Yes on Prop 8


Every house on my street has this sign in their yards. Family values and marriage should be taught from the home not from our public schools. I don't remember learning about "Adam and Steve" in school. We will respect everyone but not require our children to learn about others "ideas" on marriage in school. YES on 8! It makes sense.

thanks for this post.

Marriage is our culture’s ultimate expression of equality–it takes one man and one woman to create a family. Even if a marriage can’t have children or choose not to have children the definition of their relationship expresses this equality.

One could see a lesbian union as a marginalization of men, or a homosexual union as a marginalization of women.

I don't believe government should sanction the marginalization of any parent. And even though some families can't have children, or choose not to have children, you can't separate the child-issue from the marriage issue.

there is a great discussion here:

You guys are in our prayers! We really want to see this get passed. My visiting teacher came today and the topic in the Ensign was on Gender. Wonder why? Hum? The school districts should not have the final say in what our children learn and at what age. It is so ridiculous! Good Luck and of course...Don't forget to vote!
