From the Paper:

"This writer also feels that homosexuals should have their rights protected as befits a tolerant and open society, but that the traditional definition of marriage has served us well as the basic social unit and should not be overturned; likewise, the environment is important, as well, but climactic change has always been a part of the earth's history and is a phenomenon largely beyond the ability of human beings to control. As a final "value," this writer believes strongly that the western civilization which gave us equality between the sexes and the best elements of classical liberalism should be privileged more in our institutions of higher learning; therefore, cultural relativism and "multiculturalism" has led to the diminishment of a worthy cultural legacy in the west."
