Good News For Hobby Lobby Regarding Obamacare's Abortion Provision Mandate

(CNSNews.com) – Following on yesterday’s 10th Circuit Court of Appeals ruling that Hobby Lobby can continue its lawsuit against the Obama administration’s contraception mandate on religious grounds, the U.S. District Court for the Western District of Oklahoma ruled today that the federal government must halt all enforcement of the mandate (and related financial penalties) against the Christian-based company.

Hobby Lobby and sister company Mardel are suing the Department of Health and Human Services and Secretary Kathleen Sebelius, arguing that to force the company to pay for health insurance that must offer abortion-inducing drugs, as well as sterilization and contraception, is a violation of its religious liberty.

I Agree With Dan Cathy of Chick-fil-A

Chick-fil-A president Dan Cathy has waded into the gay marriage issue once again.

Following the Supreme Court rulings Wednesday striking down the Defense of Marriage Act and opening the door for same-sex marriages in California, Cathy took to Twitter to criticize the rulings.

“Sad day for our nation; founding fathers would be ashamed of our gen. to abandon wisdom of the ages re: cornerstone of strong societies,” Cathy tweeted. It was later deleted from his account.

I agree. The Founding Fathers had a completely different worldview, one that was grounded in Scripture, even if not all of them were true Christians. The Bible was very much a part of their worldview source, used in church as well as education. 

Against Same Sex "Marriage" Before Being For It

Oh the liberal Democrats, they used to be against same-sex "marriage" before they were for it. Who you ask?

Bill Clinton, Harry Reid, Hillary Clinton, Barack Hussein Obama, Joe Biden, among others.

One Facet of the Liberal Worldview

"In order to understand the liberal and progressive agenda, one must know something about their world vision and values. Let's examine some of the evidence."~ Walter Williams in "Understanding Liberals and Progressives"

Walter Williams examines on facet of the worldview of liberals. Its one of hatred of humans, and Americans specifically. He quotes from some "intellectuals" who were not ashamed to promote the death of hundreds of thousands of Americans if that meant "saving the planet". For example Williams notes, "The late Jacques Cousteau told The UNESCO Courier: "One America burdens the earth much more than twenty Bangladeshes. This is a terrible thing to say. In order to stabilize world population, we must eliminate 350,000 people per day. It is a horrible thing to say, but it's just as bad not to say it." "

Liberals have an inability to think through their agenda long enough to see its conclusion. Many contradict reason by holding on to their agenda to the point that while standing "true" to say, abortion, their argument would conclude in their own non-existence. I saw this with Chelsea Clinton last week, where she was lamenting the fact that Planned Parenthood wasn't around for her great-grandmother to avail herself of while a pregnant teen. What Chelsea, with her Ivy League education didn't understand, was that had the PP been there and her great-grandmother used them, she and her mother would not be alive today.

There's a huge disconnect with many people's thinking today and it affects how one behaves. The inability to think through issues seems to be at an all-time low. Emotionalism is at an all time high. And if we were to be honest, the reality is, pride and Self idolatry is the REAL issue. People want what they want, when they want it, regardless of the outcome. Its immaturity, pride, and sin.

We are to have wisdom and cautiously think things through carefully. For the biblical Christian, that necessitates starting with Scripture, believing Scripture, understanding Scripture, and applying Scripture in all areas of life. True wisdom is not from this world or its debaters or scholars, but starts and ends with the holy triune God of Scripture alone. Truth is the reality of what is real and the Sovereign Creator of this universe is the One who defines what is True. He is knowable and Truth therefore is knowable.

The outcome with godly wisdom is good fruit and the outcome of earthly man-centered wisdom is death:

Jas 3:12  Can a fig tree, my brothers, bear olives, or a grapevine produce figs? Neither can a salt pond yield fresh water. 
Jas 3:13  Who is wise and understanding among you? By his good conduct let him show his works in the meekness of wisdom. 
Jas 3:14  But if you have bitter jealousy and selfish ambition in your hearts, do not boast and be false to the truth. 
Jas 3:15  This is not the wisdom that comes down from above, but is earthly, unspiritual, demonic. 
Jas 3:16  For where jealousy and selfish ambition exist, there will be disorder and every vile practice. 
Jas 3:17  But the wisdom from above is first pure, then peaceable, gentle, open to reason, full of mercy and good fruits, impartial and sincere. 

