European Union Agency Calls for a Re-definition of Marriage, Criminalization of “Homophobia”
A recent report from the Fundamental Rights Agency (FRA) of the European Union (EU) has called for binding EU regulations that would equalize the legal status of married heterosexual couples with that of same-sex and opposite-sex couples across Europe. It also recommends policies [...]
Below are excerpts from the Nation Catholic Register article: Same-Sex ‘Marriage’ and the Persecution of Civil Society. This is well worth the read.
Advocates of same-sex “marriage” present the idea as a step forward for tolerance and respect. But recent developments place that interpretation very much in doubt.Legalizing same-sex “marriage” is not a stand-alone policy, [...]
The following is from an interview with Archbishop Chaput of Denver in National Review Online.
I’ve written and spoken against the death penalty for more than 30 years. And along with most other American bishops, I opposed our intervention in Iraq. But these issues are different in kind, not merely degree, from the violence involved [...]
Another peg falls into place as the world lurches toward a version of 1984. The newspeak word for loss of civil liberties is “terrorism prevention.” Did you notice that - civil liberties are paired with terrorism - so then advocating for civil liberties would be advocating for terrorism? You gotta love the [...]
California Catholic Daily - “Obama’s radical abortion views”
Obama’s pro-abortion views are so extreme that, while an Illinois state senator, he refused to vote for a bill for three years that would have protected babies born alive after an abortion. The Infant Born Alive Act was passed in that state only after he left the senate. [...]

The Planned Parenthood Action Fund, the political arm of Planned Parenthood Federation of America, has endorsed presumptive Democratic presidential nominee Sen. Barack Obama, citing his 100 percent pro-abortion rating. The presidential endorsement is only the organization’s second in its history.

Sarah’s Law is an initiative in California to require consent before a minor is given an abortion. From the friendsofsarah.com:
In California, a girl under 18 years can’t get a flu shot, a cavity filled, or an aspirin dispensed by the school nurse without a parent knowing BUT a doctor can perform a surgical or [...]
The article excerpt below from Catholic Exchange, Catholicism - A Hate Crime in Canada?, describes the opening acts of a larger movement in the western world.
“If one, because of one’s sincerely held moral beliefs, whether it be Jew, Muslim, Christian, Catholic, opposes the idea of same-sex marriage in Canada, is that considered ‘hate’?”The question was [...]

Yesterday, I discussed how human fulfillment develops in regards to three universal needs - work, love, and God. A society can be diagnosed according to how well it hinders or fosters development in terms of these needs. It is important to realize that these ideas stem from a realist [...]
More evidence of bias in the media. I love statistics. More than 2/3 of the Obama descriptions are positive but less than 1/2 of those about McCain. Hmmm, does anyone else smell a liberal media bias?
McCain, not Clinton, got negative coverage
“But an exhaustive new study out today suggests that if [...]
Below are some quotes from a news story about McCain. I find his buckling to the thought police disturbing - more below after the quotes. McCain rejects pastor’s endorsement
Republican John McCain on Thursday rejected endorsements from two influential but controversial televangelists, saying there is no place for their incendiary criticisms of other faiths.

In case you have not heard, the Supreme Politburo Court for the Peoples Republic of California has ruled that the people in the state do not have the right to create a law that defines marriage as between a man and a woman. What’s more it was the ruling of only 4 people that [...]
The link below is to an interesting blog post on the concept of monoculturalism - a system that tries to conform everything to a monolithic model. It is interesting that the shallow “multiculturalism” is actually a cover for a rather dangerous system enforced sameness.

Video: Obama Jedi Mind Trick
From the ever worthwhile Creative Minority Report:
I can’t help but think about how far we’ve come in just one generation. Just 50 years ago there was a real discussion in our country over whether African Americans deserved civil rights. And there was a struggle and there was violence and it was [...]
Obama says domestic terrorist like pro-life Senator
Obama has a relationship with someone who reportedly said “I don’t regret setting bombs. I feel we didn’t do enough.” This individual was part of a 70’s group that bombed (among other targets) the New York City Police Headquarters, the U.S. Capitol Building, the Pentagon, the U.S. State [...]
Matt at Creative Minority Report writes about Obama: Babies and STD’s Are Punishments
Off the Politico.com I read how Obama was confronted by a pro-lifer in Pennsylvania recently. Obama, of course gave the usual tripe about how good people can disagree on the issue and how we are all for adoptions and all that.
But then [...]

A proposed law in California has come to my attention twice in the past 24 hours - once through a forwarded email from The Word Among Us and once from an article at California Catholic. It is an abortion family notification bill, requiring that a family member be informed of a pending [...]
