We most certainly can say that the Church opposes it and that they should follow the Church! If we’re not saying that, then I suspect there’s something wrong with the method with which we’ve prioritized our identities and agendas.We can’t know how a neutral law - say, one that would allow it to be used for family members - would be abused.
It’s the secular grounds for opposition that are important here. We’d be trying to influence politicians of all (or no) faiths to oppose a law contrary to our faith. We just can’t say that the Church opposes it and that they should follow the Church.
Thank God those 12 Jewish fisherman weren’t afraid to bring their Christian identity into politics for fear that they’d be dismissed as religious loons.
