Some reaction to Obama's endorsement of "same-sex marriage"

From WDTPRS: Obama the Theologian invokes Christ while endorsing unnatural sexual acts, same-sex “marriage”. Fr. Z rants.
Obama instrumentalized the Lord’s Sacrifice, the ultimate act of the love which is charity, to promote unnatural sex and the overturning of one of our most important societal bonds.

We, according to charity, must act for the true good of the other. It is not for the true good of another person to help them to sin or to undermine Christian morals. But that is exactly what Obama is doing. This is an astounding example of both scandal and blasphemy. It is beyond absurd to to invoke the Lord’s Sacrifice in an attempt to violate our human nature and God’s laws.

Obama invoked the Sacrifice of the Cross for the sake of justifying the destruction of the definition of “marriage”, as if that is “good” for people. It is NOT for the good of anyone, because it promotes and condones a sin that cries to heaven.

We cannot wish that people sin.
We cannot help them sin.
We cannot tell them that sin is good.
We cannot give them the means to sin so that they will sin.
We cannot defend the sins of others.

In charity, we must treat people with the affliction of sex-sex attraction according to their God-given dignity. In charity, we can NEVER condone their sinful acts.

[...] What the President did was vile [...] He is an embarrassment to the United States.

Meanwhile, Whale Oil is asking why our political leaders won't do the same and then mocking the arguments against the redefinition of marriage.  While as David Farrar thinks that Obama has guts, and that opposition to "gay marriage" will wane with time as most of the bias comes from those aged over 60.

I recommend they both read this article: Why Judaism rejected homosexuality. As the introduction to it says:
When Judaism demanded that all sexual activity be channeled into marriage, it changed the world. The Torah's prohibition of non-marital sex quite simply made the creation of Western civilization possible.

And the converse will be true.

The irony here is men supporting something that will disproportionately harm women and children.  Men are supposed to be our protectors, but many men in today's times act like narcissistic children.

Meanwhile, the yet another American state has rejected "same-sex marriage" by a 61%-39% margin: North Carolina voters approve marriage amendment.
