Pope Benedict Denounces Gay “Marriage” During His Annual Christmas Message
Lawmakers to Vote on Same-Sex “Marriage” in January?
Multiple media sources are cheerfully reporting that supporters of marriage-redefinition may try to pass their same-sex “marriage” bill during the lame duck session of the General Assembly next month (January 3-9).
State Representative Greg Harris (D-Chicago), who identifies as homosexual and is the chief sponsor of this anti-family legislation, used the lame duck session in 2010 to ram through a same-sex “civil unions” bill. It passed by razor-thin margins in part because many proponents of civil unions dishonestly promised lawmakers that the legalization of “civil unions” was all they wanted.
The ethically-challenged ACLU lobbied heavily for civil unions in 2010, …
Christian T-Shirt Maker Found Guilty of Gay Bias
In an overt act of religious discrimination, a Kentucky T-shirt manufacturer has been found guilty of “sexual orientation” discrimination for refusing to print T-shirts for a community homosexual festival.
Organizers of the Lexington, Kentucky “gay pride” event had filed the complaint against Hands On Originals, a Christian outfitter. The company declined to print T-shirts promoting the 5th annual “Lexington Pride Festival,” citing a conflict with their religious beliefs.
The Lexington-Fayette Human Rights Commission has found that Hands On Originals violated the city’s anti-discrimination ordinance. Attorneys for the company plan to appeal the decision to an independent hearing examiner, and …
What Journalists Should Ask Liberals and “Enlightened” Conservatives About Marriage
Sunday was a depressing news day. Here’s what purported “conservatives” George Will, Mary Matalin, and Matthew Dowd had to say about same-sex marriage:
George Will: “This decision by the Supreme Court came 31 days after an Election Day in which three states for the first time endorsed same-sex marriage at the ballot box — never happened before — Maine, Maryland, and the state of Washington….they could say it’s now safe to look at this because there is something like an emerging consensus. Quite literally, the opposition to gay marriage is dying. It’s old people….marriage law is traditionally the prerogative …
Higgins Responds to Mayor Rahm Emanuel’s “Priorities”
Chicago Tribune Celebrates Genderless “Marriage”
I had other plans for today until I read the Chicago Tribune editorial that ebulliently celebrates the rejection in four states of the central defining feature of marriage—sexual complementarity.
In a display of astonishing hubris, the Trib editorial board has prognosticated—without evidence, I might add—that “letting same-sex couples marry does no harm to the civil institution of marriage, but promotes family stability, rewards loving commitment, and safeguards the interest of children” (Apparently in the Trib’s view, the interests of children don’t include having a mother and a father).
Further, the Trib asserts that the “public understands” all this. The Tribune…
It’s Okay to Fight Against Homosexuality
When Perception Distorts Reality
The Associated Press reported this week on a new study from a homosexual demands group trumpeting the “highest-ever number of gay and bisexual characters on scripted broadcast network” television. They note that the number of homosexual characters on cable television is also growing. In their 17th annual “Where We Are on TV” report the Gay & Lesbian Alliance Against Defamation (GLAAD) found that overall homosexuals represent nearly 5 percent of TV characters, up from 2.9 percent in 2011. ABC has the highest amount at 5.2 percent of their regular characters portrayed as homosexual. CBS was saluted as having the …
When Abuse is Normalized
We conservatives have criticized the practice of homosexuality for a variety of reasons, a primary one being its abusive nature. In recent years, defenders of the practice have attempted to rebut our attacks saying that what they do to each other is not abuse, and even if it were, they are consenting adults. I am not sure that they really wish to get into a discussion regarding the abusive nature of their conduct, but are you familiar with S&M or “bondage?”
If you doubt the tawdry nature of their conduct, just go to one of their parades. On second thought, …
Tragedy Averted at Family Research Council Offices
Wednesday morning at the offices of the Family Research Council (FRC) in Washington D.C., a man entered the building and made remarks about “not liking FRC’s politics.” An FRC security guard, Leo Johnson, took interest in the man’s intentions for being in the building, at which point the man retrieved a pistol from his backpack and shot several rounds at the guard. Johnson was wounded in the arm but subdued the suspect and wrestled away his gun, and another guard held him until police arrived.
Leo Johnson underwent surgery on his arm, and FRC’s President, Tony Perkins, reports …
Not Here Mr. Cathy!
It is sadly true that when abnormal is called “normal,” normal becomes abnormal. If it is determined that having three fingers is “normal,” then those of us with five will be “abnormal.” So, Mayor Rahm Emanuel and Alderman Joe Moreno have broadcast to the world that the age tested and proven family value of intact one man-one woman families is not normal and not a Chicago value. That which was declared by God to be His creation, and has been accepted as normal for as long as the human race has existed is no longer normal in Chicago.
What is …
Marriage Law Under Assault in Illinois
Lambda Legal in cahoots with the American Civil Liberties Union (ACLU) of Illinois are suing the Cook County Clerk for purportedly violating the Constitution of Illinois when Cook County refused to issue marriage licenses to men who sought to marry men and women who sought to marry women. To make matters worse, these ethically challenged Illinois leaders have all expressed support for the lawsuit: Governor Patrick Quinn, Attorney General Lisa Madigan, Cook County State’s Attorney Anita Alvarez, and Cook County Clerk David Orr.
Lambda Legal is a homosexual legal organization hell-bent on using the judicial system …
