Christian Mingle vs. Reality

The latest "thing" to grab my attention is Christian Mingle, a dating site for straight, single Christians. The site itself is not so interesting to me, although one person (on Facebook) pointed out that searching for God's choice "for me" online is a bit odd. I think so, too; isn't that usurping God's role? But I digress. What has captured my attention is their ads, which I  see a lot on channels like the Discovery Company's crime channel, ID (seems like an odd choice). The couples in these ads, who proudly display their wedding date, are sickeningly "pure". They are the epitome of white privileged America. The kind of folks who follow all the rules--you know, straight marriage, sex AFTER marriage, and of course having babies--and feel that they are due multiple blessings as a result. Yeah, maybe I'm reading too much into this. But I know a couple like this. They are very proud of their love, and boast pictures of it all around their home. They of course plan to have children, and she is the dutiful wife, he the head of the household. They believe they are entitled to all the blessings and privileges that come with following the Christian playbook. And what of gay families? Well, no, they can't have those blessings or privileges.  Well, they can. All it takes is entering into a God-approved relationship with someone of the opposite sex. Maybe they can find someone on Christian Mingle...
