Donald Sensing of One Hand Clapping has an editorial furthering the position I've been arguing here that same-sex marriage is the effect of, and not a cause of, the fall of traditional marriage in Western society. This is all in the context of psychobiological arguments for traditional marriage and how the sexual revolution led to our becoming distanced from such reasons for traditional marriage. I agree with him both that this is lamentable and that the discussion is already over and has been for many years. Let's move on to deal with the consequences (which will involve Christians making a case for a Christian concept of marriage -- I'm not giving in on that -- it's just that we have little hope of convincing Western society of any of it short of a miraculous revival on a spiritual and not just intellectual level).
