My Prop 8 thoughts

I haven't posted any thoughts about prop 8 because I have been thinking a lot about things. We may have won the passing of prop 8, but the battle is far from over. It saddens me to think that The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints is the only one that is being attacked for being in favor. There were several other Churches and people that did not want marriage redefined. Someone shared a letter they got from the No side of prop 8. It stated that prop 8 had nothing to do with religion, that it is a civil issue. I beg to differ. I don't have any kids right now but I have found myself saying that I am glad I don't. I know it makes me sound selfish but I would not want to have my child face today's issues. If Heavenly Father blesses me with a child I would welcome it, but it is so hard to see the things the kids are facing in society today. With that said I found myself thinking that if gay marriage had become legal how would you and could you answer the question where do babies come from? Because you would have to explain their way of having children in their lives. Marriage has a purpose, it is to multiply and replenish the earth and only a man and woman can do that. HELLO! if it wasn't so we would not exist!!! And it is part of God's plan. Society has made it so easy to disregard Morales. I have been also thinking of what people have done with their free agency. If only they could see that the way they are leading their lives, is not great way to go. I am grateful for the gospel in my life and the changes that it has brought in my life. I could not imagine my life without it.
