The case of the state of California is a very clear example of the DOWNARD SPIRAL of America’s values.

On the March 7, 2000 primary election, Proposition 22 was adopted by a vote of 61.4% to 38%. The one-sentence code section explicitly defined the union of a man and a woman as the only valid or recognizable form of marriage in the State of California.

Then in November 2008, Proposition 8 added a new provision, Section 7.5 of the Declaration of Rights, to the California Constitution, which provides that “only marriage between a man and a woman is valid or recognized in California.”

The result: 52.47% in favor of Proposition 8 and 47.53% opposed.

Note how the pro-marriage numbers have GONE DOWN from 61% top 52% in just a little over 8 years !!

Now, 4 years after 2008, we see a poll showing a HUGE SHIFT in California favoring “marriage equality”.

The downward spiral continues.
