Spiritual Tour Guide
Just wanted to pass this info on to anyone, like myself, who might have missed this going on in the news. Its another example of a religious group trying to gain control within the government so they can tell everyone who lives here what they can and can't do. Here is a sugguestion to you controlling pin headed inbread monkeys. Leave the preaching and brain washing where it belongs, in your churches. That way the only people being damaged by your crap will be you and your children....
Mormons:
''We ask that you do all you can to support the proposed constitutional amendment by donating of your means and time to ensure that marriage in California is legally defined as being between a man and a woman,'' church leaders say in the letter.
''Our best efforts are required to preserve the sacred institution of marriage.''
California Mormons -- there are more than 750,000, according to a church almanac -- have heard and heeded similar calls from their leaders before.
In 2000, a letter from the pulpit asked members to give time and money in support of Proposition 22, a ballot measure defining marriage in California as between one man and one woman. It passed with 61% percent of the vote.
The LDS church also fought same-sex marriage legislation in other states during the 1990s. As recently as 2006, it signed a letter to Congress seeking an amendment to the U.S. Constitution that would define marriage as being between a man and a woman.
