Immoral behavior

[nChrist]

That is a abomination!! These kids are to young to even know about the queer society!!

I ain't even going to read the rest of this news article. Cause chances are I'll say something I shouldn't.

Brother, overall we are watching the sewers being opened and dumped on the streets. The goal appears to be making everyone walk in the filth and be gagged by the STENCH! They want to indoctrinate the very young and make them believe the FILTH isn't DIRTY and it doesn't STINK! Regardless, IT'S STILL FILTH AND IT STILL STINKS! A less mentioned problem is the PUBLIC HEALTH CRISIS, the number of dreaded diseases, the lengthy and painful ways to die, and the number of people dying around the world every day BECAUSE OF THIS PERVERSE AND ABOMINABLE BEHAVIOR! If we limited this discussion JUST to the HEALTH CRISIS, it's beyond me that anyone would be allowed to promote behavior that results in huge numbers of disease-ridden people who are going to die a slow and painful death. On top of everything else, we all have to pay for their MONSTER MEDICAL BILLS. Encouraging this type of behavior is MUCH WORSE than encouraging meth or cocaine use! BLUNTLY, IT'S INSANE TO TEACH OUR CHILDREN THAT THIS PERVERSE AND DANGEROUS BEHAVIOR IS NORMAL! ARE THEY ATTEMPTING TO KILL OUR CHILDREN?

I see somebody beat me to the post.  I was just reading this before I left work tonight.  What really got me is the whole idea of this field day, I mean field trip was proposed by a PARENT!  How sick can you get?  Well don't answer that but it's absolutely disgusting.  I'm praying the rapture happens before my little guy even gets into Kindergarten which means it has to happen by next September!

I take back what I said. The world is plenty ripe

GOOD MORNING BROTHER DAVID!

I'll just anxiously await the RAPTURE and say that I hope it happens soon. All of this stuff out in the open and folks trying to force it on our children is pretty bad, but we should know that things will be much worse during the tribulation period. They might even have to come up with new terms and definitions for EVIL. I'm sure it will be beyond our imagination. However, things happening today were beyond our imagination just a few short years ago. As a quick example, indoctrinating children into homosexuality had serious felony consequences under "Exposing Minors To Harmful Materials". In fact there were probably a dozen different serious charges to choose from.

Same here brother. It is amazing how much things are changing.

UK's largest teachers' union lobbies to legalise sex with students
Christian Telegraph

The largest UK teachers' union wants the government to decriminalise sex with students who are over the legal age of consent, reports Hilary White, LifeSiteNews.com. Chris Keates, the general secretary of the National Association of Schoolmasters Union of Women Teachers (NASUWT), said that teachers who have sex with pupils over the age of consent should not be placed on the sex offenders register. Keates called prosecution for statutory rape "a real anomaly in the law that we are concerned about."

NASUWT complained that media reports had misrepresented their position. "To describe the NASUWT's comments on this as 'teachers want the right to bed pupils' as one report has done, simply for pointing out an anomaly which criminalises a teacher but would leave any other adult free from prosecution for the same type of relationship, is a travesty."

Gregory Carlin, however, a child protection activist and head of the Irish Anti-Trafficking Coalition, said that such ideas were another sign of the erosion of legal protections for young people against exploitation.

"If the NASUWT philosophy has its day," he said, "exploiting a 16 year old in a brothel would carry no extra penalty." Under the same logic, he said, "Jail guards would be able to take their pick from their charges and foster parents would be spared prosecution for having sex with foster children."

In an official statement dated October 6th, Keates said, "From the time the Sexual Offences legislation was first drafted in 2001 the NASUWT consistently raised the significant anomaly within its provisions. A teacher having a consensual relationship with a pupil over the age of 16 on the roll of the school in which they teach is liable under the Act to prosecution and being placed on the sex offenders register.

"However, if the same teacher has a consensual relationship with a young person of the same age who attends another school they would not be prosecuted or classed as sex offenders."

Carlin told LifeSiteNews.com that Keates "knows what she was asking for," which is simply to "legalise sex crimes."

