• 15,000 Muslims to Assemble in CT in Support of Sharia & Against ‘Islamophobia’ This Weekend

  May 24, 2012 at 1:52pm

  Sorry, I will be busy celebrating Memorial Day, for the remembrance for those who have died in our nation’s service. Those people who fought for our freedoms that immigrants, like them, liked sooo much that they decided to come over here and try to change them. Besides Islam is not a religion, it is a theocracy.

• NYC Public School Mandates Arabic Language Studies for All 2nd Through 5th Graders

  May 24, 2012 at 1:38pm

  Boy I wish NYC would separate from upstate! Instead of teaching more important subjects to increase their rating, they go with this. English literacy in America is dropping; children have rudimentary math skills at best; and we all know they don’t teach factual history. They should never mandate you take a specific foreign language. The families should have been given a choice from Spanish, French, Arabic, and Latin. If this “stuff” comes upstate, I am homeschooling ASAP.

• These Are The 20 Best Jobs That Don’t Require a College Degree

  May 18, 2012 at 9:43pm

  When I was younger I volunteered at a zoo, shoveling scat. I did it to get the experience of working with exotic animals. I enjoyed every moment even though I came home smelling like…well, you know. I learned more from that experience than I did in some of my college classes.

• The Blaze Invites You to Ask Prominent Atheist Your Most Burning Questions

  Without faith there can be no hope. So if Atheists have no faith what is your reason for life?

• Meet ‘American Heritage Girls’ — A ‘Christ-Centered’ Alternative to the Girl Scouts

  January 2, 2012 at 9:45am

  I am involved in Boy scouts and a Sunday school teacher; but do you really need to be involved with these groups (BSA, GS, AHG) to be of merit. Just go out in the world and do good works. That is all that is asked of you to be a good Christian and an American.

• Are Atheists Right to Sue Over a KY Law Mandating Homeland Security Pledge Reliance Upon God? (Take the Poll)

  December 16, 2011 at 10:24am

  I do not think this is unconstitutional at the Federal level, but the state constitution states:
  Bill of Rights, section 5. “No preference shall ever be given by law to any religious sect, society or denomination; nor to any particular creed, mode of worship or system of ecclesiastical polity” The policy of having that pledge included would go against their state constitution.

• Is an NZ Billboard Showing Mary Holding a Positive Pregnancy Test Offensive?

  December 15, 2011 at 9:24am

  Instead of demonizing these figures with sexual references, they should have a picture of pregnant Mary with a big bow around her belly. Mary and humanity were given a GIFT, not screwed.

• Former CBC Chair: GOP ‘Turning the Clock Back to the Days of Jim Crow’ With Voter ID Laws

  Would they rather we use fingerprint scanners? No need to buy a hand, and we would definately know who they were.

• Alabama Evangelical Leaders Want to Inspire Congregants to Take a Stand on Immigration

  November 15, 2011 at 11:05am

  Continued…
  The need to overhaul the U.S. immigration system is becoming ever more urgent. In the absence of comprehensive immigration reform, states have felt compelled to write their own immigration laws, which are often shortsighted and misguided. The ELCA needs your leadership. We urge you to continue to speak to Congress and the American public to take action on comprehensive immigration reform and the DREAM Act and to explore other compassionate policy reforms that advance the common good.
  As a national church body, the ELCA — our congregations, bishops, schools and millions of individual members — continues to preach, teach, advocate and work with and on behalf of America’s newcomers. This nation has achieved such greatness due to the resilience, labor and intellect of immigrants. We will roll up our sleeves and work tirelessly until this nation is once again a place of welcome and justice for newcomers.
  In God’s grace,

  The Rev. Mark S. Hanson
  Presiding Bishop
  Evangelical Lutheran Church in America
