You can see the full text of the bill, and what is deleted from current CA law here:
This bill allows groups that advocate the violent overthrow of the US Government to not only rent government buildings for meetings or events, but also to teach in the Public School and university system! I’ve sometimes joked about California being communist, but this is no joke. California is really going off the deep end. When all is said and done, the only things California school children will learn in the classroom are:
Communism = Good
Homosexuality = Good (see SB 777 and Assembly Bill 394)(and if you don’t think so, your racist)
Drugs = Good
USA = Bad
Christians = Evil
And all this leads to one other false comparison Arnold Schwarzenegger = Republican. Ha ha, It’d actually be funny if he wasn’t messing with the minds of over 6 million children still trapped in California’s public school system. Who knows, he may end up helping the courts force home-schooled children into the mental madness that is the California public school system.

I don’t generally nitpick and judge people in regards to their private faith. However, when a person boasts that not only are they a Christian, but a devout Christian, they open their personal faith up to public scrutiny. Let’s see what Obama said about his faith, and compare it to what the bible says, and what Obama does.
In terms of my faith, you know, there has been so much confusion that has been deliberately perpetrated through emails and so forth. So, just here are the simple facts. I am a Christian. I am a devout Christian. I have been a member of the same church for 20 years. Pray to Jesus every night, and try to go to church as much as I can when they are not working me. Used to go quite often. These days, we haven’t been at the home church, I haven’t been home on Sunday, for several months now. So, my faith is important to me. It is not something that I try to push on other people. But it is something that helps to guide my life and my values.
-Barack Obama
Perhaps as a “devout Christian,” Obama should consider these doctrines:
(in regards to his recent regret of trying to save Terri Schiavo’s life from death by dehydration)
For I was hungry, and ye gave me no meat: I was thirsty, and ye gave me no drink: I was a stranger, and ye took me not in: naked, and ye clothed me not: sick, and in prison, and ye visited me not. Then shall they also answer him, saying, Lord, when saw we thee hungry, or athirst, or a stranger, or naked, or sick, or in prison, and did not minister unto thee? Then shall he answer them, saying, Verily I say unto you, Inasmuch as ye did it not to one of the least of these, ye did it not to me.
(Matthew 25:42-45)
In regards to his choice of church, which has a pastor which exalts racist Loius Farrakhan:
Acts 17:24-26 God that made the world and all things therein, seeing that he is Lord of heaven and earth, dwelleth not in temples made with hands; (25) Neither is worshiped with men’s hands, as though he needed any thing, seeing he giveth to all life, and breath, and all things; (26) And hath made of one blood all nations of men for to dwell on all the face of the earth, and hath determined the times before appointed, and the bounds of their habitation;
Acts 10:34-35 Then Peter opened his mouth, and said, Of a truth I perceive that God is no respecter of persons: (35) But in every nation he that feareth him, and worketh righteousness, is accepted with him.
In regard’s to his fervent support of abortion and his killing of “Born Alive” in Illinois (you could even put his stance on Terri here too)
Proverbs 6:16-19 These six things doth the LORD hate: yea, seven are an abomination unto him: (17) A proud look, a lying tongue, and hands that shed innocent blood, (1
A heart that deviseth wicked imaginations, feet that be swift in running to mischief, (19) A false witness that speaketh lies, and he that soweth discord among brethren.
How he figured out that Jesus’s Sermon on the Mount condones Homosexuality.(see verses here) is beyond me.
Barack’s recent escalated trumpeting of Christ’s name seems merely an attempt to counter the circulating rumors and Farrakhan(Nation of Islam) connection that seem to align Obama more closely with Allah than Jehovah. Perhaps a form of Islamic Christianity? (I mean, Farrakhan would not endorse an infidel)
They surely are Infidels who say, “God is the third of three:” for there
is no God but one God: and if they refrain not from what they say, a grievous
chastisement shall light on such of them as are Infidels.
(The Qur’an (Rodwell tr), Sura 5 - The Table).
When ye encounter the infidels, strike off their heads till ye have made
a great slaughter among them, and of the rest make fast the fetters.
And afterwards let there either be free dismissals or ransomings, till
the war hath laid down its burdens. Thus do. Were such the pleasures of God,
he could himself take vengeance upon them: but He would rather prove the one of
you by the other. And whoso fight for the cause of God, their works he will
not suffer to miscarry
(The Qur’an (Rodwell tr), Sura 47 - Muhammad)
How Obama can claim to be a devout Christian when he promotes the slaughter of the innocent and other abominations is completely beyond me. There can be no doubt this is a political ploy attempting however vainly to present himself as a moderate friendly to Christian values.
Be not deceived. This man is a wolf in sheep’s clothing.

