No one is stopping homosexuals from being conservative. But if they are refusing to enter the tent unless I support homosexual marriage, I guess they’ll just have to stay outside the tent.
THey are welcome in the party... but don’t think the party is going to fight for sanctioning sodomy.
Government has no business in folks personal relationships, the only reason that government has any business in true Marriage is that a man and woman have the potential to create offspring and society does have an interest in the next generation.
Homosexuals can do what they do to each other all day long and they have ZERO chance of procreating, government has no business in their relationships.
If they want to have legal sanction of their unions, that is covered simply by partnerships and other existing laws if they choose to exercise them.
There probably are homosexuals in the Republican Party, some who have likely remained celibate and some not. If so, the reason that no one hears it constantly trumpeted is that they aren’t into yapping about it and rubbing noses in it 24/7. They would not be alarmed if fellow Republicans voiced the religious idea that practicing homosexuality is a sin; they would live and let live and wouldn’t be into special considerations and freebies. IF . . I say; don’t know for sure.
