Family and Friends....
The time is coming when we will have to vote on some important issues for our state and country. One of the issues is Proposition 8. This proposition is extremely important for all of us. If you do not know much about it...please go to www.protectmarriage.com to learn more about it. We will be voting to keep traditional marriage..marriage between a man and woman. This is not a proposition that will take away any rights from anybody who is gay. They will be able to keep the rights that they already have. However, if marriage is redefined to include same sex couples, it could mean losing our rights as parents and our religious freedom. By law, we will have to accept the changes that will occur because of it. Already in Massachusettes, they have the same-sex law and it is causing grevious consequences. A parent was arrested when he went to the school to simply ask that he be informed beforehand that his KINDERGARTENER was going to be taught and receive a book containing same sex marriage. That's all he wanted.
A catholic adoption agency had to close because the state was after them for not placing children in same-sex marriage homes.
With our strong belief that marriage is ordained of God and that it is to only be as He had instucted..(between a man and woman) Churches such as ours will appear to be "discriminitive" and will likely be punished.
I am not a very political person...(although I should be!) But this will affect what I value most in my life. My family and my religion. As a mother, I want to teach my children what is true and right. I do not want those rights taken away. I do not want the government teaching my children what they think is okay. PLEASE! PLEASE! VOTE YES ON PROPOSTION 8!
