Strengthening Marriage and Family Thursday

We talked about the Church's position on same-sex marriages, Proposition 8, and the legal mess that is sure to come up soon, no matter what side you are on.  
We talked about how if same-sex marriages were legalized then it would have far-reaching consequences.  Some of these being having to teach kids in school about these marriages.  And having to adopt kids to same-sex couples.  Evidence that LDS Adoption services would be required to do that is the Catholic Adoption agency in Mass that had to close because they refused to adopt to same-sex couples, despite being owned by a private organization.  
The Church's position on the subject is made very clear in the Proclamation when it says marriage is ordained by God to between a man and woman.
