And since the MSJC ruling, Camenker points out, parents can no longer opt their children out of pro-homosexual lessons and activities in school. During school assemblies, he asserts, speakers will come in and tell the young people gathered "that the Bible's prohibitions on homosexuality are essentially misinterpretations, and if your parents believe them then they're wrong."

I went to the press conference today. We'll see if they cover any of it.

Sodomites held a rally in front of the state house.

Mass. Pro-Family Groups Resist Homosexual Activism's 'Reign of Madness'

By Bill Fancher
May 16, 2005(AgapePress) - Tomorrow (May 17) marks the first anniversary of legalized homosexual marriage in Massachusetts, and a pro-family group there says the citizens have endured a "reign of madness" since the fateful Massachusetts Supreme Judicial Court (MSJC) ruling that cleared the way for same-sex couples to marry legally in that state.

Brian Camenker of the Article 8 Alliance says since the MSJC legalized same-sex unions, Massachusetts has become overrun by homosexuality. "Even driver's licenses now, when you renew them, have a question such as, 'Has your sex changed?'" he notes.

And since the MSJC ruling, Camenker points out, parents can no longer opt their children out of pro-homosexual lessons and activities in school. During school assemblies, he asserts, speakers will come in and tell the young people gathered "that the Bible's prohibitions on homosexuality are essentially misinterpretations, and if your parents believe them then they're wrong."

Parents have even been arrested by police for resisting having their kids exposed to homosexuality, the pro-family advocate claims. "Society is going through this enforced homosexualization in Massachusetts," he says. "It's truly frightening." For example, he points to Lexington parent David Parker, who was arrested and charged with "trespassing"> during a scheduled meeting with the principal and the town's Director of Education over his objections to homosexual curriculum materials.

Camenker and other traditional family supporters feel the MSJC's ruling legalizing homosexual marriage was tantamount to ripping the Constitution of the Commonwealth of Massachusetts into shreds. In addition, he maintains that parents and others who believe in the biblical view of homosexuality are being vilified in the schools by supporters of the educators' unions.

In response to all this, the Article 8 spokesman reveals that a big rally is being planned for City Hall Plaza in Boston, with its number-one priority being to inform the media and the public about what is going on. "Essentially, we're going to outline to the press the kinds of things that have been going on in this year that have oppressed the people," he says, such as "the incredibly accelerated homosexual agenda in the schools because of this [court ruling]."

The Article 8 Alliance and the Parents Rights Coalition have worked together to get four important bills filed in the Massachusetts legislature -- three aimed at constitutionally removing the "rogue judges" on the MSJC who voted to legalize same-sex marriage and to reverse that ruling. The fourth piece of legislation is an updated Parents' Rights Law, which would stop the accompanying homosexual programs in the state's public schools.

How did the conference go? I talked to someone at Article 8 Alliance earlier today, and they said there were gay activists mocking the speakers.

The media, particularly the Boston Globe, and the Metro, are both highly supportive of gay "rights", to the point of obession. They're part of the agenda.

This will be repeated on a national level once the Sup Court does what it inevitable will and imposes gay marriage/civil unions.

1st Corinthians 6:9

Do you not know that the wicked will not inherit the kingdom of God? Do not be deceived: Neither the sexually immoral nor idolaters nor adulterers nor male prostitutes nor homosexual offenders nor thieves nor the greedy nor drunkards nor slanderers nor swindlers will inherit the kingdom of God. seems pretty clear to me....

The media doesn't care.

Neither does Rush or Hannity. Even the "New Media" won't touch these evil bastards.

There were some mockers there but nothing real bad. I heard one guy on a cell-phone saying loudly as he walked by that "there are some jerk offs here who oppose same-sex marriage." I really was sure who he was talking about since the Brookline school literature described "jerking off" and it had nothing to do with us.

TV and print reporters were there. But I will be surprised if we get any big mention. Although I was surprised to here on the radio on the way home a news item that Article 8 would be holding a press conference...first time I ever heard Article 8 mentioned on the news.

It would be helpful if one of the kids could hide an iPod at one of these events to record the "your parents are wrong" stuff. Which speaker said this, and when?

Without proof, it's idle gossip.

These big name radio hosts (pussies) have to "appear" or sound a certain way so they don't offend listeners.
