The Third Circuit Court of Appeals today upheld New Jersey’s ban on the “ex-gay” torture of LGBT youth. A similar ban was recently upheld in California. This is yet another loss for NARTH, the Liberty Counsel, and Alliance Defending Freedom.

“The idea that if you take religion out of the public square, if you take the Bible out of the classroom, that that’s neutral – well, no it’s not neutral! It’s a different worldview. I think we should start calling secularism a religion. Because if we did, then we could ban that too, because that’s what they’ve done. They’ve hidden …

“This is an absolutely foundational, non-negotiable, bed-rock American principle: there is a Creator – with a capital ‘C’ (you could look it up) – and he and he alone is the source of the very rights the military exists to protect and defend. An individual who does not understand and believe this has no right to serve in the U.S. …

Acting on behalf of a local woman, the Alabama-based Foundation For Moral Law has filed an amicus brief which urges the Supreme Court to overturn the Tenth Circuit’s strike down of Utah’s ban on same-sex marriage. According to the brief, the woman does not want her late son’s husband to be able to inherit her son’s estate. Foundation for Moral …

Duck Dynasty patriarch Phil Robertson appeared on Tony Perkins’ radio show yesterday to declare that people get STDs because God is angry about their immoral conduct. (Via Good As You)

New York City Councilman Fernando Cabrera, who last week earned widespread condemnation for praising Uganda’s brutally anti-gay regime, yesterday lost his Democratic primary bid for the state Senate. Retaining his seat is Sen. Gustavo Rivera, who took 60% of the vote. Gay City News recaps Cabrera’s downfall: At a time when that government was trying to enact a harshly anti-gay …

Just in via email: Joe, In the newest “Live in Levi’s” commercial, there are many suggestions of what you can do in your Levi jeans. The ad states consumers can do many things in their Levi’s. For several reasons this Levi commercial is distasteful and sends youth the wrong message. Many have found the “unbutton them” and “button them” segment …

“While other companies are choosing to remain neutral in the culture war, Target is going all out to support homosexual marriage. This is a company whose leaders make a mockery of marriage. They make a mockery of God’s Word – and every Christian in this nation should let Target know it is out of step with the majority of Americans …

Now that the Smithsonian has launched an LGBT history collection, Perkins says they should be known as an “unnatural history” museum.

From the Southern Poverty Law Center: Where have all the elected officials gone? The Family Research Council’s (FRC) annual Values Voter Summit (VVS), set for the end of September, is fast approaching. But unlike prior years, very few high profile politicians have confirmed their participation. And the current line up seems more extreme than ever. Could this annual rite of …

“We are deeply disappointed but not surprised at this ruling. We knew we had the most liberal panel of judges on the 7th Circuit. When they denied the state’s request to have the case heard before all ten judges on the court, we pretty much knew what to expect. I was in the courtroom last Tuesday. I knew then what …

“I am very troubled that this court failed to recognize the self-evident truth that children need and deserve a mom and dad. The ruling doesn’t appear to allow society to choose to maintain a coherent definition of marriage. The courts have no true constitutional authority to unilaterally change the definition of our most fundamental social institution. Yet this court is …

“Today the 7th Circuit Court of Appeals sent a shocking and destructive message to Indiana lawmakers and all Hoosier citizens: Moms and Dads are optional. The 40 page decision departs from the constitutional role of the judiciary to interpret the law and instead the Court assumes a moral superiority over the people of Indiana and our elected leaders. The Court …

This morning the Dallas CBS affiliate reported that a group called American Decency will be protesting against Michael Sam at this weekend’s Cowboys game. Another group calling themselves American Decency, about whom I’ve written in the past, wants you to know while they definitely hate homosexuals, they aren’t behind the alleged protest in Dallas. We started the day with hate …

“What was once billed as a Catholic event can no longer be called such. They are openly allowing a sin-based organization to march in their parade and to effectively put their stamp of approval on what the Bible unequivocally calls sinful behavior.  Some faith-based organizations could carry banners and so forth exclaiming the truths of scripture relative to homosexual sin. …

“Here we see the house of cards collapsing that supported the myth that redefining marriage in inevitable. This decision by Judge Feldman in Louisiana is a great win for the cause of marriage, coming as it does on the heels of other pro-marriage court victories, that puts the lie to the claim that it is inevitable the US Supreme Court …

“This ruling is a victory for children, each of whom need and desire a mom and dad, something our public policy should encourage. This decision is a victory for the rule law, and for religious liberty and free speech which are undermined anywhere marriage is redefined. We commend Judge Feldman for refraining from judicial activism and recognizing that Louisiana voters …
