Agree

Yes, but allow churches the right to refuse same-sex ceremonies

Supporting same-sex marriage while allowing churches the right to refuse ceremonies is a position that balances individual liberties with religious freedom. This aligns with limited government principles, as it minimizes government intervention in both personal lives and religious institutions. The score is positive but not strongly so, as it is not a core principle of limited government.

Slightly agree

Yes

Neutral

No, allow civil unions but don’t call it marriage

Allowing civil unions but not calling it marriage is a compromise position that may appeal to some limited government proponents. It provides legal recognition and rights to same-sex couples while preserving the traditional definition of marriage. The score is neutral because this position does not strongly align with or contradict limited government principles.

Disagree

No

Limited government ideology generally opposes government intervention in personal matters. Banning same-sex marriage would be an example of government intervention in personal lives. However, some proponents may still oppose same-sex marriage due to traditional or religious beliefs, so the score is negative but not strongly so.

Disagree

No, marriage should be defined as between a man and woman

Defining marriage as between a man and woman would involve government intervention in personal matters, which contradicts limited government principles. However, some proponents may still support this position due to traditional or religious beliefs. The score is negative but not strongly so, as it is not a core principle of limited government.
