Here's a bit of news that the mainstream media won't touch.
Stand for Marriage Maine
has collected more than 55 thousand signatures and has stopped Maine's
legislature from neutering marriage for the moment. Pro-marriage forces
collected the signatures after Maine Gov. John
Baldacci
signed legislation in May that allowed for same sex marriages. With the
signatures, the attempt to neuter marriage will now go to a public vote
in November. Marc
Mutty,
chairman of the coalition supporting the ballot proposal and Public
Affairs Director for the Catholic Diocese of Portland had this good
news to report:
“There has been an extraordinary
outpouring of support from voters across the state. This response gives
us momentum that will lift us over the first hurdle of putting the
issue before the people and, ultimately, carry us to victory in
November.”...
“We look forward to submitting the measure for certification
and engaging Mainers in a vigorous defense of marriage. Traditional
marriage has never lost on the ballot in any state. We expect it to
prevail in Maine.” (Catholic News Agency)
