Our representatives in government are there to speak for the people. Why should We the People not have the right to representation on what is right and wrong in regards to sexuality in public, and issues of raising children?
The People have every right to be in the business of determining right and wrong in regards to these issues.
The people who claim that the government should just get out of the marriage business are basically just calling for anarchy in regards to public sexuality and the raising of children.
I never argued against representation. They should be there to fight off those that would infringe upon the sovereignty of their community, not to impose their community’s beliefs on others.
Is your argument that government or “The People” should be telling you how to raise your children?
People these days are trying to rule from the top down, rather than the bottom up. You are responsible for yourself and your family, first, no one else. Then you have the community, etc. You argue for mob rule at the national level. That argument will get you exactly the opposite of what you want.
