Vote YES on Prop. 8

http://www.millennialstar.org/2008/10/09/elder-ballard-asks-church-members-to-step-up-involvement-for-prop-8/

Please see the url address above. The church has asked us to take a stance on this issue. Please stand with us and vote YES on Prop. 8!!!

*Failure to pass Proposition 8 will hurt children*

If gay marriage remains legal, public schools will put it on equal footing with traditional marriage. Children will likely receive “age appropriate” information about sexual relations within heterosexual and homosexual marriages.



*Failure to pass proposition 8 will hurt Churches*

The court’s decision will inevitably lead to conflicts with religious liberty and free speech rights. Society will become more and more hostile to traditional beliefs about marriage and family.



*Unless Proposition 8 passes, California society will soon undergo a profound change in its basic understanding of marriage and family life* That will affect everyone in numerous ways. Over time, greater acceptance of nontraditional marriage will be demanded of all people. This could impact the ability of any religion to teach and practice its beliefs.



*Proposition 8 will not hurt gays*

· In California, the law provides for marriage-related benefits to be given to civil unions and domestic partnerships. Proposition 8 does not diminish these benefits.

PLEASE spread the word. Post it on the sidebars of your blog, link to my blog if you don't want to write about Proposition 8. Please do your part as this affects everyone. Not just Californians.
