When Blacks gained their Civil Rights in 1964 was any other group required to lose some of theirs?
There are plenty of African-Americans who can't stand the comparison between the 1960s Civil Rights movement and today's gay rights agenda. HLBTs, as a group, are not poor or deprived of decend jobs. They are not shut out of the educational system. They can visit people in hospitals (I've never seen hospitals detain people who wanted to visit); they don't have to drink at seperate water fountains or sit in the back of the bus... What civil rights are you talking about?
Easy divorce has paved the way for acceptance of gay marriage. It got us used to the notion of depriving children of mothers or fathers and has conditioned us to think that "alternative families" are normal. We need stricter divorce laws. The failure of easy divorce is not an argument for gay marriage.
American judges who attended this pledged to "apply new legal instruments in keeping with the principles of sustainable development," and the international "Rule of Law." The document designed to advance this process, is the Earth Charter. ,br> The Charter is intended to become a universally adopted creed that will psychologically prepare the worlds children to accept the necessity of world government to, among other things, save the environment. It is also an outrageous attempt to indoctrinate your children in the UNs New Age paganizm, Gaia "mother Earth" worship.
"We are one human family and one Earth community with a common destiny. We must join together to bring forth a sustainable global society founded on respect for nature.... Towards this end, it is imperative that we, the peoples of Earth, declare our responsibility to one another, to the greater community of life, and to future generations.
According to the Charter, we must:
"Recognize that all beings are interdependent and every form of life has value...." (Unborn children, of course, are not included in the UNs definition of "every form of life.)
"Affirm faith in the inherent dignity of all human beings."
"Adopt at all levels sustainable development plans and regulations...." (This is a prescription for global socialism in a super-regulated global state.)
"Prevent pollution of any part of the environment."
"Ensure universal access to health care that fosters reproductive health and responsible reproduction. We have recently seen such rulings for illegal aliens in Californication
"Eliminate discrimination in all its forms, such as that based on race [and] sexual orientation." (This provision is clearly aimed at criminalizing those who refuse to accept homosexuality as positive and good.)
"Promote the equitable distribution of wealth within nations and among nations. (Few Marxist documents have put their "redistribution of wealth" program more plainly. This is what "Kyoto" is all about)
The Charter has been making its way to schools, city governments, state legislatures, teachers organizations, civic groups, professional associations, judges, and law schools. The Global Judges Symposium concluded its summit activities by issuing the so-called Johannesburg Principles on the Rule of Law and Sustainable Development. "We recognize," it states, "the importance of ensuring that environmental law and law in the field of sustainable development feature prominently in academic curricula, legal studies and training at all levels, in particular among judges and others engaged in the judicial process."
Maybe knowing what's been going on for a few decades will help make sense of what we are seeing happen now, and why it seems nobody is doing anything to stop it.
Maybe. But left-wing moonbat crap never makes sense anyway.
It never does, but we have to recognize it where ever it pops up and kill it before it infests the entire building.
Unfortunately, the infestation has been going on without notice for quite some time now. Needs to be squashed
Very well stated!
My take on this as a pastor is that my parishoners must leave their religion at the door when they enter a school or send their children to one. It says that they don't even have to make reasonable accomodations such as letting parents know when controversial subjects are being discussed.
The judge's justification for this is that the current group in power gets to make the rules, so live with it. Minority viewpoints are just that...not enough votes.
Essentially, if NAMBLA can pack a school board, parents will have to return to locked chastity belts on their little boys.
No the parents will have to return to protecting their kids with deadly force. Enough of that happens without any evidence, then the fruits will stop. Homosexuals are mentally ill, that is why they have convinced themselves that being buggered in the rectum is pleasurable.
Very revealing. Our judges attend UN Moonbat training.
Next judges will be telling us that endangered jumping kangaroo rats and mosquito infested swamps trump our private property rights.
homeschool ping?
Yes. Private businesses lost freedom of association rights. The right to discriminate against some people may not be nice, but it was an important civil right.
I've always thought that there should be outrage. But I've worked with black women who sympathize with gays because, you know, they can't help being born that way.
When I tried to point out the difference of their own genetic struggles versus gay behavior, they didn't want to hear it.
"They can't help they were born that way."
Those African-American women didn't understand the difference and I couldn't understand their attitude. It seems like they have a long way to go, IMHO.
Disgusting, isn't it?
update from Massresistance: http://www.massresistance.org/docs/parker_lawsuit/order_to_dismiss.html
There's nothing "odious" about that statement. The judge is absolutely right. This case is a no-brainer.
He bolsters his decision with a patchwork of statements from other court decisions - some going back over a decade - and declares that these past decions are "law" which much be enforced when making his own ruling on this case.
Well duh, that's how cases *always* get decided in this country. WTH? Who wrote this garbage?
Re: your post..........
I'm sorry to hear you feel that way.
This kind of ruling gives parents one more reason to opt out of government schools.
One day the government and school officials will wake up and wonder where all the students went.
That's what it will take. The schools will lose students and the local and state money that goes with them. MA is already set to lose a congressional seat in 2010 or 12 if this keeps up, although that might not be a bad thing.
