Obama and Huckabee and Clinton and Romney also oppose gay marriage.

(Trenton, New Jersey) A conservative group opposed to same-sex marriage has launched radio ads throughout New Jersey using children's voices to denounce gay unions.

The ads begin with an announcer saying "If we change the definition of marriage.." but is interrupted by a child.

"Grandma, my teacher said if grandpa was a girl that's ok, you can still be married,'" the voice says.

The announcer then returns to say: "Our kids will be taught a new way of thinking: 'God creating Adam and Eve is so old-fashioned.'"

"Thinking the unthinkable: 'If my dad married a man, who would be my mom?'"

The ads were paid for by the National Organization for Marriage.

'Thinking the unthinkable: 'If my dad married a man, who would be my mom?'

Oh my god, the horror! A child engaging in hypotethical thinking! Good thing no child will ever have to think that! Imagine if that child ever considered who his mother might be if his father had married another woman! As long as gay marriage remains illegal, I guess we'll never have to worry about that.

Also, why are public schools in New Jersey teaching Adam and Eve?

I really hope people are waking up to how stupid these arguments sound...
But, unfortunately, I think a lot of people think they are perfectly legitimate arguments...
Hopefully the legislators of New Jersey can show they are above this...

Everybody go see The Golden Compass so they make the other two films. Then we can REALLY start corrupting the children with gay angels... muwahahaha...

There are no gays in the section of Jersey where I live. I am my own pride parade.

"Our kids will be taught a new way of thinking: 'God creating Adam and Eve is so old-fashioned.'"

Wait, so...it's NOT ok for people to believe different things? Everyone has to believe the same thing in this country? Hmmm...that's not what they taught me in school.

I'm so confused.
