BREAKING NEWS: Jerry Falwell dead at age 73

OneNewsNow.com - May 15, 2007

LYNCHBURG, Va. Rev. Jerry Falwell, who founded the Moral Majority and built the religious right into a political force, died Tuesday shortly after being found unconscious in his office at Liberty University, a school executive said. He was 73.

Ron Godwin, the university's executive vice president, said Falwell, 73, was found unresponsive around 10:45 a.m. and taken to Lynchburg General Hospital. CPR efforts were unsuccessful, he said.Godwin said he was not sure what caused the collapse, but he said Falwell has a history of heart challenges.I had breakfast with him, and he was fine at breakfast, Godwin said. He went to his office, I went to mine, and they foundhimunresponsive.

Falwell had survived two serious health scares in early 2005. He was hospitalized for two weeks with what was described as a viral infection, then was hospitalized again a few weeks later after going into respiratory arrest. Later that year, doctors found a 70 percent blockage in an artery, which they opened with stents. Falwell credited his Moral Majority with getting millions of conservative voters
registered, electing Ronald Reagan and giving Republicans Senate control in 1980.I shudder to think where the country would be right now if the religious right had not evolved, Falwell said when he stepped down as Moral Majority president in 1987.The fundamentalist church that Falwell started in an abandoned bottling plant in 1956 grew into a religious empire that includes the 22,000-member Thomas Road Baptist Church, the Old Time Gospel Hour carried on television stations around the country and 7,700-student Liberty University. He built Christian elementary schools, homes for unwed mothers and a home for alcoholics.

He also founded Liberty University in Lynchburg, which began as Lynchburg Baptist College in 1971.Liberty University's commencement is scheduled for Saturday, with former U.S. House Speaker Newt Gingrich as the featured speaker.In 2006, Falwell marked the 50th anniversary of his church and spoke out on stem cell research, saying he sympathized with people with medical problems, but that any medical research must pass a three-part test: Is it ethically correct? Is it biblically correct? Is it morally correct?

Falwell had once opposed mixing preaching with politics, but he changed his view and in 1979, founded the Moral Majority. The political lobbying organization grew to 6.5 million members and raised $69 million as it supported conservative politicians and campaigned against abortion, homosexuality, pornography and bans on school prayer. Falwell became the face of the religious right, appearing on national magazine covers and on television talk shows. In 1983, U.S. News & World Report named him one of 25 most influential people in America.In 1984, he sued Hustler magazine for $45 million, charging that he was libeled by an ad parody depicting him as an incestuous drunkard. A federal jury found the fake ad did not libel him, but awarded him $200,000 for emotional distress. That verdict was overturned, however, in a landmark 1988 U.S. Supreme Court decision that held that even pornographic spoofs about a public figure enjoy First Amendment protection.

The case was depicted in the 1996 movie The People v. Larry Flynt.

With Falwell's high profile came frequent criticism, even from fellow ministers. The Rev. Billy Graham once rebuked him for political sermonizing on non-moral issues. Falwell quit the Moral Majority in 1987, saying he was tired of being a lightning rod and wanted to devote his time to his ministry and Liberty University. But he remained outspoken and continued to draw criticism for his remarks.

Falwell was re-energized after moral values issues proved important in the 2004 presidential election. He formed the Faith and Values Coalition as the 21st Century resurrection of the Moral Majority, to seek anti-abortion judges, a constitutional amendment banning same-sex marriage and more conservative elected officials.The big, blue-eyed preacher with a booming voice started his independent Baptist church with 35 members. From his living room, he began broadcasting his message of salvation and raising the donations that helped his ministry grow.He was one of the first to come up with ways to use television to expand his ministry, said Robert Alley, a retired University of Richmond religion professor who studied and criticized Falwell's career.American Family News Network.

