A representative of Repairers of the Breach directed The Christian Post to a press release from Wednesday regarding the open letter, wherein Repairers of the Breach President The Rev. Dr. William J. Barber II called the letter a response to the "the theological malpractice of the so-called white evangelicals and others who placed themselves as the moral support of Mr. Trump."

The Texas libertarian is widely seen as a longshot candidate for the GOP's 2012 presidential nomination. So why is he preparing for another White House campaign?....

Amid the euphoria in the recent elections, three shining lights appeared on the horizon that the left is trying hard to ignore or explain away. The lights came as a killjoy to an otherwise festive occasion and raise serious questions about what the victory means. Indeed, if the elections were about a change of direction, the results should reflect the direction of the Culture Wars. No one can deny that the cutting edge of this battle is best represented by the same-sex “marriage” issue. Even more than abortion, same-sex “marriage” is supposedly the wave of a liberal future. And yet...

Obama is 'Radically Pro-Abortion, Radically Pro-Homosexual,' Says Republican Pro-Family Group at GOP Convention Contact: Peter LaBarbera, Republicans For Family Values, 630-457-0178, 630-546-4439, rffv@comcast.net ST. PAUL, Minn., Sept. 2 /Christian Newswire/ -- Democratic presidential candidate Barack Obama is the most pro-abortion and pro-homosexual candidate ever to receive a major party's nomination, Republicans For Family Values (www.rffv.org) founder Peter LaBarbera said today. RFFV will be at the GOP convention to educate Republicans and the media on Obama's extreme record on the two most important moral crises facing our nation: the killing of millions of innocent, unborn babies; and the campaign to use...

Scandal: 96 Catholic Universities Have Pro-Homosexual ClubsHelp stop this scandal by signing the TFP’s urgent appeal to the presidents of Catholic universities Here is a list Catholic universities with pro-homosexual clubs Historically, Catholic universities have been beacons of truth. They have set a standard of intellectual progress and moral excellence. They have elevated culture, formed the minds of great men, and paved the way for abundant scientific breakthroughs. However, these beacons of truth are now failing. Moral values are being undermined on many Catholic campuses and the principles that once guided souls in the noble task of higher learning are...

ASHLAND, N.H., Sept. 3 -- Former senator Fred Thompson of Tennessee will grab most of the headlines this week as he enters the race for the White House, but Mitt Romney likes where he stands in the contest for the Republican nomination. "When I started running seven months ago, I was at 5 percent in the national polls," the former Massachusetts governor said at a question-and-answer session here. "Now I won the Iowa straw poll; I'm ahead here in New Hampshire, ahead in Michigan, ahead in the Nevada." The energetic Romney, who is shown jogging in a television ad that...

Toronto Catholic School Board Pro-Gay Harassment Policy Threatens Priests One of the largest school boards in Canada could penalize what would normally be considered remaining faithful to Catholic moral teaching By Elizabeth O'Brien TORONTO, August 29, 2007 (LifeSiteNews.com) - The new "Discrimination and Harassment in the Workplace" policy, recently released by the Toronto Catholic District School Board (TCDSB), bans discrimination due to "same-sex partner status" and "sexual orientation". The document, a copy of which has been obtained by LifeSiteNews.com, also indicates that teachers and even parish priests could potentially be penalized for what would normally be considered remaining faithful to...

PHILADELPHIA - A Methodist minister who had been defrocked for being in a lesbian relationship, then was reinstated, called for an end to discrimination against gays in a speech to hundreds of supporters Sunday. "Other faith traditions out there have tried to shut us down and tell us we're not worthy," said the Rev. Irene Elizabeth Stroud, who spoke along with the Episcopal Church's first openly gay bishop, V. Gene Robinson, at an interfaith service. "I pray for a day when no one will experience discrimination." Stroud, who was defrocked after she told her Philadelphia congregation that she was in...

Dear Friend: Two weeks ago, I asked you to sign my pledge supporting full state funding of Virginia’s obligation to public education, and you responded by joining me in this fight for Virginia’s schoolchildren. If you haven’t signed up to fight with me for education funding, please do it now. If you have joined us, please spread the word about our important mission. I want to take this opportunity to let you know that we’ve been joined in our mission by a very, very important group: Virginia’s public school teachers. On Friday, April 15, the Virginia Education Association endorsed my...

Dear Concerned Virginian: You've heard me talk about the need to provide relief to Virginians whose homeowner taxes are rising out of control. In fact, I've proposed a plan to help. Full funding of the state's education obligations is a cornerstone of my plan - without it, not only will local governments be forced to continue to allow homeowner taxes to rise (making saving for college that much more difficult), but we'll be jeopardizing Virginia's most important resource: her world-class work force. This year, Mark Warner and I continued to lead Virginia's government in making progress for Virginians. We had...

Presbyterian church defames Christianity Dennis Prager (archive) TownHall July 20, 2004 | Print | Send I have argued in this column that the greatest sin is committing evil in God's name. As bad as the evil committed by secularists, such as communists and Nazis, has ever been, the most grievous evil is that which is committed in the name of God. For not only do religious evils harm their victims, they also do lasting damage to God-based morality, which those of us who believe in God and religion consider the only viable antidote to evil. That is why Islamic terror...

Another round of looniness from left-wing activist/actress Janeane Garofalo as the co-host in the left chair on CNN's Crossfire this week. On Monday she held the Bush administration "responsible" for the blackout. On Wednesday afternoon she blamed the Bush team for the terrorist attack on the UN hotel: "It is the Bush/Cheney cartel's fault for this." Railing against the Bush administration's efforts to pass and now argue in favor of the benefits of the Patriot Act, Garofalo raised Nazism. Playing off how George W. Bush is the 43rd President, she charged: "It is in fact a conspiracy of the 43rd...

Sex-charged mags are gone from check-out lanes at Wal-Mart ... or are they?Wal-Mart's recent announcement that sexually charged magazines would be removed from at least two check-out lanes per store - four lanes in the larger stores that include groceries - has raised several questions. Meanwhile, radical homosexual activists led by the National Gay & Lesbian Task Force (NGLTF) have targeted the retail giant for a national protest, partly because it will not give special protections to "transgender" (gender-confused) employees. Which Lanes?Wal-Mart's announcement about the racy magazines didn't come with a stated company-wide policy on which lanes the magazines would...
