Navy Chaplain violates orders and wears a uniform during a political

also claiming gay and lesbian people don't actually even want to get  
married, ignoring what has been pointed out by others in earlier CWUs -  
that the percentage of LGBT people getting married each year is  
_higher_ than the heterosexual rate; the total appears paltry, but  
that's in part from the option being new; if this bears up, this  
argument will have to be going away soon - not that they let reality

the reaction against it is really telling, because it's not a reaction

Chaplain May Be Disciplined for White House Prayer
Navy lieutenant, facing possible court-martial, argues that praying in  
Jesus' name is not political speech and should be allowed.

http://www.family.org/cforum/extras/a0040324.cfm

An evangelical Navy chaplain stationed at Norfolk, Va., says he faces  
disciplinary action for appearing at a news conference outside of the  
White House and praying -- while in uniform.

Lt. Gordon Klingenschmitt told CitizenLink he had permission in writing  
to make the appearance -- which he said was in connection with efforts  
to seek a presidential order allowing chaplains to pray in Jesus' name  
in public. But the Navy, he said, changed its rules midstream.

"On 21 Feb, the Secretary of the Navy (Donald Winter) signed an illegal  
policy banning Christian prayers outside of a chapel setting, and I  
contested that," said the former Air Force major, who took a reduction  
in pay to change branches and become a Navy chaplain.

Nine days later, Klingenschmitt said he appeared in uniform in front of  
the White House with former Alabama Chief Justice Roy Moore and read  
the Prayer for the Armed Forces from the Anglican Book of Common  
Prayer, which ends, "Through Jesus Christ Our Lord, Amen."

"Now they are punishing me -- they are threatening me with  
court-martial -- because I said a prayer in Jesus' name, wearing my  
uniform, in front of the White House," he said. "They are equating my  
prayers to a partisan political speech, and they're saying I don't have  
a right to pray in Jesus' name outside of a chapel setting."

The Navy, for its part, indicated Klingenschmitt violated an order not  
to wear his uniform during a news event -- an act which appeared to  
lend the Navy's endorsement to the chaplain's political beliefs.

Gays Seek, but Don't Seem to Want, Marriage
New study reveals, activists' legal challenges aside, few homosexuals  
actually want to get married.

http://www.family.org/cforum/news/a0040321.cfm

Gay activists are clamoring for the right for same-sex couples to  
marry, filing legal challenges to traditional marriage in 10 states and  
fighting marriage-protection amendments in more than a dozen others.

But a new survey finds that once they are given the right to marry,  
very few homosexuals actually do so. Consider the Netherlands, the  
first and most liberal country to legalize gay marriage, where just 2  
to 6 percent of the gay population has taken marriage vows.

In Massachusetts, the only U.S. state to sanction same-sex marriage,  
about 17 percent of gays have tied the knot.

Former Senator Calls Marriage Amendment 'Silly'

Former U.S. Sen. John Danforth, in a speech to homosexual activists  
Saturday, announced that he's opposed to a federal constitutional  
amendment to preserve traditional marriage, The Associated Press  
reported.

Danforth, an Episcopal priest who served Missouri in the Senate, has  
been long thought of by fellow Republicans to tow a strong conservative  
line. But the Log Cabin Republicans -- a group that supports special  
rights for homosexuals -- saw a much different side.

California's proposed textbooks would advance homosexual teaching in  
public schools
By Lori Arnold
Christian Examiner

http://www.christianexaminer.com/Articles/Articles%20May06/ 
Art_May06_05.html

California’s school children, as young as kindergarten, would be  
required to learn about the contributions of gays, lesbians and the  
transgendered to American society as part of a bill pending before the  
state Senate.

“It’s an attack on our family and morals of our nation and so many  
children are falling for it,” said Orlean Koehle, a substitute teacher  
at Santa Rosa School District, north of San Francisco.

Koehl, the state president of the Eagle Forum of California, has  
closely monitored curriculum content in public schools after making  
national headlines several years ago by challenging a pro-gay assembly  
at one of the schools in her district.

