Alan Keyes warns if gays are treated equally, it may mean the ‘extinction of humanity’

Worried that gay rights will jeopardize the survival of humankind, former GOP presidential candidate Alan Keyes writes that states like Indiana are doing us all a service by denying equal rights to the LGBT community.

In his latest column at BarbWire, Keyes proclaimed that the purpose of marriage is “to perpetuate the human species” since it is “sourced in the authority of the Creator, and therefore antecedent to any and all humanly constructed rights.”

No amount of reasoning as to the subjective gratification individuals derive from the spiritual, emotional or physical aspect of same sex couplings is relevant to this burden of proof. It has to do with humanity as a concrete fact, not as a subjective abstraction. This explains the general prejudice of mankind against the institutionalization of such couplings. For if made into a law for all, over time the concrete material manifestation of humanity would cease to exist.

“Given that same sex couplings are, as such, barren, they therefore do not have the right to marry: “For if made into a law for all, over time the concrete material manifestation of humanity would cease to exist,” he wrote.

“This large-scale extinction of humanity now seems to be an acceptable goal for some elements of what I call the elitist faction,” Keyes concluded. “For the sake of the earth, of ecology, of environmental balance and purity, they seem to have conceived a righteous hatred against the existence of the human species, and therefore against its procreation.”
