Today the sacred nature of marriage between a man and a woman is at risk. The supreme court ruled that same-sex marriage is legal in California, allowing schools to now teach our children that same-sex marriage is acceptable. In an article under the latest news Oct 11th, on http://www.protectmarriage.com/, it talks about how first graders, in San Francisco, were taken on a field trip to city hall to see a same-sex marriage. Later in the article it reads:
["Prop. 8 protects our children from being taught in public schools that 'same-sex marriage' is the same as traditional marriage," said Santa Ana Unified School District board member Rosemarie "Rosie" Avila. "We should not accept a court decision that results in public schools teaching our kids that gay marriage is okay. That is an issue for parents to discuss with their children according to their own values and beliefs. It shouldn't be forced on us against our will," Avila added]
Prop 8 states that: "Only marriage between a man and a woman is valid or recognized in California." This will not affect the existing laws for same-sex couples in California to have marriage-related benefits. To learn more about prop 8 please visit http://www.protectmarriage.com/
Please join us on Nov. 4th by voting YES on Prop 8 to protect marriage and for us as parents to have the right to teach our children the values and beliefs that we know to be true.
