San Diego, CA Says “NO” to Home Bible Study
A pastor and his wife who hold weekly Bible studies with about 15 people in their home were interrogated by a San Diego County Official who then told them must stop the Bible studies or face hefty fines.
Attorney Dean Broyles of The Western Center For Law & Policy is representing the couple who wish to remain anonymous until a demand letter can be given to the county..
According to Broyles, the county official asked “’Do you have a regular meeting in your home? Do you say amen? Do you pray? ‘Do you say praise the Lord?”
The pastor’s wife answered yes to all of these.
Broyles said a few days later the couple received a written warning that listed “unlawful use of land” and told them to “stop religious assembly or apply for a major use permit” - a permit that often involves traffic and environmental studies, compliance with parking and sidewalk regulations, and can cost tens of thousands of dollars.
If the do not obtain the permit, the county official reportedly warned, the couple will be charged escalating fines beginning at $100, then $200, $500, $1000, “and then it will get ugly.”

Weekly Poll for June 1
In a presidential proclamation on the White House website, Barack Obama has recognized what he calls “the determination and dedication” of the LGBT movement by proclaiming June as “Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, and Transgender Pride Month.”
“The LGBT rights movement has achieved great progress,” Obama states in the official proclamation, “but there is more to be done. LGBT youth should feel safe to learn without the fear of harassment, and LGBT families and seniors should be allowed to live their lives with dignity and respect.”
The proclamation, released on Monday, credits the LGBT movement with being a factor in more Americans who ascribe to those groups “living their lives openly today than ever before.”

The Woman Who Would Have Discovered THE Ultimate Cure For Cancer Was Murdered Today
Jane Doe, a woman who was uniquely gifted by God with the perfect combination of intelligence, tenacity and the pure doggedness necessary to do what ever it takes to excel in science in order to conquer cancer was murdered this morning when her mother, a 21 year old college student who didn’t want her life inconvenienced by a baby, aborted her.
Jane’s murder is a major blow to humanity and her death will set the world of medical science back 50 years because Jane will not be present to make her ground breaking discovery that would have lead to a simple Cancer vaccine that would have eradicated cancer once and for all. Jane’s murder means that hundreds of millions of people around the globe will now needlessly suffer and die from cancer for many many many years to come.