“They had kept this assembly hush-hush and so none of the parents knew  
what was going on,” Koehle said.

In that instance, parents eventually prevailed in getting Santa Rosa  
officials to enact a policy that maintained parental rights over  
controversial content, the substitute teacher said. Now, Koehle and  
thousands of other pro-family advocates statewide are concerned that  
local policy such as that created by Santa Rosa, will be squelched with  
the passage of SB 1437, which some have warned will turn schools into  
sexual indoctrination centers.

Stem Cells — Changing My Personal Course
 From Embryonic Stem Cell Support to Its Opposition
By James P. Kelly
Biotech Writer

http://theseoultimes.com/ST/?url=/ST/db/read.php?idx=3302

"The truly frightening thing about the scientific mind,' in my  
experience, is that all things are a means to an end, and the 'end' is  
only defined by what a particular scientist finds interesting or  
profitable."

So says an American scientist who does not want to be named. Why? Her  
statement questions the motives of research ambitions. It suggests that  
the purpose of science may not be to serve mankind, but rather to serve  
itself.

This scientist, like many in her profession, depends on America's NIH  
for funding, or on non-profit foundations like the Christopher Reeve  
Paralysis Foundation, the Junior Diabetes Research Foundation, or the  
Michael J. Fox Parkinson's Foundation. They depend on the editors of  
research journals such as Science, Nature, and the New England Journal  
of Medicine to publish their work. They depend on university department  
heads, administrators, and professors for tenure and pay checks.

In today's scientific climate it can be professional suicide for  
researchers to publicly question the medical worth of  
industry-preferred agendas, like embryonic stem cell (ES) and cloning  
research, or to expose the myth of 'science serving man.'

Non-Ohioans pour nearly $2 million into governor's race

COLUMBUS, Ohio -- California businessman Robin P. Arkley II has a horse  
in Tuesday's primary race in faraway Ohio. So does Penna Dexter in  
Plano, Texas, a regional representative for Concerned Women for  
America.

New Jersey developers Howard and Betty Lou Schwartz, who also list a  
retirement address in Florida, have given $40,000 split equally between  
a Democrat and a Republican running for Ohio governor.

[...]

Perhaps most significant in Ohio, though, is not the amount of the  
contributions but their geographic diversity _ particularly those going  
to Republican Secretary of State Ken Blackwell. Blackwell's campaign  
finance reports list donations from all 50 states, the District of  
Columbia, Puerto Rico and the Virgin Islands. Arkley, a $10,000 donor  
in Eureka, Calif., and Dexter, who gave $50, evidence the breadth.

[...]

John Stemberger, president and general counsel for the Florida Family  
Policy Council, said Blackwell's name is well-known among Christian  
"values voters" across the country who oppose abortion and gay marriage

society we have all failed in the murder of children through abortion  
it is through the work of amazing people like Rep. Hyde that those

also to Henry Hyde for speaking for those who can't.

(AgapePress) - Several Roman Catholics in Orange County, California,  
are criticizing their bishop for, among other things, his support for  
homosexual marriage and his lavish lifestyle.

Concerned Catholics of the Diocese of Orange has sent a letter to  
Bishop Tod Brown, asking him why he proudly backs same-sex domestic  
partnerships and has appointed a number of men to positions of  
authority in the diocese, even though they reject the church's

Strategy for Exiting Public Schools Described as 'Call to Holiness'
By Jim Brown
American Family Association/Agape Press
May 1, 2006

http://headlines.agapepress.org/archive/5/afa/12006c.asp

(AgapePress) - One of the authors of a proposed resolution urging the  
Southern Baptist Convention (SBC) to come up with a plan to pull its  
children from public schools says the resolution is a "call to  
holiness" and a "call to obey God's Word."

A proposed resolution submitted for consideration at the denomination's  
annual meeting in June calls on the SBC to develop "an exit strategy  
from the public schools that would give particular attention to the  
needs of orphans, single parents, and the disadvantaged." The  
resolution is co-sponsored by Dr. Bruce Shortt, an attorney and author  
of the book The Harsh Truth About Public Schools, and Roger Moran, a  
member of the SBC executive committee.

