I don’t think that anti-gay marriage and anti-abortion stances are right wing policies per se. They are Christian conservative policies.

IMO, true right winger has nothing against gay marriages. Anyone can marry anyone else, as long they get their consent. Marry a shoebox if you want to.
That may be true, tehcnically, philosophically, but it's not real. Anti-abortion and Anti-Gay-Marriage are clearly, thoroughly associated with the 'right-wing', and I don't think they mind that. Is there an inherent Christian element to it? Maybe, but I know lots of very non-religious right-wingers who are dead set against abortion/gay marriage, nothing to do with faith/spirituality.
