's sake.

This is not an issue of civil rights. The issue of redefining marriage to pretend that a man can “marry” another man and then do the sexual things they do to each other as “husband” and “wife” is a long way from being a civil rights or human rights issue.

It is in fact nothing of the sort. It is an issue Australians are being bullied into accepting by a vocal minority of intimidators who have managed to silence the media and politicians on this issue. In fact I suggest that any attempt to normalize this sexual activity is in reality a child protection issue.

Please think of the message being taught to the children of Australian by our leaders pretending such an issue is akin to freeing slaves or fighting apartheid. Children will be intimidated into thinking sodomy is okay because it is being elevated to such heights and fought for as if it was the most noble cause in the world.

By even discussing this positively in parliament politicians are saying that it is okay for men to do this sort of sexual act (sodomy) to each other, and therefore why not children to each other and adults to children.

Children need protection by politicians and our community leaders.

Governments should protect children not create an environment which encourages boys to do this sort of sexual act to each other and to make it easier for pedophiles to do it to boys.

Think of what happened in Ballarat, where so many boys committed suicide because of the homosexual abuse perpetrated on them by homosexuals. The recent Royal Commission into child sexual abuse should remind you that children need protection from sexual deviancy. If homosexual sex acts are normalized by changing the legal definition of marriage, homosexual offenders will no longer need to infiltrate and hide inside an institutional structure such as the Catholic Church, they will be let loose, free to practice their depravity wherever they like, boarding schools, schools, day care centres…

Have you considered that normalizing this will lead to a rise in child sexual abuse by adults to children and by children to other children? We should as a society be aiming to abolish child abuse not promote it with our laws.
