When you raise the issue of the sanctity of marriage, the so-called progressive or tolerant people are quick to accuse you of being narrow minded or intoelrant.
There is a reason why homosexual marriage registers and civil registers must be resisted: becasue once you break the link between marriage and heterosexuality then everything is negotiable and nothing is sacred.
This article shows the terrible fruit of opening the door even a little bit.
Fanatical Swedish Feminists
The stuff about chopping men to bits might have been a bit much.
With Congress about to take up the Federal Marriage Amendment, let’s travel a little and take a look at how marriage is faring in Scandinavia — specifically Sweden, famous as a bellwether of family change. In 1987, Sweden offered same-sex couples the first domestic partnership package in Europe. This led Denmark in 1989, then Norway in 1993, to set up a more elaborate system of “registered partnerships” (with nearly all the rights of marriage), which Sweden adopted in 1994. I discussed some of these changes in The End of Marriage in ScandinaviaFebruary 2004 piece. yet much has happened since then.
The years 2004 and 2005 saw the growth, collapse, and apparent rebirth of a campaign to abolish Swedish marriage and replace it with a gender-neutral partnership system that allows for multi-partner relationships. This story of the drive to abolish marriage in Sweden is bound up with one of the most bizarre and fascinating political tales of recent years: the rise and burnout of Sweden’s first political party built entirely around women’s issues: the Feminist Initiative (FI). (See “The definitive guide to equality in Sweden.”)
