Election 2008

Personally the debates were are really confusing to me . But if i had to choose a topic to talk about it would be prop 8. I think a marriage should be defined between a man and a woman. Same sex couples will still have the same rights they have now. Leviticus 20:13 "if there is a man who lies with a male as those who lie with a woman, both of them have committed a detestable act; they shall surely be put to death. Their bloodguiltness is upon them.

Future generations will be affected if we don't make a stand they depend on us to make the right choice. children in public schools will have to be taught that same-sex marriage is just as good as traditional marriage. For example in Massachusetts a parent did NOT want their 5 year old child to be taught about homosexual marriage and the courts ruled they have NO rights OPT out and they arrested the parent.(Parker Case-U.S District Judge Mark L. Wolf). The California education code already requires that health education classes instruct children about marriage
(51890) children will be taught that marriage is between any two adults regardless of gender.October ,11th 2008 San Fransisco lesbian school teacher brought her 1st grade class to her lesbian wedding during school class time. its already started in the schools. I would never want my kids or grandchildren to learn about same-sex marriage or be brought into it. I don't feel its right if my daughter or son had the right or option to marry someone of the same-sex.

Churches may be sued or there tax exempt status if they refuse to allow same-sex marriage ceremonies in their religious buildings open to the public.(In New Jersey they sued a Methodist church for not allowing homosexual marriages. The church claimed it was private property and the judged ruled against the church and they LOST their tax exemption status.(Bernstein& pastors vs. Ocean grove Methodists church). Religious adoptions agencies will be challenged by government agencies to give up their long-held right to place children only in homes with both a mother and a father. Catholic charities in Boston already closed its doors in Massachusetts because courts legalized same-sex marriage there. Religions that sponsor private schools with married student housing may be required to provide housing for same-sex couples, even if it counters the church doctrine or risk a law suit.Ministers who preach against same-sex marriages may be sued for hate speech and risk government fines.

The freedom of speech should protect the christian as well as the non christian. I don't think it should be considered hate speech when Christians give evidence from their bible of whats wrong or right. I think hate speech is when you threaten someone about their believes or rights.

I chose this topic because i am a very strong christian. I know at most schools the kids vote No on prop 8 because either there best friend is gay or their brother is and they feel bad on not letting their friends have the rights in getting married with the same sex .But i want to be the soar thumb that sticks out and says what i believe is right.

Vote Yes On Proposition 8!