Jas 3:18  And a harvest of righteousness is sown in peace by those who make peace. 

Diversity

Discrimination has been part of the liberal mindset for generations. Williams brings up a few examples (Woodrow Wilson, for example) and asks why today's liberals (aka "progressives" who were called "progressives" in Wilson's day) don't disavow their racist forefathers. 

Excerpts:

Intellectuals argue that diversity is necessary for academic excellence, but what's the evidence? For example, Japan is a nation bereft of diversity in any activity. Close to 99 percent of its population is of one race. Whose students do you think have higher academic achievement -- theirs or ours? According to the 2009 Program for International Student Assessment, the academic performance of U.S. high-school students in reading, math and science pales in comparison with their diversity-starved counterparts in Japan.

Should companies be treated equally? According to a Wall Street Journal op-ed (9/7/2009) by Manhattan Institute's energy expert Robert Bryce, Exxon Mobil pleaded guilty in federal court to killing 85 birds that had come into contact with its pollutants. The company paid $600,000 in fines and fees. A recent Associated Press story (5/14/2013) reported that "more than 573,000 birds are killed by the country's wind farms each year, including 83,000 hunting birds such as hawks, falcons and eagles, according to an estimate published in March in the peer-reviewed Wildlife Society Bulletin." The Obama administration has never fined or prosecuted windmill farms, sometimes called bird Cuisinarts, for killing eagles and other protected bird species. In fact, AP reports that the Obama administration has shielded the industry from liability and has helped keep the scope of the deaths secret. It's interesting that The Associated Press chose to report the story only after the news about its reporters being secretly investigated. That caused the Obama administration to fall a bit out of favor with them. But what the heck, the 14th Amendment's requirement of "equal protection" before the law for everybody can be cast aside in the name of diversity, so why can't it be cast aside in the name of saving the planet? There are politically favored industries just as there are politically favored groups.

~Dr. Walter Williams, "Unasked and Unanswered Questions"

There's Nothing "Gay" About Same Sex "Marriage": it is an abomination that God will punish

Gen 9:14  "It shall come about, when I bring a cloud over the earth, that the bow will be seen in the cloud, 15  and I will remember My covenant, which is between Me and you and every living creature of all flesh; and never again shall the water become a flood to destroy all flesh. 

The rainbow God gave was a reminder of the Flood He sent due to the utter sin of all people which incurred His righteous anger and that He promised to not judge the earth by a massive flood again. The rainbow should bring to mind God's righteous anger against sin and His faithful promise of mercy.

The next time God will judge the world for these sins will be by fire. 

Rom 1:24  Therefore God gave them up in the lusts of their hearts to impurity, to the dishonoring of their bodies among themselves,25  because they exchanged the truth about God for a lie and worshiped and served the creature rather than the Creator, who is blessed forever! Amen.26  For this reason God gave them up to dishonorable passions. For their women exchanged natural relations for those that are contrary to nature;27  and the men likewise gave up natural relations with women and were consumed with passion for one another, men committing shameless acts with men and receiving in themselves the due penalty for their error. 

Rom 1:32  Though they know God's decree that those who practice such things deserve to die, they not only do them but give approval to those who practice them. 

Jude 1:7  just as Sodom and Gomorrah and the surrounding cities, which likewise indulged in sexual immorality and pursued unnatural desire, serve as an example by undergoing a punishment of eternal fire.

Mat 11:24  But I tell you that it will be more tolerable on the day of judgment for the land of Sodom than for you."

The defiance of America against God's created order of marriage being between one man and one woman is grievous to me and to all biblical Christians because its grievous to God.

Repent!

