[torch621]

RALEIGH, N.C. — The North Carolina House of Representatives voted Monday to put a ban on same-sex marriage before voters next year. After 3 1/2 hours of debate, 75 legislators voted in favor of the bill which would ask voters to amend the state constitution to define marriage as between one man and one woman.

Several Democrats joined the Republican majority in backing the bill. Voters could see it on the ballot during the May primary election.

Way to go NC!

FLORIDA Proposition 2 is an amendment to the Florida Constitution that defines marriage as between one man and one woman,
effectively banning same-sex marriage in the state.
The proposition text reads, " In as much as a marriage is the legal union of only one man and one woman as husband and wife, no other legal union that is treated as marriage or the substantial equivalent thereof shall be valid or recognized. "
Florida voters passed Proposition 2, dubbed “The Marriage Protection Amendment,” on the November 8, 2008 state ballot.

We should all pray for the Voters of NC.
