Momentous indeed:

I had been thinking of compiling a list of articles explaining natural law (non-revelational) explaining why same-sex “marriage” isn’t marriage. This article almost does it all. It doesn’t cover every possible argument, but it is comprehensive and thorough both in presenting its own side and handling objections. It’s a true must-read.
