It is time for another referendum on gay rights. We have been licking our wounds long enough. I'm not going to sit by doing nothing really meaningful and watch either the courts or the legislature further advance special rights for homosexuality. Are you?
Here is what we must do.
We must launch a referendum to stop Maine from endorsing the special legal right to sexual promiscuity. So called "gay" activists want to rob our civilization of the legal and social concept of marriage. They want to replace it with a very special (in the bad sense) construct called civil unions.
Everyone has the right to marry already. Nobody should have legal rights that are premised on being sexually promiscuous! NO SPECIAL RIGHTS FOR HOMOSEXUALITY! PERIOD!!
We are going to need hundreds of volunteers to gather signatures. We will gather signatures at the polls in June and November. We will present our petition to the government in January 2009. Our referendum -- which will prevail at the ballot, I have no doubt of that -- will be voted by all the people of Maine in November of 2009.
Our referendum petition will prohibit recognition of civil unions and same sex marriage, at the very least.
At this point this is just me talking. I need to hear from you. I need your ideas. Most of all, I need your show of support to be persuaded that I should even recommend this to my board.
The forces that want same sex marriage are gathering meaningless signed post cards to present to the Legislature next year. We need to gather meaningful signatures.
If we spread the task across many churches and individuals we can do it without stressing anybody out.
Let's pull together and do the right thing. Let's say NO to special rights for homosexuality once and for all.
