Washington Same-Sex Marriage Proponents: Require Heterosexual Couples to Have Kids or Face Annulment

OLYMPIA, Wash. —  Proponents of same-sex marriage have introduced a ballot measure that would require heterosexual couples to have a child within three years or have their marriages annulled.

The Washington Defense of Marriage Alliance acknowledged on its Web site that the initiative was "absurd" but hoped the idea prompts "discussion about the many misguided assumptions" underlying a state Supreme Court ruling that upheld a ban on same-sex marriage.

The measure would require couples to prove they can have children to get a marriage license. Couples who do not have children within three years could have their marriages annulled.

All other marriages would be defined as "unrecognized," making those couples ineligible for marriage benefits.

The paperwork for the measure was submitted last month. Supporters must gather at least 224,800 signatures by July 6 to put it on the November ballot.

The group said the proposal was aimed at "social conservatives who have long screamed that marriage exists for the sole purpose of procreation."

Cheryl Haskins, executive director of Allies for Marriage and Children, said opponents of same-sex marriage want only to preserve marriage as the union of a man and a woman.

"Some of those unions produce children and some of them don't," she said.

Anything they can do to attack marriage, decent morality and most of all God.

This is NUTS!  I think anyone who comes up with this kind of plan should have their brain checked and annulled!

I think their brains were already annulled. That's why they came up with it.   Grin Grin

I would ask when will it end....but I already know the answer.  There are times I do wish we were under the old covenant still and a pillar of fire would come down.  But all I will do is pray and try to think of other methods of support in fighting Satan on these fronts.

Just think if same sex marriage was the majority how would life exist? If there were no test tube babies or adoption... In order for those women to get pregnant there would have to be "extra-marrital" affairs running rampant. I use that term ever so lightly btw.. The human race would end.  I wonder how many of the gays have thought about that. It turns my stomach. I will pray for all those lost souls.  When that great trumpet blows and all these non believers fall down and see Christ coming in all His glory then and only then will they believe..
