Clip recap: The Anglican Church has applauded Parliament for standing firm and passing the contentious the Anti-Homosexuality Bill. While giving a Christmas sermon at St. Paul’s Cathedral Namirembe, Bishop Wilberforce Kityo Luwalira said Parliament should continue to protect the country’s conservative customs. He also asked Parliament to pass a law, which outlaws abortion. As Agness Nandutu reports, other pentecostal churches …

This came in late last night: U.S. DEPARTMENT OF STATE Office of the Spokesperson Statement by Jen PSAKI, SPOKESPERSON U.S. Concern with Ugandan Anti-Homosexuality Legislation We are deeply concerned by the Ugandan Parliament’s passage of anti-homosexuality legislation. As Americans, we believe that people everywhere deserve to live in freedom and equality – and that no one should face violence or …

“Our embrace of people like Tammy Bruce and Camille Paglia (as brilliant as the latter may be to quote on feminist issues) is the ‘synthesis’ phase of the Hegelian dialectic and poisonous to our theology and agenda. The rise of ‘conservative’ homosexuals is a ruse to sucker us into endorsing ‘gay rights’ in a slightly different form. Think about it …

“I have been courted by various people and government officials to do business in Uganda. I was seriously considering it. However, the dreadful witch hunt against the gay community and lifetime sentences means it would be against my conscience to support this country. I would urge other companies worldwide to follow suit. Uganda must reconsider or find it being ostracised …

From the official website of the Ugandan Parliament: The Anti-Homosexuality Bill, 2009 seeks to establish a comprehensive consolidated legislation to protect the traditional family by prohibiting any form of sexual relations between persons of the same sex; and the promotion or recognition of such sexual relations in public institutions and other places through or with the support of any government …

It would be interesting, actually, to find out if Phil Robertson wants American gays rounded up and sent to prison for life as Bryan Fischer does.

“Representatives of the Ugandan government have launched a shameful sneak attack on their own people.  If this bill becomes law, countless LGBT Ugandans will be condemned to violence or prison. The United States government has a moral obligation to use every tool at its disposal to put a stop to this legislation. Perhaps most disgusting is the fact that American …

The BBC reports: Uganda’s parliament has passed a bill to toughen the punishment for homosexual acts to include life imprisonment in some cases. The anti-homosexuality bill also makes it a crime punishable by a prison sentence not to report gay people. The prime minister opposed the vote, saying not enough MPs were present. The bill has been condemned by world …

Earlier this year we learned that Scott Lively, who is arguably the most evil of all the American anti-gay crackpots, was planning to run for governor of Massachusetts.  Yesterday MassLive reported that Lively’s campaign has been launched. His campaign motto is “Qualified. Experienced. Electable.” Publicly available campaign finance records show he has about $3,000 in his coffers, including a $2,000 …

On Friday, Scott Lively filed a demand that his trial for crimes against humanity be suspended while he pursues a dismissal with the First Circuit Court of Appeals. Lively’s first motion to dismiss was rejected by the U.S District Court in August. And today the district court again told Lively to go fuck himself. (Via Equality Case Files)

Scott Lively has filed a demand that his trial for crimes against humanity be suspended while he pursues a dismissal with the First Circuit Court of Appeals. Lively’s first motion to dismiss was rejected by the district court in August. From today’s notice to the lower court: This Court cannot be the first tribunal, worldwide, to recognize a claim for …

“It is shocking that a United States Senator would bow to pressure from these militants and refuse to facilitate the discussion of vital issues affecting children, family, life, and the economy. Groups like HRC have set themselves up as arbiters of what may or may not be discussed at public forums. Instead of meeting us in the marketplace of ideas, …

So says the guy who wants you executed. UPDATE: He’s on cray-cray roll!

Excellent news from the EU. The BBC has the story: The EU’s top court has ruled that homosexuals from Sierra Leone, Uganda and Senegal who fear imprisonment in their home country have grounds for asylum in EU member states. The Netherlands had asked the court for advice about three gay citizens of those countries seeking asylum. The European Court of …

“After long contemplation and prayer I am convinced that I should run for Governor of Massachusetts. I will run as an independent. The people of this state need a candidate who can clearly and unapologetically articulate Biblical values without fear or compromise. They need a candidate who will tell the simple truth that abortion is murder, and homosexuality is condemned …

“First, pray for God to guide Judge Ponsor as he makes future decisions in this case.  Pray for him to be fair and objective, and not swayed by liberal ideology or the lies of my persecutors. Next pray that the Marxist activists that have conspired to bring this bogus litigation forward are thwarted. Pray especially for Holly Richardson of both …
