Not surprisingly, Reverend Sun Myung Moon’s Unification Church favors Prop 8′s passage today in California. But isn’t it odd they waited until the last minute to make their support known?

Rev. Michael Jenkins, President of the Family Federation for World Peace and Unification (USA) announced his support today for California’s Protect Marriage Act, Proposition 8. Jenkins affirmed strong support for the proposition, which would restore the definition of marriage in California as between a man and a woman.

"However, a ‘no’ vote on Proposition 8 sends the wrong message to our children and to following generations about who we are as a people, what we live for, and who we live for. The fact is, a sanctified bond between a man and a woman represents more than a mere union between individuals. It represents the merging of the husband’s lineage with that of the wife. The received tradition of marriage is meaningful because it has the vertical dimension of God’s love and image as well as ancestral lineage and heritage. It also has a horizontal dimension of love between husband and wife. All children need and deserve parents who love them and who are married to each other. New life deserves origins in respect and loving intimacy. Nearly all Americans know this. Nearly all people in the world know this. Life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness begin with and are secured in a loving family rooted in marriage blessed by God," Jenkins said.

The Family Federation for World Peace and Unification, also known as the Family Church of America, was founded by the Reverend Dr. and Mrs. Sun Myung Moon.

Reverend Moon, of course, is on his fourth wife. And he specializes in mass arranged marriages. So I guess he’s kind of an "expert."

Will the Mormons and the Moonies bring theocracy to your state next?
