Alabama State Representative Revisits Nazi Tactics in Heartland America.
Meet His SacrificeWould Jesus go to through all the suffering of the cross If God's promises were a lie? Do .....
In an unbelievable move, Alabama Rep. Gerald Allen, a
Republican, introduced a bill that would prohibit the use of
public funds for "the purchase of textbooks or library materials
that recognize or promote homosexuality as an acceptable
lifestyle." With total disregard of The First Amendment of our
Bill of Rights, one can clearly see the Falwellian nature of his
actions.
One has to assume that Allen didn't get elected because he's
ignorant and bigoted, yet his own words raise that possibility.
Allen said that if his bill passes, novels with gay protagonists
and college textbooks that suggest homosexuality is natural
would have to be removed from library shelves and destroyed. "I
guess we dig a big hole and dump them in and bury them," he
said.
Now why would Allen single out one group and show enthusiasm in
a book burying? Is that leadership? Perhaps it's grandstanding,
and not leadership. It's clear that Allen wishes only to make a
name for himself and draw on the conservative Christian movement
as his vehicle. He might as well have chosen to introduce a bill
burning and burying all the bibles. After all, the only purpose
of the bill is to further divide this great country.
Growing In The Knowledge Of GodThis first verse completely sets the stage for you to be able to receive knowledge from the Lord. This first verse is literally telling us ..... Ken Baker, a board member of Equality Alabama, a gay rights
organization, said Allen was "attempting to become the George
Wallace of homosexuality. Mark Potuk, a spokesman for the
Montgomery-based Southern Poverty Law Center called the bill
censorship. "It sounds like Nazi book burning to me," he said.
As the principles this great country were built upon continue to
disappear, so will the rights and freedoms that they provided.
The principle of separation of state and church has all but
disappeared. What will self-serving politicians take from us
next? Maybe they'll want to ban books on black history, or
restrict your use of the Internet. Are we going to allow that?
Of course not!
It doesn't make sense to not be involved in the politics these

Whether that is only a letter, an email, or an article in an
ezine, you must speak out. As an elected official, I'm sure Rep
Gerald Allen would love to hear your comments about his new
bill. Here is his contact information. Interestingly enough, he
doesn't provide an email address.
