Summary

Today we're talking about the "Respect for Marriage Act," which seeks to codify same-sex marriage as a constitutional right, and we'll also discuss the fact that 47 House Republicans actually voted in favor of the bill. We also dive into the main arguments against "gay marriage," both theological and secular, and how straying from God's definition of things like marriage, right and wrong, etc., will inevitably make small government impossible. This is because when a society refuses to acknowledge an authority higher than mankind, government will become that authority (or try to, at least). --- Today's Sponsors: Good Ranchers guarantees meat that is born, raised, & harvested right here in the U.S. Every cut is aged to perfection, and every box is superior in quality, flavor, & value!

this respect for marriage act that codifies what is typically referred to as gay

So you will hear me say a few times so called gay marriage or gay unions or

0:51.6
