More than 200 Pastors Jumped into Politics this Year

Posted on

“While some people try and paint it as extraordinary, it’s not. It’s actually a very normal American thing – people who love our country and who love God and love other people to get engaged in the political process. I’m excited it’s happening. It should be a conversation that’s bubbling up around the country,” stated Lankford. www1.cbn.com/cbnnews/politics/2016

Calvary Chapel’s Rob McCoy took the plunge by running for City Council in Thousand Oaks, California. I’m in exile in my own state and my own nation and this is a directive that God gave me, praying for the peace of the city locally,” McCoy explained. McCoy joins more than 200 pastors who jumped into politics this year alone.  A couple hundred others plan to join the ranks next year. They’re popping up all over the country from local school boards to Congress.

He believes the time for sitting on the sidelines is over.  He points his congregation to the biblical story of Shammah whose job was to defend a small lentil bean patch against the Philistines. “You can change the city council. You can change the school board. You can make a difference right where you are. You can affect your schools; you can affect your sports teams. You have the ability to affect your Kiwanis, your rotary. Change your bean patch. Quit whining

Assisted Suicide in California – This is an Unjust Law!

Posted on

With the new “End of Life Options” law we are crossing a line — from being a society that cares for those who are aging and sick to a society that kills those whose suffering we can no longer tolerate. www.catholiceducation.org/assisted-suicide/abp-gomez

p-Archbishop-Jose-Gomez8-285x-memeOur government leaders tell us that granting the right to choose a doctor-prescribed death is compassionate and will comfort the elderly and persons facing terminal and chronic illness. But killing is not caring. True compassion means walking with those who are suffering, sharing their pain, helping them bear their burdens. Loving your neighbor as yourself is not a duty we fulfill by giving our neighbor a lethal dose of pills.

Assisted suicide represents a failure of solidarity and will only increase the sense of isolation and loneliness that many people already feel in our society. With this new law, we are abandoning our most vulnerable and frail neighbors — dismissing them as “not worthy” of our care and as a “drain” on our limited social resources.

This new law will worsen the inequalities in our health care system. The poor and elderly already have far fewer treatment options and far less access to palliative care and nursing home services.

Judge Faces Removal, $40K Fine Because of Her Beliefs About Marriage

Posted on

The young man who answered identified himself as a reporter from the local newspaper. He told Neely he was doing a story on the administrative challenges of the recent legalization of same-sex marriage in Wyoming. He asked the town judge whether she was “excited” about the prospect of solemnizing same-sex marriages. dailysignal.com/2016/06/13/3-people-behind-the-effort-to-remove-judge-for-her-views-on-marriage

“I will not able to do them,” Neely replied, according to the story Donovan later wrote. “We have at least one magistrate who will do same-sex marriages, but I will not be able to.” Neely cited her religious belief that marriage is the union of one man and one woman.

As Pinedale’s full-time municipal judge, Neely, who is in her early 60s, isn’t authorized to solemnize marriages. As a part-time circuit judge in Wyoming’s Sublette County, her lawyers say, agreeing to officiate at a wedding was up to her—as it is for other circuit judges.

Confronting death face-to-face, and granted a reprieve with a second chance at life, changes a man. Just ask Bill Bourland. Diagnosed with a deadly disease he couldn’t pronounce, the Tucson, Arizona resident was told he couldn’t fight it either. Yet today, thanks to the dogged determination of his wife, an almost-eerie conversation with a neighbor and a doctor willing to use adult stem cell treatment when others wouldn’t, Bill lives a full, happy and healthy life. www.youtube.com/watch?v=HI3bGSl-S5o

Judges swift Dismissal Sends Strong Message to Planned Parenthood and Political Cronies

Judge dismisses bogus charge against Planned Parenthood investigator David Daleiden

10 Comments

The videos released by the Center for Medical Progress following years of undercover investigation at Planned Parenthood ignited a firestorm of controversy. Planned Parenthood executives and officials were found to be allegedly engaging in the illegal sales of the body parts of aborted babies. liveactionnews.org/judge-dismisses-bogus-charge-

p-david-Daleiden3-meme-285xNow, Daleiden has finally been vindicated, as a Harris County judge has dropped a charge against him for allegedly seeking to purchase human organs. In a statement, the Center for Medical Progress applauded the ruling, calling the charge against Daleiden “bogus”.

The dismissal of the first indictment today sends a strong message to Planned Parenthood and their political cronies that colluding to suppress the First Amendment rights of citizen journalists will never work. The Center for Medical Progress follows all applicable laws in the course of its investigative journalism work and as more details about Planned Parenthood’s contracts for aborted baby parts come to light, it’s clear that Planned Parenthood and their business partners like StemExpress are the ones who are guilty of trafficking in human body parts.

Law Center Wins Huge Victory for Free Speech and Unborn Babies

Posted on

In a huge victory for free speech and unborn babies, United States District Judge Nancy Torresen, yesterday, issued a preliminary injunction barring the Maine Attorney General and City of Portland police officers from enforcing the Noise Provision of the Maine Civil Rights Act (“Act”).  Under the Act, after being warned by a police officer, it is illegal to make noise that can be heard inside an abortion clinic with the intent to interfere with a medical procedure.

