Prop 8 Protests - What To Do

Don't be fooled by all the protests going on right now. What you have is a very small minority of individuals that are organizing various protests throughout the state of California. It appears that there are thousands, if not millions of people who are against the enforcement of Prop 8. The news media is assisting in creating an atmosphere of hate and divisiveness in the community.

THE TRUTH
The majority of Californians voted YES on Prop 8. Most of the people who supported Obama for President also voted YES on Prop 8. In fact, there are now 30 states that have passed Constitutional Amendments to protect Traditional Marriage. Throughout all of history, in every society, marriage has always been defined as a union between one man and one woman.

These protests are designed to get you nervous and scared that there will be violence in the streets if Prop 8 is enforced. These are scare tactics that are helped along by the news media. It's just a small group of ill-informed people that have nothing better to do than to protest a valid vote.

WHAT YOU CAN DO
Most of us who support traditional marriage don't have the time or willingness to go out and protest. So what can we do:

• Prayer is the number one thing. Pray for our government leaders and judges to uphold the constitution and laws that God has ordained.

• Boycott the cities that are promoting the protests. Start out with staying away from San Fransisco, West Hollywood, and the other cities that have actively given support to these groups. Don't spend any money in their cities.

• Boycott the companies that have given support such as Levi Strauss, Apple, Google, Hallmark and McDonalds. Look online to find more companies that support gay marriage. The only way they get the message is if they lose money.

• Boycott the movie industry. Most of the actors and producers in Hollywwod are very radical and anti-family. Why support them and their causes?

• Support companies that support traditional marriage. I would list then here, but the protesters will use this for their own cause. Just look online and you'll find a list.

• Tell people about Jesus Christ! Tell them about the Gospel. How they can repent and put their trust in Christ alone for their salvation! Until people have a true change of heart, nothing will cause them to change their behavior.
