"You shall appoint for yourself judges and officers in all your towns which the LORD your God is giving you, according to your tribes, and they shall judge the people with righteous judgment” (Deuteronomy 16:18). In November of 2008, the people of California voted to approve Proposition 8, a ballot measure that would establish marriage in that state to be only between one man and one woman.