EU wants credibility of World Bank reinstated Tue May 15, 11:27 AM ET

BRUSSELS (Reuters) - The European Union wants the World Bank's board to take a quick decision on whether President Paul Wolfowitz should step down to restore the global lender's credibility, Germany's Development minister said on Tuesday. We need a rapid decision from the board, German Development Minister Heidemarie Wieczorek-Zeul said after EU development ministers discussed the issue at a regular meeting.All of us development ministers want the integrity and the credibility of the Bank to be maintained and reinstated, she told a news conference. We need a strong Bank, a strong president.Wieczorek-Zeul told Wolfowitz at the bank's spring meeting that he should step down voluntarily. She said on Tuesday that she maintained her position.

But EU foreign policy chief Javier Solana appeared to question whether the furor over Wolfowitz's career help for his girlfriend when she was an employee of the bank was harming the institution.I don't think that an institution as established as the World Bank is going to suffer for some debate about an issue that relates to the presidency of the institution, he said.

The White House acknowledged on Tuesday that Wolfowitz erred in the handling of a pay raise and promotion for his companion but said that was not cause for him to be removed from his job.We've made clear that we support Paul Wolfowitz. Furthermore, he has said -- and we agree -- that certainly a lot of mistakes were made in the personnel process. But it's not a firing offense," White House spokesman Tony Snow told reporters.The bank's board was to meet on Tuesday to consider a report by the a panel that Wolfowitz violated ethics rules and that his involvement represented a conflict of interest. The former U.S. deputy defense secretary has rejected the criticism.

EU states forge defence links on military research
15.05.2007 - 09:27 CET | By Lucia Kubosova

EUOBSERVER / BRUSSELS - EU defence ministers have taken a step towards joint planning on defence expenditure and pooling resources to invest in technologies and military materials.

The initiative has been conducted by member states rather than the European Commission with national governments keen to protect their sovereignty in the area. At a meeting in Brussels on Monday (14 May), the bloc's defence chiefs agreed on a strategy for the future development of Europe's defence industry, pledging more mutual cooperation in both research and production.Nineteen EU member states plus Norway also signed up to a joint investment scheme aimed to pool resources for developing battlefield protection technologies, such as defences against mortar attacks or chemical, biological and radiological weapons.

Defence is a sensitive sector outside the EU's internal market rules, with some critics suggesting the status quo leads to Europe wasting millions of euros a year on duplication and protectionism.While the commission is currently contemplating possible ways of introducing more competition in the area through common EU legislation, member states also take initiatives at intergovernmental level, through
the European Defence Agency (EDA) which stands outside the community institutions. Under a non-binding code of conduct launched by the EDA last year, participating countries have committed to posting tenders for defence contracts on an electronic bulletin board open to companies from across the EU, with tenders worth almost €10 billion currently posted, according to the defence agency. At the moment, 23 out of 27 of the EU's member states have signed up to the code of conduct, with Spain, Denmark, Romania and Bulgaria remaining outside the system.

Non-binding or binding rules?

The strategy defence ministers agreed on Monday argues that member states must take urgent action to stop a decline in Europe's defence technological and industrial base by opening up protected national defence markets. Echoing the statements by EU foreign policy chief Javier Solana ahead of the meeting, ministers admitted that the current approach with separate national spending on R&D and procurements in member states strictly opened just to national producers is no longer economically sustainable.They singled out the US as a key competitor against which Europe has been performing poorly, suggesting they should work more efficiently and cooperate more in order to improve standards.We recognise that the problem of accessing the US defence market and of establishing balanced technology exchange across the Atlantic, make it natural and necessary for Europeans to cooperate more closely, writes the agreed document. The European Parliament's security and defence subcommittee expressed similar feelings in a special report on the issue published last year, arguing that although EU governments spend €250 billion on defence which is half the amount Americans do, their defence capacities are only about 10 percent as efficient as the US.

The study pointed out that there are 23 parallel programmes for armoured vehicles, three new parallel programmes for combat aircraft and 89 European weapons programmes while the US, by contrast, has 27 programmes.But while the defence ministers acknowledge the same problems as the EU's executive and parliamentarians in their new strategy, they remain reluctant to give any extra powers to Brussels in this area.

