ELECTION 08: 'Gay marriage' legalization would squash religious freedom, experts say

[Baptist Press News] 26 Oct 2008--Robb and Robin Wirthlin didn't want to believe their son. In fact, they thought he might have just misunderstood the teacher's lesson, as second-graders sometimes do.

So when he came home in March 2006 and told his parents his public school teacher had read the class a children's book about "gay marriage" -- the story of a prince supposedly marrying another prince -- his parents wanted to check out the facts. To their surprise and dismay, though, the teacher had indeed read the book, which ends with a depiction of the two men kissing. "Gay marriage," after all, is legal in the state.

To make matters worse, the Wirthlins were told they would not be given advance notice in the future about any such books.
