Same-sex marriage fans can’t use discrimination law to discriminate

from Coalition for Marriage: Two men or two women can marry, but there’s no law saying you have to agree with it. Many act as though there is, particularly in universities and in schools. We must defend the right to say that marriage is only between a man and a woman. The good news is that people have taken a courageous stand. Now there are great precedents set by our highest courts. These protect our freedoms – providing we are vigilant. It has been heartening that the UK Government recently...

Weak Data, Small Samples, and Politicized Conclusions on LGBT Discrimination

by Mark Regnerus, Public Discourse: The measurement, analytic, and interpretive decision-making displayed in much (though certainly not all) of the LGBT discrimination and well-being literature is troubling, indicative of a lack of standards, poorly defined concepts, impressionistic conclusions derived from small numbers of interviews, the politicization of results, and the overall novelty of the field. According to a purported deep dive into the social scientific literature, discrimination...

Stand up, male comedy writers, against this feminist onslaught

by Will Jones, The Conservative Woman: ANOTHER day, another feminist activist with a little power using it to disadvantage men and favour women, and getting away with it. Saskia Schuster, head of comedy for ITV, has announced she will no longer commission shows with all-male writing teams. Shockingly, if predictably, she justified her new policy with a crude generalisation about men: ‘Too often the writing room is not sensitively run. It can be aggressive and slightly bullying.’ Really? Does...

The Guardian attacks religious teaching on gender, revealing that society requires complete secularization and opposes all religious truth claims

by Albert Mohler: Then next, we’re going to turn to an even more important article on a similar theme. This one appeared in the Guardian, a liberal newspaper published in London. The author is Beatrice Alba. The headline, “If we reject gender discrimination in every other arena, why do we accept it in religion?” This is a big story that zeroes in on something Christians had better observe very closely. Alba’s point is this. When you are looking at religions and...
