Don't allow President Obama to remove America's most basic freedoms
Contact Congress today about proposed "hate crimes" legislation -
before it's too late!
April 20, 2009
Dear Ann,
America's most basic freedoms of speech, conscience and the free
exercise of religion are under attack and the time to act is now. If President
Obama succeeds with his priority of passing the Hate Crimes law, H.R. 1913 -
the Local Law Enforcement Hate Crimes Prevention Act, it could lead to the
criminalization of the Biblical view of homosexuality in sermons and elsewhere.
An offended homosexual could accuse a pastor, Sunday School teacher of
broadcaster of causing emotional injury simply by expressing the Biblical view
that homosexuality is sinful.
H.R. 1913 is one more step in the campaign to legitimize
homosexuality in our culture by treating it as a protected class along with
race, gender, and religion. The long term goal is to create one more platform
from which to eradicate wrong thinking about homosexuality. H.R. 1913 will
undoubtedly pave the way to legislation that will make thinking Biblically
about homosexuality a "hate crime."
We believe prosecutors and anti-Christian groups will use loop
holes in the proposed legislation to muzzle the church from speaking out on
Biblical standards of morality which are shared by most Americans. Unnecessary
lawsuits will bring a chilling effect to the free speech and religious liberty
of our churches and of our members.
Laws already exist in all 50 states to punish violent crime, making
this legislation unnecessary, unfair, indefinable, un-American and
constitutionally suspect.
Laws in civilized nations have always been designed to punish
conduct, not thought. H.R. 1913 is not designed to aid in crime fighting.
Punishing wrong beliefs about homosexuality is the sole aim of H.R. 1913 - the
Local Law Enforcement Hate Crimes Prevention Act.
Take Action!
Contact your members of Congress today. Ask him or her to
oppose H.R. 1913 - the Local Law Enforcement Hate Crimes Prevention Act, or any
other federal "hate crimes" bill that could lay the groundwork for censorship
of America's most basic freedoms of speech, conscience and religion.
Please forward this alert to all of your friends and family
members.

efforts are worthy of support, would you consider making a small tax-deductible
