Gay Marriage bans don't go far enough.
Recent moves by our government to ban gay Marriage are entirely welcome but they are, ultimately futile and pitiful and do not go anywhere near far enough.
As the population of this country ages at an alarming rate (the only comfort is that it grows wiser and more conservative at the same time), the crisis in this nation becomes ever more apparent.
There are simply not enough right-minded children being born to pay future taxes required to support healthcare and welfare for the elderly.
And why is this?
The steady erosion of the bedrock of this country - Marriage. For those educated in a state or ethnic school, Marriage is the sacred, life-long union (to the exclusion of all others) in the eyes of God of a man and a woman with the express purpose of producing children.
If Marriage was treated with the reverence with which it should be, Australia would have an abundance of youth and people of my generation and those before me would not now face life in a caravan park sleeping in our own faeces eating cat-food (if we are lucky).
But no, over the last 500 years, those of a more left leaning persuasion have hacked away, hacked away at Marriage leaving us with next to nothing.
The rot set in (in the civilised, White world, at least) with Henry VIII and his insistence upon inventing that blackest of concepts - Divorce.
Returning to the definition of Marriage (taken from the Blotionary - source of all wisdom on Earth), it needs to be LIFE-LONG. Once you are in, you stick with it until you are dead. No ifs, buts or maybes. By giving people the option to simply send a text message or e-mail or sign a document to end their LIFE-LONG commitment to their wife or husband, of course Marriage will not be valued as highly and of course children will not be produced.
The answer, is simple. Abolish Divorce and ban anyone who has previously been Divorced from ever getting Married again. They obviously don't take it seriously so why should their character failure permit them to sully the institution on a whim?
Non-Christians should similarly be banned from Marriage - it is, after all, a union in the eyes of God and how can a vow taken without the approval of God have any legal or moral standing.
The man and woman part has - for the most part been addressed - although we should also ban transsexuals for clarities sake (though no doubt they would fall under the Godless clause) which leads us to Marriage as an institution designed for the production of children.
Obviously, those too old to breed, the infertile and those not intending to breed should also be banned from Marriage. Similarly, ugly people should be strongly discouraged, if not banned outright.
Then and only then perhaps will this most holy institution of Love be able to regain some of the stature that has been chipped away at it since the middle ages.
And then, perhaps, God willing, the sanctity
