Openly-gay Jussie Smollett charged with filing false police report for staged MAGA attack

Image
The 'homophobic,' pro-Trump assault of openly-homosexual Jussie Smollett that gripped the mainstream media never happened, according to Chicago police and prosecutors who are charging the Empire actor with staging the incident for publicity and career advancement. The 36-year-old actor says he was assaulted in Chicago on January 29, when two masked men allegedly shouted racial and 'homophobic' epithets, beat him to the point of fracturing a rib, put a rope around his neck, and poured bleach on him. “This is MAGA country,” they allegedly yelled, a reference to President Donald Trump’s “Make America Great Again” slogan. Numerous Democrats, liberal media figures, and Smollett himself aggressively pushed the narrative that the incident was part of a wave of hate inspired by the president. But critics immediately questioned the likelihood of violent Trump supporters roaming around the streets of strongly-Democratic Chicago, suspicions that intensified after police failed t...

Christian governor-candidate takes heat for ad highlighting GOP governor’s pro-LGBT record

Image
An Illinois legislator seeking to beat the pro-abortion Republican governor in his party’s primary released an ad highlighting his radical pro-abortion and pro-transgender beliefs, igniting fury from national media, leftists, and establishment Republicans. Gov. Bruce Rauner , a liberal Republican, signed a law in 2017  expanding forced taxpayer funding of abortion . Rauner supports transgender bathrooms, is squishy on LGBT issues, and supports liberal immigration policies. So Jeanne Ives , who currently represents the state’s 42nd district, released an ad showing people “thanking” Rauner for what he’s done for them. “Thank you for signing legislation that lets me use the girls’ bathroom,” says a man wearing makeup and a dress. “Thank you for making all Illinois families pay for my abortions,” a woman wearing a pink “pussy hat” says. A young man with a bandana covering much of his face – a seeming representation of the “anti-fa” movement – “thanks” Rauner for making Il...

Sex education? No, we’re witnessing the pursuit of ignorance on matters of sexuality

A symbolic marriage cake in favor of allowing gay marriages in Italy not only to heterosexual couples but to lesbian and gay ones as well. Picture by Giovanni Dall'Orto, January 26 2008. (Photo credit: Wikipedia ) If you can trace your family tree back far enough, you'll probably encounter people who had no formal education , owned no books, perhaps couldn't read and write . But your uneducated ancestors knew what "marriage" meant-- which is more than you can say for the typical Ivy League professor today. Your "benighted" ancestors would be both absolutely astonished that the literati of the early 21st century cannot figure out what was so obvious to them, centuries ago, and utterly appalled by the bogus unions that our contemporaries accept as marriages.  (By the way, I am not just thinking only of same-sex unions . I also have in mind the "open" marriages and the deliberately barren unions, the Hollywood -style serial marriages, th...

Gay couples can ‘marry’ before law takes effect, Obama-appointed judge rules

Image
CHICAGO, February 24, 2014 ( LifeSiteNews.com ) – A federal judge appointed by Barack Obama has ruled that homosexuals in Chicago can get “married” starting immediately – even though the state law recognizing same-sex “marriage” has not yet gone into effect. The bill creating same-sex “marriage” in Illinois , which proponents dubbed the “Religious Freedom and Marriage Fairness Act,” does not provide for homosexual nuptials to be recognized until June 1. U.S. District Judge Sharon Johnson Coleman, an Obama appointee But U.S. District Judge Sharon Johnson Coleman said she decided to allow homosexual couples to obtain marriage licenses at once, because there had been no legal objection in her court and homosexuals had “already suffered from the denial of their fundamental right to marry.” Another federal judge ruled last year that homosexuals who had medical conditions that would likely allow them to die could receive a marriage license before the law had formally been c...

Did Jesus condemn Homosexuality?

Image
Adam and Eve (Photo credit: Wikipedia ) Pro-homosexual writers make a great deal of the fact that Christ did not mention homosexuality in any of His recorded teachings. Jesus also didn't speak about smoking or cocaine. Nevertheless, our Lord was not silent on the subject of sex. He condemned adultery ( Matt. 5:27–28), and exalted the heterosexual relationship God created when He made Adam and Eve (Matt. 19:3–6; Mark 10:6–9). From the time of creation God’s standard has been male with female, which our Lord clearly endorsed. Ryrie, C. C. (1991). Biblical answers to tough questions (p. 118). Chicago, IL : Moody Press .

What does the New Testament say about Homosexuality?

Image
In Romans 1:18–32 Paul writes of the wrath of God that has been revealed against all ungodliness and unrighteousness. The reason for His wrath is that people have perverted the revelation of God. This perversion substituted the glory of the true God with gods made in images of people and birds and animals and crawling creatures, which people themselves made. As a result, God passed sentence on the world. Three times Paul says that God gave people over to various lusts and perversions, which include homosexuality and lesbianism (Rom. 1:24, 26, 28). “For this reason God gave them over to degrading passions; for their women exchanged the natural function for that which is unnatural, and in the same way also the men abandoned the natural function of the woman and burned in their desire toward one another, men with men committing indecent acts and receiving in their own persons the due penalty of their error” (Rom. 1:26–27). Notice the words Paul uses to describe lesbianism and homosexua...

What does the Old Testament say about homosexuality?

Image
Homosexuality is mentioned eight times in the Scriptures (four in each testament), and lesbianism (homosexuality between females) one time. In no instance is it commended; instead it is always described as wrong and unnatural. The first instance, the account of Lot in Sodom , is debated as to whether or not it refers to homosexuality (Gen. 19:4–11). With the growing prominence of the homosexual movement, it is now being said that the sin was not homosexuality but inhospitality and gang rape. The claim goes that when Lot received the two angels (who appeared as men and were strangers to the residents of Sodom), he angered the locals because no one had examined their credentials. So when the locals demanded to “know” them (v. 5), they only wanted to get acquainted with them. Lot, however, was bound to be hospitable to the strangers and to protect his guests, so he offered to sacrifice his daughters to the crowd. And had not the angels blinded the men of the city, then gang rape would h...

LGBT activists calling for boycott on Salvation Army's fundraising

The Salvation Army logo (Anglophone Version) (Photo credit: Wikipedia ) The Salvation Army red kettles that sit outside storefronts during the Christmas season are causing some gay groups to see red. LGBT (lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender) activists are calling for a boycott of the Salvation Army’s annual red kettle drive because of its stance on homosexuality. Bil Browning, writing on the LGBQT blog The Bilerico Project , said, “As the holidays approach, the Salvation Army bell ringers are out in front of stores dunning shoppers for donations. If you care about gay rights, you'll skip their bucket in favor of a charity that doesn't actively discriminate against the LGBT community. The Salvation Army has a history of active discrimination against gays and lesbians.” Meanwhile, a Facebook page called “ Boycott The Salvation Army” now has over 2,000 likes. The description of the page reads, “The Salvation Army is not only a charity, but an evangelical church promoting ...