Buchanan Sees Two Countries With Influx of Illegal Aliens; This Is Exactly What MECHA and La Raza ("The Race") Want

"“You put 100 million Hispanic folks in the United States and, say, 70 million on the southwest border. That becomes as much as part of Mexico as it is the United States,” Buchanan continued. “If they have a different language, different culture, a different faith — basically you get two peoples. And two peoples eventually become two countries. This is what I see as the future of America — the Balkanization and the disintegration of a country which become one nation back around 1960 when all the immigrants who came from Eastern and Southern Europe, 1890-1920, had been assimilated and American-ized. We all had gone through the Depression together, heard radio together, went through World War II together and American television — that brought us all together. And now we’re coming apart.” "

~Pat Buchanan as quoted in the Daily Caller

But this is the goal precisely.

One article shows the agenda of MECHA, La Raza, and the mythical Aztlan, promoted especially at the university level. Former LA Maryo Tony Villaragosa bought into that as well, by the way.

Excerpts:

The acronym MEChA stands for "Movimiento Estudiantil Chicano de Aztlan." or "Chicano Student Movement of Aztlan."

MEChA is an Hispanic separatist organization that encourages anti-American activities and civil disobedience. The radical members of MEChA who refer to themselves as "Mechistas," romanticize Mexican claims to the "lost Territories" of the Southwestern United States -- a Chicano country called Aztlan. In its national constitution, MEChA calls for self-determination by its members to liberate Aztlan. MEChA's national constitution starts out:"Chicano and Chicana students of Aztlán must take upon themselves the responsibilities to promote Chicanismo within the community, politicizing our Raza with an emphasis on indigenous consciousness to continue the struggle for the self-determination of the Chicano people for the purpose of liberating Aztlán."

The myth of Aztlan can best be explained by California's Santa Barbara School District's Chicano Studies textbook, "The Mexican American Heritage" by East Los Angeles high school teacher Carlos Jimenez. On page 84 there is a redrawn map of Mexico and the United States, showing Mexico with a full one-third more territory, all of it taken back from the United States. On page 107, it says "Latinos are now realizing that the power to control Aztlan may once again be in their hands."

Shown are the "repatriated" eight or nine states including Colorado, California, Arizona, Texas, Utah, New Mexico, Oregon and parts of Washington. According to the school text, Mexico is supposed to regain these territories as they rightly belong to the "mythical" homeland of Aztlan. On page 86, it says "...a free-trade agreement...promises...if Mexico is to allow the U.S. to invest in Mexico...then Mexico should...be allowed to freely export...Mexican labor. Obviously this would mean a re-evaluation of the border between the two countries as we know it today." Jimenez's Aztlan myth is further amplified at MEChA club meetings held at Santa Barbara Public Schools....

"La Raza" (The Race) is a broad term which refers to those whose ancestry is indigenous to the area of Mexico (or "Aztlan"). MEChA members refer to themselves as "La Raza" or "Raza," but the term itself is used to indicate camaraderie among those in different organizations with the same objectives. There are a number of organizations who consider themselves to be La Raza.

The List of Negoitable Truth

Blast from the past. How error is beautifully tolerated in the name of "reformed" and "Christianity".....

How did God deal with the shepherds of Israel? Did He wink at their sin and excused it as being merely "immature"? Or did He condemn them and pronounce judgment upon them? See Jer. 6:13-15; 7:4-24).

Consider this too:The continuing list of what a "Christian" (even a Reformer) can hold to as optional yet find "unity" by "holding to" the TULIP and Creed and Confessions:

Male leadership in church and families 
Accepts Eastern mysticism/Emergent Church Movement 
Jesus' physical return
Our physical resurrection
Satan as our current enemy
Justification by faith alone
Literal Adam and Eve
Fruit of the Spirit
Creation in literal 6 days
Impeccability of Christ
Lordship of Christ
Not using freedoms in Christ to cover evil; causing a brother to stumble
Not Getting Drunk
Repentance
Gospel includes the resurrection of Jesus
Literal hell
The Narrow Road excludes many people (the Broad Road) (aka no Universalism)
The Trinity
Sufficiency of Scripture
Philosophy - hold to it
Truth in error
Faith Alone
Christ Alone
Inspiration of Scripture
Total Depravity
Perseverance / Preservation of the Saints by God alone
Rejection of heretics
Rejection of Roman Catholicism
Edifying speech
Perpescuity of Scripture and its doctrines
Completion of God's revelation

This leads me to ask, what makes anyone a Christian? Because they SAY they are?This POMO age has created "Christians" that not only do not know biblical doctrine, they don't live by it nor do they think its clear. Instead it has trained "Christians" to think ignorance as a virtue rather than a vice. Truth IS knowable. Jesus said it is. Do you really believe HIM?

