In a profile published in The
Washington Post, Ryan Anderson says the doesn't believe anything
in life, including gay marriage, is inevitable.
Anderson is the 31-year-old
out-of-nowhere activist who challenged
Piers Morgan and Suze Orman on the issue during a televised
townhall discussion on the subject in March.
He's also the author of What is
Marriage? Man and Woman: A Defense, which
he wrote with Robert P. George, a former chairman of the National
Organization for Marriage (NOM).
In
the piece, Anderson said that he opposes gay nuptials because
“There would be no government institution that defends the idea
that children deserve both a mother and a father,” “The
redefinition of marriage won't stop with gay marriage” and “The
impact it could have on religious liberty and rights of conscience
for opponents.”
Anderson
said in the profile, which appeared in the Post's
On Faith section but was written by Religion News Service, that he's
optimistic.
“People
called Marxism, socialism, the Equal Rights Amendment, now abortion
rights inevitable,” he said. “I don't think anything in life is
inevitable.”
