Keep Lobbying The Maryland House Of Delegates To Preserve Marriage!

Please contact House Delegates NOW

The latest word is that the same sex marriage bill's supporters are still a few votes short of the 71 votes needed to send the bill to the governor. Read the Times article on how you have made a difference.

But activists are pulling out all the stops, seeking to win over the handful of delegates who have not yet declared how they will vote. The full House opened debate on the bill today, with a vote to come at any time. We need your help today. Help keep the pressure up! Help make sure your delegate gets the message: The people of Maryland do not want to redefine marriage. Period.

Cardinal O'Malley Trashes His Diocesan Catholic Schools

He has just announced that they will admit children of gay "parents".  Do you think that the teachers will be free to proclaim the truth of God's provisions for matrimony and family life?  I direct you to the post of my colleague of Throw The Bums Out, who lives there and must deal with the mess that is in front of her face, to the everlasting shame of the feckless Cardinal O'Malley and his minions of his chancery.

Your Laugh For Today!

I have to agree with Lifesite News that this thing is funny!  Click here if you can't see embedded video.



It's billed as "an expose of the National Organization for Marriage".   And get this!  Are you sitting down?  According to this, "NOM actually maintains close ties with (gasp!) the Mormon church, the Catholic Church hierarchy, as well as right-wing evangelical pastors".  Oh, the perfidy, the shock and scandal of it all!!

Now that you've recovered from your fainting attacks, why not take a stroll over to NOM's website?  You'll notice that NOM makes no secret of its relationships - and why should it?  The defense of marriage as a God-ordained indissoluable union between one man and one woman is an honorable undertaking.

The outfit that produced the tripe that you just watched call themselves "NOM Exposed".  Well, let's take a stroll over to their website.  Right off the bat we see that this is a project of the Human Rights Campaign.  They, of course, are a "gay rights" outfit.  Consider the source.
