Miss California's church says pedophilia is central to the gay lifestyle...
I think the religious right's newest bimbo mascot isn't going to be doing any more media for a while after this revelation. Alvin from Holy Bullies and Headless Monsters (http://holybulliesandheadlessmonsters.blogspot.com/2009/04/why-does-miss-californias-church.html )found the following (and lots more) on the Web site of Miss California's church:

There are also moral repercussions stemming from homosexual behavior as evidenced by the fact that one third of all sexual crimes against children are committed by homosexuals even though they are representative of only one percent of the population. Pedophilia has even been called central to the gay lifestyle.
The agenda of the North American Man Boy Love Association (NAMBLA) is to lower the age of consent so that sex with children will be legal.

For anyone living under a rock, the homosexuality-pedophilia canard was debunked three decades ago. What's worse, the "research" Miss C's church is quoting - they also claim that 30% of gay men will die or get AIDS by the time they're 30 - appears to come from a known hate group (as designated by the Southern Poverty Law Center) led by one Paul Cameron, ( http://www.americablog.com/2007/04/american-family-association-family.html ) a quack researcher thrown out of all the top professional societies in his field.

So, Miss California may have been influenced in her attitudes towards gays by the research of a known hate group. I can't wait for her next interview.

Obama Condemns Intolerance, Homophobia at Holocaust Museum

Yesterday, Obama spoke at the U.S. Holocaust Memorial Museum's annual 'Days of Remembrance' ceremony in commemoration of the victims of the Holocaust:

"To this day, there are those who insist the Holocaust never happened - who perpetrate every form of intolerance — racism, antisemitism, homophobia, xenophobia, sexism, and more — hatred that degrades its victim and diminishes us all. Today, and every day we have an opportunity, as well as an obligation to confront these scourges. To fight the impulse to turn the channel when we see images that disturb us, or wrap ourselves in the false comforts that others' sufferings are not our own...

Heidi Montag, Miley Cyrus and Britney Spears ALL SUPPORT GAY MARRIAGE

Yes, Miley and Heidi are ardent Christians (Heidi is even a known Republican), but all three have come out in the wake of the much media hyped Miss America contestant (Carrie Prejean) who told celebrity blogger Perez Hilton she thought marriage should be between a man and woman.

Britney, Miley and Heidi all used Twitter to express their support for gay rights.

Britney wrote: "Love is love! People should be able to do whatever makes them happy!"

Miley wrote - Jesus loves you AND your partner and wants you to know how much He cares!"
Cyrus said. "Like I said, everyone deserves to be happy. I am a Christian and I love you - gay or not - BECAUSE you are no different than anyone else! We are all God's children."

Heidi wrote - "God says in the Bible that we should love our neighbor and He created us all as equals," she said on Twitter. "I know in my heart that gays and lesbians should have the same government rights that Spencer and I will when we get married. So, yes, this blonde Christian believes in gay marriage."

Retired Episcopal priest marries his life partner of 50 years

"Bob and I have said we've been on the cutting edge for all these years and we'd like to stop that," said Nolan, a retired Episcopal priest and Waltham native. "We've had to invent our life together from the start and it would have been easier if we had some agencies or people to learn from."

Yale's Conspiracy of Silence

Twelve years after Yale rejected a $7 million endowment for a gay student center, the school's Gay and Lesbian Association invited legendary playwright and gay-rights activist Larry Kramer back to campus to receive its first Lifetime Achievement Award.

NEGATIVE PUBLICITY is having an effect on both companies and individuals

The negative publicity is having an effect on both companies and individuals. Scott Eckern, artistic director of the California Musical Theatre in Sacramento, whose $1,000 donation in support of Prop. 8 was listed on ElectionTrack, chose to resign from his post this week to protect the theater from public criticism.

Karger says a "soft boycott" his group had started against Bolthouse Farms — which gave $100,000 to Prop. 8 — was dropped after he reached a settlement with the company.

Bolthouse Farms was to give an equal amount of money to gay rights political causes. The amount ultimately equaled $110,000.

Will Gay Marriage Pit Church Against Church?

RECENT ARTICLE FROM TIME -partners with CNN

The fight over gay marriage may be far from over, but already some conservative Christian leaders are looking beyond the courtroom dramas and the legislative infighting. The trouble they see is not just an America where general support for gay marriage will have driven a wedge between churches and the world, but between churches themselves.

IF YOU WANT TO TALK 'BIBLE'

IF YOU WANT TO TALK 'BIBLE'...

- The very people who condemn one "sinful" lifestyle are practicing another.