List 99 is a secret register of men and women who are barred from working with children by the Department of Education and Skills. Carlin said, "Thousands of teachers are referred to List 99 each year, most of them from the NASUWT. In fact, the referrals doubled between 2003 and 2005."

City leaders to recommend approval of gay high school
Studies show increased dropout risk because of stigma, fear of violence

By Carlos Sadovi | Chicago Tribune reporter
    October 9, 2008

Pointing to studies showing that gay high school students are at greater risk of dropping out because of stigma and fear of violence, Chicago Public Schools leaders said Wednesday that they will recommend opening a campus aimed at these students.

Final approval of the School for Social Justice Pride Campus, designed as the city's first school for gay, lesbian and transgender teenagers, along with 17 other schools, is expected to come Oct. 22 when the Board of Education votes.

Schools chief Arne Duncan said he will ask the board to approve the schools, which are expected to open in the fall of 2009 and 2010, to give greater choice to parents and students. "We want to create great new options for communities that have been traditionally underserved," he said. "If you look at national studies, you see gay and lesbian students with high dropout rates. . . . I think there is a niche there we need to fill."

About 50 people attended a public hearing Wednesday night, with most supporting the school.Supporters said they envision a high school with a maximum of 600 students. It would have the same staffing and oversight requirements as other district schools. Students would be admitted from throughout the city on a lottery basis, officials said. A site has not been chosen.

Chad Weiden, an assistant principal at the Social Justice High School who would be principal at Pride Campus, said the school would incorporate lessons about sexual identity in literature and history classes and offer counseling. The school would be prohibited under state and federal laws from asking about a student's sexual identity, officials said.

A 2003 district survey shows that gay and lesbian youths are three times more likely to miss school because they feel unsafe. On Wednesday, the Gay Lesbian and Straight Education Network released a national survey of more than 6,000 middle and high school students that found that nearly 90 percent were harassed at school and about 61 percent felt unsafe.

At an earlier public hearing, some gay rights advocates said the school would segregate these students and that the district should work to foster acceptance.

Teens hit cyclist on purpose

LANCE BENZEL
THE GAZETTE

Teenagers joyriding in a stolen pickup intentionally slammed into a 64-year-old bicyclist in Colorado Springs Friday night, seriously injuring the man on his birthday, police said.

The hit-and-run attack occurred about 9:45 p.m. at 2132 E. Bijou St., near the intersection with Iowa Avenue just east of downtown.

Virgil Weixelman, of Colorado Springs, was westbound on his bicycle when a Dodge pickup drove up behind him and someone opened the passenger door, knocking him to the ground, said Colorado Springs police Sgt. Steve Noblitt.
The truck sped away, and was spotted minutes later driving with its headlights off.

Weixelman suffered a broken collar bone and other injuries and was admitted to a Colorado Springs hospital in serious condition Friday night, police said. An updated condition was not available Saturday.

Two teenage boys - ages 14 and 15 - were arrested Friday night on suspicion of first-degree assault on an at-risk person and placed in Spring Creek Youth Services Center, a juvenile jail, police said.

Four additional youths were in the pickup when it was pulled over on Union Boulevard 15 minutes after the hit-and-run.

Police plan to consult with prosecutors before pursuing other arrests.

The truck was stolen from the 1400 block of Potter Drive earlier Friday.

Police believe the teens may have been responsible for an attempted auto theft on Motor City Drive and another hit-and-run in which a pickup struck a parked vehicle on University Drive.

Witnesses told police they saw teens in a similar pickup drinking beer earlier Friday, officers said.

Teens use to think it was funny to wreck peoples mailboxes. Now they are hitting bicyclists this is sad. This says a lot about how children are being raised, in these dark days.

Chicago plans school for gay students


The Pride Campus of Social Justice High School would be open to all students in the city, and would probably end up being "majority straight", said Arne Duncan, the head of Chicago Public Schools.

But it would provide a supportive atmosphere for gay pupils, using prominent gays and lesbians - including James Baldwin and Gertrude Stein - in its curriculum.

Bill Greaves, the city's liason officer on lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender issues, said the school would "make sure these people are not invisible in history".

He said it was important that gay and lesbian historical figures were highlighted to give young gay people positive, successful role models.

