Things are really pretty quiet. Given that this is a Wednesday and

WASHINGTON (Reuters) - Newly elected leader of the U.S. Episcopal
Church Bishop Katharine Jefferts Schori said on Monday she believed
homosexuality was no sin and homosexuals were created by God to love
people of the same gender.
Jefferts Schori, bishop of the Diocese of Nevada, was elected on Sunday
as the first woman leader of the 2.3 million-member Episcopal Church.
the U.S. branch of the worldwide Anglican Communion. She will formally
take office later this year.
Interviewed on CNN, Jefferts Schori was asked if it was a sin to be
homosexual.
"I don't believe so. I believe that God creates us with different
gifts. Each one of us comes into this world with a different collection
of things that challenge us and things that give us joy and allow us to
bless the world around us," she said.

Brownback Wants Senate to Debate Bioethics Before Stem-Cell Vote
Kansas senator says it's criminal to divert funds from successful
research.
by Pete Winn, associate editor
Focus on the Family
June 21, 2006
http://www.family.org/cforum/extras/a0040979.cfm
U.S. Sen. Sam Brownback said Tuesday he plans to call for a floor
debate on bioethics when the chamber takes up H.R. 810, an embryonic
stem-cell research bill that life advocates oppose.
At a news conference, Brownback, R-Kan., said he opposes the bill that
would rescind the policy President Bush put in place in August 2001.
The policy limits the use of embryonic stem-cells to lines in existence
before 2001.
[...]
TAKE ACTION:
Please contact your U.S. senators and ask them to oppose H.R. 810 and
S. 471 ¡X the so-called Castle-Specter stem-cell research bill.
The bill would throw off the restraints President Bush placed on human
embryo research in 2001.

LAS VEGAS ¡X The Clark County School District and free-speech advocates
are defending school officials' decision to cut short a high school
valedictorian's commencement speech, saying the speech would have
amounted to school-sponsored proselytizing.
Officials and a lawyer with the American Civil Liberties Union said on
June 16 that administrators followed federal law when they cut the
microphone on Foothill High School valedictorian Brittany McComb as she
began deviating from a preapproved speech and reading from a version
that mentioned God and contained biblical references.

Episcopal Leader: Homosexuality Not a Sin
by Pete Winn and
Jessica Headley,
CitizenLink staff
New presiding bishop thinks being gay is "a gift" from God.
American Episcopalians have sent a message to the rest of the world ¡X
one Bible-believing evangelicals still in the denomination hoped they
would never hear.
Over the weekend, the general convention of the Episcopal Church ¡X the
American branch of the Worldwide Anglican Communion ¡X chose as its new
presiding bishop a woman who says she doesn't think there is anything
wrong with homosexual behavior.
[...]
For conservative and traditional Episcopalians, the selection was bad
news, according to The Rev. Dr. Ephraim Radner, one of the church's top
theologians.
"Schori's actions . . . fly in the face of what the rest of the
Anglican Communion has asked of the Episcopal Church ¡X and she needs to
explain herself," Radner said.
[...]
Outside the Episcopal Church, meanwhile, Christians who minister to
homosexuals said they are appalled that the leader of a major Christian
denomination would mislead people about what Scripture says about
homosexuality.
Melissa Fryrear, gender issues analyst at Focus on the Family, said
homosexuality is clearly not the "gift" Schori thinks it is.

The HomoseXual Agenda
by Matt Kaufman
Boundless
A Magazine of Focus on the Family
Online as of June 21, 2006
http://www.boundless.org/2005/articles/a0001285.cfm
[...]
Though I was an old Marvel Comics fan (we're talking '60s and '70s), I
never really got into X-Men: The series hit its stride about the time I
was shifting to other interests. But I always understood the
characters' appeal, which has translated well to the movies. Besides
featuring a variety of cool powers and interesting personalities, X-Men
was built on themes of alienation and prejudice which were easy to
relate to for many people, especially teenagers.
The message ¡X the need for acceptance of people's differences ¡X was
powerful, important and, by and large, morally positive. But it's also
one that can get twisted into a morally distorted form. And our culture
just so happens to be susceptible to that sort of distortion.
[...]
Again, though, even such a positive message as this can be distorted ¡X
and has been.
Case in point: Homosexuals have embraced X-Men as a metaphor for their
experience, seeing themselves as persecuted victims of a society driven
by no more than fear, ignorance or bigotry. And it's fair to say
they've had some encouragement from a number of people involved in the
comics and movies ¡X especially the latter.

