Today's Cultural Warfare Update

[solarbird]

spazzkat asked me just now while I was fiddling with the blinds in the living room if I'd been looking at "those sites" just now; I responded that I had, but that now "those sites" includes CNN.

Notable is that Focus on the Family seems to be heading harder into the political elements of sexual dominionism, now that they're feeling more confident about the Supreme Court and them and their allies are getting abortion bans passed. I've got two articles here, one from them, one that's a mixture of from them and about them, talking about how women exist to be "helpers" to men, and that equality in government and leadership is unnatural.

Here's today's news.

South Dakota law bans nearly all abortions;

Georgia attacks abortion rights, and makes it harder to get birth control;

Legislators in Tennessee issue a bill in both houses requiring notification of male before an abortion can be performed - regardless of state of marriage; violation carries $5K in fines for the doctor, $2K in fines for the woman involved;

Feministe commentary on Georgia's set of bills;

Dobson, guest Patterson: women exist to be "helpers" to husbands; any other role is against God; "Those who try to change God’s plan follow the familiar path of deception displayed by the serpent in Genesis"; this is apparently from last year, but it's timely;

Concerned Women for America "Abortion Lies v. Abortion Realities"; I would assume the "science" here is as bad as it is in Creationism;

Jerry Falwell attacks evangelical leaders saying global warming is a bad thing; calls their funding "blood-tainted";

Family Research Council cheers South Dakota abortion ban;

American Family Association pushes Dr. Kent Hovind's three-pronged attack plan against evolutionary theory;

Focus on the Family article on attempts to expand broadcast "indecency" rules to cable, and increase overall punishments for "indecent" material; includes ACTION ITEM to support the Broadcast Decency Enforcement Act (S.193/H.R. 310);

New Jersey fundamentalist group to protest transgendered teacher's rehiring;

American Family Association cranky; Episcopal Church USA may promote a gay or lesbian priest to be Bishop of the Episcopal Diocese of California;

AFA Newsbriefs: crankiness that a Presbyterian minister who provided same-sex marriages was acquitted by her church; also, publicity for Connecticut anti-contraception activists opposing a bill that would require hospitals to stock emergency contraception for rape victims;

Baptist Press bill on the South Dakota abortion ban; the bill is named "The Women's Health and Human Life Protection Act," which I find particularly galling since it carries no exemption for the health of the mother, but, well, what do you expect from these fucks;

Focus on the Family's coverage of the South Dakota abortion ban; the bill states outright that the rights of a woman and the rights of a single-cell embryo are equal; includes ACTION ITEM to thank the state's governor for signing it (Mike Rounds - R);

With anti-abortion legislation now going into law in some states, and with birth control under attack, Focus on the Family is moving even further to the fundamentalist; this story is about how parity for women in government is, and I quote, "contrary to nature, the natural family and the true desires and passions of most women";

Focus on the Family ACTION ITEM to write Wal-Mart condemning them for carrying Plan B/emergency contraception;

Article8Alliance: Marriage rights for same-sex couples is "demonic," as is repealing the sodomy law.

South Dakota law bans nearly all abortions
Legislation sets up court challenge
Monday, March 6, 2006; Posted: 2:22 p.m. EST (19:22 GMT)

http://www.cnn.com/2006/POLITICS/03/06/sd.abortionban.ap/index.html

PIERRE, South Dakota (AP) -- Gov. Mike Rounds signed legislation Monday banning nearly all abortions in South Dakota, setting up a court fight aimed at challenging the 1973 U.S. Supreme Court decision that legalized abortion.

The bill would make it a crime for doctors to perform an abortion unless the procedure was necessary to save the woman's life. It would make no exception for cases of rape or incest. [Ed. Note: Or for the health of the mother. If it's not going to kill her, that's it.]

Raising abortion risks
Bills would undercut women's rights and drive many down unsafe roads to dodge strict rules, added costs
Atlanta Journal-Constitution
Published on: 03/06/06

http://www.ajc.com/opinion/content/opinion/stories/0306edabort.html

n rapid succession last week, the Republican state Senate passed three bills aimed at making it harder for a woman to obtain an abortion in Georgia. The latest assault on women's freedoms includes a bill that mandates women to pay for and undergo an ultrasound before having an abortion, and one that safeguards pharmacists from disciplinary action if they decline to fill prescriptions for drugs that terminate a pregnancy.

A third bill permitting prosecutors to charge a defendant with two crimes in cases where a pregnant woman is killed was gussied up as a domestic violence initiative, but it's actually a vehicle to edge Georgia code to the point where as soon as sperm tangles with egg, the law sees a full human being.

