California's Moral Climate Continues To Slip<br>

In a not so suprising but still disappointing step today, California has ruled that limiting marriage to one man and one woman is <a href="http://www.foxnews.com/story/0,2933,150399,00.html" target="_blank">unconstitutional</a>.  This is just the latest in a long series of decisions like this in the state.<br>
<blockquote>A judge ruled Monday that California can no longer justify limiting marriage to a man and a woman, a legal milestone that if upheld on appeal would pave the way for the nation's most populous state to follow Massachusetts in allowing same-sex couples to wed.<br>
<br>
In an opinion that had been awaited because of San Francisco's historical role as a gay rights battleground, San Francisco County Superior Court Judge Richard Kramer said that withholding marriage licenses from gays and lesbians is unconstitutional.<br>
<br>
"It appears that no rational purpose exists for limiting marriage in this state to opposite-sex partners," Kramer wrote.</blockquote><br>
This quote by Judge Kramer is especially disturbing.  I guess he doesn't wish to acknowledge that all children thrive in a traditional family setting, a mother and a father.  God didn't make a mistake when he created Adam and then a help mate for him in Eve.  He didn't give Adam a choice between Eve and Steve.  God as our Creator knows what is best for us.  He created us in His image and through His son Jesus Christ has given us an example of how to live our lives.<br>
<br>
In addition, there have been many studies showing that children who grow up in a homosexual household have a much harder time at school.  For instance, children will be ridiculed for being 'different' on the basis of their 'parents'.  These children are also confused as to why they don't also have a mother and a father and begin to question their own identity.  We must protect our children from this unnecessary pain and confusion.<br>