Book Demystifies Gay Issues
by Trish Amason, assistant editor
Focus on the Family
May 24, 2004
http://www.family.org/cforum/feature/a0032148.cfm
Focus on the Family's Mike Haley hopes to shed light on the political,
social and personal confusion surrounding homosexuality with '101
Frequently Asked Questions About Homosexuality.'
Homosexual couples now can be legally married in the United States,
just the latest culture-war victory for gay activists who have
succeeded over the last several decades in winning wide-ranging
cultural acceptance of their lifestyle. How should the church, and
individual Christians, respond not only to the gay activist agenda ¡X
but also the gay neighbor across the street or the gay coworker in the
next cubicle?
Mike Haley, manager of the gender issues department at Focus on the
Family, has written a book that addresses these issues ¡X and a whole
lot more. "101 Frequently Asked Questions About Homosexuality," due out
later this month, tackles everything from "Do homosexuals choose to be
gay?" to how best to handle it when family members "come out."

Washington Supreme Court Continues To Stall

http://www.faithandfreedom.us/weblog/2006/06/washington-supreme-court-
continues-to.html
Like many of you, I continue to check the weekly listing of Washington
Supreme Court rulings, still looking for the ruling on marriage -
specifically the Defense of Marriage Act (DOMA), which defines marriage
between one man and one woman.
The Court has been deliberating this issue for more than a year and a
half, even though Washington law requires a ruling within a year after
the Court has heard a case. However, as with many aspects of our
political life, there are ways around the rules. And therein is the
problem.
The Washington Supreme Court has politicized itself while stalling on
this ruling.
So we wait.
[...]
Three seats are open this next election. There are two alternatives you
should know about. We cannot directly endorse candidates on this
website, however, we will be giving you some helpful, educational
information regarding Supreme Court candidates in the coming weeks.

A Form of ID: Defining Science and Faith
part 2 of 4 by David J. Hill
TrueU
A student-aimed publication of Focus on the Family
http://www.trueu.org/dorms/stulounge/A000000496.cfm
Using the same words doesn't always result in communication. That's
because, though we may be using the same vocabulary, sometimes we are
using different dictionaries. David Hill clarifies terms within the
Intelligent Design debate so that further discussion can be more
fruitful.
Defining the Debate
In part one of this series, I described the Pennsylvania court case
about intelligent design (ID) in the classroom. I also described two
rather bold assertions:
* Darwinist's [sic] have faith.
* Science and faith have been integrated for thousands of years.
But how can these assertions be true? Isn't Darwinism completely based
on factual evidence? Haven't science and religion taken completely
separate pathways in human history?

Marriage Amendments Make Progress in the States

June 19, 2005
http://www.cwalac.org/article_340.shtml
While the Marriage Protection Amendment¡¦s recent failure in the U.S.
Senate seemed disappointing, tremendous things are happening for
traditional values in the states.
On June 6, Alabama became the 20th state to pass a state constitutional
amendment defining marriage as only a union between one man and one
woman. Alabamians voted 81 percent in favor of their state marriage
amendment. The vote, the highest approval rating of any marriage
amendment thus far, was a huge victory for traditional values.
On June 7, the Pennsylvania House of Representatives passed a
constitutional amendment, 137 to 60, to ban homosexual marriage and
civil unions. If the amendment continues with its success, it will be
on the November 2007 ballot.

homosexual activist held a press conference at the National Press Club
last week to launch a new organization that he has dubbed ¡§Truth Wins

Wayne Besen, who insists that people are born ¡§gay¡¨ and cannot overcome
homosexual desires, staged his event on the same day (June 7) that the
U.S. Senate was voting on the Marriage Protection Amendment.
Joined by five other men who claim to have undergone ¡§ex-gay¡¨
counseling and who say they reverted to homosexuality, Besen assailed

