Do republicans think it is wrong for the federal gov. to define the role of marriage as being between a man?

and a woman? What about the federal governments laws concerning marijuana, rape, slavery, etc; should the federal government just make no laws at all?Do republicans think it is wrong for the federal gov. to define the role of marriage as being between a man?
Considering that ';Republicans'; have helped to grow this massive government, the answer would be no.





CONSERVATIVES think that government should be as small as possible. Conservatives think that the people of the states should determine the laws that affect them, with few laws belonging to the feds.Do republicans think it is wrong for the federal gov. to define the role of marriage as being between a man?
Yes. That is an issue that should be left to the states. Same with marijuana and rape laws. Your inclusion of slavery and about not making any laws at all does not show a very high level of intellectual honesty. The federal government does not need to be involved in all levels of governance. Some laws apply to all the states, to all citizens, for example voting age, suffrage, citizenship, abolition of slavery, etc. Other laws are unique for the separate states to legislate for or against.
No. Republicans have historically been for one man and one woman in marriage. And why shouldn't they? That's how it has most commonly been throughout all of recorded history. Your question makes little sense to me because of your wording of it. The second part looks like a big jumble to me.
Abolition of slavery should be an amendment. You cant say all men are created equal and then have slaves.


As for everything else, it should be up to the states like the 10th amendment says.
The U.S. Constitution spells out the proper role for the federal government. I recommend that you read it.
i guess you think its OK if i want to marry a telephone pole?
