Government
Promoting the principles of limited government and exposing the burdens of excessive regulation that stifle American ingenuity, creativity, and enterpriseIf the federal government should overpass the just bounds of its authority and make a tyrannical use of its powers, the people, whose creature it is, must appeal to the standard they have formed, and take such measures to redress the injury done to the Constitution as the exigency may suggest and prudence justify- Alexander Hamilton, Federalist No. 33
Those who advocate for redefining marriage are increasingly infringing on the religious liberty of Jews, Muslims, Christians, and others who embrace the timeless concept of marriage as the union of one man and one woman to produce and raise children.
As this video by Janet Porter shows, the fundamental issue is not whether the government should recognize same-sex unions, but whether people have the right to express their beliefs, religious or otherwise, without being labeled as hateful and without becoming vulnerable to hate crime legislation. Janet’s video raises the question: Is religious freedom at risk in our nation as a result of the government permitting only one perspective on marriage—namely, changing that institution into something it has never been in human history?
