I Propose "Prop Two" for California - Outlawing Adultery and Divorce

Marriage is between a man and a woman, exclusively, for life. It's in the Bible. I propose Prop Two, a California Ballot Initiative, to criminalize adultery and divorce. Because:




How many signatures do we need to get it on the ballot?

We can't selectively apply Biblical law, everyone must obey!

Once did he mention homosexuality.

"What God has joined together, let no man put asunder."

He never mentioned homosexuality and only mentioned divorce once.

However, he did come out in favor of insider trading and embezzlement -- so, go for it.

Sorry if you didn't catch that.

of destroying marriage on our own, that's for sure!

If some people in CA have to live under Biblical dictates, then all people should have to.

:grr:

do you want to punish us? Remember the equal rights amendment years ago that Reagan struck down? No one, other than feminist women, seemed to be all upset, including gay men, that he did that. If we brought the ERA back it would cover not only women and minorities but gays too. Maybe it's time to strike the bigoted, xenophobic RW where it will hurt them, permanently, while we have a bi-racial President who is sensitive to these issues. Also, be careful what you wish for. Not being able to end a marriage that didn't work out is a very unpleasant situation regardless of your sexual orientation. I know. I was born in a country that forbids divorce. I don't want to go into a bunch of personal family history here but some of the ramifications extended far beyond the married couples in question.

But the prisons are overflowing as it is.

Far from it.

if we ALL can not get married if we so choose, then no one should..nt

partnership rights. If the religiosos want a marriage ceremony, let them do it in their churches with no ties to the government. This way gay friendly churches could perform ceremonies without any government interference for cultural and commitment reasons.

...voted YES on Prop H8. They want defense of marriage? Then take away their right to divorce.

:hi:

No divorce and adultery as a crime.

We must protect the sanctity of marriage.

The right to happiness be damned!

because the gays have the right to be miserable too?

Let's just have civil unions with a 5-year expiration date. Every five years you get to reevaluate your decision. The state determines child support percentages from both bio-parents' income, and joint custody is always law, except in cases of documented abuse.

And farmers who grow two crops in one field.

And people who don't observe the Sabbath. Which is rightly on Saturdays.

if CA is going to observe religious wingnuttery, they can't leave out ANY of "Leviticus's Greatest Hits"

watching West Wing clips. What a great show that was.

when I went looking for that clip I spent too much time watching all the clips I could find.

Maybe I need to let my family know that the dvd collection would be a gift that would make me very happy.

(is is out on dvd?)

I would love to have the entire DVD collection. (Though, I don't know that it's out on DVD. Seems like it would be, though.)

Edit: Had to go look. It is on DVD, and Overstock has the full collection!

Of course, we will need ways of monitoring and enforcing.

LOL! Cut off the favored hand as enforcement. LOL!

Poly-cotton blend, I rebuke thee! :rofl:

Fuck these people.

lol

Orthodox Jews, and probably some Buddhists, Sikhs and even atheist misogynists and assorted other crazies on your side. Be careful what you ask for.

It is ironic that those who say they want to protect marriage never consider outlawing divorce, or making it harder to get married.

transportation available to them, so creating this one narrow restriction isn't really a big thing.

It's entirely in keeping with the wording of the ruling yesterday

if you ain't crankin' out the young'uns, you ain't got a real marriage.

I know this sounds bad, but there's a little bit of "Ed McMahon" in all of us dudes.

:eyes:

Seriously, how about a Proposition making Prop H8 null and void instead?