Check out this video. According to Entertainment Tonight, it was put out by Hollywood. In it you will here homage and reverence paid to Barack Obama in a spiritual style. Listen closely and you will hear that Obama is the “hope for the soul.” to the intoning of “Obama! Obama!” This style of campaigning seems to verge on worship of a man, transfiguring Obama into a sort of secular messiah.
“behold the candidate of Farrakhan, which taketh away the ailments of the world!”
-The book of Hollywood 6:66
It is interesting to see how this campaign is transforming from an American Idol/Miss America campaign to a Messiah coronation. In between all the glitz and glam people continue to ignore the MASSIVE spending he freely speaks of.
Some other highlights of the Obama Worship Video:
he is really going to be the president of the united states
I believe in Obama, because he believes in us
A quote from the Dipdive website, host of the Obama Worship Video:
some say this whole Obama movement is “cult like”…
well…
if it comes across cult like…
then…
the cult is called America…
Last I checked, America wasn’t a cult. In fact the founding father’s rejected cultish leader worship by rejecting a kingship for America’s leader. But rather, a leader picked by a vote, who had to be re-elected to retain his power. Titles and majesty were rejected. Certainly the leader was not to be revered as a god-like figure.
Here is the video in all its eerie “glory” :

Barack defended his religion by saying that he prays to Jesus every night and that we’d feel comfortable in his home church, Trinity United Church of Christ. This church’s pastor and magazine have extolled the goodness of Louis Farrakhan. That alone would make me feel uncomfortable in that church. To sit under the teaching and preaching of a pastor who is close to a racist islamist is unthinkable. No man of God with any knowledge of scripture would endorse a racist.

Obama chose as his response to the question of one regret, probably the only truly bipartisan and solidly moral vote he ever made. Who in their right mind could, if given the chance to look back over years of their life, would choose to regret trying to save someone who couldn’t save herself?
Perhaps this gives us all further incite into the mind of a man who goes far beyond almost anyone else in the pro-choice camp. This despite the professed RACISM of Planned Parenthood, one of the largest abortion supporters.
As sick as his regret about attempting to save Schiavo’s life actually makes Obama’s stance consistent with his other views. Barack Obama clearly promotes a culture of death for those who cannot speak for themselves.
If you support life, don’t support Barack Obama.

Despite Obama’s attempts to distance himself from hatemonger Farrakhan, Farrakhan still loves him. According to an article published by the Anti Defamation League:
When someone close to a political figure shows sympathy and support for an individual who makes his name espousing bigotry, that political figure needs to distance himself from that decision. Senator Obama has done just that.
However, he must not be too distant from Farrakhan. He continues to extol Obama’s virtue. Just a brief exert from his recent “Saviors” day speech will show what Loius thinks of Barack:
“If you look at Barack Obama’s [diverse] audiences and look at the effect of his words, those people are being transformed from what they were,” Farrakhan said. “This young man is the hope of the entire world that America will change and be a better place.”
The Nation of Islam is a “rich blend” of fanatical Islam mixed with violent racial and religious bigotry. It’s embrace of Barack Obama should lead us all to examine Barack’s faith and values. Faith is a personal issues, yes. But the faith of the leader of the United States will affect his views and actions. The Nation of Islam would not embrace a practicing Christian, which Barack professes to be. Barack is a member of a racialist church which espouses a commitment to Africa above anything else(This is an archived copy of the page, you can see the current page here- it was changed because of questions raised about the “Black Values System”).
The president of the United States is to uphold and defend the Constitution above all else. Values and integrity are required to uphold and defend the rights of those who cannot defend their own.
Obama’s riding a wave of Rhetoric that will wash over America should he be elected president. This wave will do to America what Hurricane Katrina did to New Orleans and the surrounding areas.

