Hodges ruling that legalized same-sex &#8220;marriage&#8221; nationwide. Spearheaded by Them Before Us and backed by heavyweights like the Family Research Council, Focus on the Family, and the Colson Center, the initiative asserts that redefining marriage has catastrophically prioritized adult whims over the sacred needs of children\u2014depriving them of the irreplaceable love and guidance from a biological mother and father.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Katy Faust, founder of Them Before Us and campaign spokeswoman, declared: &#8220;Since the redefinition of marriage a decade ago, we\u2019ve seen the consequences: parenthood treated as replaceable, and children deprived of the unique love and guidance only a mother and father can provide.&#8221; She emphasized: &#8220;Ten years of Obergefell have shown us, loud and clear, that children deserve better and that they are Greater Than adult desires.&#8221; Social science underscores that kids thrive best with married, biological parents\u2014the living embodiment of one man and one woman&#8217;s union. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The coalition condemns Obergefell for eroding this foundation, treating parent-child bonds as configurable rather than natural. Newsweek&#8217;s Josh Hammer added: &#8220;Marriage policy should be about the children. It\u2019s not about bestowing public policy legitimacy and conferring economic benefits when it comes to adults who have their own idiosyncratic desires.&#8221; Overturning Obergefell would refocus family law on biology and adoption\u2014legitimate paths uniting children to protective parents. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The three-pronged strategy: Shift policy to parent-child priorities, sway public opinion on harms to kids, and mobilize churches to defend innocence. As Al Mohler noted: &#8220;It harms children in virtually every way imaginable.&#8221; This movement champions the unborn and family sanctity, urging a return to marriage as God&#8217;s design for human flourishing.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>A powerful alliance of 47 conservative organizations has launched the &#8220;Greater Than&#8221; campaign to dismantle the Supreme Court&#8217;s 2015 Obergefell v.