This is why Calvinism, which is really very man-centered, will fall for Emergent Eastern Mysticism, Foul Language, and treating the things in Scripture, even Scripture itself, not as holy, but as entertaining or trivial matters. They find Scripture interesting but as milk, and the theologians as meat. This ought not to be.

Did Chelsea Really Say that?

Chelsea should seriously hear herself and reconsider her illogical argument of pro-baby murder:

New York, NY (CFAM) — From the stage at the recent Women Deliver conference, former US Secretary of State Hillary Clinton’s daughter Chelsea revealed that her much-admired maternal grandmother was the child of unwed teenage parents who “did not have access to services that are so crucial that Planned Parenthood helps provide.”

Chelsea’s grandmother was born of an unintended pregnancy. And new research shows that her family is not alone in treasuring a person who – if Planned Parenthood had been successful – would not have been born.

~ More here.

If Planned Parenthood (which btw, was part of racial cleansing via its founder Margaret Sanger), was around in her great-grandmother's day, her own mother and herself would not be here. 

Is Chelsea that obtuse? 

Despite California's Debt, Governor Gets Raise: Thanks Liberal Voters!

SACRAMENTO -- A state panel on Wednesday approved a 5% pay raise for Gov. Jerry Brown, legislators and other state elected officials, restoring the salary level they received before it was cut during last year’s budget problems.

The California Citizens Compensation Commission also agreed to increase the state’s contribution to the health benefits of state elected officials by 10%, restoring half of the amount cut in 2009.

~LA Times

Well Democrats, YOU voted for him.

We Are A Drugged Up Nation

Rochester, Minn. (CBS ATLANTA) –Researchers find that nearly 70 percent of Americans are on at least one prescription drug, and more than half receive at least two prescriptions.

Mayo Clinic researchers report that antibiotics, antidepressants and painkiller opioids are the most common prescriptions given to Americans. Twenty percent of U.S. patients were also found to be on five or more prescription medications.

The study is uncovering valuable information to the researchers about U.S. prescription practices.

~CBS

It means the pharmaceutical industry can continue to grow its billion dollar business even more with willing clients.

Given the huge expense of medication and its growing expansion of use, it seems the economy hasn't affected Americans.

Is it any wonder our bodies and minds can't handle life anymore? We're so drugged up we don't even know what normal IS, let alone have the ability to endure true hardship.

Money Behind GOP Amnesty Push

On Monday, conservative talk radio host Rush Limbaugh exposed the Republican politicians, donors, and consultants in the permanent political class that want the immigration bill to pass so they can benefit at the expense of American workers.

He said "big money" has trumped politics and principles in the push for "amnesty." 

~Breitbart

Of course it was. The GOP is not interested in principles, unless its the monetary kind.

That's it.

Personal interest and power grabbing.

Values? Respect of law? Principles?

Nope.

The GOP is a sham and should be rejected. The GOP won't change because its leaders don't give a rip about the party platform. Why keep voting in Republicans when the party has imploded and has rejected true values and integrity and then complain when they continue to act contradictory to what they told you they stood for? This isn't rocket science folks. Its time to reject the GOP. Otherwise they know they can count on your support while they continue in their liberalism.

US State Department Unsure if The Taliban Is A Terrorist Organization; Afghan President Halts Talks With US Because Backroom Peace Talks With the Taliban

Afghan President Hamid Karzai has halted these talks with the United States "to protest the way the Americans are reaching out to the Taliban in efforts to find a political solution to the war." Karzai expressed his disappointment with the U.S. government for holding direct talks with the Taliban before bringing Afghan officials into the negotiations.

When reminded that the Taliban was once labeled a terrorist organization by the U.S.,Psaki [State Department spokesperson] said that she was "not sure how they’re defined at this particular moment." 

