Dare to dream is meant to to help us remember, to aspire and dream like we did as children." What an amazing idea. If you dare to dream, check out Johnson's site for inspiration!

not directed only to LDS women but all women, she molded her answer on Segullah differently than normal: "As little girls, we believe we can, and that Heavenly Father wants us to, accomplish amazing things.

"We have a lot more work to do in our common struggle against bigotry and discrimination. I say 'common struggle' because I believe very strongly that all forms of bigotry and discrimination are equally wrong and should be opposed by right-thinking Americans everywhere. Freedom from discrimination based on sexual orientation is surely a fundamental human right in any great democracy, as much as freedom from racial, religious, gender, or ethnic discrimination."

These four state Senators have betrayed New Yorkers in their quest for wedding cash," said Brian Brown, president of NOM. "They abandoned their stated values and their own promises to voters. We want to expose these Senators and their same-sex marriage money dance. NOM and our 'Let the People Vote' coalition will not rest until these legislators are turned out of office and the people of New York are allowed to vote on the definition of marriage."

He's right, being black and gay are very different.

In the US, gays have a higher than average tax burden. Blacks have a lower than average tax burden.

If gays have children, they have to have enough resources to not only actually take care of the child themselves, but they are also wise to be well-off enough to fight legal battles, or move. How many black children are fed and clothed by the taxpayer?

@turbod16y8 We live in a federal republic and not a democracy, not by the majority saying what rights a minority group has and doesnt have, and to marry is a right

The National Organization for Marriage – Rhode Island (NOM-RI) demanded today that Governor-elect Chafee’s promise to act quickly on invoking same-sex marriage in the state be put to an end. With polling data showing the majority of voters in Rhode Island opposing same-sex marriage, and the overwhelming majority wanting the issue to be put to them for a vote, the Governor-elect is promising to act against the will of the people, and refusing to give them a right to vote on the matter.