To its sponsors, the most important part of the bill is found in 16-5-28, (a): "For the purposes of this Code section, the term 'unborn child' means a member of the species homo sapiens at any stage of development who is carried in the womb."

Proposed Abortion Legislation in Tennessee
Monday, February 20, 2006

Long URL elided

House Bill 3199 and its companion Senate Bill 3402 were introduced on 2/16. The text of the bill states: "it is an offense for a physician to knowingly perform an abortion on a woman who is eighteen (18) years of age or older unless the physician has received from the woman a signed statement indicating that the woman has notified the man by whom she is pregnant that she intends to have an abortion."

The bill provides exceptions if the woman signs a statement saying the pregnancy is a result of rape and has been reported to law enforcement, is unable "after diligent effort" to notify or identify the man (in which case she must file written notice with the Department of Children's Services to be placed on the department's putative father registry), and in the case of medical emergencies when the life of the woman is at risk. Penalties are a Class A misdemeanor punishable by a $5,000 fine for the physician and a $2,000 fine for the woman.

Georgia to women: Being on your mind wasn’t enough; now we’d like to be in your womb, too
Posted by Jill @ 11:28 am
3.6.2006

Georgia puts women at risk through its abortion policies. Though it doesn’t go whole-hog and ban the procedure like South Dakota, it chips away at it substantially. The Georgia senate just passed three bills which require any pregnant woman seeking an abortion to undergo an ultrasound that she is required to pay for; allow pharmacists to refuse to fill prescriptions for medications that they believe terminate a pregnancy even if their belief is totally at odds with medical fact (emergency contraception and birth control pills never terminate an established pregnancy); and criminalize the killing of an “unborn child” at any stage under the guise of an anti-domestic violence measure, but define “unborn child” as “a member of the species homo sapiens at any stage of development who is carried in the womb.”

On Dobson radio program, Patterson defends biblical stance on gender roles
by Gregory Tomlin
Baptist Press/Southwestern Baptist Theological Seminary
Online as of 6 March 2006 - no date on article, but probably from 2005;

Long URL elided

FORT WORTH, Texas (BP) — God’s plan for humanity did not began with “the tabernacle, the temple, or any other vestige of government,” Dorothy Kelley Patterson said on James Dobson’s Focus on the Family radio program May 12.

“God started with the home,” Patterson said in a recording of an address she delivered at the annual convention of Concerned Women for America.“He chose that vehicle to reveal himself to us.” For example, God is found in Scripture as “our Father” and “we are his children” and the church is found as “his bride,” she said.

Speaking from Genesis 2, Patterson said the account of creation illustrates clearly defined roles for men and women. The first responsibility for man in the account, she said, was to tend the garden God had created. “It is important for a man to provide for his family,” she said. The man was also charged with guarding the garden. He was to protect it and the remainder of creation as husband’s today should protect their wives and families.

But the greatest responsibility given to man was that of spiritual leadership. In the same way, she said, “my husband is to be the leader of my home.” There is a “spiritual hierarchy,” but one in which the husband is a servant leader. There is no “oppressive tyranny” in a biblical marriage, she said.

That does not mean that things in the home always run smoothly, Patterson said. Feelings are hurt on occasion, but she said that should not be the focus of the relationship. “God’s plan is not dependent on perfect people or perfect circumstances because it is a perfect plan,” she said.

Women are given a different role than men in society, Patterson said. That role has “nothing to do with gifts or intelligence.” She is to be a “helper” to her husband, she said, even though she is created equal to him.

“We are equal before God … but from Genesis in creation it is clear that we have different roles. Now, you can go around moping and pouting about that; you can take the road of the feminists and rename yourself; you can rename the world and take over that; you can rename God -- and that’s just what the feminists do -- but it won’t change God’s plan.”

Those who try to change God’s plan follow the familiar path of deception displayed by the serpent in Genesis, she said. They assume that their plan is better and they contradict God. Still, the plan for the home remains the same as it was in the Bible, she added.

Dobson said he chose Patterson’s address for the broadcast because she well articulated the same principles he has been advocating his entire career. He said his goal in life has been to combat the “radical feminist distortions” about marriage, the family, and the role of women in society. While the radical feminist movement no longer exists, he said, the ideas it promoted so permeated American society that the have influenced modern Christian culture.

