Not a family?

I have expressed in the past my strong views on the subject of equality. I read an article today about a lobbying firm here in Arizona that is pro-family. That phrase "pro-family" totally confused me. What an odd way to put that only one man and one woman and a child or two is a family. But why would these people think that two men and one child, or two women and a child is not a family?
Is family LESS of a concept to the people who believe in the horribly coined phrase "one man and one woman". Is family really only a mom and a dad to these people still, and not a mom and a mom or a dad and a dad?
I mean when you see a family in the park, a family with gay parents, do you look at them and say "Oh that little boy and his two guardians", or "Why would two men be at a park with a little boy?". I think that is how their brain works.
I honestly try not to be hate monger like these people. I try to just wrap my head around why on earth they would feel this way in the year 2010. I try not to call names or to make assumptions, but I know this group of people well.
These people are in fact anti-family and it is dumbfounding to me, the exaggerated way that these people hate.
I am pro-family. I believe that a family, no matter married, unmarried, with or without children, gay, straight, blue, yellow or purple, is defined by love for one another.
When Mike and I were living together (Yes, before we were engaged OR married, bum bum bummm) I considered him family. I would have done anything for him at the time. If we would have had a child before we were married (yes, out of wedlock, bum bum bummmmm) we would be family.
A ring, a piece of paper, vows do not make a family. Those make a marriage.
Miriam-Webster describes family as: 1 : a group of individuals living under one roof and usually under one head
Do you not see this? Does the bible have a dictionary in it somewhere that I missed throughout all of those years sitting in a pew at Catholic church saying "God says only one man and one woman". Where are you people getting your facts... oh I know... FROM OTHER PEOPLE.
I was taught LOVE people, the best thing of all. The best thing that was ever created or that was ever taught to me by my parents. Equality. Freedom to choose, to be my own person and to MAKE UP MY OWN MIND. Don't let a lobbyist, or an elected official, or anyone besides yourself tell you what you should or should not believe.
Let us work together to stop the hate in our cities, towns, counties, country. Let's give people the facts. "Research studies have consistently shown that children raised by gay and lesbian parents do just as well as children raised by straight parents in all conventional measures of child development, such as academic achievement, psychological well-being and social abilities."
That quote is from the Human Rights Campaign website, and sounds pretty fuckin PRO-Family to me!
