Breaking news from the ACLU: The Colorado Civil Rights Commission ruled that a Lakewood bakery violated the Colorado Anti-Discrimination Act by refusing to sell a wedding cake to a gay couple, because of the owner’s personal religious beliefs. At a public hearing today, the commission rejected the bakery’s appeal of an earlier finding of unlawful discrimination by an administrative judge. …

“In the strict sense of the term, it is not ‘sexual’ activity at all. The functional difference that distinguishes one sex from the other quite literally has nothing to do with same-sex activity. That activity abstracts from the functionally defined difference in order exclusively to focus on bodily feelings and emotions that are important to the individuals involved, but that …

The Daily Beast points out that early this month Kirk Cameron refused to condemn same-sex marriage in an interview with an Alabama newspaper. Kirk Cameron, the teenage heartthrob turned Christian Right entrepreneur, the man who once called homosexuality “detrimental and ultimately destructive to so many of the foundations of civilization,” has recently changed his tune. He said in an interview …

Saenz is the head of Texas Values.

“Even though no reference to ‘homosexual,’ or any of the rest of the Alphabet Soup Perversity Brigade is mentioned in the legislation, homosexual activists are still waging war against the new law. Now, they have created window stickers for businesses that state, ‘We don’t discriminate. If you’re buying, we’re selling.’ The sticker has a rainbow-colored line running through its center. …

“Can five words change the outcome of a radical measure in Houston? Locals hope so. When openly lesbian Mayor Annise Parker said, ‘This debate is about me,’ she may have been the undoing of the very ordinance she’s fighting for. Under the watchful gaze of the rest of the country, America’s fourth largest city has been locked in a vicious …

“We are asking Justice Kennedy and the U.S. Supreme Court to take the step of staying the decision of Judge McShane so that NOM can pursue its request to intervene in the case in order to mount a defense of the people’s vote for marriage. This case is an ugly spectacle of the state refusing to defend the sovereign act …

Canadian anti-gay activist Bill Whatcott, who was arrested last month with Porno Pete, says that he has filed a formal complaint against a computer repair store that Whatcott claims refused to serve him on the basis of sincerely held religious beliefs.

Jeremy Hooper writes at Good As You: The Coalition of African-American Pastors is intimately aligned with the National Organization For Marriage (CAAP head William Owens is listed as NOM’s religious liaison) and is one of the co-sponsors of NOM’s upcoming March For Marriage. Now look on as this organization helps NOM in its stated goal to “drive a wedge between …

This is the nutjob who ran for lieutenant governor of Virginia.

New York state Sen. Rubin Diaz, who is possibly the most viciously anti-gay Democrat in the nation, claims to be bringing 100 buses of Hispanic evangelicals to NOM’s hate march in Washington DC next month. Brian Brown has issued a money beg: I just recently got off the phone with my good friend, New York State Senator, Rev. Ruben Diaz, …

About the cover story in this month’s magazine from World Net Daily: Newt Gingrich called it an “open, blatant example of the new fascism,” Charles Krauthammer called it “totalitarian,” Pat Buchanan labeled it “the new blacklist” and RedState headlined it as “a fascist purge.” And it wasn’t just conservatives sounding the alarm. Leftist comedian Bill Maher called the perpetrators the …

Miranda Blue writes at Right Wing Watch: When Sen. Ted Cruz told the conservative pastors gathered at the Family Research Council’s Watchmen on the Wall conference yesterday that “the Senate Democrats are going to be voting on a constitutional amendment to repeal the First Amendment,” he was met with an audible gasp. He earned more gasps when he warned that …

He’s referring to this. Starnes followed the above with this: “They’ll coming after churches and pastors next.” And then he linked his new book.

“Are we going to be cowards because we’re afraid? Could we get our heads chopped off? We could, maybe one day. So what? Chop it off!” This happened yesterday at the Family Research Council’s Watchmen On The Walls convention.

“Sometimes you have to wonder if the apple even came from the same tree. In a snarky ad for the FFRF, an anti-Christian extremist group, Ron Reagan, younger son of the late, great President Ronald Reagan, proudly declares that he is an ‘unabashed atheist’ who is “alarmed by the intrusions of religion into our secular government.’ Mr. Reagan smugly signs …

This week’s wins in Oregon and Pennsylvania have really sent the crackpots over the edge. Hooray!

“The outlawing of Christianity is the goal, because it is God with whom these degenerates are at war, and God’s people, by proxy. Those who war against God are inspired by Satan to do his will. Satan despises and seeks to destroy all of creation, but especially the true people of God who are saved by the blood of Jesus …

“In the media’s portrayal, people defending marriage as the union of a man and woman have been getting routed ever since the Supreme Court decision last June — if not before. They point to a string of lower-court rulings striking down state marriage amendments and to public opinion polling, especially of my peers in the Millennial generation. Many also point …
