Gosford Anglican Priest Rod Bower says Jesus believed in marriage equality

Image
The Australian ABC reports that "Father Rod Bower is not your average priest. The Anglican Church minister is on a mission to keep religion relevant, and is using his parish notice board in Gosford on the NSW Central Coast as a way to get noticed." His most successful (and immoral and non-biblical) message was one about marriage equality . He is quoting a Stonewall's (pro-homosexual anti Christian organization) UK campaign that used UK buses to force the idea of immoral homosexuality onto everybody.

The ABC quotes Bower directly "What inspires me and us, as a faith community of course, is the life and teachings of Jesus .  So we stand for what He stood for, what we believe He stood for, which was justice and equality , compassion and a society that looks after the edges, that

A manager at the popular Canadian charity Free the Children who helped run the organization’s We Day events, spoke frequently at schools, and led youth trips overseas has resigned after  LifeSiteNews  reported he was moonlighting as a gay stripper. Michael Lorsch, former manager of Free the Children's leadership programs in Toronto , resigned Friday after  LifeSiteNews  ran two stories on  August 14  and  August 18  about his role as a performer in the homosexual-themed troupe Boylesque, which aims to put “male nudity and sexuality back center-stage where it belongs.” In a statement that Free the Children provided to  LifeSiteNews  Friday, Lorsch says he is stepping down for the sake of the organization. (Free the Children asked that the entire statement be included “instead of only running excerpts to suite [sic] your agenda.” The full letter is published below.)Lorsch, who performs under the stage name Mickey D. Liscious, is described on Boylesque’s website this way: “Th

U.S. Supreme Court building. (Photo credit: Wikipedia ) The U.S. Supreme Court ruled unanimously today that the state of Virginia does not have to begin sanctioning same-sex “marriages.” The stay comes after a panel of the Fourth Circuit Court of Appeals ruled 2-1 to  strike down the state's constitutional marriage protection amendment . The appeals court refused to grant a stay until the Supreme Court decided the case, a decision that would have forced Virginia clerks to begin issuing marriage licenses to same-sex couples  starting this week . However, one such clerk, Michele B. McQuigg , petitioned Chief Justice John Roberts to grant a stay. The order was allowed without dissent. “This is another indication that the rush to judgment declaring marriage to be unconstitutional is not only premature, but incorrect,” said Brian Brown, president of the  National Organization for Marriage . “The U.S. Supreme Court has determined that states have the right to define marri

The New York State Division of Human Rights (DHR) has ruled that the Roman Catholic owners of an Albany-area farm violated the civil rights of a lesbian couple when they declined to host the couple’s same-sex “marriage” ceremony in 2012. Robert and Cynthia Gifford, who own and operate Liberty Ridge Farm in Schaghticoke, were ordered by DHR Judge Migdalia Pares and Commissioner Helen Diane Foster to pay $10,000 in fines to the state and an additional $3,000 in damages to the lesbian couple, Jennie McCarthy and Melissa Erwin for “mental pain and suffering.”  Additionally, the Giffords must provide sensitivity training to their staff, and prominently display a  poster  highlighting state anti-discrimination laws. Robert and Cynthia Gifford The Giffords’ attorney, Jim Trainor, told LifeSiteNews that the two-year-legal drama and resulting fines all stemmed from a single brief phone call in 2012 that caught his clients off guard. “The entire interaction between the Complainan

The group is a member of the International Lesbian and Gay Association (ILGA) located in Geneva, Switzerland , and is linked with the LGBT Network based in Scotland . According to Vykhod's Facebook page , Judge Naidyonova of the Vasileostrovsky District Court of St. Petersburg ruled the group is a foreign agent because it is “engaged in political activities on behalf of foreign countries,” and is in violation of the laws against homosexual propaganda because its activities and publications discriminate against “persons with traditional sexual orientation.” Legislation passed

(Photo credit: Wikipedia ) A video produced for Lithuanian television stations by homosexual activists is being investigated by an ethics watchdog after TV three different TV stations refused to air it. “The video contains elements that need to be evaluated by experts. It will happen not earlier than September,” Zita Zamzickienė, Lithuanian Journalistic Ethics Inspector, said in a statement to Baltic News Service (BNS). The video spot was created by the Lithuanian Gay League, the country’s leading homosexualist lobby group, affiliated with the politically powerful ILGA Europe .

TV3 asked the office of the ethics inspector to

What was your experience like in the filming? Do you feel like the producers lived up to the expectations you had, how they pitched the show to you? It was pretty intense, but we knew that it had been. I had nothing but praise for the production company , and the way that they kept to the obligations that we asked them to keep. They were sensitive to my family. While they wanted to get the job done, but we had a couple of issues around how the children would be involved, and what that would look like, and they were absolutely brilliant. I cannot praise them enough for bending over backwards to work with us. So while it was intense—and it was very weird having people film pretty much everything that you do—at the same time they were a delight to have with us, everybody… was great to have around. It was hard work, but they made
