We disagree, I do believe the government has a role in upholding morality, you do not. I don't believe the federal government has that constitutional authority, so we agree there. I do think that states and local governments do have it.

You're a Jew, so obviously you won't accept my reasons.
That's not helping your argument, btw.
Since you phrased it that way, I don't think it does violate the NAP. But in terms of benefits and certain property protections, you do understand the reasoning behind civil unions and/or gay marriage?

I base my arguments on my Christian faith, which he won't accept as legitimate arguments since he is Jewish.