The proposals were supported by most of the 50 Chicago residents who attended a public meeting on the city's education. They will be voted on by the Chicago board of education on October 22.

If approved, the Pride Campus would be unlikely to open until 2010 and would teach 600 students.

The scheme has already been tried elsewhere, with the Alliance High School in Milwaukee, Wisconsin, which considers itself "gay friendly" and has 125 students.

"We want to create great new options for communities that have been traditionally under-served," Mr Duncan said in the Chicago Tribune. "If you look at national studies, you see gay and lesbian students with high dropout rates... I think there is a niche there we need to fill."

I think there is a niche there we need to fill.

There is indeed a niche and it needs to be filled with the love of God not by giving them more rights than anyone else or treating them more special than anyone else.

Chambers' may appeal after his suit against God is tossed out

You can't sue God if you can't serve the papers on him, a Douglas County District Court judge has ruled in Omaha.

Judge Marlon Polk threw out Nebraska Sen. Ernie Chambers' lawsuit against the Almighty, saying there was no evidence that the defendant had been served. What's more, Polk found "there can never be service effectuated on the named defendant."

Chambers had sued God in September 2007, seeking a permanent injunction to prevent God from committing acts of violence such as earthquakes and tornadoes.

The senator said today that he is considering an appeal of Polk's ruling.

"It is a thoughtful, well-written opinion," Chambers said. "However, like any prudent litigator, I want to study it in detail before I determine what my next course of action will be."

Polk dismissed the lawsuit with prejudice, which means it can't be refiled. But his ruling can be appealed.

Although the case may seem superfluous and even scandalous to others, Chambers has said his point is to focus on the question of whether certain lawsuits should be prohibited.

"Nobody should stand at the courthouse door to predetermine who has access to the courts," he said. "My point is that anyone can sue anyone else, even God."

Chambers, a political independent who has served in the Nebraska Legislature for 38 years, said he decided to make that point after at least two attempts by other senators in the Legislature to limit "frivolous lawsuits."

"I was able to fend them off," Chambers said. "A lawsuit is not frivolous until a court declares it so."

The senator did have a day in court on the case. In August, he argued that Polk should take judicial notice of the existence of God. The senator cited the facts that U.S. currency says "In God We Trust," God is invoked during oaths in court hearings, and chaplains offer prayers before legislative bodies.

"If God is omnipresent," Chambers said in that August hearing, "then he is here in Douglas County and in this courtroom."

Polk was not persuaded.

His Tuesday ruling said Chambers' motion to take judicial notice of God "is denied as moot."

[nChrist]

Chambers will see GOD in court one day, but it will be GOD'S COURT, and JESUS CHRIST HIMSELF will be the HOLY JUDGE! Somehow, I don't think that Chambers will enjoy being the defendant that day.

The 'how-to' plan to criminalize Christianity
'Homosexuals know they must silence the church and that's what's behind this'

A growing movement that experts believe could end up in the criminalization of Christianity in the United States is being exposed in a new documentary being prepared for airing on October 26, officials at Coral Ridge Ministries have announced.

"Hate Crime Laws" is a half-hour exposé that shows how Christians in America, Canada, Australia, and Sweden have been arrested and prosecuted for expressing opinions that are rooted in the Bible regarding homosexual conduct, Islam or other topics about which Scriptures express clear teachings.

"On the surface, hate crime laws might sound like a good idea," said Jerry Newcombe, of Coral Ridge, who hosts the special. "After all, none of us advocates hatred or violence against another person. But if you look below the surface, suddenly you realize that these laws are really thought crime laws."

The program will air on The Coral Ridge Hour time slot and local airing times are available online.

WND has reported previously on hate crimes plans at the local level. In Colorado, for example, Gov. Bill Ritter signed into law earlier this year a plan that analysts believe effectively bans publication of the Bible in the state. The gender "anti-discrimination" law bans publication of statements that can be perceived as being negative toward those individuals choosing alternative sexual lifestyles.

WND also has reported when family groups with alarm have warned constituents about pending plans in Congress to institutionalize nationwide such laws.

Pro-homosexual advocates long have sought such a law, but opponents fear it would be used to crack down on those who maintain a biblical perspective that condemns homosexuality as sin. Observers note it would criminalize speech and thought, since other criminal actions already are addressed with current statutes.

