Charlie Butts – OneNewsNow -

An employee at a Brookstone store in Boston Logan Airport is without a job because of his Christian beliefs.

The situation involves a manager from another shop telling Peter Vadala of her impending wedding to another woman. Vedala did not immediately react, nor did he provoke his superior to discuss the issue further. However, after being approached multiple times, he did later express the view of his faith toward homosexual conduct. A short time later, he heard from the chain’s human resources department.

Congress extends hate crime protections to homosexuals

October 31st, 2009 Betsy No comments

Associated Press

WASHINGTON, DC - Attacks on people based on their sexual orientation will join the list of federal hate crimes in an expansion of the law Congress approved Thursday and sent to President Barack Obama.

At the urging of Republicans, the bill was changed to assure that a religious leader or any other person cannot be prosecuted on the basis of his or her speech, beliefs, or association. But South Carolina Senator Jim DeMint worried that it would still “serve as a warning to people not to speak out too loudly about their religious views.” Read more…

faganSmClrHow can People with Different Approaches to Family Life Live Together in Free Societies?

by Pat Fagan, Ph.D., Senior Fellow and Director of the Center for Research on Marriage and Religion at the Family Research Council and Ruth Institute Advisory Board Member

SUMMARY The “monogamous” and the “polyamorous” cultures have totally different approaches to life, with religious worship and monogamous marriage being the defining differences in their different approaches to the sexual act. Coexistence necessitates that the differences be observed by giving parents of both cultures control over the programs that cause conflict: education, adolescent health and sex education. Monogamous men need to act to obtain this for the sake of their own children. Read more…

October 22nd, 2009 Betsy No comments

By Pete Winn, Senior Writer/Editor

Jim Brown – OneNewsNow -

Senator Joe Lieberman is working hard to advance two top legislative priorities of homosexual activists in Washington.

Senator Lieberman (I-Connecticut) earlier this year introduced the Domestic Partner Benefits and Obligations Act of 2009 (S. 1102), which would extend spousal benefits to the same-sex partners of federal government employees. Those benefits would include federal health insurance, enhanced dental and vision care, retirement and disability provisions and life insurance and benefits in cases of death or disability.

Same-Sex Marriage: Not in the Best Interest of Children

October 15th, 2009 Betsy 15 comments

By Trayce Hansen, Ph.D.

As mental health professionals, it’s our ethical and moral obligation to support policies that are in the best interest of those we serve, particularly those who are most vulnerable—namely, children. Same-sex marriage may be in the best interest of adult homosexuals who yearn for social and legal recognition of their unions, but it’s not in the best interest of children.

Proponents of same-sex marriage believe love is all children really need. Based on that supposition, they conclude it’s just as good for children to be raised by loving parents of the same sex, as by loving parents of the opposite sex. But that basic assumption—and all that flows from it—is naively simplistic and denies the complex nature and core needs of human beings. Read more…

Allie Martin – OneNewsNow, and Associated Press

A spokesman with the American Family Association says the hate crimes bill passed Thursday afternoon by the House could have a chilling effect on free speech and religious freedoms in the nation. If the bill passes the Senate, federal prosecutors will be able to intervene in cases of violence against people because of gender, sexual orientation, “gender identity,” or disability.

Truth, charity and same-sex marriage

October 14th, 2009 Betsy No comments

John R. Waiss Mercatornet.com

In an effort to extend charity to homosexuals pressing for the right to marry, some Christians are distorting truth.

The Lutheran church is in turmoil after a stormy debate over same-sex marriage. In August, a conference of the Evangelical Lutheran Church in America (ELCA), which represents 4.6 million Christians, gave its backing to homosexual relationships, same-sex marriage, and clergy in same-sex relationships. They did all this in the name of charity and justice. Read more…

Doctors settle case for denying lesbian treatment

September 30th, 2009 Betsy 1 comment

Charlie Butts – OneNewsNow -

A Christian attorney suggests that a ruling Tuesday by the California Supreme Court legitimizes discrimination against individuals who claim their religious convictions prevent them from providing certain professional services.

A California lesbian has settled a lawsuit against doctors who refused — on the basis of their Christian faith — to provide her artificial insemination services. The case went to the California Supreme Court (see details from Associated Press below) which ruled that doctors, in spite of their faith, cannot violate state anti-discrimination laws that are designed, in part, to protect homosexuals.

The insanity of same-sex parenting

September 30th, 2009 Betsy No comments

by David van Gend

It is time to say out loud that every child needs the love of a father and a mother.

I was at Pizza Hut with my three primary-age sons just after an Australian children’s program, Play School, aired its lesbian “two mothers” episode. My youngest son asked very seriously, “Daddy, can two boys marry?” and the middle son stepped in, “No, but two girls can marry. They were talking about it at school”.

I do not like strangers messing with the minds of my children. I object to anybody inserting disturbing notions into their sanely happy understanding of marriage and family. Read more…

‘Safe schools’ act – a misnomer?

September 25th, 2009 Betsy No comments

Pete Chagnon – OneNewsNow -

The Illinois Family Institute is raising concern over a “safe schools” amendment in the U.S. Congress.  

The Safe Schools Improvement Act (H.R. 2262) would ammend the Safe and Drug-Free Schools and Communities Act to include bullying and harrasment prevention programs. Laurie Higgins of the Illinois Family Institute says this is one of the central ways to get pro-homosexual information and resources into public schools.