Moran, a leader in the Missouri Baptist Convention, says he and Shortt  
want to stress the point that "biblical truth matters -- and it matters  
supremely."

"Somehow when we get to the issue of public education, truth doesn't  
seem to matter as much anymore," Moran offers. Members of the  
traditionally conservative denomination, he says, seem to be "okay"  
with the fact that their children are being taught such things as  
Darwinian evolution and that homosexuality is perhaps "an acceptable  
kind of thing," and that school officials can transport children to  
abortion clinics without the knowledge of the parents.

Spurned Massachusetts Parents File Suit Against Local School System
They Say Schools Have Violated State's Parental Notification Law
By Jim Brown
April 28, 2006

http://headlines.agapepress.org/archive/4/afa/282006b.asp

(AgapePress) - Parents in Lexington, Massachusetts, have filed a  
federal civil rights lawsuit against the town and school officials over  
their refusal to notify parents before classroom discussions with  
students regarding homosexuality. The two families bringing the suit  
claim school officials' actions violated the state's Parental  
Notification law.

The suit was filed yesterday (April 27) by parents David and Tonia  
Parker and Rob and Robin Wirthlin accuses school officials of violating  
their federal and Massachusetts civil rights in addition to the charge  
concerning the state Parental Notification law. Last year David Parker  
was arrested and spent the night in jail for refusing to leave  
Estabrook Elementary School until officials acknowledged his right to  
be notified when his six-year-old son is subjected to discussions about  
same-sex relationships.

Parker says school teachers and administrators have no right to  
interfere with his children's moral or religious upbringing. He  
believes that when parents of young elementary-age children request  
information from schools having to do with human sexuality or, as he  
describes it, "socially charged issues like different marriage  
constructs," those parents have a right to see that information and to  
"be notified when they're bringing this up to very small children."

http://headlines.agapepress.org/archive/5/afa/12006d.asp

(AgapePress) - Progress is being made on a facility that will house  
exhibits designed to proclaim the authority and accuracy of the Bible  
from Genesis to Revelation. The Creation Museum, located near the  
Cincinnati International Airport in northern Kentucky, is well under  
way; and later this month, the museum will be unveiling its large and  
uniquely designed bookstore.

The Creation Museum is a project of Answers in Genesis, a ministry that  
helps Christians become equipped to defend the biblical account of  
creation. The 50,000-square-foot museum will feature exhibits and other  
teaching tools that will show visitors how science confirms biblical  
history.

Answers in Genesis president Ken Ham says the project is on target for  
its opening next April, and the opening of its 3,000-square-foot  
bookstore May 20. The bookstore is "done up as a medieval castle  
inside, with a theme of 'Dragons and Dinosaurs,'" he says. Replicas of  
those mighty creatures will be incorporated into the store's design,"  
Ham notes, along with "a big sculpture of St. George and the Dragon."

...Delegates from the American Baptist Churches of the Pacific

...Focus on the Family Action has announced its launch of a new

Amendment (MPA). According to Tom Minnery, FOTF Action's senior vice  
president of government and public policy, the ministry is partnering  
with several churches and faith-based organizations in an effort to  
send one million cards to the U.S. Senate. The objective, Minnery says,  
is to provide the lawmakers with "tangible evidence of the overwhelming  
support for traditional marriage" that exists across America.

[...]

Organizations that have joined in the postcard effort include the  
Arlington Group, the Family Research Council, the Southern Baptist  
Convention, the Lutheran Church-Missouri Synod, and several Catholic,  
Orthodox, Anglican, Foursquare, and Greek Orthodox churches, among  
others. The groups and churches are encouraging members to send  
postcards to their senators prior to the MPA vote scheduled for early  
June. [Jenni Parker]

April 27, 2006 – The 9th Circuit Court in San Francisco has issued  
another wacko ruling that violates free speech and religious  
expression. As usual, the radical opinion was written by Judge Stephen  
Reinhardt, a hard-core left Carter appointee, who has a long history of  
issuing rulings unrelated to the Constitution or the law.

