Comments on: Proposition 8: Stop The Anti-Mormon Fear-a-Thon.

In fact, it's the opposite. Do you think people are really fooled when you attempt to hide your true prejudices behind the thin veil of your poor arguments? Hypocrisy doesn't win anybody's vote.

I've gotten so sick of all of the Mormon-bashing that's been going on. It's unreal to me that a group that comprises only 4% of California voters can be blamed for passing the proposition. Granted, much of the Yes on 8 money was donated by Mormon MEMBERS, but none came from the Church itself. Again, thanks for being a voice of reason. THANK YOU!!!

The LDS chruch gave $0.00 to the campain. It was indvidual members of the church who gave of their own money of their own will. Just as I am sure many other individuals did for "no" on prop 8. Now, if the real problem is that, in your mind, I am not allowed to vote or contribute to causes I believe in because I am Mormon, that is a separate issue. I did enjoy the article, we just have to agree to disagree and remember that at the end of the day, we need to work together. Gary,

I find religious organizations poking their noses into affairs of the state absolutely repugnant. I think it is about time that churches be taxed, and taxed heavily.
