POPSAmerican Evangelicals Role In Uganda Effort To ‘Wipe Out’ Gays This barbaric legislation stifles free speech by threatening anyone who is accused of “promoting” homosexuality with five to seven year prison sentences. Snitching on gay friends and family members is strongly encouraged because “failure to disclose the ‘offence’ within 24 hours of knowledge makes somebody liable to a fine or imprisonment of up to three years.” Sadly, this witch-hunt has the blood stained fingerprints of leading American evangelicals. The Fellowship, (aka The Family) one of America’s most powerful and secretive fundamentalist organization’s, converted Uganda’s President Yoweri Museveni (pictured top) to its anti-gay brand of Christianity, which is the “intellectual” impetus behind the anti-gay crackdown. The clandestine organization’s leader, Doug Coe, calls Museveni The Fellowship’s “key man” in Africa. Jeff Sharlet, author of “The Family”, writes of the African strongman’s conversion:

POPSControversy at Calvin College over GLBT issues in the classroom It sounds to me like this is a classic case of a teaching faculty resenting the imposition, by a relatively distant and detached board of trustees, of a set of vague and ideological guidelines for classroom discussion. As a teacher myself, I find it incredibly insulting when someone who's never worked in a classroom setting presumes to tell me what constitutes an acceptable thing to say. Seen on christianitytoday's Delicious stream (delicious.com/christianitytoday).

POPSJocks Pose To Fight Homophobia The Convicts, founded in 2004 as Australia's first gay rugby team, are the current titleholders of the Bingham Cup, the International Gay Rugby Association's world championship. "To have representatives of the national rugby union team taking a public and positive stance against homophobia speaks volumes to counter negative stereotypes," Sydney Convicts president Charlie Winn said. "It also sends a message to the many young players that their role models at the professional level accept diversity and support our community." http://news.yahoo.com/s/advocate/20090818/ts_advocate/jocks_pose_for_photos_to_fight_homophobia

POPSEpiscopals Continue to Strain the Anglican Communion over Gay Folk And we thank them. Unitarian Universalists have long been fully supportive of GLBT folk (in committed relationships or not) being fully engaged in the life of the denomination at all levels. It is good to see other denominations come to the realization that gay people are, gasp, people.

POPSEverybody's Got the Right to Love 'Everybody's got the RIGHT to LOVE - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=C_g2nGlvTKg I met my first boyfriend while this song was on the charts. The Supremes without Ross, Wow, harmonies again! History is on our side, if time isn't. The fence is where Matthew Shepard was tied, beaten and left for dead. Alongside the picture, Mrs. Shepard.

POPSHomosexual Marriage is Really For the Love of Money It is also these money powers which threaten politicians if they dare to speak against them (calling it "hate") or coerce their support for the gratification of their anti-social agenda which also is economically motivated. "For the love of money is the root of all sorts of evil". And this is no exception. So really they do not do this for any "love" of society which they themselves despise while accusing others of "hate", while they harbor this very thing against others who will not bow to their revolutionary agenda.

POPSAfrican-American Transgender History - 50s Style From the comments: Monie wrote: The interesting thing is that Jet/ Ebony covered the LGBT community in the 50’s but they aren’t covering it at all now. It seems that Ebony/ Jet and many in the Black community are less accepting now than 50 years ago. I wonder why that is? Yes, I wonder too.

POPSMayor Adams' Sex Scandal Come on man - you abused your position by shagging an intern (don't care if you really did wait until he was 18) and then lied during the campaign to save your political ass. This certainly is a character issue. Hold gay politicians to the same standards as straight ones. How would this play if Adams was straight and it was a female intern we were talking about?

POPSOur Wonderful Mainstream American Culture
The corrupters won loooong ago. (OK, yeah, the picture IS kinda hot,......but,......John & Mary Ordinary USA whose existence in great numbers has always given me some sense of security as to a normal moral majority navigating and populating the mainstream of our culture has had this crap rammed down their throats just a bit more every year, every day, until they feel defeated, outnumbered, insecure in their communities, and increasingly impotent in their abilities to pass on sensible values to the next generation until they are finally dying off. We are left with this. And,...oh, yeah,..."CHANGE!" Change, my ASS!. All the deteriorations of our culture can be traced back to GREED. This is not about hating gays and gays are not to be blamed for our downfall. NOT AT ALL! It is about the need to dominate and indoctrinate. And a coming administration that has shown little more than hypocrisy so far. The site where this ad was also honors Oby for non-discrimination re: gay/lesbian/trans
