QuoteRegarding the Dec. 10 guest commentary by Rev. Teresa Novak, "Those who sow hate should not be surprised when more hatred results": Hate should have no bearing on Prop 8. A minister is a person with authority in religious matters; the authority comes from either man or god. Unitarian ministers are not ordained by God simply because God exists as a Trinity: Father, Son, Holy Ghost; they deny the latter.

Marriage is a two-fold contract under the laws of man and God. Man's laws began with the Code of Hammurabi and are constantly revised with the times; God's laws are written in the word of God and are not subject to change.
