our defense budget is somewhere near 80 percent.Actually, all welfare programs including Social Security comprises over 50% of the Federal budget.
House of Cards
There is an old saying, "The blackest lies is 10% pure truth."
When discussing issues with Atheists I find they want Christians to prove Christian Principles, but are unwilling to prove Atheistic Principles.
Atheists do not want to try to prove the Atheistic Principles, because they know the Atheistic Principles are faith based the same as Christian Principles.
Atheists expect Christians to accept what they say as truth, and if that does not occur, they call the Christians stupid.
Atheistic Principles are like a house of cards, you pull one out and the whole thing falls down.
Atheists know issues like welfare, health care, stem cell research, evolution, etc. are just faith based promises/theories that are not based on proof.
The thing I like about the Bible is that it is a Basic Instruction Book for Living Everyday. It discusses the past, the present and the future. Some of the Bible is faith based, but nowhere is there a more complete presentation of humans nature, events and understanding.
Atheists pick something here and pick something there, but the pieces do no fit together.
I have no problem with science, so long as it is not used to attack the Bible. The place where science is used to attack the Bible, is where Christians should state, "prove it".
An example is evolution. Science has shown there is adaptation. Atheists took the information science had produced and extrapolated to the concept that living matter came for non living matter, which cannot be proven and is an attack on the Bible.

The following Email describes a situation in Massachusetts that should bring Christians to their knees, and scare every American. Massachusetts is being used to develop a homosexual legalization program that will be used to force homosexuality on all of America through the public school system.
The Bible clearly call homosexuality evil and AIDS confirms that homosexuality leads to disease, death and destruction.
If Christians allow the homosexuals in Massachusetts to win the Cultural War, I believe America will be judged by God.

=== 1. National homosexual groups targeting children file in US First Circuit Court to stop appeal in David Parker lawsuit. GLSEN and PFLAG, as well as GLAD all file appearance in case. Reveals nationwide importance of Parker's court action. ===
As David Parker's lawyers prepare to appeal the ruling against his federal civil rights lawsuit against the Lexington School system, three major homosexual activist groups have officially filed their appearance in the case, and will be submitting amicus briefs as part of their effort to stop his appeal.
Read the official appearance document here
http://www.massresistance.org/docs/parker_lawsuit/GLSEN_appearance_doc.pdf
David Parker, his wife, and another couple, the Wirthlins, are suing the Lexington, MA school system over the teaching and normalization of homosexual behavior in the elementary schools, purposefully without parents' knowledge or consent, or ability to opt out.
Earlier this year, Federal District Court Judge Mark Wolf issued an unbelievable ruling against the Parkers which, among other things, gives schools in Massachusetts the right to teach homosexuality at will, without parents' input, consent, or even knowledge. The Parkers are appealing.
Read the ruling here.
http://www.massresistance.org/docs/parker_lawsuit/hearing_020707/hearing_dismissed.html
More on the Parkers' case and events leading up to it.
http://www.massresistance.org/docs/parker/index.html
The three homosexual groups which have filed to take part in the defense of the school system are:
· GLSEN - Gay Lesbian Straight Education Network
Very powerful national homosexual group targeting children in schools. This is the group that organizes the horrific "Gay-straight alliance" clubs, homosexual school assemblies, the "Day of Silence", in schools around the country, and annual GLSEN conferences pushing the most extreme homosexual topics and issues on vulnerable kids.
· PFLAG - Parents, Families and Friends of Lesbians and Gays
Also in public schools around the country, and in many ways even more destructive than GLSEN. Very heavy into transgenderism and related behaviors. Recent PFLAG conference also teamed up with the "New England Leather Alliance" which promotes bondage and sado-machosism.
· GLAD - Gay and Lesbian Advocates and Defenders
Well-funded and influential Massachusetts homosexual legal group (partially funded from public money) which specializes in suing government agencies and businesses to force them to accept homosexuality, transgenderism, public sex, and related behaviors. This was the group behind the Goodridge decision on same-sex "marriage" and pushing the new "transgender rights and hate crimes" bill.
(NOTE: We will be presenting more on the history and activities of these groups over the next few months.)
Piling on
These are just the latest pro-homosexual groups to be involved in the fight against David Parker (and all parents).
Pro-homosexual groups already involved in this case and continuing to fight against the Parkers include:
* American Civil Liberties Union (ACLU)
* Human Rights Campaign (national homosexual organization, which gets funding from major US corporations)
* Massachusetts Teachers Association
* Respecting Differences (Lexington activist group)
There is no question that the national homosexual movement considers this a major threat to their ability to go into the public schools and proselytize children without the parents having any power to stop them. This case has already received considerable national media attention that will undoubtedly continue. The Parkers' lawyers have indicated that they are prepared to fight this as far up the judicial ladder as is necessary to win.
What's next?
This week the Parkers are to submit their brief to the First Circuit Court of Appeals.
Then, within approximately 40 days, the opposition will respond with their own brief. There will be a plaintiff's response, and the judge will then decide whether to grant the appeal.
We will keep you informed on each development.
=== 2. Parker case already affecting Mass. legal system! ===
Yes, it's already affecting the legal system. . .
We recently met with a mother who was preparing to take her local school system to court over a particular homosexual-related activity that she felt was going to affect her child in a destructive way. But when she discussed it with her lawyer (who specializes in dealing with public schools) the lawyer told her that the recent ruling by Federal Judge Mark Wolf in the David Parker case would make it difficult for her to win!
As you can imagine, the mother was shocked and very upset. But this is how important the David Parker lawsuit has become, not only here but around the country. And the national homosexual movement knows that - and is prepared to pull out all the stops to make sure that this lawsuit does not get to an appeal.
This also demonstrates that the current Parental Notification Law (Ch. 71, Sec. 32A) is now effectively useless, and a STRONG replacement is desperately needed! (Call your state reps & senators to let them know how important their support for the NEW Parents' rights bill S321 is!)
=== 3. MassResistance radio to be back on air Sept. 1, on new station. ===
We're coming back on the airwaves (and of course, also on the net)! Starting Saturday, Sept. 1, the weekly MassResistance Radio Show will resume broadcasting, with the same hard-hitting news, interviews, features, and commentary as before, which doesn't get reported in the mainstream media.
We will be moving to WRCA 1330 AM in Cambridge, from 11 am to noon every Saturday.
That's right, we'll be broadcasting from studios in Cambridge, MA, the heart of left-wing militant insanity. TUNE IN - or hear the show anytime on the MassResistance website.
MassResistance Radio is back, starting Sept. 1
Saturday mornings 11 am to Noon
WRCA Radio 1330 AM
(and posted on the MassResistance website Sat. evenings)
=== 4. Commentary: Don Feder reveals twisted arguments used by GLSEN, PFLAG, and others to push homosexual programs in schools. ===
As we first reported back in 1995, after years of trying different ways to get government to let them into the public schools, GLSEN discovered that by claiming that they were actually "making schools safe" by promoting homosexuality, that was the key. In a landmark speech that year called "Winning the Culture War" the president of GLSEN bragged that he tricked the entire Massachusetts Legislature into letting gay student clubs into the schools using that approach.

