Why draw a line with Gay Marriage?

Image
Columnist E.J. Dionne of The Washington Post may sometimes be infuriating, but he is never unintelligent. After graduating from Harvard, Dionne was named a Rhodes Scholar at Oxford where he earned a doctorate in sociology. He is always thoughtful, analytical, and polite. He is decidedly liberal when comes to both politics and theology, but he also seems to find conservatives to be interesting, if sometimes downright dangerous. Even more recently, he seems to find conservative Christians to be perplexing. In a column published Sunday, Dionne asks about our opposition to same-sex marriage: “Why draw the line here?” It’s a fair question. Dionne, a practicing Catholic, as they say, wonders aloud why many of us cannot just acknowledge same-sex marriage and move on. Dionne goes further and argues that he does not see conservative Christians reacting with the same “ferocious response” to divorce or adultery. He wants to know why we are demanding exemptions from anti-discrimination laws and po...

Fostering Parents rejected for not supporting LGBT ideology

Image
A Perth couple who believe homosexuality is a sin that can be overcome is locked in a court battle with a West Australian organization that denied their application to become foster parents. Byron and Keira Hordyk, who are devout Christians attached to the Free Reformed Church of Baldivis, claim Wanslea Family Services discriminated against them on the grounds of their religious conviction. Wanslea Family Services is discriminating against their religious beliefs. They acted illegally and discriminatory towards this couple.  An earlier attempt by the couple to have their claim heard by the Equal Opportunity Commission was knocked back after the Commissioner dismissed their complaint as "lacking in substance", but it was referred to the State Administrative Tribunal at the Hordyks' request. DON'T SUPPORT LGBT IDEOLOGY - YOUR'E DANGEROUS? The Hordyks' opinions on LGBTQI issues did not meet the 'providing a safe living environment' competenc...

Get on the Right Side of History or Die: An Open Challenge to Christian Higher Education

Image
Over and over again, the secular age of the 21st century presents Christians with a deadly logic: keep up or die. This requires the refashioning and remaking of Christian doctrine, theology, and convictions all in the name of cultural relevance—either get on the right side of history or you will be history. These kinds of arguments especially arise over issues of gender and sexuality. Just last week, this threat emerged in the form of an article at Religion News Service by David P. Gushee. The headline of the article read, “Christian Higher Ed Can’t Win the LGBTQ Debate Unless it Transforms.” Headlines can often tell us quite a bit about the author and his or her argument, and this headline is no different. Apparently, the headline indicates that there is a LGBTQ debate taking place within Christian institutions of higher learning and those institutions are losing the battle. The only hope for victory, according to Gushee, is to undergo theological transformation—or, to put it...

Qld to outlaw 'gay conversion therapy'

Image
Practices intended to change or suppress someone's sexual orientation or gender identity will be outlawed in Queensland, Australia. This is a Labor Government who are pro-homosexual marriage and pro-homosexual adoption who are not even allowing a confused child to receive counseling after being influenced by the LGBT agenda. THIS IS CHILD ABUSE The confused health minister Steven Miles said the following; "So-called gay conversion therapies will be made illegal and health practitioners caught carrying them out will face fines and time behind bars under a new law.  The practices are immoral, unethical and have long been discredited by the medical sector." Yet many would say homosexual and gay marriage is immoral and wrong.   On what basis does Steven Miles make his immoral claims? There are many who want to leave the homosexual lifestyle choice and need help but this minister has banned all help. This minister will apply a massive financial penalty if you do...

