I have been studying human relationships for most of my 60 years and my husband and I have been married to each other for forty years. Human relationships are intensely interesting. The first relationship that we encounter is at our conception. The first human right is to be conceived as a result of the love of our biological parents. Has anyone reading this ever heard of this human right? If so, do you agree? If not, why do you suppose it is so rarely presented?
Most people don't even understand what marriage is. Marriage is a participation in the life of the one true God. Marriage is a reflection of the Holy Trinity. Our bodies teach us who God is and God teaches us who we are. God has existed through eternity, Father, Son and Holy Spirit. The love between the Father and the Son has conceived, is conceiving and always will conceive the Holy Spirit through all eternity. God created our bodies to reflect this by making us male and female. In marriage we become one and co-create children. The 2 separate cells of the male sperm and female ovum become one cell, a new human being. Only the truth can set us free. We cannot change our DNA no matter what we do. Marriage between one man and one woman has 4 criteria to make it valid. It must be 1) Faithful, forsaking all others. 2) Fruitful, open to life. 3) Until death. and 4) A free choice, not coerced in anyway. I am against same sex legal unions because it undermines families and has shown to cause persecution of those who disagree with it. It has caused many to lose their rights to freedom of religion. It also continues to cause the suffering of children. Children have the right to be conceived in the love of their biological parents. Very few care about the human rights of children any more. There is much more that can be said about our first human relationship but here is a start.
I hope to use this steemit platform to encourage fulfilling relationships for anyone interested enough to read these posts and enter into civil dialogue.
