False Prophet Fred Phelps and The First Amendment

Funeral Protests

It's just amazing that the ACLU joined forces with the Phelps gang on this one: Judge: Mo. funeral protest ban unconstitutional By CHRIS BLANK - Associated Press Writer JEFFERSON CITY, Mo. -- A federal judge Monday ruled that Missouri laws restricting protests near funerals are unconstitutional. Missouri legislators passed two laws in 2006 in response to protests at servicemembers' funerals by members of Westboro Baptist Church of Topeka, Kan. The church contends the deaths are God's punishment for the U.S. tolerating homosexuality. U.S. District Judge Fernando Gaitan ruled the … [Read more...]

May 4, 2010 By Randy Thomas

From AlbertMohler.com: We have seen this coming for some time now. The public space has been closing, especially when it comes to Christian speech — and especially when that speech is about homosexuality. Now, a Christian preacher has been arrested in Britain for the crime of saying in public that homosexuality is a sin. This arrest is more than a news event — it is a signal of things to come and an announcement of a new public reality. Even if all charges are dropped against this preacher, the signal is sent and the message is clear. The act of Christian preaching is now a potential … [Read more...]

Rachel Maddow, Gay Pride or Revenge?

January 12, 2010 By Randy Thomas

Visit msnbc.com for breaking news, world news, and news about the economy The last question she asks in the above clip is ... "Much more to come. But it is a rather unsettling beginning for the opponents of gay marriage, that their first victory was earning the right to not be seen in public making their case. I know there's gay pride, but isn't there anti-gay pride too?" Ms. Maddow is obviously making a rhetorical stab at those she has no interest in describing accurately. I personally don't know whether it is best to YouTube-ize such an important trial or not. There isn't any right … [Read more...]

Ugandan Government Poised to Harshly Prosecute Homosexuals

October 19, 2009 By Randy Thomas
Uganda

The Ugandan government is seeking to further stigmatize and criminalize (to death or extreme punishment) people who deal with homosexuality. It seems that the government has no respect for freedom.  Especially as it pertains to free will or self-determination on what a person does with their own same sex attractions. This sweeping, hateful, public policy being promoted threatens anyone struggling with same sex attractions, and their loved ones, with death or imprisonment. I left the following message on Throckmorton's blog five days ago: I am totally speaking on my own behalf … [Read more...]