CARMEL COMMENT EXTRA: AMERICA IS IN DIRE & IMMINENT DANGER MAY 15,07

It takes a serious situation to cause me to send out a mid week Carmel Alert. Two weeks ago, the Carmel Comment was entitled Israel Is In Dire & Immenent Danger. Israel's threat is from our demonically inspired Islamic neighbours. The title of this comment is inspired by several news items I have received this week concerning the USA. Unlike the threat to Israel that is external, the USA's problem is internal - America Is In Dire & Imminent Danger ..... from herself. The purpose of this email is not to bash President Bush or America, but to stir up Christians in the USA and the other nations to pray and fast for the United States. What ever happens in the USA will affect the rest of the World. I believe that the USA has a mandate from YHVH to stand with Israel and for the Bible and I want to see America rise up and fulfill this calling for her own sake and for the sake of the Kingdom
of God.

The root of the problem lies in three main areas - Israel, the Muslims, and this idiotic Political Correctness, particularly when it comes to the homosexual lobby. In addition I just saw a report on the 700 Club that in several US universities it is illegal to speak against Evolution. What ever happened to freedom of speech ?

The following news items should concern all of us, because sooner or later they WILL concern ALL of us.

PLEASE READ, DIGEST, WATCH, & PRAY ..............

JERUSALEM
1 King 11:36 ...... my servant David may always have a lamp before Me in Jerusalem, the city which I have chosen for Myself, to put My name there. (NKJ)

Ps 137:5-6 If I forget you, O Jerusalem, let my right hand forget its skill! If I do not remember you, let my tongue cling to the roof of my mouth-- if I do not exalt Jerusalem above my chief joy. (NKJ)

Zechariah 12:3 And it shall happen in that day that I will make Jerusalem a very heavy stone for all peoples; all who would heave it away will surely be cut in pieces, though all nations of the earth are gathered against it. (NKJ)

Jerusalem Day Being Boycotted by George Bush. The Golden Report 5-14-07

Jerusalem Day is this Wednesday; It is our 40th celebration of victory over the Jordanians who occupied Judea, Samaria and East Jerusalem including the Old City of Jerusalem from 1948 until 1967. For those 19 years Jews were not allowed in the Old City of Jerusalem, or to their Holiest sites the Temple Mount and the Western Wall. The Jordanians destroyed every Synagogue in the Old City turned most of them into toilets, and made it almost impossible for Christians to visit their Holy Sites.

By a miracle of God a small newly formed IDF in an act of self defense was able to defeat Jordan, Egypt, Lebanon and Syria in what is now known as the 6-day war.

We took back our Holy City of Jerusalem and cleaned it up, we didn’t run the Arabs out, instead we allowed them to live in the Old City and only took our precious Jewish Quarters back and rebuilt it and our Synagogues, in doing this we didn’t destroy their mosques instead we helped them rebuild them as well, Christians were now allowed to come and go freely to their Holy Sites.

Years ago the United States agreed that Jerusalem was the Capital of Israel and said they would move their Embassy from Tel-Aviv to Jerusalem. When Bush took office he said he would move the US Embassy to Jerusalem. But today George Bush says that the United States will not take part in the Jerusalem Day Celebrations and they are joining the EU in their boycott of Jerusalem being the Jewish Capital because Bush says we are occupying East Jerusalem and the Temple Mount. It becomes easier every day to see that his intention is too destroy the Jewish State in favor of his Saudi friends, what I can’t understand is why so many Christians in the US can’t now see what this man really is.

Many are calling me a Bush basher, I think I am a truth teller, I have only been reporting to you what Bush is doing that you may not hear on US TV.

David's Note: This is very serious - To oppose Jerusalem as the eternal, undivided capital of Israel is to oppose God Himself. He has warned us in Joel 3 that He will judge the nations on account of how they behave towards Israel.

