I kind of think some of those opposed to the ERA probably can't even articulate why they are opposed.
I am convinced that was true in the 70s with the men who were warning against ERA, be they Church Apostles or the priesthood guy down the street.
There are 2 Gods. One who created us. The other you created. The God you made up is just like you-thrives on flattery-makes you live in fear.

Believe in the God who created us. And the God you created should be abolished.

I don't see how it's any different today.

I guess, for me, the difference is that I haven't been LDS since soon after the decision against children of gay parents, so I am no longer subject to having those kinds of discussions with LDS people, thus I don't see it now.
