    Yes, well I suppose this is all for their religious beliefs but that being said, I don't know why people don't propose a law allowing homosexuals to receive all the legal benefits of marriage under a different title...i'm assuming this was the idea behind civil unions but aren't their things that civil unions dont qualify for that marriages do? In my opinion it is unfair if that is the case, to expect gays to be happy with limited recognized Partnerships. After all, Argentina was not founded by mormons nor is Mormonism a predominant religion in the country so I have little idea as to what kind of auhority the LDS church is assuming there.

    There was a Mormon preacher downtown earlier, preaching how homosexuality is a sin.

    Someone threw eggs at them, and most of the people cheered because they were egged. :slight_smile:

    @alecs : What kind of authority? = money... what our political system is run by. ^_^ They can afford to spend money on things such as pro-prop 8 propaganda (lots of pros).

    Btw the Original post was tl;dr so if I make no sense that's why...
