I know I repeatedly received information etc. from various evangical groups supporting Prop 8 here in Texas

That's great to know. The lavender mafia was recruiting dollars out of the eastern enclaves of fruits and nuts. Here in California we could see the Mormons and Knights of Columbus were mobilized. But the Southern Baptists, Assembly of God and other fundamentalist churches seemed to be silent on the issue or at best seemed to have only token support. I'm glad to hear that my perception was wrong.

Next time, and there will be a next time, I'd like to see more churches take a more open stand in this cultural war.

The Knights of Columbus have a great leader, Carl Anderson. I wish we had more bishops with his intellect and character.

I think a lot of churches are on the fringe because they don’t want to get involved in a ‘civil rights’ issue—hopefully the news will spread that this is just a cover story for the attack on FREEDOM OF RELIGION that is already underway!!

My prayer is that it isn’t too late for all the churches to connect and try to fight this. I don’t want a world where I have to tell my children that ‘racist, intolerant churches were put out of business by that great President Obama’ when they’re older!! :-O

Not too many southern Baptists in coastal California. There are lots of Assembly of God churches serving the Hispanic and Asian communities, and I know that the Hispanics voted overwhelmingly in favor of Prop 8 (which is why Los Angeles and Imperial Counties voted in favor of the amendment). Since A of G churches are independent, there was probably lots of preaching against it.

Pentecostals don't have a Rome or Salt Lake City (and are all the better for it, IMHO).
