I read this from the Focus-on-the-Family CITIZENLINK e-mail dated March 16, 2005. The two authors, Dr. Allen Carlson of the Howard Center for Family, Religion and Society and Paul Mero of the
Sutherland Institute argue that the “first chore is to properly define ‘family.'”
Read the description they propose below. The only things that would or could differentiate a straight household from a gay household is that they demand that a family must be defined as a “man and a woman” and procreation. Obviously, a gay “family” must adopt children, but so does a straight “family” comprising an infertile couple. All other aspects described below are absolutely possible whether the family is made up of a straight or gay couple.

“The two are Dr. Allen Carlson of the Howard Center for
Family, Religion and Society and Paul Mero of the
Sutherland Institute. In today’s world, they argue, the
first chore is to properly define “family.”
“(Family is) the union of a man and a woman through
marriage,” Carlson said, “for the purposes of sharing love
and joy, propagating children, providing their moral
education, building a vital home economy, offering
security in times of trouble and binding the generations.”