Abortion Lies v. Abortion Realities

Counterbalancing information on abortion and its negative impact on women's health

http://www.cwfa.org/articles/10260/BLI/nation/index.htm

At the 50th session of the U.N.'s Commission on the Status of Women, members of the Pro-life, Pro-family Coalition for Non-Government Organizations are distributing vital information about abortion -- information that flies in the face of the conventional leftist wisdom. More importantly, it is information that could mean the difference between life and death for women around the world who hear nothing except positive portrayals of abortion by "women's rights" advocates. In fact, women around the world hear a constant refrain that abortion is essential to "empowering" women and creating "gender equality."

The counterbalancing information about abortion and its negative impact on women's health and well-being from pro-life and pro-family advocates is carefully, meticulously documented. It often comes from the liberal organizations that promote their agenda though headlines that contradict their own research and facts.

Here are some little-known facts about abortion that directly impact women's health and well-being.

A blood-tainted gift to evangelicals

http://worldnetdaily.com/news/article.asp?ARTICLE_ID=49101

Two weeks ago in this column, I denounced an effort by a group of evangelicals who are calling on Congress to enact legislation that would cut back carbon dioxide emissions to address the alleged effects of "global warming."

I stated that the group of 86 evangelical leaders – part of the Evangelical Climate Initiative, or ECI – acted prematurely and needs to understand that costly efforts to curb greenhouse gas emissions could devastate the American economy and would only nominally reduce global temperatures. Further, many scientists are not convinced that the planet is warming beyond normal cyclical patterns.

Now, several days after the ECI released its statement, we have learned that the group has accepted funds from a foundation that routinely supports abortion rights. The ECI used funds originating from the Hewlett Foundation in its advertising campaign to halt "global warming."

I have learned that the Hewlett Foundation – which routinely funds the Planned Parenthood Federation of America, the nation's chief abortion provider, the United Nations Population Fund and other abortion-rights organizations – designated a $475,000 grant to the ECI coalition.

FRC Applauds South Dakota Law Protecting Women and the Unborn
March 6, 2006 - Monday
FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE: March 6, 2006
CONTACT: J.P. Duffy, (202) 393-2100

"The South Dakota legislature sent a bold statement to the rest of the nation that the day of judicial intimidation is over," says FRC's Tony Perkins.

http://www.frc.org/get.cfm?i=PR06C02

Washington, D.C. - Today, South Dakota Governor Mike Rounds signed into law the Women's Health and Human Life Protection Act, which bans abortion except to save a woman's life. Family Research Council (FRC) President Tony Perkins released the following statement:

"This is how our system of government should work. The elected representatives of the people set policy that is reflective of the people they represent. For far too long, elected leaders have based their policy decisions upon how a judge or judges might react to the enacted policy. The South Dakota legislature sent a bold statement to the rest of the nation that the day of judicial intimidation is over; human life will be protected in South Dakota.

"The passage of this law is a reflection of growing pro-life sentiment across the country and points toward a post-Roe era. Technology and information about embryonic and prenatal development have steadily overcome the myths and lies about abortion and the millions of babies whose lives have been destroyed by it. Give the people or their elected representatives a voice and you will find that most of America wants major changes in the abortion-on-demand regime that has stood only by judicial fiat for 33 years."

'Dr. Dino' Offers Strategy for Addressing Darwinian Inaccuracies
By Jim Brown
American Family Association/Agape Press
March 6, 2006

http://headlines.agapepress.org/archive/3/afa/62006f.asp

(AgapePress) - A Christian evangelist known as "Dr. Dino" advocates a three-pronged approach to countering public school textbooks that use faulty evidence for Darwinian evolution.

Dr. Kent Hovind says instead of trying to get intelligent design or creationism taught in public schools, the main objective of critics of evolution should be requiring accuracy in science textbooks. Hovind, the founder of Florida-based Creation Science Evangelism, notes many states already have laws requiring textbooks to be accurate -- and if they do not, he says, teachers should have the right to correct any inaccuracies in those books.

"Jesus lived in the Roman Empire and did not spend any time trying to change the Roman Empire. He just changed people, one at a time," Hovind points out. "And I think the grassroots approach of changing people is bulletproof -- I mean, there's nothing you can do to stop that."

He continues, saying the "second level of attack" would involve changing teachers. "Get the teachers converted or at least knowledgeable on the topic, where they know what the truth is," he suggests. "Then it doesn't matter what the textbook says, because the teacher's not going to teach it anyway -- or the teacher's going to teach it and expose the error."

Hovind says a third and more difficult plan of attack would be to change existing textbook requirements at the state level. But in that aspect, he laments, Darwinists are beating Christians to the punch.

