Midnightmom Posted May 5, 2009 Share Posted May 5, 2009 I am posting this here for maximum exposure (and because I couldn't decide which of the other forums would be appropriate). Patricia, We are delivering your petition opposing the anti-faith hate crimes bill. Please forward this important update to your friends with a note from you asking them to sign. Mathew Staver, Founder and Chairman, Liberty Counsel ============================================ Our contacts on Capitol Hill tell us we are moving very quickly toward a major showdown in the Senate on the Hate Crimes Prevention Act - a bill that could silence pastors and churches. The Senate vote on hate crimes could be the most important vote of the entire year... which may be why the Senate leadership is being very secretive about when the vote will take place. As a result, I have directed my staff to prepare a major petition delivery to the Senate leadership within the next 14 days to show strong grassroots opposition to the bill. Already, 38,690 citizens have signed Liberty Counsel's petition opposing the faith-censoring hate crimes legislation. Please go here now to be included in our upcoming petition delivery in advance of the final Senate showdown: http://www.libertyaction.org/r.asp?u=18785&PID=17740052 + + Our legal analysis of the hate crimes bill Our legal staff has concluded that both the House and the Senate versions of the so-called hate crimes legislation would give "actual or perceived" "sexual orientation" and "gender identity" the same federal legal protection as race. Incredibly, as bizarre as it may sound, this bill includes more than 30 deviant sexual behaviors, including pedophilia! In addition, this outrageous bill threatens the rights of Christians while giving protected legal status to sexual perversions! + + President Obama supports this anti-faith bill President Obama has already pledged his support for this bill, which means our LAST AND ONLY HOPE to stop the bill is in the Senate. That's why we are getting ready to deliver petitions... And that's why I'm asking you to sign so I can represent your voice before the leaders of the Senate. Go here to sign: http://www.libertyaction.org/r.asp?u=18785&PID=17740052 Thank you so much for standing with Liberty Counsel, and for your prayers on behalf of our Nation. May God bless you.
