Reality TV star Josh Duggar, of 19 Kids and Counting is a hero to the far Christian right, who see him as an anti-choice and anti-gay icon. He is also the executive director of Family Research Council Action – the political action arm of the anti-gay hate group. Sunday, after speaking at the National Organization For Marriage‘s anti-gay marriage hate rally, CNS News interviewed Duggar about this week’s Supreme Court marriage case:

“Natural marriage has been clearly defined over the years. Right now in America there is an agenda to silence people of faith, those who hold a dissenting opinion. That’s not what America was founded on. America was founded on respect, tolerance, and really not discriminating against people based on their religious convictions.”

In other words, not allowing Christians to discriminate against gay people is…

“discriminating against people based on their religious convictions.”

Today more than half of the country, 61% of Americans, support marriage equality.

“I think what we have to realize is this is only the beginning of a larger discussion, and what’s really at stake here is the American family. I believe strongly, being the oldest of 19 kids and counting that you know marriage is central to the family and every single child deserves a mother and father. And I’m sure grateful for my parents and I’m grateful for my wife and we have our fourth child on the way due in July, and I think it’s just such a blessing when you see family and you see that you can honor each other.”

Nothing against families but, barf. (via The New Civil Rights Movement)
