Ron Prentice: “Grace and Mercy on a Soul: Senator Roy Ashburn”

Ron Prentice writes at the California Family Council: “California State Senator Roy Ashburn (R-Bakersfield) this week announced that he is homosexual . . . The attention brought by the media has led the senator to make public his sexual orientation . . . the fact that Ashburn – as a homosexual – voted against the legalization of same-sex marriage does not suggest bigotry or homophobia. The issue is whether man-woman marriage serves the common good of children and society, and virtually all research affirms that it does. California Family Council thanks Senator Ashburn for his commitment to the institution that is the cornerstone of civilization.”
