Christians convicted in Waco

Freedom of Speech
Nearly 20 Christians who protested in front of the Planned Parenthood of Central Texas were found guilty of violating a trumped-up city ordinance. The Christians were cited in March for refusing to disperse in front of the abortion clinic, across the street from a school.

Pastor John Collier told the Waco City Council, "Jesus said, 'Go into all the world,' and that includes the sidewalks in front of Planned Parenthood, Waco's high schools, the homosexual churches, and all the other places that have declared the Law of God unwelcome."

The 501c3 Problem

Freedom of Speech
In Bob Jones University v. United States (461 U.S. 574), the U.S. Supreme Court noted the following about the government’s intended purpose for the 501c3: The Court asserts that an exempt organization must “demonstrably serve and be in harmony with the public interest,” must have a purpose that comports with “the common community conscience,” and must not act in a manner “affirmatively at odds with [the] declared position of the whole Government.” Taken together, these passages suggest that the primary function of a tax-exempt organization is to act on behalf of the Government in carrying out governmentally approved policies.

Standing Between Butcher and Baby

Pro-Life News
Is the un-prosecuted murder of over 43 million babies a light and transient cause? The time is closing before we can no longer reign in the judicial, the executive and legislative branches, state and federal, of civil government. Before long it will be a "long train of abuses and usurpations" which gives rise to our "duty to throw off such Government." Our personal, individual duty has not yet arisen, since as of late, no state has even attempted to stand between the butcher and the baby.

Seeing Reality Clearly

Freedom of Speech
What many fail to ascertain in today’s compromised church, is that false teaching almost always accompanies some truth – just enough to lend the wolf credibility and deceive the flock. The wolf doesn’t run at the herd growling, howling and snapping his jaws. He eases in looking humble, loving and kind; acting and sounding just like one of the sheep.

What Ever Happened to
Pro-Life Conservatives?

Commentary
Conservative evangelicals who oppose abortion are about to throw in their lot with George W. Bush for another four years in the White House. I don’t get it. It was not so long ago that pro-lifers were an uncompromising bunch of people. Abortion was an evil to be opposed on every front. But today most evangelical voters have fallen for the “I’m pro-life because I say so” scam.

The Parties of Big Government

Politics
George W. Bush has discarded traditional Republican qualms against big government, replacing the old Democrat model of tax-and-spend with his own model of borrow-and-spend. This administration and the Republican congress have presided over the biggest, most reckless deterioration of America's finances in history. In other words, forget the debate about whether Mr. Bush and his Administration have been conservative. In terms of their fiscal irresponsibility, and what the GOP used to stand for, they are not even Republicans!

Former ambassador Alan Keyes, who officially accepted the Republican nomination for the U.S. Senate in Illinois this week, begs President George W. Bush to resist the urge to appoint judicial nominees who do not "share our reverence for our Declaration and our Constitution."

Keyes said, "Please, Mr. President, I beg of you, do not surrender your principles in this vital cause," the declaration continued. "I tremble for our country if more [liberal] justices ... are appointed on your watch."

State fights Feds in Jesus name

Freedom of Speech
South Carolina has joined the Town of Great Falls' appeal of a federal court’s order preventing the town from mentioning the name of Jesus Christ in prayers at town meetings. A three-judge panel of the Fourth US Circuit Court of Appeals on July 22nd ruled that the town council no longer could invoke the name of Jesus at government meetings. The court's ruling came after witch high priestess Darla Kaye Wynne sued the town in 2001 after the council refused to open meetings only with nonsectarian prayers. (John 14:6)

Republicans to Conservatives: Drop Dead!

Politics
On the 2004 Republican National Convention Website people are asked to participate in the development of the GOP Platform. To do this, there is a drop-down menu which lists 20 different subjects including "other." You can click on a subject which is "most important." But, missing from this list of subjects is "Abortion" or "Pro-life." There is no such category. More than 40 million innocent, unborn babies have been slaughtered by abortion since 1973 when the Supreme Court "legalized" such killing. President Bush says he's pro-life. But there is no specific category where a person can say that.

Bush Requests $425M for Population Control

President Bush did the right thing on UNFPA, says Ed Szymkowiak, national director of STOPP International. "But what many others, even, unfortunately, many self-proclaimed pro-lifers, are missing, or ignoring, the fact that Bush himself requested $425 million for USAID population control programs for fiscal year 2004. That's a lot more tax money than the $34 million he withheld from UNFPA this year, and it is the same amount appropriated to USAID during the last year Clinton was in office," Szymkowiak said.

Bush’s “Faith-Based Initiative”
Un-Godly and Un-Constitutional

Politics
Nowhere in the Bible does God’s Word allow any civil government to fund “faith-based” groups. Nowhere in the U.S. Constitution is there any authorization for the Federal-funding of “faith-based” groups. And in purely practical and political terms, for any Christian group to receive Federal welfare would involve them in a bureaucratic nightmare, wrap them in miles of Federal red tape and lead to such things as IRS audits and much, much more Federal intrusion.
