In Support of Traditional Marriage




It’s critical place in Human Civilization cannot be exaggerated.  Civilization cannot exist without it.  It is noteworthy that in 1597, Five Spanish missionaries lost their lives in Georgia because they stood up for marriage while the natives there were insisting on polygamy.  Alexis de Tocqueville made an interesting comment in 1898; “There is certainly no country in the world where the tie of marriage is more respected than in America or where conjugal happiness is more highly or worthily appreciated.”  Children have a right to be raised by a mother and a father. 

In the state of Pennsylvania, Representative Metcalfe introduced H.B. 1349 which stipulates that marriage is between a man and a women.  If this bill is passed twice, it would be placed on a statewide ballot for a citizen vote. 

Citizens who would like to make a sacrifice in support of traditional marriage may decide to boycott products and services from the following corporations who are promoting same-gender marriage: Starbucks, J.C. Penny; Microsoft; General Mills; Amazon; Budweiser; Target; Levi's; Absolut.

NOTE:  Information on these corporations is listed below and I encourage everyone who decides to join the boycott to contact them to let them know why you are not purchasing their merchandise.  A boycott does no good unless you let the company know why you are no longer buying their products!
