Quick question re: Prop 8

[The_Tick]

I felt the same way at first...we should stay out of politics.

The broadcast they had 3 weeks ago Elder Ballard made it very clear that this wasn't a political issue, the Church has gotten involved because this is a "moral" issue.

It made it easier for me to support it.

Wasn't my point. I was referencing the method many church members use to support prop 8. In fact, I think missionary work would be more effective than Prop 8. From what I've observed of human nature, the only way to get somebody to stop doing something is to make them not want to do it anymore.

Tex needs a personal introduction to a man with whom he surely shares much in common: D. Michael Quinn!
