NEW YEAR, SAME HOME ROOM: Homeschoolers prepare to go Back to School
|
Summer vacation is almost over and as kids prepare to go back to school, homeschoolers will see little to no change in their environment and in most cases will not need to adjust to a new teacher. Members of the Homeschooling Legal Defense Association (HSLDA) are available for interviews to discuss the adjustments that need to be made by not just the homeschoolers but their teachers as well. “We see some very interesting dynamics at work this time of the year,” says HSLDA President Michael Smith. “We see it every year. In these homeschooling situations, it’s both parent and child who need to ramp up together, almost at similar levels. That creates an environment of mutual respect for the commitment level each is expected to have which, in turn, creates mutual accountability.”...

HAS DARK KNIGHT OCCULTISM SPILLED INTO LIVES OF ITS ACTORS?
|
Batman star Christian Bale has reportedly been on a violent rampage in real life, first in a hotel altercation and later for reportedly assaulting his mother and sister! Close colleagues of actor Heath Ledger attest to the fact that he totally immersed himself into the evil role of the Dark Knight Joker. One died and the other seems to be out of control of his emotions. Coincidence? According to occult expert and author Travis Verge, nothing happens by coincidence. Verge contends the world is witnessing occult manifestations in the film’s cast that crossed the line, blurring evil fantasy with real evil. During your interview with Travis, he gives eerie critical analysis that may put shivers down the spines of your audience that they’d be wise not to soon forget. ...

LEFT BEHIND SAGA WILL CONTINUE! 8-Year Deadlock Over Film Rights Comes to an End
|
Fans who have been patiently anticipating a fourth installment in the Left Behind series of Christian-thriller films may not have to wait much longer. A settlement in the eight-year-long dispute over the series’ film rights signals a legal greenlight that means the saga can continue. Andre van Heerden, CEO of the Left Behind series production company, Cloud Ten Pictures, is available to discuss the settlement and the subsequent excitement it brings regarding the likely awakening of one of the most popular straight-to-video film collections of all time. Details of the settlement aside, all disputes relating to the three films produced by Cloud Ten, based on the first and second books in the Left Behind series, have been waived. In exchange, the Reverend Timothy LaHaye,...

OPRAH: “A CONDUIT TO HELL” Concerned Pastor Says She’s Dealing “Spiritual Crack”
|
Yes, the devil is deceiving. But who would’ve thought he’d use the most beloved media mogul of our time—the queen of feel-good talk—Oprah Winfrey, as a tool. For Pastor Bill Keller, the world’s leading Internet evangelist and founder of LivePrayer.com, there is no mistaking the danger of Winfrey’s submersion in and preaching of New Age theologies. According to Keller and many other evangelical Christians, it is a misguided path to hell, and far too many people are now walking it thanks to her. “This is of clear concern because we’re talking about such a strong cult of personality,” says Keller. “This woman, with a multimillion member fan base worldwide, is claiming to be a Christian, but is drawing deeper and deeper into New Age programming and the promotion of spiritual...

STONE THEM!: Tablet Artifact used to discredit Christianity
|
To think that the twelve Apostles were copycat artists—so distraught over the passing of their master, Jesus, that they turned to an existing faith prototype to begin spreading the word of His resurrection. So speculates Israel Knohl, a professor of Talmudic and biblical language at Jerusalem’s Hebrew University, after studying an inscription on a recently discovered stone tablet artifact. For filmmaker Andre van Heerden, such speculation is not only absurd, it’s demonstrative of a more subtle dynamic in what he sees as a worldwide persecution of Christians and the beliefs they hold. Fresh off the release of SMUGGLER’S RANSOM, his new Cold-War-ear film about the Soviet capture of a young woman attempting to smuggle Bibles into Romania, van Heerden is available to discuss...

GOD TO DOCTOR: YOU’RE NOT ME: New South Dakota Law Sparks a Metaphysical Standoff

CONTACT: To schedule an interview, call: Special Guests/ Lynne Campbell, Shauna Whitlock at: 630-848-0750. Television inquiries: Jerry McGlothlin, 212-699-2518. GOD TO DOCTOR: YOU’RE NOT ME New South Dakota Law Sparks a Metaphysical Standoff Just when it would seem the whole world has registered both sides of the abortion debate in their minds, a new South Dakota state law has inspired a renowned OB/GYN to proclaim he’s “doing God’s work” when he performs an abortion. According to Pro Life crusaders like Chris Slattery, president and founder of EMC Front Line Pregnancy Centers, it may be a statement that is as confusing as it is outrageous, but it’s also an opportunity. “On the surface,” says Slattery, “it looks like another case of an abortionist’s bizarre logic.

