The scary part about it is, they probably don't believe that is what they're doing at all. I'd wager almost all of the people getting behind this are people who believe that the responsibility of bringing new, functional adults to society is the sole purview of the church.

Ok, so we've just never followed where the first amendment says there will be no national religion
No, we’re too busy furiously masturbating to the second amendment. After all, that’s the only one that counts!