~ Breitbart

Its deplorable that Obama would be doing such a thing. Seems treasonous to our country, our military men and women who have died over there, and to Afghanistan who we were supposed to be helping in coming into a democracy.

Obama Calls To End Catholic Schools In N. Ireland Because They "Cause Division"

The Catholic media is up in arms over comments President Obama made during a speech while in Northern Ireland for the G8 summit. Obama made what is described as “an alarming call for an end to Catholic education,” in spite of the fact that it is considered “a critical component of the Church.”

In front of an audience of about 2,000 young people, including many Catholics, Obama claimed that Catholic education divides people and blocks peace, according to the Scottish Catholic Observer.

“If towns remain divided—if Catholics have their schools and buildings and Protestants have theirs, if we can’t see ourselves in one another and fear or resentment are allowed to harden—that too encourages division and discourages cooperation,” Obama said.

~Bizpacreview

Now, I won't defend the RCC because it is not a biblically legitimate church. That said, Obama's hostility toward another religion other than Islam is quite telling.

Let's not forget he himself went to a Catholic school in Indonesia for at least three grades. He seemed over the years to take pride in his experience in Indonesia. What division is he talking about?

What he fails to recognize is that Islam, the political religion he continues to support in various ways, not the least and most recent of that of the Taliban in Afghanistan and Al-Qaeda in Syria. Yes, let's talk about the division of that political-religion.

Better yet, let's talk about Obama's socialism and how he is dividing this country by race and economic wars. He's a master at the us/them, me/you division.

MORE OBAMA DISREGARD FOR BLACKS

Exclusive: Mychal Massie notes BHO's silence about illegal murdering L.A. teen

Excerpts:

...Since the Supreme Court legalized the murder of unborn children vis-à-vis abortion (1973-present), nearly 19 million unborn black children have been murdered. Obama not only supports this mass murder of the unborn, but he has said that Planned Parenthood “does good work” and in a recent speech asked God to bless the organization. Depending on which numbers you ascribe to (the CDC set the number at 43.9 million in 2011), the total number of black Americans is 40-44 million. Put differently, Obama publicly champions the murdering of approximately 2.3 unborn black children for every one black child born...

And that is the just the tip of the iceberg when it comes to Obama and blacks. Specific to that point, let’s go back to my opening paragraph. As I indicated, Obama personally interjected himself into what many, myself included, believe was a clear case of self-defense when George Zimmerman shot and killed Martin as Martin was reportedly slamming Zimmerman’s head into the ground...


But in the case of Jamiel Shaw Jr., his only offense was being born black – an illegal-alien Mexican shot him to death because of the color of young Mr. Shaw’s skin. Not only has Obama ignored the murder of Jamiel Shaw Jr., but he has taken it upon himself to push amnesty for the millions of illegal-alien criminals in the country.

Jimmy Choo Prays to Various Gods

The Telegraph (UK), interviewed shoe designer Jimmy Choo. I found this part of the interview interesting, but sad:

Best piece of travel advice?

Last year, my Buddhist teacher was meditating and my Lady God told him to remind me to allow myself more time to prepare before I travel. My driver will say to me, “Please be here at 9am” and I will go down 45 minutes late. It’s usually because I’m looking for things that I have forgotten to pack. Now I try to pack the day before I travel.... 

How else do your Buddhist beliefs influence your travels?

As soon as I get off a plane I put my hand to the ground to thank the god of that country and ask that my stay is peaceful, with no accidents or danger, and that I get the chance to meet good people and make good friendships. Sometimes I hear people say, “What the hell is this guy doing?” as I pretend to tie my shoe lace.

~The Telegraph

Here is what the Creator of all things as said:

Exo 20:2  "I am the LORD your God, who brought you out of the land of Egypt, out of the house of slavery. 3  "You shall have no other gods before Me. 4  "You shall not make for yourself an idol, or any likeness of what is in heaven above or on the earth beneath or in the water under the earth. 5  "You shall not worship them or serve them; for I, the LORD your God, am a jealous God, visiting the iniquity of the fathers on the children, on the third and the fourth generations of those who hate Me, 6  but showing lovingkindness to thousands, to those who love Me and keep My commandments. 

