QuoteThis bill would create legal civil unions in Illinois.

And it has a big committee hearing before Illinois legislators Thursday morning.

But what's unusual about the email is some of the strong language it uses.

"As has already been seen in Massachusetts, this will empower the public schools to begin teaching this lifestyle to our young children..."

and later the email goes on to say,

"It will also create grounds for rewriting all social mores; the current push in Massachusetts is to recognize and legalize all transgender rights (an individual in Massachusetts can now change their drivers license to the gender they believe themselves to be, regardless of actual gender, which means that confused men and women are now legally entering one another's bathrooms and locker rooms. What kind of a safety issue is this for our children?)

But what presumably was meant just for Nauvoo Illinois 3rd Ward LDS members, is now appearing on the internet.

If it comes from LDS or any other Christian group, they want everyone to conform to their view of the world.  "It is our way or the high way".  They don't want us learn evolution, ether.  But I don't want my grandchildren to only be taught their lies and BS.

They never will be satisfied till the entire world is bent to their perverted way of thinking.  That is the only thing that they believe.  They hate anything that isn't in their damned book.

What can you say to people who take a literal interpretation of the Michelson-Morley experiment? Those damned Mormons, cramming their absolute faith in their postulates of the equivalence of inertial frames and the constancy of the speed of light down the thoats of our children.  >:-)
