From Alan Sears of the Alliance Defense Fund:

"œWhile Rome Burns," Radical Activists ONCE AGAIN Use Time of National Disaster to Advance Their Agenda"¦

Last week, in light of the tragic events in Louisiana, Mississippi, and the entire Gulf Coast area, we joined in the call for prayer for victims of Hurricane Katrina. We also added a note of caution:

I wrote: "œTragically, through the years, we have seen radical organizations use times of national tragedy to attempt to advance their agenda. We pray that no one will exploit the plight of those who have lost loved ones, who have been displaced, who have seen their homes lost and friends devastated, for personal or ideological gain. Please be assured that ADF, with God´s grace, will continue to remain vigilant and stand guard for religious freedom, the sanctity of life, marriage, and the family in the days and weeks ahead."

Unfortunately, the radical activists in California´s legislative body have done it again.

Remember, it was on September 12, 2001 when they shoved through a state "œdomestic partnership" law that granted homosexual "œcouples" virtually all of the same rights as married couples. They accomplished this while the rest of the world was focused on aiding the thousands of families grieving their losses from the terrorist attack on America and restoring basic services to Manhattan. Once again, their "œtiming" was impeccable.

On September 1, 2005, just days after Hurricane Katrina unleashed her wrath on New Orleans and the Gulf Coast - once again while the rest of America focused on emergency assistance - radical advocates of homosexual behavior in the California State Senate rammed through AB849, which changes California law to allow marriage between "œtwo persons" instead of "œa man and a woman." Assemblyman Mark Leno (D-San Francisco) amended an unrelated marine research bill already in committee to sneak same-sex "œmarriage" through. This is just another example of the contempt by radical activists for the will of Californians, who voted by a 61-39% margin in 2000 to enact Proposition 22 which affirms marriage in California as between one man and one woman. California courts have clearly held, under the state´s constitution, that such propositions override the legislature as the clearest and most direct expression of the will of the people.

You can be assured that ADF will be in the forefront of the continuing legal battle to defend and protect the will of the people and affirm traditional marriage in the Golden State.
 
The California Assembly became the first US state legislature to legalize "same sex marriages" by a vote of 41 to 35 on September 6, 2005. The bill was called the Religious Freedom and Civil Marriage Protection Act. :banghead::pray2:
 
TuPac and Dr. Dre sang in 1996, "California, knows how to party, keep it rockin, rockin, rockin". I'm actually surprised that it took this long for california to join, being that they are after Massachusets and Connecticut.

Now we will have Constitutional schizoprenia. I wonder if the spouses of homosexual citizens will be allowed to file for immigration benefits? If the Federal Government denies them, then the marriage is no longer valid, if the Federal government approves them, then yikes.
 
So what's up with California? I thought that there were at least a few public referendums that trounced this issue at various times in the past few years.
Doesn't the any of that matter? What gives?

September 6, 2006 -- Newswire Report -- An incredibly violent 13.6 Richter scale earthquake has struck California completely off guard and has decimated its coastal cities from Los Angeles to Oakland. The fault rupture has completely severed the land west of the San Andreas fault from the mainland, leaving much of the coastal cities under the Pacifc. What is left of San Francisco is now a barren Pacific island. Casualty reports are innumerable. Jerry Falwell and Pat Robertson have proclaimed this to be the judg...
