I thought I should compile this information after reading ‘The People vs. Michael M.’ [Christians jailed in Philadelphia]. I remember the Temple University incident from when I was in college. Even then, I admired him for his stand against the mocking of Christianity. Now, I admire him even more.

He sound slike a real glutton for punishment. And I respect him greatly for that. My thoughts and prayers are for this man that the Lords guides him to the correct path.

I would like any links to actual court transcripts on this one. I have been "guilty" of preaching on the streets in San Francisco, even at the Gay Pride Parade. It is amazing the amount of blatant lawless behavior the police department allows and even facilitates in these events, based on my personal observations.

From the video portions I watched I saw nothing remotely worthy of charges being filed, other than the police reluctance to require the homosexuals to cease blocking the sidewalk.

Not knowing Marcavage, I cannot vouch for him personally, but I am favorably disposed toward this group based on their representation, the American Family Association, founded by Rev. Don Wildmon, who has been fighting the culture war in America for decades, trying to preserve at least a modicum of decency in the public square.

Homosexual Agenda + Moral Absolutes, with a good serving of Free Speech Rights going down the drain, with Religious Expression Verboten as well.

More of less of a summary with links to the story as far as it's gone.

Whether a person likes Mr. Marcavage's methods or not, the travesty of justice, the shameless silencing of a message the lefttists hate, and violence and hatred out in the open should give everyone the willies.

Let me know if anyone wants: On, Off, Or Back On* either pinglist, let me know.

*(I lost most of the names on the Moral Absolutes ping list...)

Thanks for the ping!

This simply cannot stand, and I personally am not holding out hope for the Supreme Court to step up.

I Therefore propose that a petition movement be initiated and forwarded to the White House pardon attorny.

This is a job for W!!!

Since the Holy Bible is now hate speech, there are some laws which need to be taken off the books.
Murder should be legal since it's hate speech to say anything against murder.

Rape should be legal since it's hate speech to say anything against rape.

Stealing should be legal since it's hate speech to say anything against thieves.

Adultery should be legal since it's hate speech to say anything against adulterers.

Telling lies should be legal since it's hate speech to say anything against liars.


Though the chances of the proposed hypothetical situation would never happen, I think it would shut up the lib anti-God crowd.

This can't possibly be the US of A we're talking about here. This is literally unbelievable.

Excerpt:http://worldnetdaily.com/news/article.asp?ARTICLE_ID=42011

It's worth remembering the very first legislative act in Pennsylvania, April 25, 1682. It was called the Great Law of Pennsylvania – and great it was.

"Whereas the glory of Almighty God and the good of mankind is the reason and the end of government, and, therefore government itself is a venerable ordinance of God ... [there shall be established] laws as shall best preserve true Christian and civil liberty, in opposition to all unchristian, licentious, and unjust practices, whereby God may have his due, and Caesar his due, and the people their due, from tyranny and oppression."

If indeed the Philadelphia 4 are convicted and sentenced to hard time, Christians need to march on the Philadelphia courthouse, encircle it, blow the trumpets and prepare to watch God work a miracle like He did at Jericho.

We should do this not just for the injustice to the four Philadelphia Christians, but because no one in America – not Christians or non-Christians, not black or white, not homosexual or heterosexual – will truly be free. We will be living in a country where people can be imprisoned arbitrarily for breaking no law other than the law of "political correctness."

If we're going to save freedom in America, it's going to take a miracle.

Will you come to Philadelphia? - Joseph Farah

I like this guy.
I just wish he would take a few boxing lessons and perhaps hit the weights some. Gotta be ready for jackasses especially if you're out there provoking them.
