Brad Pitt<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

Actor Brad Pitt is incorrect in stating (in support of homosexual marriage) that it is a “Constitutional right [for someone] to marry the person they love, no matter what state they inhabit”.<\/p>\n

First, same-sex marriage is an oxymoron. Secondly, the definition of marriage would then have to include such abnormalities as pedophilia, incest, adultery and polygamy.<\/p>\n

In effect, “marriage” would be rendered meaningless which is what Pitt is really advocating. This is especially expressed in Pitt’s own real-life decision to live-in-sin with partner Angelina Jolie and to adopt, with her, several foreign children with whom the two cannot even communicate without an interpreter.<\/p>\n

His own example is not expressive of the natural creativeness, cohesiveness and bonding which is essential to the authentic family unit.<\/p>\n

Ultimately, Pitt confuses love with lust – a perennial trade mark of the beautiful people in Hollywood.<\/p>\n

As the basis expression of man’s social nature, marriage can only be understood as the lawful union of one man and one woman to the exclusion of all others.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Actor Brad Pitt is incorrect in stating (in support of homosexual marriage) that it is a “Constitutional right [for someone] to marry the person they love, no matter what state they inhabit”.