Kate Oliveri, the Thomas More Law Center Trial Counsel handling the case, commented, “This is a victory regardless of whether you acknowledge that unborn children possess lives worth defending. Free speech rights are central to maintaining a free society and the court took a huge step toward protecting those rights for all citizens of Maine.”

The Planned Parenthood facility, located on a loud and busy thoroughfare in downtown Portland, has been the focus of pro-life counselors and prayer groups for the last several years.

They will Stop Grinding Newborn Chicks to Death!

Posted on

On the day they’re born, all the fluffy male chicks born to egg-laying hens at hatcheries are gruesomely killed — usually by being run, while conscious, through what is essentially a blender. That’s because they’re useless to the industry. They can’t grow up to lay eggs, and they weren’t bred to be the fast-growing chickens sold as meat. www.washingtonpost.com/news/animalia\

“United Egg Producer’s decision to support the elimination of newborn male chick culling is a historic tipping point and will prevent the suffering of hundreds of millions of animals each year,” What is clear is that the United States may be among the first nations to do away with male chick culling.

Yet thousands of unborn children are dismembered each day while conscious even though they can grow up to productive and valuable citizens.

Comcast Refuses to Remove Racist and Exploitive Pornography

Posted on

The National Center on Sexual Exploitation sent a letter [Trigger Warning: explicit pornographic film titles offered by Comcast listed within the letter] to Comcast executives to bring their attention to this issue and to inform them that they could be in violation of the law for producing illegal obscene material.

To Comcast, valuable ‘customer choice’ means promoting and selling videos glorifying themes of incest, racism, sexism, prostitution, and exploitation. In addition to its vast on-demand pornography offerings, Comcast provides copious amounts of pornography via Playboy, Vivid, Hustler, and TEN subscription channels. All in all, there are, by one review conducted in April 2016, 515 X-rated offerings on XFINITY/Comcast.

On June 3, 2016, Comcast Senior Executive Vice President, David Cohen, wrote back and refused to remove Comcast’s offensive and harmful pornographic content. “Ultimately, Comcast’s goal is to provide our customers with choice and a wide range of programming options,” Mr. Cohen wrote. This anemic defense of consumer “choice” does not mask Comcast’s flagrant social irresponsibility, open misogyny, and raw corporate greed.

Clinton Salutes Abortionists – Calls for More Federal Funding of Planned Parenthood

Posted on

In her speech to the Planned Parenthood Action Fund on Friday afternoon, Democratic presidential candidate Hillary Clinton saluted an abortionist Dr. Amna Dermish, caught saying that she will “strive” to remove an unborn child’s skull and brain intact. Clinton began her 27-minute speech to the Planned Parenthood Action Fund on Friday afternoon, by singling out abortion “providers like Dr. Amna Dermish. www.lifesitenews.com/news/hillary-clinton-salutes-abortionist

p-hillary-Clinton5-285xDuring a meeting at an abortion conference on October 12, 2014, Dermish laughed as she said removing an aborted baby’s skull and brain intact will “give me something to strive for.” “I always try to keep the trunk intact,” she told CMP lead investigator David Daleiden, who posed as Biomax purchaser “Robert Sarkis.”

While Clinton saved her harshest words for Trump, other Republicans weren’t spared. “If right-wing politicians actually cared about protecting women’s health, they’d join me in calling for more federal funding for Planned Parenthood,” she said. www.bloomberg.com/politics/articles/2016-06-10/clinton

Kristin Hawkins, president of Students for Life, told TheBlaze that it speaks to Clinton’s priorities that “her first stop is here, with Planned Parenthood.” www.theblaze.com/stories/2016/06/10/clinton

Clinton dominated fundraising from the group, (Planned Parenthood) which performs more than 300,000 abortions each year, throughout the campaign, raising 20 times more money than the rest of the presidential field combined. freebeacon.com/issues/pro-lifers-protest

 

Donald Trump “I’m With You (Pro-Lifers) 100%

“I am with you 100 percent,” Mr. Trump told the hundreds gathered there.

Presumptive GOP presidential nominee Donald Trump assured Christian conservatives Friday that he will fight for “our shared values” and warned that Hillary Clinton will push policies that ignore the “will of the people” and crush working families. www.lifenews.com/2016/06/10/donald-trump – “We Must Protect the Sanctity of Life!”

Republican U.S. presidential candidate Donald Trump.

Recently, Trump announced a list of 11 potential Supreme Court nominees — a list pro-life and conservative groups praised for having potential judges who would be Constitutionalists.

Trump presents a stark contrast on abortion to pro-abortion Democrat Hillary Clinton. Trump has specifically promised he would sign a bill as president to de-fund Planned Parenthood. In an interview with David Brody of CBN, Trump made that promise: Donald Trump: “Yes, because as long as they do the abortion I am not for funding Planned Parenthood… As long as they’re involved with abortion, as far as I’m concerned forget it, I wouldn’t fund them regardless. I would defund Planned Parenthood because of their view and the fact of their work on abortion…. I am for defunding Planned Parenthood as long as they are involved with abortion.”
