Republican Family Values (Part 2)

Now my reasons for maintaining an opposition to adultery. When two people love each other that creates an expectation that the love is unique and creates a special bond between people. When people love each other romantically, the expectation is that the love is so unique it should not be shared. Families are the fruits of love. The love they have for each other may vary, from romantic to simply a recognition of blood relation, but the love still remains.
This love allows them to interact and live their lives productively. When a person in a romantic love relationship commits adultery they are announcing that the love is not unique. The other person expected it to be unique so when this happens the relationship disappears and becomes something new. The love is gone. It is possible to love the adulterer for being the father of your kids, supporting the family, but those are a different kind of love. The romantic love is gone. This change may be so profound it damages the other feelings of love as well. It usually also creates other feelings that overwhelm the remaining love.
Feelings such as hatred, anger, rage, betrayal, disappointment, sadness can overwhelm a person. The introduction of these feelings is harmful because not only will it affect the person's love to the adulterer, but also their personality and how they interact with others. When this happens families love for each other fall apart. The family is essentially destroyed. The leaves are still there but instead of being vibrant and productive they become withered and eventually die. The family dies because of adultery. The people physically live on but the love that was the stem of the family is gone, and that family is dead. That is why I maintain and support the Republican opposition to adultery.
I do not alter my viewpoint from the Republican viewpoint on seme-sex marriage because I am gay. I alter it because allowing same-sex marriage is consistent to our core values. A strong family is one that respects each other, promotes civility, morality, and productivity within the members, and holds a commitment to the family to provide a role in its benefit. I know it sounds superficial to say those things, but nobody has talked about it.
The core Republican belief that we support families and wish to make them stronger has no 'written in stone' definitions. Some have tried to define it as a man and a woman and two and a half kids. They say this is the ideal environment for a family. Statistically they are true however I return to asking that those studies analyze the number of people and not the types of people.
I am only defining a family in terms that a Republican and the rest of the American public support. I still support families, however I do not define it with a manufactured template for a mother, father, and two and a half kids. I define it by the values we believe in, which has been missed and undefended in many arguements about families. This is because a standard template is not applicable to human nature.
Lets use an example. A mother and father are raising two kids. One of them steals from a store. Neither one tells him not to do it. The other kid steals from a store. The family did not teach civility and thus had a detrimental effect on society. Now a single mother has two kids and one steals from a store. She forces him to return to the store and apologize. The other kid does not steal candy from the store. That family does not fit the family profile but has something more important: family values.The family values we promote have been mistaken as a profile, as such I wish to clarify it among ourselves and our opponents. As Republicans we should emphasis family values rather than a family profile.
Allowing same-sex marriage would increase the strength of family. It would allow two people to show a commitment to each other and that allows for a stronger bond between them. This bond is what a family is made of. These bonds improve society by giving people stability. That is why families are seen as a strong element in a strong America. The stability of a family creates productive and civil people to aid society in becoming productive and stable as well. By allowing more of these bonds to form and strengthen more families we would be advancing our values and in doing so improving not only the Republican Party but our country. That is why I support gay marriage and believe that doing so does not go against our core values.
