(1Ti 4:1-3) Now the Spirit expressly says that in later times some will depart from the faith by giving heed to deceitful spirits and doctrines of demons, through the pretensions of liars whose consciences are seared, who forbid marriage and enjoin abstinence from foods which God created to be received with thanksgiving by those who believe and know the truth.

EDITORIAL: Battling for America's Soul: How Homosexual "Marriage" Threatens Our Nation and Faith

It is clear, therefore, that the battle for marriage in America is the clash of two worldviews.  On the one hand, those Americans who still defend a moral law.  On the other, the homosexual revolution and its secularist allies.

The stakes are also clear.  This is a battle for the soul of America.  The so-called Cultural War is gradually becoming a Religious War.  For one cannot modify the lex agendi (rules of morals) without thereby modifying the lex credendi (rules of belief) given the profound relationship between the two.  He who accepts as good and even exalts homosexual practice cannot adore the true and living God who destroyed Sodom and Gomorrah because of that sin.  (Gen.  18-19)

In view of the above, it is urgent to resist the imposition on our country of "morals" opposed to those of Christ.

Our resistance must be accompanied by sincere, ardent, and persevering prayer, since, as the Savior admonished us, "without Me you can do nothing." (John 15:5)

Lastly, since the legalization of homosexual "marriage" is a public sin that can draw God's punishment upon our country, we must sacrifice and do penance, for God does not despise "a contrite and humbled heart." (Ps.  50:19)

The hour is late.  Our Lady warned at Fatima that sin weighs heavily in the scales of God's justice.  God will not be mocked.  (Gal.  6:7) By taking energetic and faithful action in this struggle, we can heed the Blessed Mother's maternal warning, recognize and correct our failings, and rightly be one nation under God.  The choice is ours.

May She help us all to do our duty, in full and faithful compliance with the perennial and immutable teaching of Holy Mother Church on the intrinsic evilness of homosexual acts.
