The Tide is Turning - Ethika Politika

The Tide is Turning - Ethika Politika:

A recent Pew Poll has found that most Americans, regardless of their perspective on same sex marriage, view its coming as inevitable.
Yes, the tide is turning, and the Pew Poll surely sounds like the ringing of victory bells to those for whom the bell’s tolls are a welcome and much anticipated sound; not just advocates of same sex marriage but those who have pushed for the demise of any sort of “traditional” sexual mores from American life.
Even though such numbers can be misleading due to the wording of questions, nobody can doubt that the general acceptance of same sex marriage is on the rise. Nor can anyone deny the chilling numbers on out-of-wedlock births, abortions, fatherless children and divorce rates. The tide is indeed turning.
But perhaps not in the direction you think.
The impetus for the same sex marriage movement has been the continuation of a line of logic that began long ago and was accelerated by a complex nexus of cultural developments in the 1960s.
