Hallmark exec who pulled, then re-authorized gay ‘wedding’ ad resigns

Image
DUMP HALLMARK AND ALL ITS MERCHANDISE NOW A reason was not given reason for Bill Abbott’s exit and no replacement was announced. Hallmark said that it was 'more important than ever that we find relevant new ways to grow our business. The chief executive of the TV network overseeing the Hallmark Channel has stepped down a month after the channel first banned and then reversed its decision and allowed four commercials featuring same-sex “weddings.”  In their coverage of the resignation, an NBC News report highlighted the petitions urging Hallmark to reject the LGBT agenda, as well as a petition run by pro-family group One Million Moms. Bill Abbott, chief executive of Crown Media Family Networks, is stepping down from his position and no replacement was announced in a statement released by Hallmark yesterday. The statement noted that Abbott has been with the company for 11 years.  Mike Perry, president and chief executive of Hallmark Cards, did not give a reason for...

Hate Doesn’t Win, But It Scores

Image
A person in Louisville connected to the Whitefield Academy e-mails with more details about what has happened to the school and its personnel since the gay kid with the long list of disciplinary issues was dismissed the other day. The Head of the School, has received death threats against his home, his person, his family, and of course his place of work, as has the High School principal.  The school itself has received, via social media and the mail, threats of harm, danger, murder, mayhem, attack, and destruction. There was a threat for teachers to watch themselves in the parking lot getting into their cars, that they would be targets. One teacher was actually attacked unsuccessfully (perhaps the only real intention of the perp was to scare her) by a close call from a car feigning a sideswipe while she was getting in. Highview Church has been threatened as well. I’m keeping this reader’s name out of it, though he gave me permission to use this material. He’s not on s...

LGBT ideology biased media towards Christianity

Image
You might have heard about Whitefield Academy, the private Christian school in Louisville, Kentucky, that expelled Kayla Kenney, a  15-year-old student, for posting on social media a photo of herself with a rainbow cake. On the surface, it looked ridiculous: this priggish Christian school kicking a teenager out for merely having a rainbow cake for her birthday. The story has gone viral in the national media. The Washington Post, for example, reported: [Kayla’s mother Kimberly] Alford said she is aware that the rainbow-striped flag is a symbol of the LGBTQ community, but emphasized that her daughter’s matching rainbow cake and sweater were simply a coincidental aesthetic and not intended to mean anything more. The expulsion was first covered this week by local news outlets, including the Courier-Journal. “Rainbows don’t mean you’re a certain gender or certain sex or sexuality,” Alford told The Washington Post, adding that she provided the school a receipt from the bakery l...

Gay Marriage proponents abuse religions

Image
Are you astonished at how quickly and radically things have changed in such a short period of time? But it’s not merely that popular opinion has shifted in favor of homosexual marriage and transgender identities. It’s that popular opinion has become openly contemptuous of those of us who still believe what the Bible teaches about sexuality and gender. At the beginning of the 2010s before the tide had turned, there were warnings about what was coming. Two, in particular, come to mind—one from Rod Dreher and the other from Robert George.  In those days, gay marriage advocates would often say things like, “How does gay marriage hurt your marriage?” On the surface, the proponents of gay marriage proposed a “live and let live” arrangement: “Give us gay marriage, you have your view of marriage, and we’ll all co-exist.” In 2013, Dreher began warning of the law of merited impossibility when it comes to gay marriage. He warned that the “live and let live” thing was a fiction. Gay...

Drag Queen - Brisbane Council Library

Image
A drag queen issued a stern warning to moms who want their kids influenced by drag queens and take them to drag queen library storytime: “Don’t ruin your child’s life.” Brisbane City Council Library administration should take careful notice of what Mr. K. Demure is saying.  The short video was tweeted Saturday by drag queen Kitty Demure, who says that exposing children to drag queens is no different than exposing them to strippers or porn stars.   Demure does not mince words as he questions why any parent could possibly want a child exposed to the sordid world of drag queens.   “What in the hell has a drag queen ever done to make you have so much respect for them, and admire them so much?” asked Demure, “other than put on makeup and jump on the floor and writhe around and do sexual things on stage?” The far-left students of Queensland University piled onto one gay male student who voiced his disapproval of drag queens reading to children in Brisb...

United Methodist Church proposes split over LGBTQ impasse

Image
The United Methodist Church has proposed to split in order to resolve an impasse between two factions within the church that have not been able to agree on gay marriage and clergy. If passed, the proposal will restructure the church and create a new denomination for "traditionalist-minded biblically-based congregations." A 16-member group of bishops and church leaders signed the proposal in December and released the nine-page plan titled, "Protocol of Reconciliation & Grace Through Separation," on January 3.  If passed during the church's 2020 general conference, set for May 5-15 in Minneapolis, Minnesota, the proposal will allow churches that disapprove of homosexual marriage and clergy to break off from what will become an apostate church. "The United Methodist Church and its members — after careful reflection, discussion and prayer — have fundamental differences regarding their understanding and interpretation of Scripture, theology and prac...

Opposing same-sex marriage is not "vilification"

Image
The recent NSW decision of Passas v Comensoli [2019] NSWCATAP 298 (18 December 2019) provides an example of someone who has been penalized for “homosexual vilification” as a result of comments concerning same-sex marriage. However, it does provide clarification that merely to express disagreement with the introduction of same-sex marriage does not amount to such vilification under NSW law. The Facts Ms. Passas and Mr. Comensoli were fellow occupants of a block of units in Ashfield. On 15 November 2017, the results of the postal survey on the introduction of same-sex marriage were announced, with 61% of respondents to the survey in favor. Mr. Comensoli, in celebration of the result, draped a rainbow flag over his balcony. Ms. Passas disagreed with the proposed change. What followed was summarised by the Appeal Panel of the NSW Civil and Administrative Tribunal as follows: [I]t was found that on 15 November 2017 she made loud verbal demands upon the Respondent to remove the fla...
