Divorce Ban May Make the Ballot in California - Now That's Defense of Marriage!

Several years ago when the ridiculous Defense of Marriage Act was passed, the then pastor of my church, Rev. Michael Piazza suggested if people really wanted to defend marriage they could ban divorce.

Well, some enterprising folks in California have taken up the cause.  The California Secretary of State announced that a citizen has filed papers to do just that. John Marcotte has started a drive to put the measure on the ballot.  If he can raise 694,000 in the next 150 days it will go to a vote!

Here's to  you, Mr. Marcotte!  Good luck and I certainly hope you succeed since marriage is far more threatened by divorce than giving same-sex couples the right to marry.
