The government (or anyone else) has no right to dictate Church teaching or orthodoxy.
I went to a wedding at my parish. There were two Lesbians sitting across the aisle from me. The one in the suit kept throwing head head back and rolling her eyes as our pastor spoke about marriage. Some people should just show up for the party. And she practically had her head down the front of the bridesmaids dresses as they walked by. Especially the early developed 15 year old.
