“A lot of people were shocked”

The response to Miss California’s answer to a gay-marriage question during the Miss USA pageant Sunday night seems completely ridiculous. She said:

We live in a land where you can choose same-sex marriage or opposite. And you know what, I think in my country, in my family, I think that I believe that a marriage should be between a man and a woman. No offense to anybody out there, but that’s how I was raised.

And that’s shocking, according to one contestant? And hurtful to the “Miss California family”?

Keith Lewis, who runs the Miss California competition, tells FOXNews.com that he was “saddened” by Prejean’s statement.

“As co-director of the Miss California USA, I am personally saddened and hurt that Miss California believes marriage rights belong only to a man and a woman,” said Lewis in a statement. “I believe all religions should be able to ordain what unions they see fit. I do not believe our government should be able to discriminate against anyone and religious beliefs have no politics in the Miss California family.”

Is gay marriage the new world peace in the pageant world?
