It's ironic: a movement that has very few children desperately wants the state to impose their morality on everyone else

It's not just morally suspect to enlist the state in service to your religious beliefs about the nature of marriage, it's also practically insane for a self extinguishing minority estimated at no more than 2% of the population to demand that the state do so.
How long do these fools think they are going to remain fashionable? If history teaches us anything its that small heterodox minorities get crushed and slaughtered by powerful states. Rational minorities buttress the libertarian institutions and philosophies that defend everyone's right to do as they please not the majoritarian institutions of state supremacy and coercion.

But nobody ever said modern so called "liberals" were rational. God help them every one.
