By SB200, A Colorado Judge Can Censor the Bible - Christian Opposition Press Conference Today July 1, DTC Marriott

July 1, 2008 9:30 AM EDT

The following was released today by American Right to Life:

Colorado Governor Bill Ritter has signed an anti-Christian censorship law SB 200, that leaders representing many organizations will announce plans to oppose at a press conference today, July 1 at 10:15 a.m. in the Primrose Room at the Denver Tech Center Marriott, 4900 S. Syracuse.

Colorado State Rep. Kevin Lundberg confirms the fear of many Christians that, "Section 8 of Senate Bill 200 is a wide open door for any judge to censor anything that condemns homosexuality, including Scripture." The title of Section 8 reads: "Publishing of discriminative matter forbidden."

"I do believe that the Bible is banned, under the plain language of this new statute," said Steve Crampton, general counsel of Liberty Counsel, a national pro-family litigation organization.

A panel available to the media at today's 10:15 a.m. press conference consists of:

    --  Mathew Staver, founder & chairman, Liberty Counsel
    --  Steve Curtis, president, American RTL Action and former chairman of the
        Colorado GOP
    --  Janet Folger, nationally syndicated talk show host
    --  Kevin Swanson, Christian Home Educators of Colorado & Generations
        Radio
    --  Mark Hotaling, Christian Family Alliance & Colorado for Family
        Values
    --  Colorado State Representative Kevin Lundberg

Section 8 of the new law reads: "Publishing of discriminative matter forbidden. No person, being the owner... agent, or employee of any place of public accommodation... shall publish... distribute, give away... except as provided in this section, any communication... book, pamphlet, writing... or advertisement of any kind... intended or calculated to discriminate... against... SEXUAL ORIENTATION, marital status... [which] is unwelcome..."

"American RTL Action is a political 527 group headquartered a half-block from the Colorado capitol, and we're not going to hire someone cohabitating outside of marriage..." said Steve Curtis, the group's president. "We will also violate SB200's prohibition on publishing certain biblical teachings on homosexuality cohabitation."

The media is invited to this press conference to be held in the Primrose Room DTC Marriott at 4900 S. Syracuse St. at 10:15 a.m. today, July 1, 2008. (This press conference is not an official function of, but is being held concurrently with, the Colorado Renewal Project pastor's policy briefing whose speakers include former Governor Mike Huckabee.)

This email was really an eye opener and I feel it is very important to get out to the public.
FIRST. do you know what ANWR is?

ANWR = Arctic National Wildlife Refuge.

 

Now.  A comparison:

And some perspective.

 

  

NOTE WHERE THE PROPOSED DEVELOPMENT AREA IS.
(it's in the "ANWR Coastal Plain")

 

   THIS IS WHAT THE DEMOCRATS, LIBERALS AND "GREENS" SHOW YOU WHEN THEY TALK ABOUT ANWR and they are right. these ARE photographs of ANWR
 

 

ISN'T ANWR BEAUTIFUL?  WHY SHOULD WE DRILL HERE (AND DESTROY) THIS BEAUTIFUL PLACE?
 

 WELL. THAT'S NOT EXACTLY THE TRUTH

 

 

 Do you remember the map?

 

 The map showed that the proposed drilling area is in the ANWR Coastal Plain.

 

 Do those photographs look like a coastal plain to you?

 

 

 WHAT'S GOING ON HERE?

 

THE ANSWER IS SIMPLE.

 

 THAT IS NOTWHERE THEY ARE WANTING TO DRILL!

 

 THIS IS WHAT THE PROPOSED EXPLORATION AREA ACTUALLY LOOKS LIKE IN THE WINTER

 

 AND THIS IS WHAT ITACTUALLY LOOKS LIKE IN THE SUMMER

 

HERE ARE A COUPLE SCREEN SHOTS FROM GOOGLE EARTH

 

 

 

 

 

AS YOU CAN SEE, THE AREA WHERE THEY ARE TALKING ABOUT DRILLING IS A BARREN WASTELAND.

 

 

 

 OH. AND THEY SAY THAT THEY ARE CONCERNED ABOUT THE EFFECT ON THE LOCAL WILDLIFE.

 

 HERE IS A PHOTO (SHOT DURING THE SUMMER) OF THE
"DEPLETED WILDLIFE" SITUATION CREATED BY DRILLING AROUND PRUDHOE BAY *.
DON'T YOU THINK THAT THE CARIBOU REALLY HATE THAT DRILLING?

 

 

 

HERE'S THAT SAME SPOT DURING THE WINTER.

 

 HEY, THIS BEAR SEEMS TO REALLY HATE THE PIPELINE NEAR PRUDHOE BAY *.

*The Prudhoe bay area accounts for 17% of U.S. domestic oil production

 

 

 

 NOW, WHY DO YOU THINK THAT THE DEMOCRATS ARE LYING ABOUT ANWR?

 

 REMEMBER WHEN AL GORE SAID THAT
THE GOVERNMENT SHOULD WORK TO ARTIFICIALLY  RAISE GAS PRICES
TO $5.00 A GALLON?

 

 WELL, AL GORE AND HIS FELLOW DEMOCRATS HAVE ALMOST REACHED THEIR GOAL!

 

 NOW THAT YOU KNOW THAT THE DEMOCRATS HAVE BEEN LYING,
WHAT ARE YOU GOING TO DO ABOUT IT?

 

 

 YOU CAN START BY FORWARDING THIS TO EVERYONE YOU KNOW.
SO THAT THEY WILL KNOW THE TRUTH.