What An Israeli American Says - Will America Recognize G-d? by Gary Cooperburg - Hevron MAY 15,07

Christian Zionists seem to know, more than most other people, that Jerusalem is the capital of the Jewish State. I am sure that American Christian supporters of the Jewish State are outraged that the US ambassador to Israel, Richard Jones, will not participate in tomorrows Jerusalem Day ceremony at the Knesset. I would also assume that most Americans must be quite frustrated at the fact that even though the American legislature passed a law authorizing the moving of the American Embassy in Israel from Tel Aviv to Jerusalem, and nearly every President has pledged to fulfill this law, to this date no progress has been made in fulfilling it.

No country in the world has the right to dictate to any legitimate nation where its capital should or shouldnt be. The PLO is not a nation. It has no legitimate claim on any part of the Land of Israel. Anyone who has read the Bible knows that Jerusalem has always been the capital of the Jewish nation.

No other nation has ever held sovereignty over this nation or this city. How dare any world leader, especially the President of the United States, refuse to recognize the only city in the world whose identity can never be denied as being the legitimate capital of the Jewish State?

Today all nations are being judged by our Creator by how they relate to His People in His Land. In spite of our feeble and foolish leaders, our nation is under the protection of our Creator and simply cannot be destroyed even by the most powerful nations in the world. We suffer from terror in this country only because our leaders refuse to recognize their obligations as Jews. We have no right to negotiate one grain of sand on the Gaza beach. It is our obligation to develop and build all of our homeland and to inhabit it with our people.

As an Israeli, I couldnt care less if Richard Jones refuses to attend our ceremonies. But as an American I am outraged that the leadership of the USA would place that nation in danger by snubbing the nation of G-d. This too will bring Divine Wrath upon America. If the American People want to continue to have a country in which they can be proud to be Americans, they must find a leadership which will return that country to the respect for our Creator that its founding fathers once had.

TWO STATE SOLUTION

The US State Department under the authority of President Bush and Condalesa Rice are forcing the Israelis and the so called Palestinians to conform to the US plan for the creation of a Palestinian State, not side by side, but inside the Jewish State, on the land that God promised to Abraham and his descendants ( thru Issac not Ishmael ). The US has informed both sides that their plan and timing is not negotiable. Who do they think they are ? Both Bush and Rice claim to be Christians I wonder what Bible they read ! Not the same one I read that is for sure !

At the same time that the USA was once again pushing Israel to give away her covenant land, and at the same time the Anti Hate law that also flies against the Word of God in condoning and protecting idolaters, adulterers, abortionists ( murderers ) and sodomites, raging fires destroyed large parts of Florida and California, and raging floodwaters destroyed towns in other parts of the USA.One has to ask IS GOD TALKING TO THE USA ? & IS ANYBODY LISTENING ?

THE MUSLIMS

Radical Muslim Paramilitary Compound Flourishes in Upper New York State
By Paul L. Williams Ph.D., (author of THE DAY OF ISLAM) Friday, May 11, 2007
http://www.canadafreepress.com

Situated within a dense forest at the foothills of the Catskill Mountains on the outskirts of Hancock, New York, Islamberg is not an ideal place for a summer vacation unless, of course, you are an exponent of the Jihad or a fan of Osama bin Laden. The 70 acre complex is surrounded with No trespassing signs; the rocky terrain is infested with rattlesnakes; and the woods are home to black bears, coyotes, wolves, and a few bobcats. The entrance to the community is at the bottom of a very steep hill that is difficult to navigate even on a bright sunny day in May. The road, dubbed Muslim Lane, is unpaved and marred by deep crevices that have been created by torrential downpours. On a wintry day, few, save those with all terrain vehicles, could venture forth from the remote encampment.

A sentry post has been established at the base of the hill.