Isa 44:9  Those who fashion a graven image are all of them futile, and their precious things are of no profit; even their own witnesses fail to see or know, so that they will be put to shame. 

Isa 44:10  Who has fashioned a god or cast an idol to no profit? 

Isa 44:11  Behold, all his companions will be put to shame, for the craftsmen themselves are mere men. Let them all assemble themselves, let them stand up, let them tremble, let them together be put to shame. 

Isa 45:18  For thus says the LORD, who created the heavens (He is the God who formed the earth and made it, He established it and did not create it a waste place, but formed it to be inhabited), "I am the LORD, and there is none else. 

Isa 45:19  "I have not spoken in secret, In some dark land; I did not say to the offspring of Jacob, 'Seek Me in a waste place'; I, the LORD, speak righteousness, Declaring things that are upright. 

Isa 45:20  "Gather yourselves and come; Draw near together, you fugitives of the nations; They have no knowledge, Who carry about their wooden idol And pray to a god who cannot save. 

Isa 45:21  "Declare and set forth your case; Indeed, let them consult together. Who has announced this from of old? Who has long since declared it? Is it not I, the LORD? And there is no other God besides Me, A righteous God and a Savior; There is none except Me. 

Isa 45:22  "Turn to Me and be saved, all the ends of the earth; For I am God, and there is no other. 

Isa 59:1  Behold, the LORD'S hand is not so short That it cannot save; Nor is His ear so dull That it cannot hear. 

The God of Scripture is the God Who hears, Who Sees, and Who Acts with all power. Idols and gods of Buddhism or any other religion is false because their god is a creation, not the Creator; deaf, blind, mute, and powerless, unlike the triune God of Scripture. 

Rom 1:18  For the wrath of God is revealed from heaven against all ungodliness and unrighteousness of men, who by their unrighteousness suppress the truth. 

Rom 1:19  For what can be known about God is plain to them, because God has shown it to them. 

Rom 1:20  For his invisible attributes, namely, his eternal power and divine nature, have been clearly perceived, ever since the creation of the world, in the things that have been made. So they are without excuse. 

Rom 1:21  For although they knew God, they did not honor him as God or give thanks to him, but they became futile in their thinking, and their foolish hearts were darkened. 

Rom 1:22  Claiming to be wise, they became fools, 

Rom 1:23  and exchanged the glory of the immortal God for images resembling mortal man and birds and animals and creeping things. 

Rom 1:24  Therefore God gave them up in the lusts of their hearts to impurity, to the dishonoring of their bodies among themselves, 

Rom 1:25  because they exchanged the truth about God for a lie and worshiped and served the creature rather than the Creator, who is blessed forever! Amen. 

The Taliban Is Ready To Talk "Peace"?

Actually the Taliban is ready to talk "piece" not "peace".

Last year, listening to music got people killed in Afghanistan by the "peaceful" Taliban.   

Any questions?

Terrorism Works. Just Ask the Taliban.

The US will begin direct peace talks with Taliban leaders over the future of Afghanistan within days, it was revealed on Tuesday, after Washington agreed to drop a series of preconditions that have previously held back negotiations.

~The Guardian (UK)

The Taliban enforces strict Sharia law, which is consistent Islam (not "extreme" Islam). Honor killings, beheadings, strict dress codes, hatred of women, violence, this is all part of the Taliban and what the US fought against for years.

Only to now surrender to the demonic, inhuman political religion of the Taliban.

Peace with Islam necessarily means submit or die. This is the heart of Islam, of the Taliban, and of al-qaeda. These people were banking on stupid Americans and they were right do to so. Too many of them are willingly ignorant of the truth of Islam (it cannot coexist with a Western worldview), or simply don't care.

Peace? Taliban?

If it weren't so deadly, I'd say its a joke.

All those American lives lost in Afghanistan and for what? Unreal.

Homosexuality Is Not A Civil Rights Issue

Contrary to what NYC mayor Bloomberg claims, sodomy "marriage" is not a civil rights issue like what Martin Luther King Jr. or others have dealt with. Its time for a revisit to a very relevant artical by Voddie Baucham.

