Fox News Attacks Google As Anti-Church?
May 22, 2012
150+ Fox News Bias videos at www.youtube.com When "Fox and Friends" spun a story that Newsbusters had already spun from an article in Christianity Today on Google's exclusion of religious, political, and other possibly controversial groups from discounts under its Google Apps non-profit program, the Fox News anchors made 3 factual errors in under a minute to support a false claim that Google's non-profit restrictions exclusively target religion and churches, as I show in this video. The clips I use of Steve Doocy, Ainsley Earhardt, and Brian Kilmeade come from a segment of Fox News' August 26, 2011, broadcast of "Fox and Friends" (which I have not found available online) The image I use of the Google search for "thou shalt not give discounts to churches" comes from the page at bit.ly The images I use of the Newsbusters article titled "Google Won't Give Churches Same Break It Gives Other Non-Profits" come from the page at bit.ly The images I use of the Christianity Today article titled "Google Cuts Churches Out Of Nonprofit Program" come from the page at bit.ly The image I use of restrictions under Google's Non-Profit program comes from the page at bit.ly

Religions Must Cover Birth Control?
May 22, 2012
170+ Fox News Bias videos at bit.ly The birth control coverage regulation announced by Health and Human Services Secretary Kathleen Sebelius on January 20, slightly modified today, led to a lot of misinformation about the rule in the media, especially on Fox News where I found Fox News anchors misinforming viewers about the exemption for religious employers, about whether "abortion pills" were covered, and about the cost to employers of covering contraceptives, as I show in this video. The clips I use of Fox News anchor Steve Doocy and Fox News Legal Analyst Peter Johnson. Jr., come from a longer segment of Fox News' February 1, 2012, broadcast of "Fox and Friends" available online at bit.ly The clip I use of Fox News anchor Bill Hemmer interviewing Becket Fund lawyer Hannah Smith comes from a longer segment of Fox News' February 2, 2012, broadcast of "America's Newsroom" available online at bit.ly The clip I use of Fox News anchor Megyn Kelly citing the "cost" of contraceptive coverage comes from a longer segment of Fox News' February 6, 2012, broadcast of "America' Live" which I have not found available online The quote I use of the HHS regulation exempting some religious employers from covering contraceptives for their employees comes from the US government webpage at 1.usa.gov The image I use of the California Supreme Court case of Catholic Charities of Sacramento Inc. v.

Jon Stewart Boycott By Religious Right Led By Bill Donohue?
May 22, 2012
Via The Raw Story: "Catholic League president Bill Donohue told Cenk Ugyur of The Young Turks on Thursday that he didn't want Daily Show host Jon Stewart to be fired, he just wanted an apology.

WWN presents....

SOURCES: "Saudi Girls' School defies clerics with basketball -- paper" -- Reuters story in Jordan Times, 25 April 2012 "IDF rejects religious soldiers' request to wear earplugs during ceremonies when women sing" -- Jerusalem Post, 24 April 2012 Please note: The word "women" is used when reading the Jordan Times story, which in fact refers to girls. This is because I was too lazy to transcribe from the newspaper article, but copied and pasted the text of the Reuters story into my script. At some point an editor must have changed the word 'girls' to 'women' and I didn't notice the change. Sorry for the confusion.

Does Religion Cause Violence
May 23, 2012
Chris brings us an argument from William T. Cavanaugh about whether religion causes violence. William T. Cavanaugh's introduction states: "Everyone knows that religion has a dangerous tendency to promote violence. This story is part of the conventional wisdom of Western societies, and it underlies many of our institutions and policies, from limits on the public role of religion to efforts to promote democracy in the Middle East."

The Religious Right is Anti Christian
May 23, 2012
I would like to talk about something that I rarely talk about, and that is religion. The reason I feel the need to speak about it, is because it is so closely mixed in with today's politics. I was raised a Christian and I am still a Christian to this day. After nearly 40 years of the religious right getting so much attention, I feel that the rest of us Christians are by in large ignored. Have you ever given any thought to why they call themselves the religious right? Well, I have. They have removed themselves from mainstream Christianity, and politicalized their movement. I mean, why not call themselves Christians and leave it at that? Well, here is my theory. First ask yourself what makes a person a Christian? It's the teachings of Jesus Christ as it is written in the New Testament. But the Religious Right ignore the New Testament and follows the Old instead. They do not use the title of Christian because they're really a political movement, not a Christian one. Whenever they find something in the New Testament that doesn't conform well to their political standings they trump it with a verse from the Old Testament. Doing this creates an oxymoron and diminishes the teachings of Jesus Christ and the New Testament itself. Even though the New Testament and Jesus Christ is what supposed to make a Christian a Christian. In Sunday school Christians are taught that Jesus was sent because those who followed the Old Testament were falling short of the Glory of God. The religious ...

Voices of Faith: Aren't some Bible stories fictional?
The Rev. Betty Hanna-Witherspoon, pastor of Ebenezer A.M.E. Church, Kansas City, Mo.: African Methodists believe all Scripture (including both testaments) is inspired by God and useful for teaching, for reproof, for correction and for training in righteousness. (2 Timothy 3:16) Scriptures tell the story of the divine relationship between God and humanity that comes to fulfillment in Jesus the Christ. In practice, this means that we teach all Scripture is inspired by God in order to grow a relationship between God and believers. African Methodists are asked to study the Bible as God's word and in all things to strive to make God's word the rule of their lives. We do not believe that the categories fiction and nonfiction apply to the stories ...
