No. That's a reflection.

Homofascists Demand Churches Deny Bible or Lose Tax Exempt Status .......................................................................................................................... Moonbattery ^ \| April 2, 2015 \| Dave Blount Mr. Magoo could have seen this coming with a sack over his head: Jeran Artery, Chairman of Wyoming Equality argued that churches who do not support same sex marriage should lose their tax exempt status. The overeager homofascists at Wyoming Equality appear to be offside with their demand. They deleted the post. But here’s a screen shot of the wording: After liberal fascists have established that it is no longer acceptable for pizzeria owners to refrain from endorsing homosexual “marriage,” a full-bore attack on churches is inevitable. The whole point of choosing homosexuals as a cudgel to club traditional America is that the depraved activities around which they construct their identity are forcibly and repeatedly condemned in the Bible, which has served as a bulwark against tyranny for centuries by providing a higher moral authority than the government. Tax exempt status won’t be the last thing to go. After all, the Bible itself is “homophobic.” Unless there is a radical reversal in the Culture War, most of us will live to see it banned in what’s left of America. From WWII. The more things change…

A king speaks the word, and it becomes law. Obama does the same.

Obama has become king, and we have for all intents and purposes become his supplicants. He speaks, and, without congressional oversight or debate, we are forced to obey.

Catholic teacher fired for defending marriage .............................................................. Life Site News ^ \| 4-2-2015 \| Ben Johnson Which two words best describe the reason LifeSiteNews.com exists? I could answer that a lot of ways – unborn babies, traditional marriage, Christian worldview – but I think I'll use these two words: Patricia Jannuzzi. If you haven't heard of Patricia Jannuzzi, she's the high school theology teacher at a Catholic school who is being persecuted for posting a message on Facebook upholding traditional marriage. In response to a story on her news feed about vile and vicious comments made by gay activist Dan Savage, Jannuzzi said the argument in favor of redefining marriage is “bologna.” That's it. That's the whole outrage. But ever since she said “bologna,” she's been put through the grinder. Unfortunately, one of the people who saw this message – on her private Facebook account – was the nephew of actress Susan Sarandon. She got her far-Left Hollywood friends to swoop down on the town and demand the school shut her up. But here's where the story gets really terrible: The school turned its back on Jannuzzi – and some say the bishop lied to cover it up. Bishop Paul Bootkoski of the Diocese of Metuchen, New Jersey, said that Jannuzzi had been placed on leave, but she has not been fired, and “there has been no interruption in her pay and benefits.” But then Jannuzzi's lawyer released a series of e-mails that show that may not exactly be true. The principal at Immaculata High School in Somerville, Mrs. Jean G. Kline, sent an e-mail saying, “I have decided to place you on administrative leave without pay effective immediately.” In another e-mail, her lawyer accepted a deal for the school to continue paying her salary and benefits – but it appears it was conditioned on Jannuzzi not being rehired next fall. We personally feel very badly for this heroic, faithful woman who deserves much praise, or at the very least fair reporting of her firing, rather than condemnation. And we are trying to do whatever we can to help her. All this woman did was share the Catholic Church's position on gay “marriage” on her own social media page, and even students who disagree with her fidelity say she is a kind and effective teacher who always has her students' best interests at heart. But instead, the Catholic school – and the leadership of this diocese – decided to disregard her 30-year teaching career and throw her to the Hollywood lynch mob. Jannuzzi can't afford to fight this on her own. She is a 57-year-old breast cancer survivor with one son in college and another in a parochial high school. Until LifeSiteNews brought her story to light from a traditional perspective, all the media coverage had been hostile. Supposedly “impartial” media sources branded her post an “anti-gay rant” and hinted she was full of “hate.” (Come to think of it, that's the same thing they say about you....) After our story, one of our reporters spoke with Patricia Jannuzzi. She couldn't say much for legal reasons, but she broke down in tears and thanked him for our media coverage. She also asked him to pray with her right there on the phone. That's the reason LifeSiteNews is so necessary. It's no secret that there's a war in America. But that war isn't just between “their” side and “our” side: it's taking place within the church. When a beloved, veteran teacher can't disagree with the Hollywood jet set without fear of her diocese taking away her livelihood, things have gotten terribly out of control.

I, Obama Supplicant ................................................................................................................................................... By Lloyd Marcus April 3, 2015 We've heard the tale of Mr. Frog allowing himself to be boiled alive. If put in boiling water, he would immediately jump out. But he was placed in cold water, heated slowly. Before Mr. Frog realized what was happening, he was cooked to death. Folks, I don't know if you realize it, but gradually, over his presidency, Obama has become king, and we have for all intents and purposes become his supplicants. He speaks, and, without congressional oversight or debate, we are forced to obey. I mean, think about it. A king speaks the word, and it becomes law. Obama does the same. While Obama's decrees may not be legal, they are implemented, with the MSM cheering him on for his compassion and skill at getting around the racist, sexist, and mean GOP. The GOP appears unwilling to stop him. Oh, some GOP members may express outrage, but at the end of the day, every Obama decree is implemented. For example: despite the Constitution nowhere granting government the power to force citizens to purchase health care, the Supreme Court bent the law, forcing supplicants to yield to king Obama's mandate (Obamacare). From granting amnesty to illegals to welcoming them with checks using taxpayer money, whatever Obama wants to do, he does. Woe to anyone who dares to disobey king Obama. Remember the Little Sisters of the Poor, the order of nuns who have been serving the poor and elderly for 175 years? Despite a widespread public outcry, under the radar, Obama continues his unrelenting choke-hold on the nuns, trying to force them to betray their faith by signing on to abortion services. While demanding that the Little Sisters comply with his abortion mandate, His Majesty exempts others. What's up with that? It is about Obama leading the left's war on Christianity, bullying Christians into submitting to their anti-God agenda. King Obama also does not take kindly to supplicants daring to speak-out against him. From the IRS’s scandalous attacks on Tea Party members to numerous governmental agencies used to “punish his enemies,” we know king Obama does not tolerate opposition. I recently learned that the Obama regime is bullying banks not to lend to gun shop owners because His Royal Obama-ness does not like guns. I wish to thank Christian bakers Aaron and Melissa Klein for their sacrifice in defense of our First Amendment rights, in essence throwing themselves over a grenade thrown by the left. The Kleins baked cakes for their repeat lesbian customer on numerous occasions. But when they respectfully declined to make a cake for her homosexual wedding, she sued. The Kleins were forced to close down their shop. Freedom ain't free, folks. Ted Cruz is also talking about abolishing the IRS. I guess you could say that as with Obama, Ted Cruz wants to fundamentally transform America, but in a good way – back to the vision of our Founding Fathers. The Left dominates the airways promoting a waste land of rude, crude and ugly behavior. Read more: americanthinker.com