Canada’s largest newspaper: Catholic schools must back LGBT ‘rights’ or risk losing public funding

Image
Canada’s largest newspaper threatened Catholic schools in an editorial that unless they get in line with homosexuality and transgender “rights,” support will only grow for an end to their public funding. The Toronto Star’s Monday editorial also excoriated beleaguered Toronto Catholic District School Board (TCDSB) trustee Mike Del Grande and called for the board to censure him.  Del Grande — along with Teresa Lubinski, Garry Tanuan and Nancy Crawford — voted November 7 after months of bitter debate not to add “gender identity, gender expression, family status and marital status” to the TCDSB’s code of conduct as prohibited grounds for discrimination. The many delegates and opponents of the policy change argued that adding the terms endorses spurious gender ideology in Catholic schools in contravention of Catholic teaching, leading to great harm to students. But eight trustees led by chair Maria Rizzo voted to include the terms, arguing that the board had to follow a minis...

Woman sues Fuller seminary after she was expelled for lesbian marriage

Image
The progressive culture says marriage is an institution between two consenting adults, no matter their gender. But Christian culture has yet to capitulate, continuing to abide by the biblical vision for marriage being between one man and one woman. Now, a Texas woman who was set to graduate from Fuller Theological Seminary is suing the school for discrimination after they expelled her last year for marrying another woman. The plaintiff — Joanna Maxon of Fort Worth, Texas — was nearing the completion of her masters of arts degree in theology at the California-based seminary when she received a letter in the mail notifying her that she had been expelled from the school for violating the school's sexual standards "I was approaching the end and looking forward to graduation and all that stuff," the 53-year-old woman told NBC News. "To have that taken away unexpectedly — I was a really good student — I was devastated by it." According to the Los Angeles ...

Kellogg announces special pro-gay breakfast cereal to raise money for ‘LGBTQ advocacy work’

Image
The iconic cereal brand Kellogg is embarking on its most high-profile foray yet into the world of identity politics with the announcement of specially packaged cereal meant to support the left-wing, pro-LGBT lobbying group GLAAD. All Together cereal is a limited-edition variety pack of Corn Flakes, Froot Loops, Frosted Flakes, Frosted Mini-Wheats, Raisin Bran, and Rice Krispies, with the mascots of each brand appearing together on the same box. It was created in recognition of GLAAD’s Spirit Day 2019, which the organization bills as a “means of speaking out against LGBTQ bullying and standing with LGBTQ youth.” Here is the demented justification by Kelloggs to push homosexuality onto children: "We all belong together. So for the first time in history, our famous mascots and cereals are offered exclusively together in the same box for All Together Cereal. It’s a symbol of acceptance no matter how you look, where you’re from or who you love. We believe that all people dese...

LGBT target People of faith via Government

Image
I can't think of another time where people of faith have been under such assault by LGBT extremists.  Consider: The US House of Representatives has passed legislation that would make acting in support of traditional marriage illegal under federal law. That same legislation attempts to strip Americans of their religious liberty rights to live out their beliefs at work and at home. Two Democrat presidential candidates have declared that churches that refuse to endorse same-sex 'marriage' should lose their tax exemption and be targeted by the government for punishment. An agency of the federal government, the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission, has taken it upon itself to attempt to single-handedly rewrite federal law to impose a dangerous gender ideology that claims that a person can change their gender and the entirety of society must accept, accommodate and agree with it. They've sued employers that have refused to allow men dressed as women to serve cu...

Teacher claiming to be Christian take Christian College to Courts to support LGBT agenda

Image
A teacher claiming to be a Christian says Christian school asked her to quit for supporting homosexual fake marriage and being unable to support the school doctrine of faith and employment. Rachel Colvin claiming to be a Christian who worked for Ballarat Christian College was asked to resign over her public beliefs about gay marriage which is in reality - homosexual fake marriage.  Rachel Colvin in defiance to scripture is taking legal action against Ballarat Christian College, claiming she was forced to resign over her personal support for homosexual fake marriage while at the same time was unwilling to sign the school's code of conduct. Rachel Colvin was an English teacher at Ballarat Christian College from 2008 until February 2019.   Colvin said that in August last year the school informed her she would no longer be offered certain teaching and professional development opportunities, despite her offer to keep silent about her personal and immoral support for f...
