New Jersey Senate defeats same-sex‘marriage’ bill

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

In every state where it has been voted on, the majority of people have indicated that they do NOT support same-sex marriage. This was a sleazy attempt to force it on society. Thank God they failed.

A last minute attempt to push a gay “marriage” bill through the New Jersey Senate was defeated today by a vote of 20-14, ending the attempt to pass the measure before Democratic Gov. Jon Corzine leaves office.

The defeat of the bill comes just before Republican Chris Christie takes over the governor's office on January 19. Corzine had promised to sign the bill if it made it to his desk before he left office.

The incoming Christie has promised to veto any legislation legalizing gay “marriage.”

Opponents of the bill note that New Jersey legalized domestic partnerships in 2002 and civil unions in 2006. That's not enough for them? Why do they want to redefine marriage? They claim that this bill would have had adverse affects on religious freedom.
