Hate Crimes Bill

The Obama administration has signaled that it plans to secure passage of S.909, the "Hate Crimes" bill, this week.

Punishing wrong beliefs about homosexuality is its sole purpose.

The House has already passed and the Senate is expected to vote this week on legislation that would create a new class of crimes based on the victim's "actual or perceived sexual orientation or gender identity." Even more troubling is that S.909 could create special protections for pedophiles. Democrats voted down an amendment to the bill that would have excluded pedophilia and other "sexual orientations" from the definition of "sexual orientation."

"If a mother hears that their child has been raped, and she slaps the assailant with her purse, she is now gone after as a hate criminal because this is a protected class," said Rep. Louie Gohmert, R-Texas. She could and probably would go to jail for it!!

For years, AFA and other pro-family groups have issued warnings about federal Hate Crimes legislation. The reality is that the purpose of this bill is to silence those who speak out against homosexuality. If the legislation passes, pastors could be prosecuted under the federal inducement statute for preaching the biblical view of homosexuality.

For example, a person could commit an act of violence against a homosexual individual and blame it on the pastor's sermon. Similar laws have been used to prosecute religious speech in the U.S. at the state level and abroad. Then the pastor could go to jail!!

We already saw what happened to Miss California. I am unaware what events she did not attend. However after her pro marriage comment we knew it was only a matter of time before they ousted her for something.

Just another thing obama is doing at warp speed to ruin the country.

Go Miss California!!

I just could not wait until this Thursday to share this story.

During the Miss USA pageant Sunday, finalist Carrie Prejean, Miss California, was asked about gay marriage by Perez Hilton, the openly gay celebrity blogger who was serving as a pageant judge. She replied that she believed that marriage should be between a man and a woman. The next day, Hilton criticized her for the remark, and pageant organizer Donald Trump suggested that her answer may have cost her the crown. She was first runner up. GOOD FOR HER!! I guess she was unaware that lying and trying to please the world is what gets you rewarded here. I am so glad she knows her reward is in Heaven.

I did a little reading on her and this is what I found:

"I knew there were secular judges,but I felt I needed to express my passion for the Lord."

Carrie Prejean is dedicated to serving the Lord and is not at all shy about her Christianity--even on national television. As the new 2009 Miss California USA, Carrie has shown that she can balance the pressures of national competition with her desire to share Christ's love with younger women.

Carrie has recently been serving with a ministry that seeks to reveal Christ's transforming love to women in the adult entertainment industry. Led by a young women who herself was delivered by Christ, the group "gets real" with these women and discusses their problems and life struggles. Carrie feels that she can connect with women her age and believes that God is using her to bring hope to others.

In addition to her passion for young women, Carrie has volunteered at the local International Ministry Center where she has helped refugees learn to speak English. She is also involved with Voices for Children, a mentor program for children in foster care. "I've been extremely passionate about that. I especially have a heart for helping young girls with low self-esteem. I want to focus on San Diego and give back to my community", she said.

Carrie is currently a student at San Diego Christian College, but decided to take the spring semester of 2009 off to prepare and compete in the Miss USA Pageant, which took place on April 19th. Her goal is to return to SDCC to finish her Bachelors Degree, and to later obtain a Masters Degree in the field of Special Education.
