Divorce destroys the sanctity of marriage and its powerful influence on the betterment of society.  This proposition would keep the very meaning of marriage from being transformed into nothing more than a contractual relationship between two adults.  Prohibiting divorce between heterosexual married couples will keep the interests of children and families intact.  We will continue to celebrate marriage as the union of husband and wife, not as a relationship between "Party A" and "Party B."  The marriage of a man and a woman has been at the heart of society since the beginning of time and it promotes the ideal opportunity for children to be raised by a mother and a father in a family held together by the legal, communal, and spiritual bonds of marriage.  As a society we should put the best interests of children first, and those interests lie in traditional marriage.  Permitting divorce destroys marriage as we know it and causes a profound harm to society.  We should be restoring marriage, not undermining it.

And for those of you who voted yes on Prop 8 but disagree with this petition...Why?  This petition is copied and pasted from literature from your website, ProtectMarriage.com, but applied to Divorce instead of Gay Marriage.  So how can you argue with your own words?

A number of vigils and gatherings are happening around California tonight to mourn the passage of Proposition 8 which took away the right for us to marry and for the first time ever wrote discrimination into the California State Constitution. These are taken from the No On Prop 8 web site.

California's Prop 8 is still in the lead and a candlelight vigil is planned tonight at 6:30 on the steps of San Francisco's City Hall where California's same-sex marriages began 4 years ago. 

Though Google said publicly they were against Prop 8, they allowed the Yes on 8 campaign to run a massive ad camapaign on web sites using AdSense which had already blocked yes on 8 ads. Help punish them for supporting anti-gay discrimination by permanently blocking ads from Google AdSense.

"This is not my victory -- it's yours. If a gay man can win, it proves that there is hope for all minorities who are willing to fight."
—Harvey Milk - election night comment to supporters

So, I thought I would just post something.  It's been a while.

I was thinking milk and cookies

Well, it's something. 

I found this as I was stumbling around.  I thought it was funny enough to share.  It's been a great weekend!
