I'd like to know what "Death's Proposal" would be in french.
I tried doing it myself and came up with "Proposition De Mort"
If any one could tell me if that's correct or not I'd really appreciate it.
I need help translating somthing into french...

Articles in French aren't quite like those in English. Normally for "of" you would use "de la" for a feminine object, "du" (a contraction of "de" and "le") for a masculine object, and "des" for a plural object.
However, other phrases with the word "mort" are constructed with just "de." For example, the death penalty is "peine de mort" (more literally,"pain of death.") So, the phrase that you want should be "La proposition de mort."
I could be mistaken, though; it has been a few years since I took a French class.
Let others believe in the God who brings men to trial and judges them. I shall cling to the God who resurrects the dead.

Thank you!
Would it be said differently if Death was an actual person making a proposal?
I never stop asking questions -_-;

That's correct to the best of my knowledge as well.
Every year in Uganda, innumerable children simply. . . disappear. These children all stolen under the cover of darkness from their homes and impressed into the guerilla armies of the LRA [Lord's Resistance Army]. In the deserts of Uganda, they are forced to witness the mindless slaughter of other children until they themselves can do nothing but kill. Kill. These children, generally ranging from ages 5-12, are brainwashed into murdering in the name of the resistance and into stealing other children from their beds to suffer the same fate.
Because of this genocide of innocence, hundred and hundreds of children live every night sleeping in public places miles from their homes, because they know that if the do not-- they will disappear. They will become just another number in this genocide to which the international community has chosen to turn a blind eye. They will become, in affect, invisible-- Invisible Children.
But there are those who are trying to fight against this slaughter of Uganda's children. They fight to protect these "invisible children." Please, help them help a country full of children who know nothing by fear. Help save the innocence. For more information concerning how you can help and how you can get an incredible video about this horrific reality, visit the Invisible Children home page.
