    "Mormons mobilize to deprive gays of more rights" from alternet

    Those LDS cretins are trying to expand their attack on the 10%.

    -----------------------------
    On Tuesday, the church sent out an e-mail alerting LDS faithful to a civil unions bill set to go before the Illinois legislature tomorrow. The letter calls on followers to blast legislators with calls and letters opposing the measure.

    Why is the Mormon church so deeply alarmed by civil unions legislation in Illinois? Because it will shatter social mores and crush the innocence of children. Duh.

    According to the letter:

    This bill will legalize civil unions in the state of Illinois and will treat such civil unions with the same legal obligations, responsibilities, protections and benefits as are afforded within marriage. In other words, civil unions will be different in name only from marriage.

    As has already been seen in Massachusetts, this will empower the public schools to begin teaching this lifestyle to our young children regardless of parental requests otherwise. It will also create grounds for rewriting all social mores; the current push in Massachusetts is to recognize and legalize all transgender rights (an individual in Massachusetts can now change their driver's license to the gender they believe themselves to be, regardless of actual gender, which means that confused men and women are now legally entering one another’s bathrooms and locker rooms. What kind of a safety issue is this for our children?).

    Furthermore, while the bill legalizes civil unions, it will be used in the courts to show discrimination and will ultimately lead to court-mandated same-sex marriages.

    The Mormon church recently attracted controversy for spending hundreds of thousands of dollars in its push to pass California’s discriminatory Proposition 8. Critics argued that the church had overstepped its legal bounds by directly interfering in the legislative process (in a state other than Utah, no less). But I guess depriving minorities of fundamental civil rights is too important to leave to the government.

    Just them trying to draw attention away from the recent polygamy scandals in Arizona, Colorado, Utah, and New Mexico.
    Fucking hypocrites.

    In other news: Tucson Unified School District is an 'abstinence only' school district (only birth control that can be discussed in health class) and lo and behold I see more and more fifteen year old girls pushing babies in strollers around town.

    Just to appease the city's Catholic population (many of which are "undocumented immigrants"...and no I'm not a racist, I grew up with my Nicaraguan grandmother!) they can't even mention the word 'condom' in schools. In friggin' Nebraska I had to have an old lady show me how to put a condom on a banana in health class (I also got the abstinence is the only 100% way and had to watch a slide show of STDs), but in AZ that is 'ungodly'.

    Fucking retards=(

    Oh, and they did the same bit with Prop 102 to amend the AZ state constitution to 'protect marriage'. The LDS church paid for a lot of airtime on Spanish-language TV and radio stations to mobilize the Catholic vote.
