I think we agree the Constitution requires us to apply the protection of the law equally. Equal protection is a process, not a moral code.
Does the Constitution require us to reject laws on the basis of their codifying religious beliefs? Of course not.
Does equal protection under the law require us to be blind to the fact that heterosexual coupling produces children? Of course not.

"Does equal protection under the law require us to be blind to the fact that heterosexual coupling produces children?"I can walk out of my front door and knock on the doors of four heterosexual married couples who either can't or won't have children...I guess they shouldn't be allowed to marry?

Well said ... equal protection is a process, not a result.
You need to work forward from the process to the result.

The gay activists would say 'yes'.
