Louie Gohmert Defends Prop 8: Nature Likes 'The Idea Of An Egg And A Sperm Coming Together'
WASHINGTON -- Hours after a federal appeals court declared California's same-sex marriage ban unconstitutional Tuesday, Rep. Louie Gohmert (R-Texas) slammed the notion that marriage could be anything other than between a man and a woman.
"The court, as I understand it today, struck down a law that said marriage is between a marriage and a woman. It's interesting that there are some courts in America where the judges have become so wise in their own eyes that they know better than nature or nature's God," Gohmert said on the House floor.
"Nature seemed to like the idea of an egg and a sperm coming together because of pro-creation," he continued. Drawing a parallel to Iowa Supreme Court justices who ruled in favor of same-sex marriage in 2009, he said, "Apparently they thought the sperm had far better use some other way biologically, combining it with something else."