Homosexuality Is Not The "New Black"

Excerpts from Voddie Baucham's article , "Gay Is Not the New Black" (please read the entire article for the full context along with all footnotes):

The first problem with the idea of conflating "sexual orientation" and race is the fact that homosexuality is undetectable apart from self-identification. Determining whether or not a person is black, Native American, or female usually involves no more than visual verification. However, should doubt remain, blood tests, genetics, or a quick trip up the family tree would suffice. Not so with homosexuality. There is no evidence that can confirm or deny a person's claims regarding sexual orientation.

An additional problem with the "gay is the new black" argument is the completedisconnect between same-sex "marriage" and anti-miscegenation laws. First, there is a categorical disconnect. Miscegenation literally means "the interbreeding of people considered to be of different racial types." Ironically, the fact that homosexuals cannot "interbreed" shines a spotlight on the problem inherent in their logic. How can forbidding people who actually have the ability to interbreed be the same thing as acknowledging the fact that two people categorically lack that ability?

Therefore, while anti-miscegenation laws denied people a legitimate right, the same cannot be said concerning the denial of marriage to same-sex couples; one cannot be denied a right to something that doesn't exist.

It should be noted that the right to marry is one of the most frequently denied rights we have. People who are already married, 12-year-olds, and people who are too closely related are just a few categories of people routinely and/or categorically denied the right to marry. Hence, the charge that it is wrong to deny any person a "fundamental right" rings hollow. There has always been, and, by necessity, will always be discrimination in marriage laws.

Fourth, there is a legal disconnect. One thing that seems to escape most people in this debate is the fact that homosexuals have never been denied the right to marry. They simply haven't had the right to redefine marriage.

However, this reasoning is critically important in order to make the next leap in logic. "[A] gay or lesbian person can only gain the same rights under the statute as a heterosexual person by negating the very trait that defines gay and lesbian people as a class---their sexual orientation."

It is very important for those of us who oppose the idea of same-sex "marriage" to do so not because we wish to preserve our version of the American Dream,but because we view marriage as a living, breathing picture of the relationship between Christ and his church (Eph. 5:22ff), and because we know that God has designed the family in a particular way.

Obama Uses 9 Year Old Twins To Promote Sodomy

This is so corrupt and sad. Obama introduced at the White House's celebration of sodomites and cross-genders by 9 year old twin girls. Using small children to promote such a wicked agenda is evil. How can adults sexualize such youngsters? To get them thinking so young about such perversion is to destroy innocent minds and hearts.

This is utterly shameful and will not go unpunished by God. This is exactly why He destroyed entire cities and nations. America is earning His judgment and righteous wrath as we head into the sins of Sodom, Gomorrah, and Rome. This is not what our Founding Fathers could ever have envisioned for this country, either.

God's condemnation of homosexuality is abundantly clear--He opposes it in every age.

- In the patriarchs (Genesis 19:1-28)

- In the Law of Moses (Leviticus 18:22; 20:13)

- In the Prophets (Ezekiel 16:46-50)

- In the New Testament (Romans 1:18-27; 1 Corinthians 6:9-10; Jude 7-8)

Why does God condemn homosexuality? Because it overturns God's fundamental design for human relationships--a design that pictures the complementary relationship between a man and a woman (Genesis 2:18-25; Matthew 19:4-6; Ephesians 5:22-33).

~JM  See my article here.

God condemns homosexuality also because it perverts not only His design of marriage and thus human relationships and the bedrock of society, but also because of its picture of the unity between Christ and His flock:

Eph 5:22  Wives, be subject to your own husbands, as to the Lord. 
Eph 5:23  For the husband is the head of the wife, as Christ also is the head of the church, He Himself being the Savior of the body. 
Eph 5:24  But as the church is subject to Christ, so also the wives ought to be to their husbands in everything. 
Eph 5:25  Husbands, love your wives, just as Christ also loved the church and gave Himself up for her, 
Eph 5:26  so that He might sanctify her, having cleansed her by the washing of water with the word, 
Eph 5:27  that He might present to Himself the church in all her glory, having no spot or wrinkle or any such thing; but that she would be holy and blameless. 
Eph 5:28  So husbands ought also to love their own wives as their own bodies. He who loves his own wife loves himself; 
Eph 5:29  for no one ever hated his own flesh, but nourishes and cherishes it, just as Christ also does the church, 
Eph 5:30  because we are members of His body. 
Eph 5:31  FOR THIS REASON A MAN SHALL LEAVE HIS FATHER AND MOTHER AND SHALL BE JOINED TO HIS WIFE, AND THE TWO SHALL BECOME ONE FLESH. 
Eph 5:32  This mystery is great; but I am speaking with reference to Christ and the church. 

