They will be ignored, just as in Massachusetts.

The judges in CA will legalize “gay marriage”, regardless of what the people want.

They will torture the Federal Constitution to do it, if they have to.

I’d leave the Muzzies out of the coalition. I don’t want to ever be their ally in any endeavor.

Just a bunch of intolerant, bigoted, mindless followers of an imaginary G-d, attempting to control the lives of honest caring loving pederasts.

The enemy of my enemy is my friend. Coalitions come and go without compromising standards if one is careful. To the extent Muslims can see their common interest in respecting all religious points of view, I would call that progress.

Wait a minute I thought Mitt Romney single-handedly instituted gay marriage in Massachusetts. At least that is what everybody on Freeper tells me.

If they really want to have some hope of success, they need to be able to come up with how failure of this propostion will stop heterosexuals from marrying. After all, if this is a “fight to preserve marriage”, then they’ll have to show how this will stop straight people from finding each other, marrying, and starting families together.

If God can build the world in seven days. He can stop these yahoos if we work hard to ask him to and to do the foot work to stop them. God is awesome and so are we when we align our will with His.

They don’t have to do anmything of the sort. Marrige has one definition that serves our society. Any attempt to blur that definition is in fact an attack on the institution of marrige itself for the purpose of destroying it. (Which in fact is what they are trying actually to do)

I seem to remember a brief mention in a local paper regarding the wording of this proposition. Something about how votes can easily be misconstrued into the opposite of what you really meant to vote for. Anyone else heard that or have the prop available for scrutiny?

I was raised in a conservative evangelical church and always have held strong beliefs about my Christian faith, despite not having lived up to my ideals as much as I should have.

In my younger years I spent many hours arguing with those of other faiths about the exclusive truthfulness of Christianity. I still believe that Jesus Christ is “the Way, the Truth, and the Life,” and that no one comes to the Father but through Him.

I always believed that doctrinial purity was paramount: especially the doctrine of salvation by faith. Belief in salvation by works was, of course, a grave error.

However, I have also come to realize the meaning of Jesus’ words: “Why do you call me Lord and do not do as I say?”
Also, in Romans we read about those who, not having heard the truth, obey the Law of God that is written on their hearts. We very nearly suspended our proud belief in the full inspiration of Scripture when it came to the book of James with its teaching that “Faith without works is dead.”

Obedience is at the heart of the Gospel and what it means to be a Christian. The moral teachings of Christianity are not “optional.” Gay marriage is nothing less than the strategm of the evil one to destroy marriage.

When I hear of those of other faiths standing up for the Divine moral order as expressed in human sexuality and marriage, I am strangely warmed. Whether they fully realize it or not, they have decided to stand for God’s Truth on this vital issue in the face of powerful and evil forces opposed to His moral order.

While I have no intention of compromising my faith, I must acknowledge this fact, express my appreciation, and hope and believe that God also takes note of all those who stand for His Truth.

The definition of even heterosexual marriage has been changing over the last few centuries. Instead of being a contract for property between two families, it has evolved into a farce. And most people today can live with that, in some form or another.

Marriage has morphed into another voluntary relationship, that really resembles friendship in many ways. And straight society has countenanced that for quite some time now. They're not going to build the firewall here.
