Pro-family is anti-LGBT only incidentally as a conceptual consequence. It is not as if pro-family was some invention confected just to stick it to the gays. According to natural law theory, the family (traditionally understood) is the basic unit of society, the rest of society and the human race functioning as the extended family ("natural" here means entailed by human nature; we can do all sorts of unnatural things, but they are harmful to us and do not help us in genuinely flourishing as human beings as conformity with nature does). The only reason something like "pro-family" has become a term is because the natural family has become the target of ideological attack.
- trasz 5y ago“Pro-family” is an euphemism used pretty exclusively by religious extremists to condone homophobia. Well, sometimes also to draw attention away from the fact their role models are child rapists. If anything, the anti-LGBT actions are against the family: their only purpose is to make life harder for LGBT families.
