Prop 8 - Did Mormons Go Too Far?

Activists claim that money from the Mormon Church was the deciding factor in passing Proposition 8 in California - banning gay marriage. The church claims to have only spent a few thousand dollars on the campaign, but ANP has uncovered evidence that may expose a gaping hole in that claim. Also, the IRS forbids religious organizations from "substantially" lobbying for political legislation. Did the Mormon Church violate this law?

Chardo85 [[Part 3]]

Therefore I will ask you again for HARD SCIENTIFIC EVIDENCE that being gay is wrong. Faith, the command of a god, a scripture verse, a belief etc, is NOT evidence. Thus you have not given me any hard proof, instead you merely parroted the beliefs of a church. THINK FOR YOURSELF! Don't let a church think for you.

Chadro85 [[Part 2]]

Saying "God said this, god commanded that, god's purpose is this" is not an answer nor evidence. You already have a burden of proof on the subject of homosexuality. By bringing god and his will into the matter, you are only putting a bigger burden on yourself and shifting the subject. If god said child molestation was right that would not make it right. Therefore even if there is a god and he said being gay is wrong, that does not mean that it is wrong.

@SocraticFox didn't i already give it to you in past comments? (like on page 2?)

fear not mormons, u r not alone the other (most) religions share with you in being hatemongers however u do have the monopoly of being racist towards the black community in discriminating against them from full members (in the past) somethng you shared in common with the KKK--proud to have had that with them in common. NO DECENT person can be mormon. you will have to reconcile/rationalise your hatred and bigotry if you remain in mormon hatemonger church. peace be upon u,the atheist-i hate not

it's even a sadder world when you have religions teaching hatred (and not love which they're supposed to be about) and they (the mormon church) substantiates this hatred.by wasting x amount of dollars for hatred (prop 8) when they could of used that money for a noble cause--the poor did not their jesus say 'i was hungry and you fed me... ‘Truly I say to you, to the extent that you did it to one of these brothers of Mine, even the least of them, you did it to Me.’ Matthew 25:36. THE ATHEIST

@chadro85 so then you arent trying to make them second class citizens by denying them marriage?

[chadro85]

@mermaidsareppl222 i don't need to admit anything because i don't hate gays.

[mermaidsareppl222]

@chadro85 you're anti gay marriage so you lied

Why don't you just admit that you are a hater, anyone with a brain can see that
