So often we hear that allowing two men or two women to marry will not hurt anyone, and certainly not "straight" people. Well, the truth is, we already know what happens when a society promotes sexual license and devalues marriage. We just have to look at history.
 I once interviewed a delightful cookbook author from Georgia who got one of those 'things to do before you die' books for her sixtieth birthday and declared, "I'm going to open this book at random and whatever page I land on, I'll do." She confessed to me she was hoping for "visit a world-class spa" or something similar. What she got was "climb Mount Kilimanjaro."
 The formula for a happy marriage? It's the same as the one for living in California: when you find a fault, don't dwell on it!
 While sexuality appears to be excessively discussed in every vein of society, there is one demographic that, as a whole, publicly refrains from talking about sex - the married Christian woman.

 A couple of months ago, I posted a question about an ethical dilemma a recently engaged woman is facing. She just found out that her spouse to-be has had "ongoing struggles with pornography." She isn't sure what to do, or how to make sure the issue is sufficiently addressed. You gave your thoughts on the issue, and here are mine.

 Everyone looks for love in life but that need cannot be fulfilled with sex before or outside marriage, Pastor Greg Laurie, the lead pastor at Harvest Church in Riverside, Calif., said.
 Spouse and I are both Christians. We bowed our knee at the Cross early in life. When we married, there were three of us involved in making this union succeed. And we wanted to make all of those relationships prosper: as individuals, as a couple, and us with God.  We suggest four convictions that all parents should consider and uphold. Too many teenagers are being permanently scarred by the dating game. We think it's time for parents to take a long, hard look at teenagers and dating, and to develop a fresh approach, prayerfully determine limits, and train your child to hold fast to the boundaries that you set.  With the politicization of the homosexual agenda there is the oft repeated assertion that there is a genetic link to homosexuality. The thought is that if people believe that homosexuality is genetically determined then they will be more favorable to changing not only laws but even religious teaching concerning homosexuality.
