Okay, then perhaps I misread it. But the following passages are some that jumped out at me on my first read, and that's what they said to me.

Global population is not our problem. Our problem is that there are too many people in poor countries, giving too many births to children that will remain poor, and that there are decreasing, over-aging populations in the high developed countries, producing less and lesser offsprings from middle and upper class families with education perpsectives and academic background.
Gay marriages do nothing to even adress these crushing problems.

I'll have to give it another read in more detail.
Edit:
My reading of his comments was probably colored by recent discussions with some folks about the Quiverfull movement. Some of those passages seemed a bit close to what I've seen from that movement.