Canada already has an aggressive "hate crimes" law, and there authorities have gone so far as to tell a Christian pastor he must recant his faith because of the legislation that bans statements that can be "perceived" as condemning another person.

Some states already have similar statutes, too, and in New Mexico, a photography company run by two Christians was fined $6,600 by the state for declining to provide services to a lesbian couple setting up a lookalike "marriage" ceremony.

The documentary cites the New Mexico case, as well as others.

"Canadian youth pastor Stephen Boissoin wrote a letter to the editor in 2002 criticizing homosexual activism and offering compassion and hope for people trapped by homosexuality. A human rights tribunal took notice and slapped him with a $5,000 fine, ordered him to apologize in writing, and snuffed out his free speech rights by placing a prior restraint on his public expression of any 'disparaging' opinions about homosexuality," Coral Ridge officials said.

"In Sweden, Pastor Ake Green spoke out against homosexual conduct in a 2003 sermon and was prosecuted for 'hate speech,'" the announcement continued.

In Australia, all it took to bring two ministers into a courtroom on charges of vilifying Islam was a seminar in their own church about Muslim beliefs.

The late Coral Ridge founder D. James Kennedy repeatedly had warned such developments would endanger Americans' civil rights.

"This will silence churches, which is their great desire – that churches ... may not be able to say anything negative about homosexuality," he said in an earlier presentation.

An online presentatiion on the issue features Tony Perkins, president of the Family Research Council.

"Homosexuals know they must silence the church in this country, and that's what's behind this," he warns.

Robert Knight, director of the Culture and Media Institute, also appears.

The goal, he said, is the "criminalization of Christianity. If you say traditional morality is now a form of hate and bigotry, and bring the full weight of the government, you have criminalized basic Christian moral doctrine."

Other guests include Richard Land, president of the Ethics and Religious Liberty Commission of the Southern Baptist Convention; Matt Barber, director of cultural affairs at Liberty Counsel; and Tristan Emmanuel, a Presbyterian minister who resigned from the pulpit to found the Equipping Christians for the Public Square Centre.

Opponents of such actions note the deceptiveness of some of the proposals. In Colorado, for example, "Section 8 of the bill makes it a crime to publish or distribute anything that is deemed a 'discrimination' against the homosexual and transsexual lifestyle," according to the Christian Family Alliance.

Mark Hotaling, executive director for the Alliance, said initially supporters and even some opponents of the bill explained that there was an exception for churches and church organizations. However, lawmakers then attached to the bill a state "safety clause" which is supposed to deal with laws that are fundamental to protecting the lives of residents.

That, he said, simply stripped away any potential allowances for churches and church groups.

"Anyone who claims that there's an exception for churches really doesn't know the ins and outs of the bill," Hotaling told WND.

"So the religious exemption is purely window dressing and very deceptive," he said. "The Word of God literally now is banned, and that's a legitimate slam-dunk First Amendment issue there."

President Bush has fended off at least one federal plan by deciding it was unnecessary and promising a veto if Congress would pass it.

After reading the posts of today and the ones that I missed yesterday, I can say that the only good news is that Jesus is coming back.
I sit on the bus twice a day and look around at all the people that are totally unaware of what is happening in their country, in the world and in their lives.  They sit there blinded and thinking that nothing is different today than it has always been and that life will just go on as it always has.  I know this by listening to their shallow conversations.  Yesterday I had an overwhelming urge to stand up and preach!  That would of course get me thown off the bus though and I need to get to work where hopefully I can do at least one thing to further the Kingdom of God.
I believe that we have started the count-down folks and indeed are well into it.  I'm ready.  Are you?

In Christ,
Grammyluv

[Soldier4Christ]

Amen, sister. I am definitely ready for our Lord to come.

I can actually see you standing in the middle of a bus preaching to others. Unfortunately I could also see you getting kicked off the bus, especially in the times that we live in. As it is said though, "as the Lord leads." There have been times that I have spoken out in such situations. Once I did so while checking out of the Wal Mart here. I think it was something very negative the cashier said about Jesus that set me off.
