Fewer and fewer people, even among the Christian community,
understand marriage to be intrinsically and inviolably heterosexual
Now let’s be clear: the fact that marriage has never been understood as a union
of persons does not itself prove the new concept to be faulty.
However, at a minimum it does establish that it is a new concept, a novel
definition that is discontinuous with the institution of marriage as it has been
understood and practice for thousands of years.
This is something the champions of gay marriage are reluctant to acknowledge,
since their case for “equal access” depends on maintaining some degree of
continuity with the norms of an existing institution.
This pretence of continuity enables them to form their arguments in quantitative
terms, as if they were merely expanding the pool of people who can get legally
married, rather than qualitatively altering the very essence of what marriage
is.
