About Proposition 8

Proposition 8 is simple and straightforward. It contains the same 14 words that were previously approved in 2000 by over 61% of California voters: “Only marriage between a man and a woman is valid or recognized in California.”

Because four activist judges in San Francisco wrongly overturned the people’s vote, we need to pass this measure as a constitutional amendment to restore the definition of marriage as between a man and a woman.

Voting YES on Proposition 8 does 3 simple things:

• It restores the definition of marriage to what the vast majority of California voters already approved and what Californians agree should be supported, not undermined.

• It overturns the outrageous decision of four activist Supreme Court judges who ignored the will of the people.

• It protects our children from being taught in public schools that “same-sex marriage” is the same as traditional marriage, and prevents other consequences to Californians who will be forced to not just be tolerant of gay lifestyles, but face mandatory compliance regardless of their personal beliefs

Our friends who live in California have told us that church authorities have been holding meetings and telling members how important it is to vote FOR this and to spread the word to anyone and everyone they know. I had no idea how involed the church is in this issue (go to www.preservingmarriage.com). I can only assume that it is so involved because church authorities have forseen the terrible things that WILL happen should this proposition not pass. These are the last days, and I believe that Satan is working harder than ever to thwart God's plan, especially by destroying marriage and families.

If you don't think that this issue involves you, you are wrong. Just because it is based in California doesn't mean that it won't affect the entire nation. If Prop. 8 doesn't pass, it will have a domino effect on the rest of the states. What becomes legit in california will soon become legit elsewhere. I wouldn't be surprised if our church started getting sued for not allowing gay couples to be married in the temple (this sounds far-fetched but i recently read an article about this happening to other churches).

So PLEASE, spread the word about this -- especially to those you know who live in or can vote in California. If you can, DONATE at protectmarriage.com. I don't write about important things very often but this is one of the most important things I will write. Do some research about this and you will realize why I am making such a big deal about it.