You see, in the Bible Jesus said:
"Every one who divorces his wife and marries another commits adultery, and he who marries a woman divorced from her husband commits adultery."Luke 16:18

What Christ had to say about it:
"Judge not, that you be not judged. For with the judgment you pronounce you will be judged, and the measure you give will be the measure you get. "Matthew 7:1-2

HOW TO FIGHT THE RELIGIOUS RIGHT - http://elroy.net/ehr/fighttheright.html 

YES YES YES

Yes! Yes! Yes!
By an overwhelming majority, most Americans are coming out loudly to support civil rights for all. Equality is one of the pillars this country was founded on and our fellow Americans agree!
A new poll from The New Times and CBS News finds that 42% of Americans nationwide now say same sex couples should be allowed to legally marry.
That's up nine points from last month, when 33% supported legalizing same sex marriage.

Wow. Wow. Wow.
Why such a huge jump in one month????
Support for same sex marriage is now at its highest point since CBS News starting asking about it in 2004. 28% percent say same sex couples should have no legal recognition - down from 35% in March - while 25% support civil unions, but not marriage, for gay couples.

Progress. Progress. Progress.
Civil marriage is not about religion. It is about full equality under the law.It will happen - and on a federal level. The question is not if it will happen but how soon?Demand marriage equality today!!!!

Rockstar Energy Drink's Assault on LGBT Rights and Autism

Rockstar Energy Drink's Assault on LGBT Rights and Autism - - http://www.thetruthaboutrockstar.com/

A few facts about Michael Savage. Better yet, here are a few comments directly from the mouth of Michael Savage:*

"You want me to tell you what makes me sick? When I see two puffy white males kissing each other, I want to puke. When I see two women kissing each other, on the lips, as lovers, I want to vomit."

"When you hear "human rights," think only one thing: someone who wants to rape your son. And you'll get it just right. OK, you got it, right? When you hear "human rights," think only someone who wants to molest your son, and send you to jail if you defend him. Write that down, make a note of it."

"...children's minds are being raped by the homosexual mafia, that's my position. They're raping our children's minds."

"You know what autism is? I'll tell you what autism is. In 99 percent of the cases, it's a brat who hasn't been told to cut the act out. That's what autism is."

Disgusting, right?

Michael Savage is reaping profits from the selling of Rockstar Energy Drink.

How about some facts about Savage's son, Russell Weiner?

Fact #1: At a Rockstar-sponsored concert at Concord Pavillion in 2004, Russell Weiner warmed up the crowd by chanting "Who's heterosexual and proud? If you're not, hopefully you will be soon."
Fact #2: Russell Weiner co-founded the conservative Paul Revere Society (with his father). In 2006, the organization had its tax-exempt status revoked.
Fact #3: Among the positions championed by the Paul Revere Society, and presumably by Russell Weiner? (1) Support for traditional marriage only; (2) deportation of all illegal immigrants; (3) eliminating bilingual education in all states; (4) requiring health tests for all foreign born people; (5) ending affirmative action; (6) closing off the borders; and (7) make tax cuts permanent and end class action lawsuits.

Russell Weiner, as CEO of Rockstar, makes a boatload of money off the beverage.

Do you like your money going to a family that champions hate?

Do you want your money going to a man who says that autism is a made up disease?

To a man who says that all LGBT people are sodomites who deserve to get AIDS?

If the answer is no, then don't buy Rockstar Energy Drink. And if you see a club - especially an LGBT club - serving it, please say something to the management.

If you want more information, check out www.thetruthaboutrockstar.com . The site isn't updated terribly frequently, but it has some basic information about the sordid story of the family that makes millions off of Rockstar Energy Drink.

UPDATE: Contact Rockstar CEO Russell Weiner ( http://gayrights.change.org/actions/view/demand_to_know_where_rockstar_energy_drink_stands_on_lgbt_rights ) and demand the beverage company say what it's stance on Savage's comments on LGBT rights and autism.

HOWARD STERN SUPPORTS GAY MARRIAGE!!!

Howard Stern issued a strong message of support for gay people on his show today, in only the way Howard can. Some of the dirty bits are edited out, but here is some of it:

"My feeling about gay people is that we have a responsibility not only to make gay marriage acceptable and to make gays feel accepted as much as heterosexuals...Gay people are downtrodden They are beaten. They are abused for their sexuality, and it goes across race. In the white community and the black community gay people are the bastards of the world. And in order for things to change, because any one of you could have gay children, or gay relatives, or gay friends...we have a responsibility to make this acceptable, to get all this bullshit so that some gay kid going to high school doesn't get the shit beaten out of him just because he's gay...I'm as heterosexual as they come. What is this hang-up about gay marriage? Who cares? Get on with your life!"