The board of a nonprofit organization on which Sen. Barack Obama served as a paid director alongside a confessed domestic terrorist granted funding to a controversial Arab group that mourns the establishment of Israel as a “catastrophe” and supports intense immigration reform, including providing drivers licenses and education to illegal aliens.
The co-founder of the Arab group in question, Columbia University professor Rashid Khalidi, also has held a fundraiser for Obama. Khalidi is a harsh critic of Israel, has made statements supportive of Palestinian terror and reportedly has worked on behalf of the Palestine Liberation Organization while it was involved in anti-Western terrorism and was labeled by the State Department as a terror group.
The name of the group is the Arab American Action Network(AAAN), a group that opposes Israel’s existence and holds that denying drivers’ licenses to illegal immigrants is anti-Arab bigotry. The official website for the AAAN has only an ad for a concert (as of2/25/08). Googling for the website brings up this page, not linked to on the home page, which seems to be seeking stories from people about before Israel’s existence.
Further,
…Robert Malley, a principal Obama foreign policy adviser, has penned numerous opinion articles, many of them co-written with a former adviser to the late Palestinian Authority President Yasser Arafat, petitioning for dialogue with Hamas and blasting Israel for numerous policies he says harm the Palestinian cause.
Israel has been the most stable and anti-terrorist nation in the Middle East. Any presidential candidate who opposes or is sympathetic to those who oppose Israel’s existence will only cause America trouble.

Barack believe America owes the LGBT community, but what does America owe it? The “right” to marry? Marriage is nowhere guaranteed in the constitution. Further marriage by any major dictionary is a union between a man and a woman. They want to fundamentally rewrite the language of the nation to accommodate their lifestyle. They want sexual orientation, cross dressing, and transgenderism to be protected classes, privy to the same protections as women and ethnic minorities. If this happens, it will be the first time a non-physical changeable condition will be protected under federal discrimination law. The advocacy of this makes a mockery of the whole civil rights movement and criminalizes the thought and actions and beliefs of Christianity which are based on the Bible.
Gay City News Endorsement (From Barack Obama’s official campaign website)
(Bold words were highlighted by me)
In a presidential inaugural address that inspired a teenager from Hope, Arkansas named Bill Clinton, John F. Kennedy famously urged Americans to focus not on what the country could do for them, but on what contributions they could make to the nation.
Mind you, we in the LGBT community are not yet nearly at the point where this nation has made good on the contributions it owes to our lives, our families, our well-being, even our equal citizenship. Faced with the choice of two progressive Democrats who have spoken at length and with conviction about the challenges facing our lives, we still don’t have the luxury of picking a candidate who will advocate for our right to marry. We must yet take it on faith that the next president will have the fortitude to insist that Congress - including too many stragglers within the Democratic Party - open up the nation’s military to out gay and lesbian patriots. It is far from certain that the next time the Democratic Congress takes up an employment nondiscrimination measure it will include transgendered Americans as well as gay men and lesbians among those protected.
But after seven years of George W. Bush, and compared against the prospect of either John McCain or Mitt Romney, Hillary Rodham Clinton and Barack Obama truly offer hope to LGBT Americans that help is on the way.
Given that the two Democratic contenders share a similar, generally friendly and supportive posture toward LGBT Americans, we ought to think about the message our choice sends about a fundamental question - what our politics should be all about. We are finding our place here and there at the table, but we have also spent much of our life on the outside. The nation needs to hear our views on how American politics can accommodate new voices in the mix.
Judged by that measure and taking full stock of how the Democratic nomination contest has unfolded, we believe the choice is clear.
Gay City New endorses Barack Obama.
Because the government does not have a special recognition of 2 people’s relationship does not mean they are unequal citizens. I would rather America remove any and all financial, tax, and social benefits of Marriage than to have the meaning of the word redefined so a certain segment of the population can feel better about itself and how the government endorses its relationships.

