Uh, and this is a problem because...?

Elder Lance B. Wickman, an attorney for The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints and a member of the Quorum of the Seventy, says of the court case challenging Proposition 8, "Perry [the plaintiff] seeks a court declaration that, as a matter of law, religious views may not be used to justify the denial of a social civil right. Stated differently, they essentially claim that the voters, from whom all authority in a democracy flows, may not consider religious views and values when deciding these alleged social and cultural civil rights."



Did I miss something? This sounds like standard separation of church and state to me.
