Arizona Attorneys: Since Gays can’t have Children, they shouldn’t Marry

ADF Attorney Caleb Dalton

Arizona attorneys continue the ancient notion that if gay couples can't pro-create, they shouldn't be married.

See here:

Attorneys for the state are telling a federal judge there’s a good reason Arizona won’t let gays marry: They can’t reproduce, at least not without the help of a third person.

Papers filed in federal court defending the ban say voters, in approving the constitutional amendment in 2008, are entitled to “define marriage for their community.” But the lawyers also are arguing to U.S. District Court Judge John Sedwick there’s a public purpose in the state getting into the business of regulating private relationships: Ensuring that children are, whenever possible, raised by a biological mother and biological father.

“Only man-woman couples are capable of furthering the state’s interest in linking children to both of their biological parents,” argued attorneys from the Alliance Defending Freedom. And they said the vast majority of such couples produce their own biological children.

ADF is always in the midst of mess. Why do they think this argument will have weight in the case? Seriously, do they thing this will work?
