===Enough is Enough rally=== Destiny Church has campaigned for a return to what it considers to be "Christian [[morality|moral]] values" in New Zealand society, particularly for the "sanctity of [[marriage]] between a husband and wife".{{Citation needed|date=June 2009}} In August 2004, Destiny members marched on Parliament under their "Enough is Enough" rally which drew 5000 protesters against [[Civil unions in New Zealand|civil unions]] legislation. The rally attracted considerable criticism. The black T-shirts and track-pants worn by many of the marchers prompted negative comparisons with [[Nazi]] [[Sturmabteilung|storm-troopers]] in the New Zealand media.<ref>"March arouses Nazi fears".

''Dominion Post''. 24 August 2004.</ref> When the rally was in progress, Tamaki indicated that he did not want to be a politician, saying, "I have a higher calling than a politician, I am a man of God."<ref name="TVNZ_451171"/> A second march occurred in Auckland along with the Christian Life Centre and the City Impact Churches on 5 March 2005.<ref>{{cite news |title=Auckland civil union march noisy but peaceful |url=http://www.nzherald.co.nz/nz/news/article.cfm?c_id=1&objectid=10113730 |agency=NZPA |work=[[The New Zealand Herald]] |date=5 March 2005 |accessdate=4 June 2012 |archive-date=19 December 2013 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20131219020102/http://www.nzherald.co.nz/nz/news/article.cfm?c_id=1&objectid=10113730 |url-status=live }}</ref>
