We don't care if NY legalized abortion. We just want the right for Alabama to ban it.

We don't care if California redefines marriage to include same sex couples, we just don't want their definition to be forced on us.

We do believe that there should be a national moral standard, but we believe that it would arise from the states being free to make their own social laws.


You may not care but most evangelicals want social matters defined at the federal level and made into federal law.
