"This sort of marriage is not in the best interest of children." " God has a plan for marriage and this isn't it." "Allowing this kind of marriage will pave the way for all sorts of moral depravity."

Sound familiar? These were comments from the 1960's on the interracial marriage of one man and one woman--Mildred Jeter and Richard Loving

"Promoting hatred and bigotry in the name of God is what destroys society, not the marriage of two loving people of the same gender."
Raymond Miller

"[Their relationship] is essentially different from that of man and wife joined in lawful wedlock." A North Carolina judge, 1858, referring to a marriage between two slaves, unrecognized by the state.

WOW!! That fought was won. So will ours.

Hope?

Rabbi Shmuley Boteach: "...what two gay mend do in the privacy of their bedroom is totally different. Unlike polygamy or incest, no rational person can argue that two men having ****** is going to undermine the legal institution of marriage. Those that do are probably more interested in attackign gays than protecting marriage."

This quote really hit home for me. When I was protesting last Sunday, the Yes on 8 demonstraters were yelling we have sex with children, animals, and other incredibly hateful things. I really wish I had this quote at the rally..

Hope this helps some others find hope.
