Proposition 8

Proposition 8 will be on the ballot on November 4, 2008 in California. Thanks to liberal judges which made an outrageous ruling a short while ago,overruling the decision to deny gay marriage, gay "couples" are now allowed to be married in California. Proposition 8 calls to make an amendment to make the rights of marriage solely for a man and a woman and take back what was already in place, not by man, but by God. We have a similar bill in Pennsylvania which needs be voted on to give a definition to marriage as being between a man and a woman. Unfortunately opposing politicians continue to play games in order to prevent a vote from taking place. Please call your PA state representatives and tell them you support SB 1250. This is critical for the morality of our nation. Some will say it is hatred towards those that are "different", but it protects the rights of the majority and protects your religious freedoms. We must prevent the movement to allow same-sex couples to be legally married. According to The First Presidency and Council of the Twelve Apostles of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, "The family is ordained of God. Marriage between man and woman is essential to [God's] eternal plan. [We] warn that the disintegration of the family will bring upon individuals, communities, and nations the calamities foretold by ancient and modern prophets. We call upon responsible citizens and officers of government everywhere to promote those measures designed to maintain and strengthen the family as the fundamental unit of society" (The Family: A Proclamation to the World).