Eph 5:33  Nevertheless, each individual among you also is to love his own wife even as himself, and the wife must see to it that she respects her husband. 

Jude 1:7  just as Sodom and Gomorrah and the surrounding cities, which likewise indulged in sexual immorality and pursued unnatural desire, serve as an example by undergoing a punishment of eternal fire.

But there is true hope. Such can be reconciled to God through faith and trust in the Person and work of the resurrected Lord Jesus Christ, repenting of one's sins and seeking forgiveness and mercy from God. Such can indeed be freed from the bondage of sin and darkness and find light, truth, and freedom, along with true peace and joy in the salvation of Christ Jesus:

1Co 6:11  And such  WERE some of you.  BUT you were washed, you were sanctified, you were

justified in the name of the Lord Jesus Christ and by the Spirit of our God. 

WH Tracks U.S. Private Citizen's Communications to Stop Terrorists But Won't Track Mosques Known For Violence

"Homeland Insecurity: The White House assures that tracking our every phone call and keystroke is to stop terrorists, and yet it won't snoop in mosques, where the terrorists are...

Before mosques were excluded from the otherwise wide domestic spy net the administration has cast, the FBI launched dozens of successful sting operations against homegrown jihadists — inside mosques — and disrupted dozens of plots against the homeland.

If only they were allowed to continue, perhaps the many victims of the Boston Marathon bombings would not have lost their lives and limbs. The FBI never canvassed Boston mosques until four days after the April 15 attacks, and it did not check out the radical Boston mosque where the Muslim bombers worshipped."

~ Investor's Business Daily

Mosques have been known for years to be the  recruitment centers for jihadists as well as promoters of violence. Our government however, will hound and harass Christians and other Conservatives, as I said, because they don't threaten anyone.  Muslims do. Terrorism works. And DC is full of cowards and gullible liberals.

According to the Middle East Quarterly study on 100 mosques in America:

"The survey's findings, explored in depth below, were that 51 percent of mosques had texts that either advocated the use of violence in the pursuit of a Shari'a-based political order or advocated violent jihad as a duty that should be of paramount importance to a Muslim; 30 percent had only texts that were moderately supportive of violence like the Tafsir Ibn Kathir and Fiqh as-Sunna; 19 percent had no violent texts at all."

"Imams at 82 of the 100 mosques surveyed recommended that worshipers study violence-positive materials..." (See the entire article for the study and the statistics: "Sharia and Violence In American Mosques").

With Obama opening up America to Syrian "refugees", we will have more of this, too.

Obama's regime is aiding and abetting Muslim terrorists via aid to the Syrian "rebels" who have declared their loyalty to al-Qaeda. and whom he wants to help against Assad. Why Obama, the anti-war candidate wants to get involved in yet another Muslim civil war is beyond me.

Does that makes sense? Why would the US do such a thing? We don't have a dog in that hunt. In essence we are helping the our own enemy, al-qaeda, who has murdered our own American people! We were supposed to be fighting al-qaeda, not help them in their civil war!

If that weren't enough, here's an update on Benghazi:

"Benghazi has descended into a state of civil emergency in which lawless militia have begun killing protestors with impunity, in the name of the puppet government the United States has established in Tripoli....


A group of highly credible Libyan expatriates have provided WND with links to television news video clips from Libya dramatically showing armed militia in Benghazi on June 8, firing indiscriminately on civilians attempting to protest the increasing influence of radical Islam thug groups with loose ties to al-Qaida."

Again, why we went into Libya is beyond me. We have no interests there, just as we have none in Syria. We're getting involved in Muslim civil wars that are none of our concern and Americans  have started to die as a result.
