            <description>&quot;A Renewed Call to Truth, Prudence, and Protection of the Poor  
An Evangelical Examination of the Theology, Science, and Economics of Global Warming 
 
The world is in the grip of an idea: that burning fossil fuels to provide affordable, abundant energy is causing global warming that will be so dangerous that we must stop it by reducing our use of fossil fuels, no matter the cost.  
 
Is that idea true?&quot;

            <description>Roxana Saberi is an American journalist with dual Iranian-American citizenship who has been imprisoned in Iran since late January. On April 18, based on a closed, one day trial, Ms. Saberi was sentenced to eight years in prison for charges of spying for the United States, a charge the White House vigorously denies as &quot;baseless.&quot; Ms. Saberi is now on a hunger strike until her release. Please urge the Iranian government to release Roxana Saberi immediately - sign the petition today. - http://www.thepetitionsite.com/takeaction/505401348</description>

            <title>&quot;We the People&quot; stand together for marriage equality and religious freedom</title>
            <description>&quot;We the People&quot; stand together for marriage equality and religious freedom 
 
Some amazing volunteers put together this video for us.  Unlike some other ads out there (NOM NOM NOM), individuals appearing in this video are real people, including a carpenter, lawyer, priest, and a soldier discharged under the military&#039;s &quot;Don&#039;t Ask Don&#039;t Tell&quot; policy.  
 
         
 
Speaking of NOM...they are out today with  their latest ad , playing the victim and trying to claim that they lose their rights when gay people want to get married. 
 
As &quot;We the People&quot; explains, marriage equality and religious freedom are not in conflict. The constitution provides for a separation between church and state, meaning that no religious organization can be forced to perform or acknowledge same-sex marriage if they choose not to. 
 
They are sowing fear and distorting the facts in an attempt to try and hold on to an  increasingly smaller share of the American public . 
 
NOM is putting Miss California up as their  spokeswoman  victim.  They probably correctly assume that she is a better mouthpiece than their most prominent board member, best-selling fiction writer Orson Scott Card.   PFAW :</description>

            <title>Standing Up For The Constitution</title>
            <description>On May 5th 2008 the Los Alamitos City Council put on their agenda an item that seemed innocent enough. It was a decision to add a plaque with  In God We Trust  to the walls of the City Council. This is part of an effort led by Christian fundamentalist Bakersfield Councilwoman Sullivan from her non-profit, In God We Trust - America. A number of cities in the State of California have fallen to this attempt to de-secularize city government, a few have stood up for secular government and said &quot;No.&quot; 
 
I decided to stop it in Los Alamitos. 
 
Alone. 
 
Something silly to do with the state being secular. You know, that kind of silly stuff pushed by those old fogies Madison and Jefferson way back in the 1770&#039;s. 
 
Below the fold are the speeches I have given in the Council Chamber (and the reactions from the Los Alamitos City Council if there was any).</description>

            <title>Focus on the Family: Hate Crimes are Funny</title>
            <description>In the middle of the night on August 27, 1955, Emmett Till--a 15 year-old black boy--was kidnapped from his uncle&#039;s house in Mississippi by two white brothers. They dragged him into the woods, beat him until he was unrecognizable, shot him, tied a fan around his neck to weigh him down, and tossed him into the Tallahatchie River. 
 
On September 22, 2000, a man charged into a gay bar in Roanoke, VA and opened fire because he wanted to &quot;waste some faggots.&quot; Danny Overstreet was killed, and six others were injured. 
 
In a new  video , Focus on the Family equates being brutally murdered for being gay with getting your order screwed up in the drive through. They equate Emmett Till&#039;s savage death with being cut off while driving on the freeway. 
 
These are the people who purport to speak for Christians in America. These are the family values that they espouse. This is the group that is pulling George W. Bush&#039;s puppet strings.</description>
