While I don't agree with their thinking, it does then become a public issue and they have been very effective at selling this and other messages in order to drum up opposition to gay marriage.
Oh, yeah, they REALLY lean on the 'think-of-the-children' meme to push their agenda. They're especially strong with gay marriage, but they'll role it out in other areas as well.