The sentry, at the time of this visit, is an African American dressed in Islamic garb a skull cap, a prayer shawl, and a loose fitting shalwat kameez. He instructs us to turn around and leave. Our community is not open to visitors, he says. Behind the sentry and across a small stream stand dozens of inhabitants of the compound the men wearing skull caps and loose fitting tunics, the women in full burqa. They appear ready to deal with any unauthorized intruders. The hillside is blighted by
rusty trailers that appear to be without power or running water and a number of outhouses. The scent of raw sewage is in the air.

The place is even off limits to the local undertaker who says that he has delivered bodies to the complex but has never been granted entrance. They come and take the bodies from my hearse. They won't allow me to get past the sentry post. They say that they want to prepare the bodies for burial.

But I never get the bodies back. I don't know what's going on there but I don't think it's legal. It is home to hundreds all in Islamic attire, and all African-Americans. Most drive late model SUVs with license plates from Pennsylvania, New Jersey, New York, Ohio, South Carolina, and Tennessee. The locals say that some work as tollbooth operators for the New York State Thruway, while others are employed at a credit card processing center that maintains confidential financial records.

Islamberg is not as benign as a Buddhist monastery or a Carmelite convent. Nearly every weekend, neighbors hear sounds of gunfire. Some, including a combat veteran of the Vietnam War, have heard the bang of small explosives. None of the neighbors wished to be identified for fear of retaliation. We don't even dare to slow down when we drive by, one resident said. They own the mountain and they know it and there is nothing we can do about it but move, and we can't even do that. Who wants to buy a property near that? Islamberg's Grocery Store The complex serves to scare the bejeesus out of the local residents. If you go there, you better wear body armor, a customer at the Circle E Diner in Hancock said. They have armed guards and if they shoot you, nobody will find your body. At Cousins, a watering hole in nearby Deposit, a barfly, who didn't wish to be identified, said: The place is dangerous. You can hear gunfire up there. I can't understand why the FBI won't shut it down.

Islamberg is a branch of Muslims of the Americas Inc., a tax-exempt organization formed in 1980 by Pakistani cleric Sheikh Mubarak Ali Gilani, who refers to himself as the sixth Sultan Ul Faqr, Gilani, has been directly linked by court documents to Jamaat ul-Fuqra or ommunity of the impoverished, an organization that seeks to purify Islam through violence. Though primarily based in Lahore, Pakistan, Jamaat ul-Fuqra has operational headquarters in New York and openly recruits through various social service organizations in the U.S., including the prison system. Members live in hamaats or compounds, such as Islamberg, where they agree to abide by the laws of Jamaat ul-Fuqra, which are considered to be above local, state and federal authority. Additional hamaats have been established in Hyattsville, Maryland; Red House, Virginia; Falls Church, Virginia; Macon, Georgia; York, South Carolina; Dover, Tennessee; Buena Vista, Colorado; Talihina, Oklahoma; Tulane Country, California; Commerce, California; and Onalaska, Washington. Others are being built, including an expansive facility in Sherman, Pennsylvania.

Before becoming a citizen of Islamberg or any of the other Fuqra compounds, the recruits primarily inner city black men who became converts in prison are compelled to sign an oath that reads: I shall always hear and obey, and whenever given the command, I shall readily fight for Allah's sake. In the past, thousands of members of the U.S. branches of Jamaat ul-Fuqra traveled to Pakistan for paramilitary training, but encampments, such as Islamberg, are now capable of providing boot-camp training so raw recruits are no longer required to travel abroad amidst the increased scrutiny of post 9/11.

Over the years, numerous members of Jamaat ul-Fuqra have been convicted in US courts of such crimes as conspiracy to commit murder, firebombing, gun smuggling, and workers' compensation fraud.

Others remain leading suspects in criminal cases throughout the country, including ten unsolved assassinations and seventeen fire-bombings between 1979 and 1990. The criminal charges against the group and the criminal convictions are not things of the past. In 2001, a resident of a California compound was charged with first-degree murder in the shooting of a sheriff's deputy; another was charged with gun-smuggling' and twenty-four members of the Red House community were convicted of firearms violations.

