I care about all children throughout time.
Then tell us how denying marriage to same sex parents benefits their children.
Because the courts have gone to elaborate detail on how your proposal hurts and humiliates children:
Windsor v. US said:"And it humiliates tens of thousands of children now being raised by same-sex couples. The law in question makes it even more difficult for the children to understand the integrity and closeness of their own family and its concord with other families in their community and in their daily lives.....
....DOMA also brings financial harm to children of same-sex couples. It raises the cost of health care for familiesby taxing health benefits provided by employers to their workers’ same-sex spouses. And it denies or re-duces benefits allowed to families upon the loss of a spouseand parent, benefits that are an integral part of family security. "
You've already admitted there's no benefit to these children in denying marriage to their same sex parents. And the courts have affirmed the tremendous harm your proposals cause children.
Yet you're fixated on hurting these kids if it lets you hurt gays. Um, why?
