Thoughts

A good family with a married mother and father who honor marital vows is the safest place on earth that Heavenly Father could send His children. It is the most likely place Heavenly Father's children will learn about Him. That is why Satan attacks the family. Satan's really good at it too. He attacks and breaks down the family specifically by separating sex from children.  Satan then accuses the good people supporting the natural family as being mean, bigoted, and unfair. These arguments are very persuasive. When enough people believe that and change their minds in order to be "kind", he attacks the rest with worry-- worry that their views on the family will be known and they will be attacked or lose a job or friends over it. Satan is very clever.

A friend of mine, wrote this excellent essay on birth control and gay marriage. It is well worth the read.