Even though Jamaat ul-Fuqra has been involved in terror attacks and sundry criminal activities, recruited thousands of members from federal and state penal systems, and appears to be operating paramilitary facilities for militant Muslims, it remains to be placed on the official US Terror Watch List. On the contrary, it continues to operate, flourish, and expand as a legitimate nonprofit, tax-deductible charity

David's Note: Why does President Bush wage the War on Terror thousands of miles away in Iraq, but does nothing about an obvious Islamid terror facility on his doorstep ?

HOMOSEXUALS & the THOUGHT POLICE

WARNING: THE FOLLOWING BIBLE VERSES ARE NOW CLASSED AS HATE LITERATURE AND ARE OUTLAWED IN MANY WESTERN NATIONS - BEWARE THE THOUGHT POLICE MAY BE MONITORING YOU RIGHT NOW !!!

Lev 18:21-22 I am the LORD. You shall not lie with a male as with a woman. It is an abomination. (NKJ)

Rom 1:24-27 Therefore God also gave them up to uncleanness, in the lusts of their hearts, to dishonor their bodies among themselves, who exchanged the truth of God for the lie, and worshiped and served the creature rather than the Creator, who is blessed forever. Amen. For this reason God gave them up to vile passions. For even their women exchanged the natural use for what is against nature. Likewise also the men, leaving the natural use of the woman, burned in their lust for one another, men with men committing what is shameful, and receiving in themselves the penalty of their error which was due. (AIDS)(NKJ)

Will Bush Veto Thought Police'? World Net Daily
Opponents say hate crimes plan would destroy American freedoms

The nation's largest public policy women's group is asking President Bush to commit to a veto of a hate crimes plan that, as WND has reported, opponents fear would target Christians and be used to demolish both freedom of speech and religion in the United States. Last week the House Judiciary Committee, egged on by radical homosexual groups, passed what can only be called a Thought Crimes bill, said former White House insider Chuck Colson in his Breakpoint commentary. It's called the Local Law Enforcement Hate Crimes Prevention Act. But this bill is not about hate. It's not even about crime. It's about outlawing peaceful speech – speech that asserts that homosexual behavior is morally wrong.

The call for the veto promise came from leaders at Concerned Women for America, who said they have written to the president with their request, because Congress is poised to approve H.R. 1592 as early as today.

This bill would grant individuals who engaged in homosexual behavior (sexual orientation) or those who cross-dress (gender identity) preferential treatment over other citizens by elevating them to a specially protected class of victim, the organization said. The 14th Amendment guarantees all citizens equal protection under the law, regardless of their chosen sexual behaviors.

There is no evidence to suggest that homosexuals or cross-dresser do not receive equal protection under the law, the CWFA said.

Victims are – and should be – treated equally in the justice system, regardless of their sexual orientation. This hate crimes bill would overturn this balance, creating second-class victims and a federal justice system that discriminates against grandmothers, children, women and men simply because they are heterosexual, said CWFA President Wendy Wright. We cannot imagine that President Bush would sign a bill that would create a two-tiered justice system that discriminates against grandmothers, she said.

Some say we need this law to prevent attacks on homosexuals. But we already have laws against assaults on people and property, Colson continued. Moreover, according to the FBI, crimes against homosexuals in the United States have dropped dramatically in recent years. In 2005, out of 863,000 cases of aggravated assault, just 177 cases were crimes of bias against homosexuals…He noted, that in other locations, such as England, Sweden, Canada, and even Philadelphia, where similar laws have been approved, the Thought Police already have prosecuted Christians. In Philadelphia, a grandmother was hauled to jail and threatened with 47 years in prison for proclaiming her Christianity on a public street. One Philadelphia woman, Arlene Elshinnawy, 75, and grandmother of three, was holding a sign: Truth is hate to those who hate the truth, before she was hauled off by police officers.