Think Passage of the Virginia Marriage Amendment is a Shoo-In?
Concerned Women for America
6/19/2006
http://www.cwfa.org/articledisplay.asp?
id=10931&department=FIELD&categoryid=family
Do you think passage of the Virginia Marriage Amendment is a shoo-in?
Read this:
A May 22 Gallop Poll reported that Americans Still Oppose Gay Marriage,
but only half favor a constitutional amendment to bar it. The on-line
article by Lydia Saad reported:
"The close party-line vote in the Senate Judiciary Committee last week
on a constitutional amendment to define marriage as a heterosexual-only
institution strongly reflects public opinion on the issue. Americans
split about evenly in their reactions to such an amendment, with most
Republicans in favor and a majority of Democrats opposed. More
generally, about three in five Americans oppose making gay marriages
legally valid."
[...]
Proposed Amendment
If approved by the voters, this proposed amendment will become part of
the Constitution of Virginia. The proposed amendment adds a definition
of marriage as the "union between one man and one woman" to the
Constitution's Bill of Rights and prohibits Virginia and its counties,
cities, and towns from creating or recognizing any legal status by any
name which is comparable to marriage.
Marriage in the Commonwealth creates specific legal rights, benefits,
and obligations for a man and a woman. There are other legal rights,
benefits, and obligations which will continue to be available to
unmarried persons, including the naming of an agent to make end-of-life
decisions by an Advance Medical Directive (Code of Virginia ¡±
54.1-2981), protections afforded under Domestic Violence laws (Code of
Virginia ¡± 18.2-57.2), ownership of real property as joint tenants with
or without a right of survivorship (Code of Virginia ¡± 55-20.1), or
disposition of property by will (Code of Virginia ¡± 64.1-46).

Pennsylvania Marriage Protection Amendment may allow future civil unions
Family Research Council
June 19, 2006 - Monday
Pennsylvania (more on this state)
Forward to a Friend!
http://www.frc.org/get.cfm?i=AL06F03&f=PG03I03
After passing the State House by more than a 2-to-1 margin, the PA
Marriage Protection Amendment (HB 2381) was amended, and thereby
weakened, by a 9-5 vote in the Senate Judiciary Committee. The changes
make the original amendment ineffectual even if ratified.
The PA Senate Judiciary Committee advanced a Marriage Protection
Amendment, but with an amendment by Erie Sen. Jane Earll which removed
important language. The changes allow a future court or legislature to
create civil unions or other counterfeits to marriage. The Earll
amendment passed with a vote of 9-5. The final vote out of committee
was 13-1 with a lone protest vote by Sen. Jane Orie, a strong supporter
of marriage protection who spoke in favor of the original bill.
The Amendment must protect marriage. It must include protections
against the creation of civil unions as has happened in Vermont and
Connecticut. A civil union is exactly the same thing as same-sex
marriage-only the name is different, and the impact would be the same.
Civil union is just another name for marriage and a backdoor approach
to legalize and elevate government recognition of same-sex partnerships
to the status of marriage, thus devaluing the institution of marriage.
But it can be fixed! Your state senator needs to hear from you ASAP!
The State Senate will debate and vote on the Marriage Protection
Amendment Tuesday or Wednesday, June 20 or 21. The Senate by a floor
vote can fix the damage done by the Judiciary Committee and restore the
original language of the Amendment as passed by the House.
Call or email your state senator. See a listing of state senators.
When you call or email, ask your senator to vote to restore the
Pennsylvania Marriage Protection Amendment-HB 2381-to the language of
the House-passed version, and then vote for its final passage.
Thank you for your help in defending traditional marriage in
Pennsylvania.

National Education Association Set to Endorse Homosexual Marriage
Teacher's union begins plans to promote homosexual marriage in public
schools
American Family Association
ACTION ALERT
June 19, 2006
http://www.afa.net/neaendorses.asp
The National Education Association is set to endorse homosexual
marriage at their convention coming up in Orlando June 29 through July
6.
The new NEA proposal essentially says schools should support and
actively promote homosexual marriage and other forms of marriage (two
men and one woman, three women, two women and three men, etc.) in their
local schools.
The new proposal, expected to pass overwhelmingly, is found under the
B-8 Diversity paragraph:
The Association... believes in the importance of observances, programs
and curricula that accurately portray and recognize the roles,
contributions, cultures, and history of these diverse groups and
individuals.
The Association believes that legal rights and responsibilities with
regard to medical decisions, taxes, inheritance, adoption, legal
immigration, domestic partnerships, and civil unions and/or marriage
belong to all these diverse groups and individuals.
Translated, that means the NEA will promote homosexual marriage in
every avenue they have available, including textbooks, to all children
at all age levels and without the permission or knowledge of parents.
Their plans will include every public school in America.
Take Action
First, please forward this to all parents with children in public
schools. They need to be aware of the plans the NEA has to indoctrinate
their children with their pro-homosexual, homosexual marriage agenda.
Click here to send your email to your NEA state affiliate.
Please forward this to public school teachers you know so they can be
aware of the NEA's plans. In fact, their membership dues will be used
to help implement the new NEA plan.
AFA encourages teachers who do not approve of their dues going to the
NEA to find an alternative teacher's group to help them retain their
benefits. Teachers might want to give the CEAI home page a look
http://www.ceai.org/index.htm or find another alternative in their
state.

