I think he's conflating at least 3 things at once, intentionally or otherwise, to try and justify his conclusion to himself. That's all he's going to achieve here; it's not like the law is going to be repealed if he can come up with a killer argument, and it's obvious no one is buying what he has to sell.
I picked up on his phrase "society crumbling", and I can only assume this means moving further away from a Christian-dominated culture where everything is about Jesus, and Christianity can dictate to the masses. It's genuinely sad to me that what I see as a crucial, ground breaking decision could be seen by someone else as a step backwards. Children born now, who don't get brainwashed with bigotry, are going to have a tough time understanding why anyone would have ever wanted to deny certain people the right to be married.
PS: if this is about God's blessings or definitions, then I think he can handle it himself, as I always say. He doesn't need Steve presuming to speak for him.
