Women are now claiming they are getting sterilized because they won’t be able to get abortions. That is really good news. If they had gotten sterilized years ago, we might not have gotten saddled with Roe vs Wade and all the problems it has caused our society. Sex outside marriage leaves many women saddled with unwanted pregnancies. The abortionist promises to help them engage in the pleasure of sex without worrying about possible pregnancy, but there will be consequences even if the woman gets an abortion. Abortions do not solve all the problems created, only the one about an unwanted baby. Many women who face abortions continue to have medical problems and some even die from abortions, not to mention the emotional stress and regret. If the women are going to engage in sexual freedom without the protection of marriage, they should make sure there aren’t any unwanted babies. Women say they have a right to control their bodies and they do. When faced with the decision to have sex or not, they have the right to refuse. However once they consent and produce a baby, they do not have the right to kill the baby to cover up their sin. If they want to play the game and not be penalized they need to protect themselves to prevent pregnancy. The same goes for men. If men are going to play the field they need to protect themselves to ensure they don’t produce unwanted babies. They should not leave it up to the woman. God ordained the family to produce children and provide a safe outlet for sexual enjoyment where children produced would be guaranteed the protection and support of a father and mother. The destruction of the family has caused many to seek sexual gratification outside of marriage and resulted in the push to abort the unwanted babies they produced. It is time we seek to restore protection for the institution of marriage and the babies produced, both inside and outside of marriage.

Fifth Sunday of Lent-Mar 17
Matt. 5:27-30 Thou shall not commit adultery-God commanded the children of Israel not to commit adultery because it destroys the marriage relationship by dividing the affection of the one committing adultery and destroys the trust of the other marriage partner. However, Jesus said You have heard it said, “You shall not commit adultery. But I say to you that everyone who looks at a woman lustfully has already committed adultery with her in his heart” It is not the act of adultery that destroys the marriage relationship but the lust that precedes the act itself. When someone lusts after another, they have already set in motion the thoughts that lead to the act and even if they never commit the act itself, they have already violated their marriage vows to love only their spouse by fostering love for someone outside the marriage in their heart.

Marriage-III-I
Marriage is an important institution which protects the husband and wife and any children. Children need a stable home to teach them to be responsible adults. As laws have been weakened, divorce has become easier and an increasing number of couples are getting divorced. As the number of mothers and fathers who are having to raise their kids alone increases, the children growing up in those families are unable to maintain a healthy marriage of their own. They eventually divorce and repeat the cycle creating an increasing number of divorces, until now the number of divorces is declining because an increasing number of adults decide to not get married in the first place. Many today are never marrying due to fear of their spouse being unfaithful. They figure that if they don’t get married, they won’t have to worry about getting a divorce. They can just leave when they want to. They still have kids but without the protection of marriage. We are seeing the fallout in not only the increasing number of kids growing up in one-parent families caused by children who never learned to deal with problems because they learned from their parents that when the going gets rough, you bail out. We are also seeing an increase in violence because they learned to attack someone who doesn’t let you have your way by watching their parents fight. In addition, we are seeing an increase in lack of respect for authority because they never had any consistent discipline and never learned that actions have consequences.

Marriage-III-H
Beginning with the hippy movement in the 1960’s, there has been an open attack on marriage. (DOMA) The Defense of Marriage Act of 1995 was a bipartisan effort signed by President Bill Clinton to protect marriage. It delayed the efforts of liberal politicians until it was overturned by the courts nineteen years later. We cannot take the institution of marriage for granted and assume our representatives will protect marriage. We are facing increasingly liberal courts that ignore the laws of this country and promote their own agenda. In addition, we are facing an increasing number of liberal politicians who ignore the rights and well-being of the voters who vote them in, in order to promote their own agenda and that of the special interest groups who fund their campaigns. Sadly, the voters are asleep and are not holding their representatives accountable, allowing politicians to vote in laws restricting the rights and threatening the well-being of their voters, without any fear of being held accountable. Politicians are increasingly avoiding discussing their programs, which they know the voters will reject, in favor of personal attacks against politicians who still seek the rights and well-being of the voters who voted them in. It is therefore important for voters to track the voting records of their politicians and vote out those who refuse to respond to the will of the voters.

The institutionalizing of marriage protects the partners from infidelity by the other. If a member of a couple who are not married finds another partner, they can simply leave and take up with their new partner. If the couple is married, they must divorce their current partner or they may be charged with adultery. Prior to the changes of the 1970’s, divorce was hard to get. It was only allowed in cases of abuse or desertion and adultery was a serious matter with stiff penalties so the wife was protected. Today, society often turns a blind eye to adultery and there are very few penalties for adultery. In addition, divorce has become so easy, one partner can end the marriage fairly easily. By allowing easy divorce, we are not protecting women who usually end up shouldering the heaviest burden of child care in the event of divorce or desertion.

One important factor is that marriage normally provides a safe, secure sexual outlet. If someone doesn’t have one, they are more likely to seek alternatives, such as pornography, prostitution, incest, and short-term sexual relationships. Our society is overrun with rapes and child molestation because people do not belong to healthy marriages that provide a safe sexual outlet. Fathers turn to their daughters for what their wife won’t provide, and mothers turn to their sons. Loners seduce or force themselves on strangers, both adults and children. Many then kill their victims to cover up their crime. In addition, many children growing up today without clear sexual rolls are confused about their sexual identity and turn to others of their own sex for the satisfaction that they should be getting from normal sexual relations. Many seek Gay and Lesbian relationships because they can not develop normal sexual relationships.