As we near the end of Black History Month, let us consider the famous words of Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr:
I have a dream that my four little children will one day live in a nation where they will not be judged by the color of their skin but by the content of their character.
That is the dream, whereby man would look beyond the surface and judge men by their values, beliefs and standards. Much progress has been made in that direction in America.
We have gone from a time where the legal system looked another way when a black man whistled at a white woman. Racism has been evicted from America’s public square. By and large it only finds refuge in the hearts of men (and women) who’s hearts are hardened, who’s minds are narrow, who’s only claim to self worth is the putting down of another based on the color of their skin.
Today, however, skin color has again returned to America’s public square. As we race towards the 2008 presidential elections, change has become the buzz word. In many circles the prospect of a Black or woman president has trumped all other issues.
McCain, Bush, the Clintons are painted as stogy old white establishment types. Relative youth and skin color are trumpeted as the best assets of a candidate this year, in 2008.
The truth of the matter is this: once you peel off the surface, there is no substantial difference in the agendas that will be pursued by a President Hillary Clinton or Barack Obama.
There is a song that has been co-opted in some areas as a sort of theme song for this years election season: Matchbox 20’s “How far we’ve come.” The music video to this song seems to attempt a historical chronology of the women’s and civil rights movements, cumulating in cheering images of Barack Obama’s and Hillary’s supporters.
There is no doubt that the Civil Rights Movement and certain aspects of the women’s movement have legitimately leveled the social and economic playing fields. However, the problem comes when the cumulation of these efforts is presented as Hillary and Obama. The Euphoria over the potential of a “first” black/woman candidate has completely hijacked democrats and would be social progressives. Any attack that would be directed at Obama’s policies or values can, and sometimes is, twisted into racism. Gender and skin tone becomes a defense in liu of answers.
Barack Obama himself says he is gaging racism by whether or not whites vote for him.
“If I do well in Iowa, and if I do well in New Hampshire . . . then by the time we get to South Carolina, I think we will have dispelled the notion that somehow whites won’t vote for African Americans.” -
SOURCE
This is audacious in every sense of the word. Ignoring the issues and diving straight for the cover all. I would vote for the President regardless of his or her color, that stands closest to what is best for America.
Barack Obama’s massive spending/taxing plans, advocacy for homosexuality, blanket amnesty for illegal immigrants, abortion views to the left of NARAL and NOW, coolness towards Israel, and his flippant attitude towards drugs will send this nation on a crash course with economic recession and moral decline. Ultimately the other 2 candidates, Hillary and McCain, are watered down versions of Obama’s radicalism (though in Hillary’s case only very slightly so).
It will send the message: Skin matters more than issues.
It sure seemed like we’ve come along way since Dr King’s famous speech. However, here we are as a nation still judging people by the color of their skin.
It will only be a matter of time before we are all judged for our actions this year. This election has the potential to change the heart and soul of a nation.
If you LOVE America, if you sincerely want the best for this country look behind the smooth talking, the glitzy publicity war, the buzz words and rock concert style slogans and chantings.
Look at the issues. Pray. We’re not voting for the next American Idol here. Image and stage presence are not going to save us all.
King was murdered for his bold position, that all men are equal. If you love civil rights, if you support on any level the legacy he has handed us down through the civil rights movement, then reject the politics of “famous firsts.” Focus on the issues. Focus on America.
Let’s live the dream.

The Archbishop of the Anglican Church has encouraged the adoption of Islamic law! This Bishop is clearly so ignorant of Islam, and so ignorant of his own religion, that he should not even be preaching in a local church, let alone be an Archbishop! What a sad commentary on the leadership quality of the Anglican Church, and the state of Christianity in general, that an alleged Christian would advocate for such a satanically inspired legal system to be adopted. Fortunately, some still have a sense of what Sharia law would do, and are calling for this ignorant archbishop to resign.
This is just a sampling of what is happening to the Anglican Church worldwide:
The controversy follows the developing split in the Anglican Community over homosexuality, as up to a quarter of the 800-plus Anglican bishops worldwide plan to boycott the church’s annual Lambeth Conference this year. The church’s American branch, the Episcopal Church, has adopted a pro-homosexual agenda, leading some U.S. congregations to abandon their national leadership if favor of more conservative leaders from Africa.
