The following letter was sent to a number of daily newspapers in our nation, when the government of the ACT (Canberra's local governing body) legislated to accept civil union, that is of homosexuals, both men and women. This challenged the supremacy of man and woman marriage as God had ordained in Genesis, and which Christ commended. The Governor-General. Sir Michael Jeffrey, a Christian General from Vietnam, refused to sign the legislation.

Our godly Prime Minister, John Howard, legislated in the national Parliament, refuting the prior edict, and legislating that only man and woman families be recognised in our nation. While this passed the lower House of Assembly, it was defeated in the Senate, when some crossed the floor and rejected the Prime Minister's motion.

Antagonistic forces contrive to destroy the sanctity of Bible marriage, and suggest a substitute which nonsensibly contradicts the Word of God. My prayerful letter.

In chemistry, the highly explosive hydrogen is attached to life-nourishing oxygen to form necessary water. If you butt in to the formula, the hydrogen alone will detonate and devastate. If you add another oxygen molecule, you produce hydrogen peroxide, good for bleaching and as an antiseptic. Male and female bonded in love in marriage should be as stable as pure H2O in the morning shower. Our bodies are 90% water. Don't meddle with water or marriage.

Only the marriage of man and woman can interchange 46 chromosomes, and produce a new identity, unparalleled among billions. That's great fun in marriage.
When the breast feeding mother supplies her babe with 4 hourly feeds she supplies approximately 40 gallons (182 litres) over nine months. Great for kids to watch as Mum feed the wee one: and true education.

A biological father and mother can steer their teenager sons and daughters through their developing years. And make real fun our of their sport, study and increasing social awareness; harmonious home lives display a man and woman deeply in love with each other and their kids.

After a generation in family medicine, raising 7 beautiful children and 17 grandchildren, and another generation on the way, I plead after 64 years of wedded life,
'For God's sake, don't meddle with marriage. It's beautiful and safe: and lasts.'

The bible declares that a man shall leave his father and mother and cleave to his wife: and they shall be one flesh.' The eternal wisdom of an infinite Lord.
Christ said, 'What God has joined together, let not man put asunder.'
