It all started Oct. 10, when a total of 11 members of Repent America attended a homosexual street festival called "Outfest."
What's disgusting about this is the fact that these Christians are being sacrificed on the alter of political correctness at he expense of our Constitution while the Mainstream news media choose to remain silent.
Should read:
"With the active participation of the Mainstream news media."
Merry Christmas.
And Merry Christmas to you. :^)

That's the question I keep asking myself. Maybe the Perfect Storm is in the works, somehow or other. Fencesitters and those asleep at the couch need to wake up and choose who they're going to serve.
Unfortunately many people are thinking of the immediate gratification of the minute rather than the fact that individually and collectlively, we're sitting in a little boat, and the roar of the waterfall is getting perceptibly louder.
So what do a lot of people do? Turn up the volume of the movie so they aren't made uncomfortable by the roar and increasing spray of the upcoming falls.
Moral Absolutes Ping. (Note: Anyone wanting on/off/ or BACK ON this list, ping me. I lost many of the names on the list...)
Another article about the "Philly 4". "Throwing Christians to the Philadelphians". Links to all the info available on FR.
Can anyone who watches/hears/reads the MSM tell us if they are touching this with a ten foot pole?
I am from St. Louis where Rigali was Bishop for some years, and I personally like him. I thought he did a half way decent job of running the Archdiocese and its various issues. Yes, I disagreed with him on some things, but after Arch Bishop May and now seeing Burke, Rigali is looking better and better everyday.
But I digress . . .its up to the parishoners to pressure Rigali. I can't believe he has been mum on this for so long, but put some pressure on him. Try to get it in the newspaper and on tv that Catholics are pressuring him to speak out against this. Also helps if some of those who are doing the pushing are also very involved and contribute those all important greenbacks to the diocese.
Just my two cents worth.

Not the most comprehensive list but a good start. I think a fax-o-rama is in order on this one. This isn't about sexual orientation but they will try to make that the issue. If this prosecution is successful it will be a landmark for restriction of freedom of speech.

We have those in Florida too!

They're hoping this case will go before the SCOTUS.
The libs have realized the fact that their ideology fails at the polls and their puppets in the legislature can't get anything done (apart from PA and CA recently passing "hate crime" legislation). So they pin their hopes on the activist Judges and Judicial Activism.
You are certainly right as to bishops being politicians, and it is sad as all get out. Bishops should be leaders, but most are Kerry-like, with a wet finger in the wind. My favorite quote, which probably says a lot about me, is the one about the streets of hell being paved with the skulls of bishops. It is easy to see why the quote exists.
