Gay Rights: An Oligarchy Of 1%

Faith and Freedom Network Blog: Gay Rights: An Oligarchy Of 1%

Oligarchy is a form of government where most political power rests with a small segment of society. Generally that segment is defined by its wealth or its military strength. Or both. According to a Gallup survey out this week, less than 1%---.8% of Americans are part of a same-sex couple. The same survey finds only that only .3% of US adults are "married" to a same-sex spouse and a mere .5% identify as being in a same-sex domestic partnership. Yet this less than 1% is driving the national debate and narrative, demanding our courts redefine marriage, education revise curriculum, business restructure business models, the names on public restrooms be changed to accommodate gender confusion, and certain Scripture and biblical teaching be updated or deleted to accommodate and celebrate their sexual behavior.
