REFERENDUM 71

| October 22, 2009 9:00 PM

Voting no on referendum 71 is a vote against granting same-sex couples the same rights that husbands and wives now have. Our founding fathers acknowledged God in many of our founding documents, including the Declaration of Independence. It says we are endowed by our Creator with certain unalienable rights. Our Creator, God, who gave us these rights also gave us a book of rules to live by, called The Bible. Satan, the devil, deceived Adam and Even in the Garden of Eden, which was most likely in present day Iraq, to disobey God, when He told them not to eat of the tree of knowledge of good and evil. They ate of the forbidden fruit, and sin came to mankind. In God’s rule book, in 1 Corinthians 6:9, in the New American Standard Bible, it tells us that homosexual will not inherit the kingdom of God. We can’t stop them from living in sin, but we don’t have to put our blessing on their lifestyle by approving of it. MANBLA, the Man-Boy Love Association, is pushing for the “right” of men to make love with boys. Please vote no on Referendum 71. Thank you.
