I’m glad that somebody noticed. I also contributed to pass Prop. 8 in California & I think that I donated money to pass Florida's Constitutional Amendment which almost passed by a 2-1 margin banning people who think that they are gay from marrying others who also think that they are gay.<br /><br />I am so glad that Prop 102 passed last November & that Prop 8 also passed in California after judicial fiat forced California voters to amend their own Constitution. It was ridiculous that it was even allowable for the California Supreme Court to review the Constitutionality of the Amendment once it was passed. An amendment to a constitution cannot be unconstitutional because it supersedes any previously stated laws or statutes!<br /><br />I hope that sooner or later we can finally get a marriage amendment passed to the United States Constitution banning gay marriage because homosexual conduct is so abhorrent. But I would also be happy with federal, state & local governments getting out of the marriage business altogether which seems to just be a way for the government to try and dictate behavior and change tax policy. I truly believe that marriage is a three person partnership: between man, woman & God. And the government needs to stop trying to play God and marrying people. Since the government doesn't baptize people, it shouldn't be marrying people either. In the meantime, fighting against so-called "gay marriage" is a must.<br /><br />Maybe one day we can start helping people who think that they are gay overcome the psychological problem which plagues them but that the American Psychological Association stopped classifying as a sexual disorder. Until that day, I hope you all the best & I’m sure we will meet again at the next social battle over what is acceptable human behavior.Judicialhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06543886623235399878noreply@blogger.com
