Título
What's wrong with same-sex marriage?

D. James Kennedy

Resumen
Unafraid to be politically incorrect, the authors launch a two-pronged counterassault against attacks on traditional marriage. Their first aim is to unveil the repercussions of accepting same-sex marriage in American society. The second is to cut to the source of the issue by examining homosexuality itself. One of the more instructive pieces of information originating from the latter half of the book relates to the idea that homosexuality is somehow genetic in nature. In this arena, the stakes are high for the gay and lesbian community. If homosexuality were intrinsic to biological makeup, society would have a more difficult time asking that homosexuals conform to a heterosexual lifestyle. According to numerous experts cited by the authors, research that seems to support the "born gay" hypothesis has been shaky at best. Findings typically cannot be replicated, and researchers frequently allow their politics to persuade their science. The authors use Scripture to show what God says about homosexuality and marriage, and they dispel myths about homosexuality. Only one Authority can determine right and wrong, and its up to us to stand behind His Word.
