Another Bible-based Good News Club has been banned from a school campus, this time in Minnesota.

California outlaws "bride" and "groom"
Drew McKissick - September 9, 2008 - 12:42pmWell, you may have wondered how long this was going to take. First, a one vote majority of the California Supreme Court (4-3) votes to legalize gay marriage in that state, and now the state begins to issue politically correct marriage licenses that not only make no reference to gender, but refuse to allow recognition of either "party" as "bride" or "groom".

In God They Trusted
Mick McCormack - August 26, 2008 - 12:44pmThere is a movement today that seeks to have "In God We Trust" taken off of our American currency. Those heading the move say that putting God on our money violates the separation of church and state championed by Thomas Jefferson. This movement says that the founders of our country were not really Christians or godly men. They often use Thomas Jefferson as an example. However, there was not a single member of the Continental Congress that did not acknowledge Jesus Christ as God and God as their protector. The Congress even funded the printing of 20,000 copies of the Bible after King George began an embargo against Bibles being imported into the American Colonies. George Washington wrote a letter of gratitude to the printer for the effort. read more »

Gary Gore - July 24, 2008 - 2:06pmA school district in Hudson, New Hampshire is under the threat of a federal lawsuit for refusing to allow the distribution of a church's Vacation Bible School flyer to one of the schools in the district.

McCain and Obama Urged to Make International Religious Freedom a Priority
Gary Gore - July 18, 2008 - 11:44amFrom CyberCast News Service, we find this report that tells us about the ongoing work to ensure the next president of the United States maintains a focus on broadening religious freedoms for Christians throughout the world.
Angela C. Wu, International Law Director for the Becket Fund for Religious Liberty, states that,
“Freedom of religion and the freedom to speak openly about ideas and beliefs here and abroad should be a high priority for the next president of the United States."
A poll that was cited should be quite telling to either of the two main presidential candidates as to the importance of this issue to the voting public. read more »
Virginia Christian Group Denied Their Right to Display Cross
Gary Gore - July 9, 2008 - 12:12pmFrom Chesapeake, Virginia we have this story from OneNewsNow, detailing the facts regarding this denial of religious freedom and our rights to free speech.
Take note of those quotes attributed to the city officials about the cross; that it is "offensive", "way out there", and "blatantly Christian"? How do Christians even try get an understanding of that mentality to debate this mindset? read more »
ACLU Trying to Silence Prayers at Annapolis
Gary Gore - July 7, 2008 - 3:02pmThe American Civil Liberties Union is at it again. In what amounts to nothing less than the restriction of free speech, the ultra-liberal organization is trying to end the Naval Academy practice of cadets engaging in a pre-lunch - completely voluntary - prayer at noon.
In think it's pretty disingenuous that - according to the story in OneNewsNow - the ACLU cites social pressure for those who may not wish to participate, as the reason to ask for the practice to end. read more »
