Horton cases). (Photo credit: Wikipedia ) February 26, 2015 ( LifeSiteNews.com ) -- A vast majority of Americans want the government to stay out of their personal affairs when it comes to defining marriage and how they conduct their work lives or businesses, a new survey says. And a great majority also oppose the idea of the Supreme Court forcing the entire country to accept marriage redefinition. Eighty-one percent of Americans agree with the statement, “ Government should leave people free to follow their beliefs about marriage as they live their daily lives at work and in the way they run their businesses,” according to a  survey  commissioned by the Family Research Council (FRC) and the National Religious Broadcasters (NRB). The poll breakdown also showed that 80 percent ...
