RSS This BlogWas a resolution by the city of San Francisco condemning the Catholic Church’s teachings on homosexuality a violation of the U.S. Constitution or an expression of free speech?
Oral arguments on this issue will be heard Wednesday by a panel of the Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals.
The debate is a result of
The document called on Cardinal William Levada, in his capacity as head of the Congregation for the Doctrine of the Faith at the Vatican, to withdraw his “discriminatory and defamatory directive” that Catholic Charities of the Archdiocese of San Francisco stop placing children in need of adoption with homosexual households.
According to Catholic teaching, children should not be adopted by homosexual couples, because it does violence to them in the sense that the same-sex environment is not conducive to the children’s full human development. A child has a right to a mother and a father, and non-natural promotion of other “family” orders is not proper.
John McCain faces criticism over his Gay Adoption opinion…
As several gay rights groups criticized Senator
In an interview with The New York Times that was published Sunday that he opposed allowing same-sex couples to adopt children. “I think that we’ve proven that both parents are important in the success of a family so, no, I don’t believe in gay adoption,” he said.
Talk radio for Christians still leads the way in desire…
More believers are tuning in to Christian radio for reasons other than music than some might think, according to a new survey.
While the most popular reason for tuning in to Christian radio was to listen to Christian music (56 percent), 40 percent of Christians say they tune in to listen to sermons and teaching, the Wilson Research Strategies survey found.
"There is a much higher demand for teaching programs than what the conventional wisdom might expect," commented Rick Dunham, president and CEO of Dunham+Company, which commissioned the survey.
What is the “real” quality of a life…
More than half of people in the US would rather be dead than disabled says a new survey. A US website for disabled people ran the survey which asked, "Which would you choose: Living with a severe disability that forever alters your ability to live an independent life, or death?" 52 per cent of the respondents chose death.
The survey, run by the online community and website Disaboom, found that differences in attitude toward disability were based on age, income, geographic location, and level of education. 63 percent of younger Americans chose death over disability, while of those of the so-called "boomer generation" (people between the age of 55 and 64 years) 50 percent chose death. 56 percent of Americans 65 and older would rather die than live with a disability.
Things are more and more expensive…
Consumer prices shot up in June at the second fastest pace in 26 years with two-thirds of the surge blamed on soaring energy prices.
The Labor Department reported that consumer prices jumped 1.1 percent last month, much worse than had been expected. Energy prices rocketed upward by 6.6 percent, reflecting big gains for gasoline, home heating oil and natural gas.

Actually the Bible tells us that homosexuals/the effeminate will not inherit the kingdom of God, so they probably won't be getting blessed at the final judgement unless God has a change of heart which He probably won't because He doesn't change no matter how much we want Him to to fit our society based sense of right and wrong. It's amazing how we pick and choose what we want to believe from the pages of scripture. Anyway, all of our good works are like dirty rags before Him unless we are born again and have repented of our sins. Christians should definitely adopt...it is a wonderful shadow of our own adoption by the Father. Also, Christians don't accept homosexuality because the Bible (which is the inspired word of God, not just a good book but THE good book) tells us that it is against the plan of God which includes a husband and a wife (representing Jesus and his bride, the church). Heterosexuality is not an abomination to God according to His Word, but homosexuality is.

I agree that the Christians should be adopting the children on the adoption rolls here in our own country FIRST. I do NOT approve of gay couples adopting any more than I approve of child molesters adopting. I am also opposed to gays becoming artificially fertilized to produce offspring. I am also opposed to gay marriage. The whole idea of a child being raised by "parents" that engage in such behavior is just plain sickening to me and is an abomination to God. Children already have an overwhelmingly difficult world to survive in without the added confusion of being raised by individuals who concern themselves only with their own lusts. That by the way includes those who are consumed by their lust for money, power, possessions, and fame as well as their lust for others in a sexual context. I believe gay couples attempt to legitimize and justify their union through so-called marriages and adoption and artificial fertilization. God isn't fooled.

But the real point is..there are a huge number of children who need adoption. The majority of these precious ones are sibling groups and teenagers and the disabled(the ones who are the hardest to place)!! Instead of bashing gays about adopting, Gods people should be adopting children and emptying the roles of hard to place children. It is easy to bash gays, calling them sinners and worse but this is an instance of those "sinners" being more righteous than those calling themselves righteous! I do not condone homosexuality, it is sin just like all others. But people of God you need to get on with God's work.
"Whatsoever you did to the least of these my brothers...you did unto ME",- Judgment Day being described by The Lord Jesus Himself. (Matthew 25)
Who will be rewarded..those who adopted, or those who while grumping about those ungodly gays who adopted His little ones turned their faces away from orphans. WAKE UP CHURCH!
