Quote by Keith O'Brien
Same-sex marriage would eliminate entirely in law the basic idea of a mother and a father for every child. It would create a society which deliberately chooses to deprive a child of either a mother or a father.
Summary
This quote expresses the belief that legalizing same-sex marriage would fundamentally change the definition of marriage, undermining the traditional understanding that a child should have both a mother and a father. It argues that by allowing same-sex couples to marry, society would intentionally deny children the presence and influence of either a mother or a father in their lives.
