Proposition 8

[pegkerr]

Post this on your blog if you're in a heterosexual marriage and you don't want it to be "protected" by the bigots who think that gay marriage cheapens or hurts it somehow.

Is this a surprise to any of you? If you've been paying attention for the past--geeze--six years I've been keeping this journal, no, probably not.

Please let Proposition 8 not pass. Please, please, please.

I will probably call my mother-in-law today who lives in California. Don't think I have any worries there, though.

Cool. Glad to hear it. And it is always a pleasure to meet a fellow UU, although I can't claim to regularly attend.

In the case of this one particular church, his elderly mother accidently brought home a call script which was not supposed to leave the property. He found it and was appalled. Enough so, that he wondered if he should steal it and send it into the state authorities. I don't know how that ended up working out since he is too ill to send many e-mails these days.

It has got to be just awful for him. Both have health issues which are likely to kill them relatively soon. My friend has slightly better odds of outliving his mom, but not by much. And she is spending her meager time and energy working to promote Prop Hate. He's been openly gay for thirty years. She thinks that is a terrible choice and wishes it could be beaten out of him. I find her views mind-boggling.
