Friday News Wrap-up
Since there is no video this week, let me just write what I was going to include in the show. Anyone know how to use iMovie 10? It won’t play sound when scrolling over the clips when trying to make a new movie.
Hey, Christians, Hey: Gay Rights
You know, this is crazy, but I started this project/blog as a voice against what I took to be the wrong Christian stance against gay people. Now, my fellow Christians will tell you that they are acting out of love and reject the sin (gay sex), but not the people. The problem with that, as […]
Church and the Gays
I have been looking for a new church. Lately, something has been missing from my church. I can’t quite put my finger on it, but over 70% of my friends I made there have left for other churches because we all felt that “something” was off with the church. There were other things going on, […]
Learn from France, Christians: Gay Marriage
France’s Assembly (their Parliament), today, approved gay marriages and adoptions for France. I am unclear as to whether or not that is enough of if the President has to sign it into law. Either way, it appears that France loves the gays enough to let them get married and adopt kids. France has had civil […]
When Power of Attorney Ain’t Enough
I have a friend who argued with me once that gays shouldn’t be afforded marriage or marriage rights without calling it something else, such as a civil union, even though that would potentially violate the 14th Amendment to the U.S. Constitution. “Don’t call it marriage.” I explained that there are many rights to which married […]
Sue Everhart Is Not So Smart
I read about this story on ThinkProgress and busted out laughing just at the headline. I didn’t read anything else about it, but that article lists her Facebook status about it and it made me shake my head amidst giggle fits. This woman is the head of Georgia’s Republican Party. The Republican Party has lately […]
Keene Point of View 03292013
HAPPY GOOD FRIDAY! This week is just one topic – MARRIAGE EQUALITY! It was the hot topic in the news, so why not piggyback on it? 🙂 This is my take on marriage equality and I review the Bible, tradition, and explain why it *HAS* to be marriage instead of states’ rights and civil unions.
A Christian’s Call: Caring for the Environment
I did a devotion yesterday and it spoke of caring for the environment. The author spoke of a woman who didn’t feel it was her Christian duty to care for the environment. I’m familiar with this way of thinking. I’ve never thought that way, but when I did speak up against oil drilling in wetlands […]
What’s Next for Gays?
The Supreme Court of the United States (SCOTUS) is hearing arguments for and against Proposition 8 from California, which banned same-sex marriages after the state issued 1,800 of them. SCOTUS is also hearing arguments for and against the Defense of Marriage Act. Both of these landmark decisions will be reached in June, no doubt, and […]
Children: The Case Against Gay Marriage
I was reading this and came across the following quote: Urging the Supreme Court to reverse those rulings, Prop 8’s defenders argue that the state has a legitimate reason for treating same-sex couples differently: only couples consisting of a man and a woman can produce children. “This indisputable difference between same-sex and opposite-sex relationships demonstrates that […]