The case is Harper v. Poway School District and involves a student who  
wore an anti-homosexual T-shirt to school to protest the  
homosexual-instigated Day of Silence on campus. The T-shirt called  
homosexuality “shameful” and included a Bible verse. School officials  
removed the student from his class and was threatened with suspension  
if he wore the shirt again.

“Gay” Subculture Left Woman Scarred from Childhood in Homosexual Home
by Hilary White
LifeSite
Wednesday April 19, 2006

http://www.lifesite.net/ldn/2006/apr/06041911.html

BOSTON, The Massachusetts government heard testimony last week from a  
young Canadian woman, Dawn C. Stefanowicz who had been raised from  
infancy by her homosexual father and his various “partners” in a “gay”  
household. She told the Massachusetts Judiciary Committee that her life  
submerged in the homosexual subculture had left her scarred  
psychologically and morally.

Stefanowicz made her statement during hearings, held April 11 by the  
Massachusetts government to consider establishing an amendment to the  
state constitution that would define marriage as being between one man  
and one woman.

Describing her father’s homosexual lifestyle as a culture without  
“boundaries and principles of morality and monogamy,” Stefanowicz said  
her upbringing was characterized by confusion and lack of affection,  
domestic violence and sexual abuse.

[Editor's note: the point of these stories, of course, is to take one  
example and make it the only example. By making the bad case data the  
only case - and since little of their readership understands the idea  
of "representative sampling" - they help create a story in their  
readers' minds of this as the norm - of lesbian and gay parents being  
inherent abusers, which is part of their propaganda goal.]

Quebecer tells Massachusetts Legislators of Danger to Children in  
Homosexual “Marriage”
LifeSite
by Hilary White

http://www.lifesite.net/ldn/2006/apr/06042602.html

BOSTON, April 25, 2006 (LifeSiteNews.com) - Quebec resident, Louis  
DeSerres, added his testimony April 11, to that of Dawn Stefanowicz in  
hearings on homosexual “marriage” in Massachusetts. Stefanowicz had  
told legislators of her “traumatizing” upbringing in a homosexual  
household where her father introduced her to the gay subculture.

Most of the debates in Massachusetts over allowing homosexual partners  
to “marry” and adopt children have centred on talk of the “rights” of  
gay partners fully to imitate normal marriage. Little has been said by  
homosexual advocates on the protection or best interests of children.

DeSerres compared the decision of the French legislature to prohibit  
legal recognition of homosexual unions with the Canadian legislation  
allowing it. He said that France had differed from Canada in making  
concern for children a higher priority than the political or personal  
desires of adults. France, he said, went even further in protecting  
children when it restricted artificial procreation and adoption for  
homosexual partners. “Quite simply,” he said, “France's laws still  
favor the best interests of children over adults while Canada does  
not.”

[Editor's note: the point of these stories, of course, is to take one  
example and make it the only example. By making the bad case data the

Christian Rally to Replace Gay Pride Event

CHARLOTTE, NC, April 26, 2006 (LifeSiteNews.com) - The first-ever "Not  
Ashamed Charlotte" rally will unite Christians from different churches  
to proclaim their faith in the public square, replacing the annual gay  
pride event usually scheduled for early May in Marshall Park. The  
Christian rally will be held from 3-4 p.m. May 6 in the park. According  
to Dr. Michael L. Brown, Director of the Coalition of Conscience and  
organizer of Not Ashamed Charlotte, the timing of this event is highly  
significant.

"For the last four years," Brown explains, "on the first Saturday of  
May, Marshall Park has been will [sic] filled with as many as 3,000  
gays and lesbians celebrating Charlotte Pride." This gay pride event,  
marked by public lewdness and obscenity, has drawn protest from various  
Christian groups. Mayor Pat McCrory has also voiced his displeasure  
with the Charlotte Pride event being held in a public park. In other  
cities, similar gay pride events have drawn upwards of 100,000
