It looks like Dan Savage is taking the National Organization for Marriage (NOM) President Brian Brown up on his offer for a Bible debate -- and the outspoken lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender (LGBT) rights advocate has picked an unusual setting, one in which personalizes himself and is on his turf and his rules. Nothing has changed for Savage. It is always his way and his perspective. 


"So, what I’d like to do is invite you to dinner," Savage reveals in a new podcast. "Bring the wife. My husband will be there. I will hire a video crew and we will video sort of an after dinner debate." 


Savage, who infamously launched a campaign to redefine former GOP presidential candidate Rick Santorum's last name into a neologism involving anal sex, then continued: "You have to acknowledge my humanity by accepting my hospitality, and I have to acknowledge yours by extending my hospitality to you." 


Earlier this month, Brown offered what he called a "public challenge" to Savage, after the sex advice columnist's controversial remarks about the Bible's stance on homosexuality at a student journalism convention in Seattle sparked an uproar. 


Savage's home dinner is not public it is hidden like most motives of the LGBT community. 


"I’m here, you name the time and the place and let’s see what a big man you are in a debate with someone who can talk back," Brown noted on NOM's blog at the time. "It’s easy to make high-school girls cry by picking on them. Let’s pick on someone our own size!" 


Brown continued: "I’m here, any time, any place you name, Dan Savage. You will find out out how venal and ridiculous your views of these things are if you dare to accept a challenge." The New Civil Rights Movement's David Badash reports that, if all goes according to plan, the debate will last one hour and will be released on YouTube, unedited. Savage has also invited New York Times scribe Mark Oppenheimer to ensure that the debate is "fair."

    A Catholic school board in Ontario will vote next week on a motion to fly the rainbow-colored homosexual pride flag at all board-run schools during the month of June. Halton Catholic District School Board (HCDSB) Trustee Brenda Agnew gave notice of her motion titled “supporting our diverse school community” during an April 6 board meeting. Quoting Pope Francis along with LGBT talking points about “equity and inclusion,” the motion calls for the Board’s Director of Education Pat Daly to “direct all HCDSB schools including the Catholic Education Centre to fly the Pride flag during the month of June starting with 2021.” The motion is expected to be voted on by the Board at their next meeting on April 20. With nine trustees, the motion requires five votes to pass. A tied vote results in a fail. The HCDSB states on its website that its mission is to provide “excellence in Catholic education by developing Christ-centred individuals enabled to transform society.” The Catholic Church, basing i...

    DENVER, CO ,  – A Colorado board has ruled that a Christian business owner must make wedding cakes for homosexual "marriages" despite his religious objections. Business owner Jack Phillips came under legal fire in 2012, when he refused to bake a cake for Dave Mullins and Charlie Craig , who had traveled to Massachusetts for a marriage license, and wanted to celebrate in their home state. They sued on the basis of a state law that prevents the application of religious beliefs if one owns a business. The Commission's ruling, which was issued verbally on Friday, orders Phillips to report every three months for the next two years on anti-discrimination training for his staff, and any customers who are refused service at his establishment. "I can believe anything I want, but if I'm going to do business here, I'd ought to not discriminate against people," said one of the Civil Rights Commission 's seven members in a public statement.

    Are Hate Tribunals Are Coming In Canada , it is considered discriminatory to say that marriage is between a man and a woman or that every child should know and be raised by his or her biological married parents.  It is not just politically incorrect in Canada to say so; you can be saddled with tens of thousands of dollars in legal fees, fined, and forced to take sensitivity training. Anyone who is offended by something you have said or written can make a complaint to the Human Rights Commissions and Tribunals. In Canada, these organizations police speech, penalizing citizens for any expression deemed in opposition to particular sexual behaviors or protected groups identified under “sexual orientation.” It takes only one complaint against a person to be brought before the tribunal, costing the defendant tens of thousands of dollars in legal fees. The commissions have the power to enter private residences and remove all items pertinent to their investigations, checkin...
