The Gay Marriage Issue Misses the Point

RE: The Gay Marriage Issue Misses the Point
(January 19, 2013 at 7:10 pm)apophenia Wrote: From what I've observed in my own state, which was recently a battleground state, they use the issue of how legitimizing homosexuality will affect society, and particularly the effect that legitimacy could have on children if open homosexuality is endorsed by and taught in public schools and the like. 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.
