NO ON 8 All Over the State


It was a busy day in the neighborhood!
.
Here's a link to the "No on 8" Press Conference here in the Diocese of Los Angeles ...

There are also photos from the San Francisco press conference over at Walking With Integrity.

A link to the statement from ALL the bishops of California here.

And The L.A. Times has this to say:

California's six most senior Episcopal bishops today unanimously declared their opposition to a constitutional amendment on the statewide November ballot that would ban same-sex marriage.

The bishops argued that preserving the right of gays and lesbians to marry would enhance the "Christian values" of monogamy, love and commitment.

"We believe that continued access to civil marriage for all, regardless of sexual orientation, is consistent with the best principles of our constitutional rights," said the Rt. Rev. J. Jon Bruno, bishop of the Episcopal Diocese of Los Angeles."

"We do not believe that marriage of heterosexuals is threatened by same-sex marriage."
