NO ON 3!

Dr. Ken Larsen, Personal Choice candidate for Governor, spoke with satire and passion today as he expressed his opposition to proposed Amendment 3:

Let's amend the Utah Constitution to define the term "Religion" in a way that excludes non-Christians. That way, we can exclude the non-Christians from First Amendment protection and all those tax breaks. Now, all we need is a good legal definition of the term "non-Christian." Anyone wanna start that debate? I thought not. Maybe the Mormons would prefer not to know what it's like to be on the receiving end of a constitutional amendment defining them out of the meaning of a religious institution, like marriage. Look out, non-Christians (Mormons and others). You all know the mantra, "America is a Christian Nation." Soon it will be in the schools. The official, majority, definition of "Christian" may well exclude you. Are you really sure you want to be subject to majority vote concerning religious definitions? Aren't you glad this type of amendment to our State Constitution, as with Amendment 3, is already prohibited by the 14th Amendment of the Supreme Law of the Land? Yes, it is sad to see the polls indicating that so many Utahns have such contempt for our National Constitution. In this case, I am confident the Constitution is on my side, regardless of the opinions of the Judiciary. Read it yourself. The 14th Amendment says NO to Amendment 3!"