Senator Sam Brownback wants to narrow the Broadcast Decency Enforcement Act to improve its chance of passage. The House has already approved increasing fines on broadcasters to $500,000 for indecency violations but Senator Ted Stevens has worked to add language that changes the definition of indecency to include obscene and profane speech and includes cable channels to the list of programmers that the FCC can penalize. While pro family groups generally like the additions John Rankin, a Spokesman for Senator Sam Brownback, says they could hinder passage.

NJ Parents Urged to Protest Rehiring of Transsexual Teacher
By Jim Brown
American Family Association/Agape Press
March 6, 2006

http://headlines.agapepress.org/archive/3/afa/62006g.asp

AgapePress) - A New Jersey pro-family group is expressing outrage over a school board's decision to allow a 71-year-old teacher to return to the classroom after having a sex-change operation.

The Eagleswood School District has decided to permit the transsexual teacher to continue working at the local elementary school, despite protests from parents who wanted the teacher fired or their children taught by someone else. According to Associated Press, the male teacher was married for 33 years and had three children, had "gender reassignment" surgery last year and reapplied for his job under a female name.

Len Deo, who heads the New Jersey Family Policy Council, says the school board is ignoring the best interests of children, and instead is opting for political correctness.

[...]

Deo believes the school board's approval of the transsexual teacher is a by-product of the growing push to normalize same-sex "marriage" and other immoral behavior.

Will Another Episcopal Diocese Choose a Homosexual Bishop?
By Jim Brown
American Family Association/Agape Press
March 6, 2006

http://headlines.agapepress.org/archive/3/afa/62006c.asp

(AgapePress) - A conservative Anglican leader says if one of the two openly homosexual priests who are candidates to become bishop of the Episcopal Diocese of California is elected, the fallout could rival that of the controversy over the denomination's 2003 ordination of homosexual Bishop Vicki Gene Robinson.

Bonnie Perry of Chicago and Robert Taylor of Seattle -- both of whom have longtime same-sex partners -- are among the five nominees for the position of Episcopal bishop of California. Others candidates for the post are Eugene Sutton of Washington, DC; Jane Gould of Massachusetts; and the Diocese of Alabama's Mark Andrus. The Episcopal Diocese of California stretches from Marin County south to the town of Los Altos, and includes approximately 27,000 church members.

Following Bishop Robinson's ordination, an emergency panel of the global Anglican Communion -- convened in 2004 -- called for a moratorium on installing bishops in same-sex relationships. But apparently the issue of diversity took precedence in selecting candidates for the California position. A spokesman for the Episcopal Diocese of California told the San Jose Mercury News that the search committee did not intend to provoke a political debate, but merely picked candidates who resembled the region itself: men and women from the country, white and black, homosexual and heterosexual.

Canon David Anderson, president and CEO of the American Anglican Council, says the nominations are no shock to conservatives.

...A regional judicial panel of the Presbyterian Church (USA) has ruled that Rev. Jane Spahr was "acting within her right of conscience in performing marriage ceremonies for same-sex couples." Spahr presided at weddings for lesbian couples in 2004 and 2005, although the marriages were not recognized by her denomination or the state of California. The church panel ruled 6-1 that the section of the Presbyterian Church's constitution that reserves marriage for a man and a woman "is a definition, not a directive." The 63-year-old Spahr, who could have faced removal from ministry, rejoiced at her acquittal. [AP]

...Pro-life activists have gathered in Connecticut to oppose a bill that would require Catholic hospitals to provide emergency contraception to rape victims. The state legislature's Public Health Committee is to have a hearing today on the bill. It would require all hospitals, including Connecticut's four Catholic hospitals, to provide the so-called "morning-after pill" to women who are victims of rape or incest. Connecticut Right to Life held a rally against the bill yesterday at Saint Mary's Hospital in Waterbury, one of the institutions that would be affected. Connecticut Right to Life President Bill O'Brien says the bill would violate religious freedom. [AP]

S.D. governor signs historic abortion ban; supporters hope to see Roe overturned
Mar 6, 2006
By Michael Foust
Baptist Press

http://www.sbcbaptistpress.org/bpnews.asp?ID=22782

PIERRE, S.D. (BP)--In an action that supporters hope will result in the overturning of the U.S. Supreme Court's infamous Roe v. Wade decision, South Dakota Gov. Mike Rounds March 6 signed a bill into law that bans nearly all abortions in the state.

Rounds' signature was historic, marking the first time since the 1973 Roe ruling that a state has adopted such a wide-sweeping ban on abortion. The law would take effect July 1 if not overturned and bans all abortions except in cases to save the mother's life.

[...]