After Recent Ruling, Schlafly Questions Justice Roberts' Conservatism
By Chad Groening
American Family Association
June 20, 2006
http://headlines.agapepress.org/archive/6/afa/202006e.asp
(AgapePress) - Pro-family activist Phyllis Schlafly of Eagle Forum
believes United States Supreme Court Chief Justice John Roberts has
been more interested in bipartisanship and consensus than in taking a
strong conservative stand. One of his latest rulings, she notes, was
particularly disappointing.
Schlafly says she had hoped the appointments of Justices John Roberts
and Samuel Alito would help put the Supreme Court back on a
conservative course. However, she says Roberts did not take a strong
stance on the Solomon Amendment, which forbids colleges and
universities that receive federal funding to deny military recruiters
access to their campuses.
Conservatives were hoping for a Thomas or a Scalia among Bush's recent
appointments to the high court bench, Schlafly asserts, and she would
have liked to see a strong pro-military stance here, issuing from an
unequivocally conservative jurist. But clearly, she observes, "Justice
Roberts is not that." And apparently, the pro-family activist adds, "in
this case pertaining to the Solomon Amendment, he thought consensus and
unanimity more important than staking out a strong message."

Potter's Objectionable, Occultic Content Spurs Georgia Mom to Action
By Jim Brown
American Family Association
June 20, 2006
http://headlines.agapepress.org/archive/6/afa/202006c.asp
(AgapePress) - A Christian mom in Georgia is calling on the state board
of education to remove Harry Potter books from her children's schools.
It doesn't make sense, she says, to take the Bible out of schools, but
allow the occult in.
The popular series of books by J.K. Rowling have sold more than 100
million copies worldwide and spawned four movies, with a fifth
scheduled for release next year and a sixth in pre-production. But
Laura Mallory of Loganville is looking past the worldwide attraction of
the books, focusing on the local scene instead. The former missionary
is appealing last month's decision by the Gwinnett County School Board
to keep the popular children's books on school library shelves. Mallory
says among other things, the books promote "evil themes, witchcraft,
and demonic activity."

Pentagon Document Classifies Homosexuality as Mental Disorder
Tuesday, June 20, 2006
Fox News
http://www.foxnews.com/story/0%2C2933%2C200200%2C00.html
WASHINGTON ¡X A Pentagon document classifies homosexuality as a mental
disorder, decades after mental health experts abandoned that position.
The document outlines retirement or other discharge policies for
service members with physical disabilities, and in a section on defects
lists homosexuality alongside mental retardation and personality
disorders.
Critics said the reference underscores the Pentagon's failing policies
on gays, and adds to a culture that has created uncertainty and
insecurity around the treatment of homosexual service members, leading
to anti-gay harassment.

Education or pushing a lifestyle?
Focus on the Family Canada
June 21, 2006
http://www.fotf.ca/tfn/education/stories/062106.html
The B.C. government is promising parents input into shaping a new
social-justice course that includes ¡§respectful¡¨ teachings about
homosexuality ¡V but not as much input as a married same-sex couple will
have, the Vancouver Sun reported Friday.
A signed contract between Peter and Murray Corren and the Ministry of
Education, obtained by the Sun, grants the couple an unprecedented role
in not only developing the Grade 12-level course, but also in revising
the entire public school curriculum to better reflect the contributions
to society of non-heterosexuals.
The agreement is part of a settlement of a complaint filed by the
Correns with the B.C. Human Rights Tribunal. As Murray, an elementary
school teacher in Port Coquitlam, told the Sun in December 2004, they
alleged that the ¡§omission and suppression of queer issues¡¨ in the
school curriculum amounted to ¡§systemic discrimination.¡¨

[Editor's note: The emailed version of this included a TAKE ACTION,
reproduced below; this was not included in the web site version]
Take Action> Get involved with the education system
Changes like the ones happening in B.C.¡¦s education system are the
result of years of pushing by activist groups and individuals. It is
important that parents and concerned citizens do their part in shaping
the vital education system.
Action suggestions:
* Contact Minister of Education Shirley Bond, Attorney-General Wally
Oppal or your local MLA to express your concerns about this agreement.
Summer is a good time to meet with your MLA as they will be back in
their constituency. Remind them that parents, not special interest
groups, have ultimate responsibility for the education of their
children and there should be no restrictions on parents who wish to
exempt their children from any teaching on sexual orientation.
* Get involved with the public consultation process for these
curriculum changes. Contact the Ministry of Education and explain that
you would like to provide feedback on the curriculum changes.
* Join a planning or advisory council.
* Write a letter to the editor of your local newspapers explaining how
you feel about the agreement.