Now - a dozen years later - the homosexual movement has honed that twisted, phony argument into an even more powerful force to push themselves into schools across America. They've ratcheted it up to "safety from being killed" and school authorities are unfortunately falling for it.
Columnist Don Feder (formerly of the Boston Herald) describes this in his excellent article:
Gay activists come up with killer argument
by Don Feder
"Homosexual activists have come up with a killer argument -- without Gay Straight Alliances in the schools, "gay students" will be forced to whack their classmates. . ."

And it looks like Don's been reading the MassResistance Blog!
=== 5. Fundraising drive at $27,365. Help us reach our $100,000 goal! ===
It's been almost a month since our last email (we're now back on our regular schedule) and our summer fundraising drive has unfortunately also been lagging. Our goal is still to reach $100,000 by the end of the summer, which is technically September 21. Can we do it? We need to!
This fall and beyond we are going to be fighting the battles of our lives in the State House. The homosexual lobby is flexing its muscles, and you are the target. Starting with their hideous "transgender rights bill" along with the new Planned Parenthood bill (which would mandate homosexual abortion brainwashing in the schools) and more, along with the new Parents' Rights Bill, it's like nothing we've ever seen.
We're willing to do this fight, but it's going to take money. We must hire more staff. WE NEED EVERYONE'S HELP. We've GOT to make this goal!

It is not. This is a falsehood on which you have been corrected any number of times.The question of non living matter becoming living matter is the central issue of Evolution.
christalee4 quote
Congress, as the representatives of the people decide what constitutes Civil Law. If the Civil Law is consistent with Christian Principles of both the New and Old Testament, the nation will be good. If the Civil Law is consistent with Atheistic Principles, the nation will be evil.
The question of non living matter becoming living matter is the central issue of Evolution.
No it is not. Evolution presupposes the existence of life -- where that life came form is irrelevent.
Perhaps you should spend some time over in the Creation/Evolution subforum and learn what exactly it is you're railing against?
LOL, what?Only to those who know that their religion doesn't allow them to answer that question.
CommisarSteve:CommisarSteve:
Indeed, especially that part where Thomas Jefferson published a version of the New Testament without any miracles or supernatural happenings in it - not to mention the part where Benjamin Franklin said that he doubted Jesus' Divinity.
You gotta be kiddin, Jefferson writes in his private time and that erases the clear intent of all the other forefathers who expresses their opinion clear as day ?
Talk about yer way out in left field and out of touch with reality/history !
The Deism portrayed today is not the Deism of the Eighteenth-Century America though some attempt to twist words and history to suit their politics.
Deism stressed morality and rejected the orthodox Christian view of the divinity of Christ, often viewing him as nothing more than a "sublime" teacher of morality. Thomas Jefferson and John Adams are usually considered the leading American deists.
No, as far as evolution goes, where life came from is completely irrelevant. That is the case whether you have a belief on whether that life came from (be that belief religious or not) or not.Only to those who know that their religion doesn't allow them to answer that question.
