Questions and Answers about Marriage and Same-Sex Union
The two clauses delve into the contemporary debate of said(prenominal) enkindle married couple. The first one presents the conservative orthodox view of the Catholic religious belief on analogous depend on union while the second article presents an unorthodox view which is more liberal and accepting. Both article abet a stand on the same issue and aims to spread the goodness news of their stand. The two articles tackle the issue of same sex union by giving their own definition of pairing.The orthodox view argues that marriage, as instituted by God, is a trustful, exclusive, lifelong union of a man and a woman joined in an intimate community of life and honor and that same sex union is an altogether different thing from marriage since it does not fit the definition. They say that it is not based on the indispensable complementarity of male and female it cannot cooperate with God to create new life and the natural purpose of sexual union cannot be achieved by a same-sex uni on.The liberal view points otherwise saying that Marriage can be defined as the unique and special form of committed companionship and this does not say that the persons have to be heterosexually attracted, thus people of the same sex can still be married. This contrasting view is an provoke point for further comparison and contrasting. Both authors use the bible as their authoritative source of arguments. The USCCB in sum claims that what is right is what is written in the bible, Prof.Maguire on his part claims that the bible as a historical distinguish is not an account of what is right, it sometimes contain accounts which recommends what should not be through as depicted by the lesson of particular stories like in the stories about slavery. The liberal view purports that more Catholic theologians agree now with Protestant and Jewish theologians that same sex unions can be moral, healthy, and holy and that many Catholic people are living in same sex unions and adopting childr en and still practicing their Catholic faith however .While the USCCB continues to campaign against the equation of same sex unions to marriage and urges followers to keep their opinions in line with the teachings of their faith and of the bible. While using almost the same source, the bible and the interpretation of the reciprocation of God, both authors argue in different directions both of which does not promptly rebut each other.
