Mike Huckabee and Rick Santorum Sign Pledge Branding Same-Sex Parents ‘Destructive’ And ‘A Threat To Security’: VIDEO

June 23, 2015 by Michael Fitzgerald

GOP presidential hopefuls Rick Santorum and Mike Huckabee have signed a pledge that describes same-sex parents as “unconscionable…destructive..[and] a threat to security”, reports Pink News.

The pledge was written by Texas pastor Rick Scarborough who last week said he is willing to “burn to death” in his fight against same-sex marriage.

The pledge states:

“Conferring a moral and legal equivalency to any relationship other than marriage between a man and a woman, by legislative or judicial fiat, sends the message that children do not need a mother and a father.

“As a policy matter, such unions convey the message that mums and dads are completely irrelevant to the well-being of children.

“Such a policy statement is unconscionable and destructive. Authorizing the legal equivalency of marriage to same-sex couples undermines the fundamental rights of children and threatens their security, stability, and future.

“A decision purporting to redefine marriage flies in the face of the Constitution and is contrary to the natural created order.

“As people of faith we pledge obedience to our Creator when the State directly conflicts with higher law. We respectfully warn the Supreme Court not to cross this line.”

Back in April, Santorum said that his opposition to the 2003 Supreme Court decision striking down anti-gay “sodomy” bans is proof of his strength of leadership.
