The other question...

In reference to Proposition 8 and the other states measures, my cousin in Arizona quoted the following from President Abraham Lincoln which sums up my feelings as well...

"...I know that the Lord is always on the side of the right. But it is my constant anxiety and
prayer that I and this nation should be on the Lord's side."
Abraham Lincoln

"It is the duty of nations as well as of men to own their dependence upon the overruling power of God...and to recognize the sublime truth announced in the Holy Scriptures and proved by all history, that those nations only are blest whose God is the Lord." Abraham Lincoln


On January, 14, 1639, delegates from towns in the colony signed the Fundamental Orders of Connecticut —the first ever written constitution that created a government—which proclaimed that “the word of God requires that to mayntayne the peace and union of such a people there should be an orderly and decent Government established according to God . . . .” http://www.morallaw.org/America_Acknowledges_God.html
