1
00:00:00,600 --> 00:00:03,840
Speaker 1: And this is Albert Moeler for town hall dot com. Portland,

2
00:00:03,920 --> 00:00:08,320
Speaker 1: Oregon has just made itself ground zero for polyamory. Polyamory

3
00:00:08,640 --> 00:00:10,920
Speaker 1: is the word that Americans are going to have to

4
00:00:10,960 --> 00:00:13,960
Speaker 1: recognize more frequently. It refers to different kinds of love,

5
00:00:14,000 --> 00:00:16,439
Speaker 1: different kinds of relationships. It can refer to same sex

6
00:00:16,480 --> 00:00:19,480
Speaker 1: or heterosexual relationships. It can be between three, four or

7
00:00:19,520 --> 00:00:23,400
Speaker 1: five Well you count them people. Portland has just decided

8
00:00:23,400 --> 00:00:27,120
Speaker 1: to include legal protection for polyamorous relationships and what they

9
00:00:27,160 --> 00:00:31,000
Speaker 1: call polyamorous families. How's that phar an oxymoron? Now, I

10
00:00:31,040 --> 00:00:32,720
Speaker 1: don't think there's going to be a mad dash to

11
00:00:32,760 --> 00:00:35,640
Speaker 1: polyamorous situations in most of the country. I think what

12
00:00:35,640 --> 00:00:39,120
Speaker 1: you're seeing here is the deliberate destabilization of marriage itself.

13
00:00:39,320 --> 00:00:41,279
Speaker 1: This is part of a bigger strategy of those on

14
00:00:41,320 --> 00:00:43,680
Speaker 1: the left who want to subvert a biblical view of

15
00:00:43,720 --> 00:00:47,040
Speaker 1: marriage as central to our own civilizational project. They want

16
00:00:47,040 --> 00:00:49,720
Speaker 1: to destroy any commitment to marriage as the union of

17
00:00:49,760 --> 00:00:53,120
Speaker 1: a man and a woman. They want to destabilize the family.

18
00:00:53,360 --> 00:00:56,480
Speaker 1: They want to do all of this period. What starts

19
00:00:56,480 --> 00:00:58,440
Speaker 1: in Portland, it doesn't stay in Portland.
