+ POORLY AMENDED EMBRYONIC STEM CELL RESEARCH BILL to be debated on Senate floor on Tuesday, March 7. SB144-which would provide $25 million per year for embryonic stem cell research ahs been amended and now it is even less acceptable because it allows human cloning by permitting “products” or “material” not used prior to be used for other research.  This would include cloning, though denied by the sponsors.  You can listen to the debate by logging on to mlis.state.md.us  (no www.) and click on House and Senate Proceedings ( Listen ) then click on Current Proceedings.  You may even hear your Senator voice their feelings on this bill.

The amended version of the House bill, HB1 is ready for a final vote at anytime.

One Week till Justice Sunday II- 08/08/05

On August 14th, Tony Perkins will be at Two Rivers Baptist Churchin Nashville, Tennessee for "Justice Sunday II - God Save the United States and this Honorable Court!" He will be joined on stage by Dr. James Dobson (by video), Chuck Colson, Phyllis Schlafly, Bill Donohue, Ted Haggard, Bishop Harry Jackson, Cathy Cleaver Ruse, House Majority Leader Tom DeLay (R-TX), and Senator Zell Miller (D-GA). Activist judges have been redefining our culture - legislating from the bench armed with a social agenda while ignoring the Constitution. And it was the Supreme Court and activist judges that made a decision to condemn millions of unborn children to death and now threaten the very definition of marriage. Justice Sunday II will be hosted by the gracious Dr. Jerry Sutton of Two Rivers Baptist Church and will be broadcast live in churches across the nation - via Sky Angel satellite - in addition to being carried on hundreds of radio and Christian TV stations, and via live webcast at www.justicesunday.com.

Today's homosexual activists are seeking not to fulfill, but to overturn, the principles of family that were enshrined in nature from the beginning of the human race. click here for more...