"In the history of the world, the true test of a civilization is how well people treat the most vulnerable and most helpless in their society," Rounds, a Republican, said in a statement. "The sponsors and supporters of this bill believe that abortion is wrong because unborn children are the most vulnerable and most helpless persons in our society. I agree with them."

[...]

The new law -- named the Women's Health and Human Life Protection Act -- states that "life begins at the time of conception" and that an unborn child "is totally unique immediately at fertilization." The fact that life begins at conception is a "conclusion confirmed by scientific advances since the 1973 decision of Roe v. Wade," the law states. It further asserts that abortion must be banned in order "to fully protect the rights, interests, and health of the pregnant mother, the rights, interest, and life of her unborn child, and the mother's fundamental natural intrinsic right to a relationship with her child."

South Dakota Gov. Mike Rounds signed into law today a bill
that outlaws nearly all abortions in the state. Planned
Parenthood has already announced plans to challenge its
constitutionality.

The law states that "life begins at the time of
conception, a conclusion confirmed by scientific advances
since the 1973 decision of Roe v. Wade, including the fact
that each human being is totally unique immediately at
fertilization."

It also guarantees the rights of the mother and the unborn
child and states the only way to fully protect both is to
prohibit abortion.

"Guarantee of due process of law under the Constitution of
South Dakota applies equally to born and unborn human
beings," the law reads, "and . . . under the Constitution
of South Dakota, a pregnant mother and her unborn child,
each possess a natural and inalienable right to life."

[...]

TAKE ACTION: No matter what state you live in, please take
a moment to thank South Dakota Gov. Mike Rounds for

The United States is just one nation concerned about this
week's United Nations Commission on the Status of Women
and how it will seek to achieve its goals of enhancing the
participation of women in government.

Of chief concern are quotas some countries have adopted
for women in government, which Focus on the Family United
Nations representative Thomas Jacobson called a misguided,
unsustainable and harmful policy.

"No nation has been able to achieve parity of women in
leadership and the workforce without government mandates,"
he said, "because such a policy is contrary to nature, the
natural family and the true desires and passions of most
women."

Wal-Mart Announces Plans to Carry Plan B
Focus on the Family
Newsbriefs
March 6, 2006

[Received in email; no URL]

Wal-Mart Stores Inc. will carry emergency contraception in
all of its pharmacies beginning March 20, a decision that
has pro-family advocates crying foul.

Plan B -- also known as the morning-after pill --
introduces a hormone into a woman's body that blocks
ovulation and may prevent a fertilized egg from
implantation in the uterine wall. Pro-life advocates point
out that preventing an embryo from implanting is an early
abortion.

Currently, Wal-Mart is required to sell Plan B in just two
states -- Illinois and Massachusetts. But Ron Chomiuk,
vice president of pharmacy for the retail giant, said by
expanding the sales of the drug to all 50 states, the
company is doing what is best for business.

"We expect more states to require us to sell emergency
contraceptives in the months ahead," he said. "Because of
this, and the fact that this is an FDA-approved product,
we feel it is difficult to justify being the country's
only major pharmacy chain not selling it."

Douglas Scott, president of Life Decisions International,
said the decision by Wal-Mart to sell the drug shows the
company is willing to turn its back on the American
family.

"It is up to the pro-family movement to let Wal-Mart know
that the decision is not in its best interest from either
a moral or business perspective," he said. "No company
that chooses to sell such a controversial and deadly
substance should be given a free ride."

TAKE ACTION: To let Wal-Mart know what you think of its
decision to stock the morning-after pill, visit the retail
giant's Web site.

Fr. Bob Carr: Demonic Confusion in Massachusetts

Long URL elided

The world is truly turned upside down here in Massachusetts. The force behind this is clear. The devil is skilled at sowing moral confusion. Fr. Bob Carr preached on this last Sunday at his parish in Somerville: "The Manifestation of the Demonic in Massachusetts." (See the whole homily online at Catholic.org.)

Excerpts from Fr. Carr's homily on Jesus's temptation in the desert [see Mark 1:9-13; Matthew 4:1-11]:

[O]ne of the signs of the Demonic is moral ambiguity. The light of reason turns dark and there is a loss of a sense of right and wrong. I also pointed out that this reality describes well the current state of affairs in Massachusetts.

The Devil takes reason and twists it into confusion. If you have no wisdom to guide your reason, you will end up seriously confused. I was talking to a parishioner in the Archdiocese and she said to me, Look around you. "Male is female and female is male a complete distortion of creation." Right is wrong and wrong is right. Black is white and white is black. Do not think for one minute you are not dealing with manifestations of the Demonic.
