Mark's Views, Perhaps — from behind my eyeballs
Seven words from his Selma speech:
If Senator Obama’s father’s fatherhood began at Obama’s conception, when did Obama become a human being?
And if Senator Obama had been aborted at conception, would that have been a pro-choice action or a murder or both?
Or did the senator’s tongue merely slip?

Christian belief a ‘hate crime’ under plan:
| Americans worried about new “hate crime” legislation that could be used to make criminals of those whose religious faith doesn’t endorse homosexuality could be facing a two-pronged attack, according to groups that monitor those developments.
The newest threat is being prepared by U.S. Rep. John Conyers, the head of the House Judiciary Committee, whose work is being called “The Local Law Enforcement Hate Crimes Prevention Act of 2007,” according to the Rev. Ted Pike, of the National Prayer Network. He said a letter to other members of the House was intercepted by Focus on the Family and indicated that it “gives the federal government even more power to create a bias motivation justice system, turning America into a police state.” Michael Marcavage, director of Repent America and Pike both had alerted their constituencies earlier to H.R. 254, or the David Ray Hate Crimes Prevention Act, which could create “anti-hate” restrictions and penalties. Marcavage told WND that plan would invert American justice, and instead of requiring evidence it would leave it to someone who claims to be offended to determine whether a “crime” has been committed. “Truth is not allowed as evidence in hate crimes trials. … A homosexual can claim emotional damage from hearing Scripture that describes his lifestyle as an abomination. He can press charges against the pastor or broadcaster who merely reads the Bible in public. The ‘hater’ can be fined thousands of dollars and even imprisoned!” Marcavage said. |
I assume this would impact Muslims also.
Or is this story just “another” case of WorldNutDailyness (as many people view that site)?
