For the next little while, California's Proposition 8 (created to preserve traditional marriage) will dominate my blog. It is a key issue in the November election and with Connecticut's Supreme Court legalizing same gender marriage, it is clear that this issue is a national issue.







I will vote "YES" on prop 8 and hope that all California residents will do the same.


If you live outside California, there are things you can do. I have created a list below:


1. Write to your congressmen and express your support for traditional marriage. Click here to send an email now!


2. Talk to your friends, family members, and neighbors and encourage them to get involved.


3. Donate money to support the "YES on Prop 8" campaign. Click here for a link to the protect marriage website for details.



I am reminded of the words of Isaiah: "Woe unto them that call evil good, and good evil; that put darkness for light, and light for darkness; that put bitter for sweet, and sweet for bitter!" (Isaiah 5:20). We are living in the last days, and the opposition to Prop 8 is calling evil good and good evil.

I was browsing blogs and found yours. I was born and raised in CA then moved in 2001 and even back then the state was trying to make same sex marriage legal. I can't believe that it is STILL going on. Thats just wrong. I so agree with you about evil things to look good and the other way around. Even to the point that it comfuses the church members. It is so sad what is happening to the world in these days. Sign of the times.

Thanks Judi! It's nice to know that I'm not alone in my support of Prop 8.
