Thinking the government should intervene and deny marriage licenses to a certain sect of people that don’t fit their criteria isn’t anti-LGBT? What is it then?
If we believe marriage is a right guaranteed by the Constitution (I.e., the government is involved in issuing marriage licenses so therefore they’re involved heavily), then Focus on the Family are promoting discrimination under rule of law. Personal views aside, the government cannot pick and choose who gets a government granted right and associated benefits. Sorry.
They actively lobbied for a federal amendment promoting that the federal government exclude a LGBT people from marriage. I don’t care what they believe as a church. I have a problem when they use arbitrary classifications of who is entitled to the government granted benefits of a particular license...in this case marriage.
I can’t argue with anyone that think male and female are arbitrary terms.
