dear twin, i'm not going to lie, i WAS voting no on prop 8 until a couple days ago. after further reading (like a good catholic should), i realized that this is not an issue of equality and equal rights. the rights that were once unavailable to homosexual couples through civil unions, such as naming your partner as next of kin, are now accessible to those couples. to me, this is an argument about the word "marriage", which was and IS a religious institution, a sacrament, etc. i have no problem with people in civil unions because they aren't recognized by the church anyway. this is about the sanctity of marriage and i wish people would see that no, i'm not a bigot for voting yes. no, i dont hate gay people (i even know of some gay people voting YES). but yes, i do believe in the sanctity of marriage and people are entitled to their own opinions. -twin
