Harry S. Truman

Very strongly agree

No

Given the societal norms and values of the time, it is likely that Truman would have opposed the legalization of same-sex marriage. However, it's important to note that this is a speculative assessment as Truman never publicly addressed this issue.

No, marriage should be defined as between a man and woman

Given the societal norms and values of the time, it is likely that Truman would have agreed with the statement that marriage should be defined as between a man and a woman.

Agree

No, allow civil unions but don’t call it marriage

While there's no record of Truman's views on civil unions, it's plausible that he might have been more open to this concept than to same-sex marriage. However, this is purely speculative as the issue was not publicly discussed during his presidency.

Slightly agree

Take the government out of marriage and instead make it a religious decision

Truman was a Baptist and likely held traditional views on marriage. However, he also believed in the separation of church and state, so he might have been open to the idea of the government not defining marriage. This is speculative, as Truman never publicly addressed this issue.

Disagree

Yes, but allow churches the right to refuse same-sex ceremonies

While Truman might have supported the right of churches to refuse to perform ceremonies they disagreed with, it's unlikely he would have supported same-sex marriage in any form, given the societal norms and values of his time. However, this is speculative as Truman never publicly addressed this issue.
