WEBVTT - Albert Mohler: Portland Embraces Polyamory 

0:00:00.600 --> 0:00:03.840
<v Speaker 1>And this is Albert Moeler for town hall dot com. Portland,

0:00:03.920 --> 0:00:08.320
<v Speaker 1>Oregon has just made itself ground zero for polyamory. Polyamory

0:00:08.640 --> 0:00:10.920
<v Speaker 1>is the word that Americans are going to have to

0:00:10.960 --> 0:00:13.960
<v Speaker 1>recognize more frequently. It refers to different kinds of love,

0:00:14.000 --> 0:00:16.439
<v Speaker 1>different kinds of relationships. It can refer to same sex

0:00:16.480 --> 0:00:19.480
<v Speaker 1>or heterosexual relationships. It can be between three, four or

0:00:19.520 --> 0:00:23.400
<v Speaker 1>five Well you count them people. Portland has just decided

0:00:23.400 --> 0:00:27.120
<v Speaker 1>to include legal protection for polyamorous relationships and what they

0:00:27.160 --> 0:00:31.000
<v Speaker 1>call polyamorous families. How's that phar an oxymoron? Now, I

0:00:31.040 --> 0:00:32.720
<v Speaker 1>don't think there's going to be a mad dash to

0:00:32.760 --> 0:00:35.640
<v Speaker 1>polyamorous situations in most of the country. I think what

0:00:35.640 --> 0:00:39.120
<v Speaker 1>you're seeing here is the deliberate destabilization of marriage itself.

0:00:39.320 --> 0:00:41.279
<v Speaker 1>This is part of a bigger strategy of those on

0:00:41.320 --> 0:00:43.680
<v Speaker 1>the left who want to subvert a biblical view of

0:00:43.720 --> 0:00:47.040
<v Speaker 1>marriage as central to our own civilizational project. They want

0:00:47.040 --> 0:00:49.720
<v Speaker 1>to destroy any commitment to marriage as the union of

0:00:49.760 --> 0:00:53.120
<v Speaker 1>a man and a woman. They want to destabilize the family.

0:00:53.360 --> 0:00:56.480
<v Speaker 1>They want to do all of this period. What starts

0:00:56.480 --> 0:00:58.440
<v Speaker 1>in Portland, it doesn't stay in Portland.
