"You find as you look around the world that every single bit of progress of humane feeling, every improvement in the criminal law, every step toward the diminution of war, every step toward better treatment of the colored races, or every mitigation of slavery, every moral progress that there has been in the world, has been consistently opposed by the organized churches of the world.”
— Bertrand Russell, Why I Am Not a Christian (1927)

They are worried that low birth rates will lead to white people becoming the minority.

Sure, perhaps, but it’s not something the average person ever thinks about unless it’s pushed into their awareness.
I don’t think that’s the logic. Gay people don’t just go back to having babies because they had some rights removed.
The policy is deeply rooted in the concept of in groups and out groups.
There is no logic.
Maybe we should just ban Christian marriage as a superstitious ritual.
they already goddamn said they’re not touching it, stop.
They said the same about abortion.
