Articles: No Newt Is Good Newt.

Here is a good column by Pastor Bob Emrich exposing the false ideas of new advertisements running on Maine television.

Good quote:

Those who want to redefine marriage want us to believe that we show love and support for homosexual family members by encouraging them to remain in their sin. Christian people will remember than true love and support helps people overcome, not surrender. The implication that those who vote to protect natural marriage are somehow lacking in love is reprehensible.

I found this article helpful to learn more about Governor Rick Perry.

His friendship with and his family’s support for Marcus Lutrell, who was the lone survivor of Seal Team 10 in Afghanistan, is especially interesting.

Also, apparently Perry likes riding motorcycles a lot.  I wonder what the Secret Service will say about that?

The losing Democrat in the recent special election complains about those who supported the winning conservative candidate. I am amused that Mr. Pearson brags “We didn’t bring in any outside organization.” Well of course he wouldn’t bring in the  liberal outside organizations into District 24; that move would have alerted more of the conservative voters there about the radical policies that he and other Democrats endorse! He would have lost by an even larger margin.  Good work by the CCL and local conservatives.

For the common good of our neighbors, our state, and our nation, we in Maine need to be wholehearted in supporting real marriage and opposing the approval of homosexuality. We also should seek to remove the approval of homosexuals openly serving in our military.  Senators Snowe and Collins have harmed our nation by supporting the gay rights agenda.

This sobering article outlines the documented problems commonly experienced by those in homosexual relationships. This provides important information that supports traditional marriage and God’s design for human sexuality. Here is an excerpt:

“There are numerous well-designed large studies which have found that persons with SSA are far more likely that married men and women to suffer from:
· Psychological disorders
