Proposition 8

I’ve committed to raising money for this cause and for taking advantage of as many opportunities as possible for Proposition 8 in California. In a nutshell, Proposition 8 would bar homosexuality to be taught in the classrooms of elementary schools. This is vitally important to the integrity of marriage. This trend for moral decay is rampant and has resulted in our current economic crisis, the disintegration of families, and the failure of homes. Society is built upon individual families, and without strong families built upon strong values (which can only exist in families headed by a father and mother, a man and a woman, lawfully married and fully committed to each other) we will see further crises here at home, on Wall Street, and around the world. This proposition is not against homosexuality. I believe that if someone chooses that lifestyle then I am not one to tell them otherwise. But to educate children regarding this unnatural practice is unethical and morally wrong, no matter how you slice it, for how can such a child (who is undergoing vital stages in development and identity) develop naturally if a trusted adult like a teacher were providing instruction in same-sex relationships? The effects of such instruction would be disastrous, if not confusing to a young child. You cannot have a true family without a man and a woman – it’s physically impossible. Homosexual couples raising children cannot have conceived the child, so how can that be natural or true? Thus, it only makes sense to protect children from such erroneous education. Would it be rational to incorporate teachings of mathematics where 2+2 = 8 or “to run” is not a verb but a conjunction? No – to teach what is false is counter to the mission of education. Likewise, since same-sex marriage cannot be right (how can such a marriage be right when one of the purposes of a marriage is to have children and raise them?), it is entirely illogical to permit such education in any educational system.

Finally, I’m certain someone is going to call me out on my residency. I do not live in California, I have not lived there, nor do I have plans to do so soon. I’m the first to acknowledge such. California, however, is a trend-setting state. Historically, we have seen that laws and policies enacted in California spread relatively quickly to other states. We cannot afford this law to be enacted in any state, especially California, because other states will follow suit. Please inform, invite, and commit with your friends and family to the support of proposition 8.
