We prohibit_polygamy to protect women against religious and cultural abuse.

We prohibit_bestiality to protect animals against abuse, not to mention to just put a stop to perversion.

We prohibit_pederasty to protect children.

We prohibit_murder to protect people from killing each other.

We prohibit_incest to protect families against abuse and to avoid the chance of babies with genetic abnormalities.

We prohibit two people of the same gender from being called a marriage because kids have the right to be raised by their biological mother and father - same-gender marriages legally deny them this right 100% of the time, by design. So we protect kids from this by prohibiting any other form of "marriage" besides one man and one woman.

We prohibit two people of the same gender from being called a marriage because kids have the right to be raised by a mother and a father, not forced into setups that are dysfunctional 100% of the time and deny them this right: two or more fathers and no mother, or two or more mothers and no father. So we protect kids from being legally denied this right by prohibiting any other form of "marriage" besides one man and one woman.

We prohibit two people of same gender from being called a marriage (which it NEVER has in the history of the world) by the state as that's the state violating the constitution to establish their own state religion: Redefining religious institutions they never defined to begin with.

We prohibit two people of the same gender from being called a marriage because the government is violating the First Amendment of the Constitution of the United States of America by REDEFINING religious institutions then passing laws to establish this new state religion where anyone who does not adhere to this new state religion is condemned as a criminal: sued and fined thousands of dollars.

We prohibit two people of the same gender from being called a marriage because in general marriage is for the possibility of procreation for the continuance of society - it's the bedrock of any healthy society. A same-gender marriage is, by design, never capable of such a thing and hence has one less basis of being called a "marriage".

We prohibit two people of the same gender from being called a marriage because any pro-creation should be within a marriage - same-gender 'marriages' are forced to go outside the 'marriage" 100% of the time by design. So we prohibit same-gender "marriage" to protect the foundation of a healthy nation.

We prohibit two people of the same gender from being called a marriage to protect Christians from being charged as a criminal if they do not violate their beliefs.

We prohibit two people of the same gender from being called a marriage because every single person alive has one biological mother and one biological father. Nature alone re-iterates what marriage is - that this is what a family is.

Tell you about Creation? No problem.

In the beginning, God created.
Done. Wasn't that easy? And the universe confirms it. Overwhelming evidence of clear intelligent design with purpose in everything we see.

I'll elaborate. I know most of you anti God, LGBT trolls are a little slow.

There's just no getting around the intelligent design argument. Unless you're a blooming id!ot. Creation itself testifies of our Creator. Just the discoveries in a strand of DNA should have ended all debate a long time ago: “DNA is an information code. The overwhelming conclusion is that information DOES NOT and CANNOT arise spontaneously by mechanistic processes. INTELLIGENCE is a necessity in the origin of any informational code, including the genetic code, NO MATTER how much time is given.” (Lane Lester, Ph.D. Genetics, The Natural Limits to Biological Change, 1989.)

Open a medical book and see the absolute marvel that is the human body. Flip through the different systems of our bodies. And then try to “fit” evolution into what you are actually seeing. Circulatory system, nervous system, skeletal system, muscular system, digestive system, endocrine system, immune system, urinary system, reproductive system, respiratory system. Ridiculous integration and complexity in design! So many complex systems designed to work together or not at all. We are incredible "machines" that defy "magic". The logical conclusion is intelligent design. The illogical, "magic".

Now lets have a look at the universe. Einstein and his contemporaries believed the universe was a constant. That it had no beginning, that it always just was. Until Hubble came along and proved with scientific measurements that it was expanding and so, indeed, had a beginning from which it expanded. The Bible for thousands of years has told us that creation began suddenly when God proclaimed, “Let there be light.” Further, the Bible repeatedly states that God has “stretched out the heavens.” Interesting choice of words as it turns out. Scientists today are confirming that our universe indeed had a beginning, a sudden explosion of light followed by rapid expansion. Einstein and the greatest scientific minds of the twentieth century, WRONG. BIBLE RIGHT. Can you explain that for me? Guess those simple shepherds just guessed it right, huh? Just another COINCIDENCE in a never ending chain of coincidences where God is concerned.

Whatever you want to believe, the Bible has already told us that this universe we live in had a beginning and science confirms it. So WHERE did IT come from? WHAT caused IT to BE? Big Bang? Obviously, SOMEBODY made IT (?) go bang!

What you would call "magic", I know as GOD. No matter how you cut it, everything came from somewhere, and SOMEONE or SOMETHING had to just BE, for it all to come FROM. Had to be a starting point.
Now what is more logical?

Magic? Or the Intelligent Design that is overwhelmingly supported by the body of evidence? Exactly. My "hypocritical statements"? Hardly.
I'm just not fool enough to believe that highly complex "machines" and systems CREATE THEMSELVES. Just follow the scientific evidence and let's give the credit to WHO it is due.
