OPEN LETTER: Wednesday, October 29, 2008
An Open Letter and Invitation To: Arizona Christian Pastors and Leaders For Immediate Release: Sent via e-mail to: debian-www@lists.debian.org Wednesday, October 29, 2008 Dear Christian Pastor or Leader: We at Citizens For A Better America (R) (CFABA.ORG) are sending this Open Letter to Christian Pastors and Leaders in the state of Arizona with public e-mail addresses on public websites. If you have received this Open Letter by mistake, my apologies. Please Note: Some who are opposed to "Protection of Marriage" amendments have among other things accused us of spamming. The sending of this "Open Letter supporting Arizona Proposition 102" is completely compliant with all state and federal laws including the CAN-SPAM ACT of 2003, but if you are unhappy you received this e-mail please put remove in the subject line and reply to this e-mail and we will remove you from our list and confirm we have done so by e-mail. If however you decide to write to us anything more than just remove me then we consider those comments to be an "Open Letter" to us. Please read sections 9 of our Email Policy by clicking on the following link: http://www.cfaba.org/cf01022.htm#9 I am writing you about a solemn issue that I believe we as Christian Leaders need to address. It is my hope, desire, and goal to both educate you as well as encourage you to do all you can to protect marriage between one man and one woman. If you believe with me that homosexual marriage is not supported by the Word of God, the Holy Bible, then please continue to read this letter. Please allow me to briefly introduce myself. My name is Robert Colaco. I am the Volunteer National Chairman and Founder of Citizens For A Better America (R) (CFABA.ORG). I founded Citizens For A Better America (R) (CFABA.ORG) on October 15, 1992 for the primary purpose of electing morality and values based candidates to public office from the very lowest to the highest political positions all over the United States of America. Ever since our founding in addition to endorsing candidates we have also taken positions on state ballot measures across the United States of America. I am writing you this open letter to encourage your support of Proposition 102. If you have not already looked it over, in the Arizona State voter guide titled, "2008 Ballot Propositions & Judicial Performance Review" it states the following: ==== PROPOSITION 102 OFFICIAL TITLE SENATE CONCURRENT RESOLUTION 1042 PROPOSING AN AMENDMENT TO THE CONSTITUTION OF ARIZONA; AMENDING THE CONSTITUTION OF ARIZONA BY ADDING ARTICLE XXX; RELATING TO MARRIAGE. TEXT OF PROPOSED AMENDMENT Be it resolved by the Senate of the State of Arizona, the House of Representatives concurring: 1. Article XXX, Constitution of Arizona, is proposed to be added as follows if approved by the voters and on proclamation of the Governor: ARTICLE XXX. MARRIAGE 1. Marriage SECTION 1. ONLY A UNION OF ONE MAN AND ONE WOMAN SHALL BE VALID OR RECOGNIZED AS A MARRIAGE IN THIS STATE. 2. The Secretary of State shall submit this proposition to the voters at the next general election as provided by article XXI, Constitution of Arizona. ANALYSIS BY LEGISLATIVE COUNCIL Proposition 102 would amend the Arizona Constitution to provide that only a union of one man and one woman shall be valid or recognized as a marriage in this state. ==== See the PDF copy of this document we have archived on our server at http://www.protectmarriage.info/pm01003.htm it is PDF of only Prop 102, or visit the Arizona Election site, http://www.azsos.gov/election/2008/Info/PubPamphlet/english/contents.htm .