If this dangerous law passes, pastors who preach sermons giving the biblical view of homosexuality could be prosecuted. Christian businessmen who refuse to print pro-gay literature could be prosecuted. Groups like Exodus International, which offer therapy to those with unwanted same-sex attraction, could be shut down, Colson warned. In classic 1984 fashion, peaceful speech will be redefined as a violent attack worthy of punishment. He said that's known because during debate over the plan, U.S. Rep. Mike Pence, R-Ind., offered an amendment to assure that the law would not be used to limit the religious freedom of any person or group, and majority Democrats on the committee refused it.

It also refused to adopt amendments protecting other groups from hate crimes – like members of the military, who are often targets of verbal attacks and spitting. They also shot down amendments that would protect the homeless and senior citizens … Nothing doing, the committee said – the only group they wanted to protect: homosexuals.

Clearly, the intent of this law is not to prevent crime, but to shut down freedom of speech, freedom of religion, and freedom of thought, he said. Matt Barber, CWA's policy director for cultural issues, said such narrow focus by Democrats makes clear the exclusionary and discriminatory nature of this bill. The concerns also were echoed by Peter LaBarbera of Americans for Truth. This is really about getting the heavy hand of the federal government in promoting homosexuality as a civil right, he said.

Observers at the committee debate over the bill noted that nowhere in the bill are the terms sexual orientation or gender identity defined, but Democrats declined to even include that in the proposal.

Rev. Ted Pike, of The National Prayer Network, said reality needs to be faced. Not only do pro -hate bill Democrats have 34 more votes than the Republicans, but at least several dozen Republicans are probably committed to vote for the hate bill. This means that in order to even have a tie in the House more than 55 members would have to cancel their pledge to vote for the hate bill. Not a good possibility, he said.

However, the Senate is different. The pro-hate bill forces may have as many as 65 votes, more than the 60 necessary to win. This includes about 14 Republicans; but if six Republicans are dissuaded from supporting the hate bill, [the plan] will not pass. The federal hate bill would be destroyed, at least for this session of Congress, he said. Glen Lavy, of the Alliance Defense Fund, earlier wrote to Congress warning the plan would criminalize thoughts and beliefs. This is a terrible thing, to criminalize thought or emotion or even speech, Lavy told WND. And Bishop Harry Jackson, chairman of the High Impact Leadership Coalition, said the plan, the Local Law Enforcement Hate Crimes Protection Act of 2007, is no more than a surreptitious attempt by some in Congress to strip the nation of religious freedom and the ability to preach the gospel from our church pulpits. It will stamp all over our doctrine and practice of our faith, he said. We believe what the Bible says. If you start there we've got a major problem.

WND columnist Janet Folge r earlier warned in a commentary called Pastors: Act now or prepare for jail, that in New Hampshire, a crime that typically carries a sentence of 3 1/2 years was enhanced to 30 years because a robber shouted an anti-homosexual name at his victim. Folger's organization, Faith2Action, is the group that was launched the ads about Philadelphia grandmothers who were thrown in jail in Pennsylvania under that state's hate crimes law.

The proposal is by U.S. Rep. John Conyers, D-Mich., the head of the House Judiciary Committee. Pike said technically, the proposal would make it federally indictable to…attempt to…intimidate' a homosexual from believing that he (even if he has AIDS or hepatitis) has the right to work in a restaurant, be employed as a police officer or summer camp counselor, or has equal rights to housing and employment anywhere he wishes. A pastor, Christian broadcaster or publisher who verbally attempts to intimidate homosexuals by describing homosexuality as an abomination (Lev. 18:22) are thus high-profile targets for indictment under this legislation, he said.

AMERICA IS IN DIRE & IMMINENT DANGER - PRAY ! PRAY ! PRAY !

The Lord bless you as you bless Israel by standing in defense of her right to exist on the land given to the Jewish people by the God of Israel . Do not be silent, but share this to your fellow Christians, share it with your pastors and with anyone you have a chance to speak to. Lets also pray for that breakthrough to the Muslims, and please remember to pray for our son Jordan, and all of his fellow soldiers in the IDF.

Shalom .. . David & Josie
