The question is whether we should contend for laws and regulations that give this vision of marriage the sanction of government. And to make one more distinction: the question is not whether Christians have the right to promote their views, just like everyone else does, and to support or oppose laws on any grounds they wish, including religious grounds. There’s nothing categorically wrong with supporting laws and politicians who recognize and affirm what marriage actually is, even if your view of marriage is religiously informed. The question, rather, is whether it is still wise to press for American law to recognize only heterosexual unions.]]>Wed, 28 Nov 2012 10:05:04 -0500<![CDATA[Erika Johnsen]]>https://hotair.com/headlines/2012/11/28/is-it-time-for-evangelicals-to-stop-opposing-gay-marriage-n280491
