Miss California Sparks Furor With Gay Marriage Comments on Miss USA Telecast

"As the family goes, so goes the nation and so goes the whole world in which we live." Pope John Paul II

It was very inappropriate of Perez Hilton to use the Miss USA pageant to advance same-sex marriage.  I applaud Carrie Prejean for her honest answer, and for sticking with her principles.

Miss North Carolina Kristen Dalton was crowned Miss USA on Sunday, but the big story to come out of the normally politics-free telecast was Miss California's comments regarding gay marriage.

When asked by judge Perez Hilton, an openly gay gossip blogger, whether she believed in gay marriage, Miss California, Carrie Prejean, said "We live in a land where you can choose same-sex marriage or opposite. And you know what, I think in my country, in my family, I think that I believe that a marriage should be between a man and a woman. No offense to anybody out there, but that's how I was raised."

Keith Lewis, who runs the Miss California competition, tells FOXNews.com that he was "saddened" by Prejean's statement.  Why Keith? because someone dared to disagree with you?

I'm sure she WAS tested. Proclaim the Gospel or not, that's the test we all face. I'm not sure I'd have had her courage-though I'm sure I'd never be on the Pageant anyway! LOL!

She'll get a better crown some day, God willing.
