Most of us have heard the expression "A rose by any other name . smell as sweet". It seems to me that the underlying thought of that statement is being adapted to the strategy of those who would completely change society to fit their desires by changing the definition of words.
Ir worked for the rose so let us change the definition of marriage. Even though for thousands of years the word, according to all of the dictionaries, said: Marriage is the union between a man and a woman. So change the definition. Why not make it between any two consenting adults. Why not go farther and make it a union between a cowboy and his horse.
There once was a time when a person was a racist if he judged a person by the color of his skin. He or she was a lower class person simply because their skin was a different color. But that has been changed so drastically that you cannot use an expression like Chinese virus. It makes no difference that the use of the word simply denotes a suspected source of a virus and no judgmental opinion on any citizen of China. I suppose an Irishman could object about the use of the term Irish Potato.
We have never had a problem with bathroom privileges until we have a group of people who are in the process of changing their gender. All of a sudden we have a problem. I fail to see why a person would be uncomfortable in using the bathroom they have been using all of their life. However, I will give them that possibility that they may have become uncomfortable with that restroom. But, what could possibly be wrong with having three bathrooms or even four bathrooms.
Much of the changes that we are facing today have more to do with not wanting others to have what they have had for years and for them to accept the life style of others,
The aroma of a rose would be there if you changed its name. Very few words are compatible with more than one accepted definition, To do so weakens the word to where it has no meaning or definition.
