Prop 8: In defense of the teachings of the Savior

Friends and family, we want to let you know that we stand to protect marriage as it is ordained by God. It is important that we all realize the importance of this moral issue. Prop 8 defines marriage as being between a man and a woman. The Proclamation to the Family also states this. We do not wish to take away the agency of our brothers and sisters or pass judgement on their actions. But, we must not allow immoral actions to be recognized as valid.
The validation of gay marriage will result in the taking away of our rights to believe what we believe. Make no mistake, satan supports gay marriage and will use it as a tool to take away our religous freedom. The next initiative if prop 8 does not pass will be to sanction churches who will not marry same sex couples. Then they will teach gay marriage as a norm in schools. We have the right to believe that same sex marriage is immoral. Please stand with us and vote yes on prop 8.
