Think of this as the hunger games interpretation of the Bible. Which of course is always best for those who live in the capital, the ones on the proper ground.

ZNPaaneah, the gospel is about preventing God's spiritual judgement. Christians standing up for marriage are about preventing God's temporal judgement as well.
Americans are perhaps worried about the nuclear weapons other countries might have pointed at them. They don't consider whether God has a "nuclear weapon" pointing at them as well (Psalm 64:7).
A thinking and rational person would consider God's judgement to be worse than a nuclear weapon.
So America has two plausible reasons for not addressing this matter, either:
1) God doesn't exist
2) God doesn't care and won't judge