BACK TO SCHOOL ALTERNATIVE: Home Schooling
|
Summer is nearly over, and as if on cue, the national media is once again reminding parents that its time for them to send their children back to the same government schools that have repeatedly failed them in the past. For far too many children from throughout the U.S., back to school will not mean back to education, but to a curriculum that is designed to indoctrinate them in the ‘religion’ of secular humanism and statist ideology. The real story that parents need to hear, before they send their children back for another dose of state controlled and taxpayer funded brainwashing, is that they do have an alternative to so-called public schools. The alternative that these parents need to know more about is home schooling. The homeschool movement is here to stay. Recent...

STUDY: A FATHER’S FAITH DETERMINES HIS CHILD’S FAITH
|
A 1994 study concluded that it was a father’s faith that determined the faithfulness of his children—surprisingly, the mother’s devotion had comparatively little impact. One editorial comment on the study puts it like this: “No father - no family - no faith. Winning and keeping men is essential to the community of faith and vital to the work of all mothers and the future salvation of our children.” A new book, The Values-Driven Family: A Proactive Plan for Successful Biblical Parenting,” by Marc Carrier, takes this news to a whole new level. Conducting Talk Show interviews, between Easter and Father's Day, on this often overlooked finding, Author Marc Carrier gives a clarion call to American fathers, saying, “Dads, this is our burden to bear—the future of our children...

SHOULD THE BIBLE BE TAUGHT IN PUBLIC SCHOOLS?
|
The cover story in Time Magazine is about a resurgence among some states in offering elective Bible classes in public high schools. • Should the Bible be taught in public schools? • Can the Bible be taught in a way that is respectful of differing religious and secular views about the Bible? • Do bills requiring the Bible to be taught violate the U.S. Constitution, i.e., the First Amendment’s prohibition on the establishment of religion? • Why do polls consistently show that Americans are so biblically illiterate, and do we need public schools to help reverse this trend? Alan J. Reinach, Esq., is uniquely qualified to speak to these issues during your Talk Show interview. He is both a constitutional lawyer and a Christian minister, and serves as President of the...

JUROR WAS WRONG ON INDECENCY CASE
|
Contrary to what one jury may think, hardcore sexual material that degrades and brutalizes women is not acceptable in New York On March 6, 20007, a federal District Court jury in the Eastern District of New York (encompassing Brooklyn and Long Island) determined that hardcore pornographic depictions of sadomasochistic sex did not violate the federal obscenity law. The jury, however, did convict the defendant of sex trafficking one woman who appeared in the pornography. The basic guidelines for a jury in determining whether sexual material is obscene are (1) whether the average person, applying contemporary community standards, would find that the material, taken as a whole, appeals to the prurient interest; (2) whether the material depicts or describes sexual conduct...

COLLEGES WISE UP AND ACCEPT HOMESCHOOLERS
|
There is a new trend in U.S. education that is going largely unnoticed: Colleges and Universities that once snubbed Homeschoolers are now accepting them with open arms. It only took a few decades, but colleges are finally wising up to the realization that if they want to have some of the brightest adademic hopefuls, they had better embrace homeschoolers. Although it took a while, universities have come to realize that since a homeschooler is already trained in self-directed learning they are uniquely prepared to make the best use of the college experience. Conducting interviews on this topic are spokesmen with Home School Legal Defense Association (HSLDA), the nation’s largest home school organization. (See biographies below.)

HOMESCHOOLING PARENTS MIGHT LOSE CUSTODY OF REMAINING 5 CHILDREN
|
As if it wasn't bad enough to lose one child over an over zealous German government criminalizing homeschooling, how much worse is it to by to lose ALL children over the one incident? Sounds draconian? Sounds impossible for US "ally" Germany to do such a horrendous thing? Think again. Adolph Hitler first banned homeschooling in Germany to retain total government control over German children. But since no government officials have ever overturned Hitler's ban, enforcement of Hitler's edict continues with a vengeance. Americans were shocked a couple of weeks ago to hear about the German homeschooling family who lost their daughter at the hands of 15 uniformed German policemen, forcibly removing her from her home, taking her to see a psychiatrist to be examined for a...

During your interview with Robert Peters, he quotes from his colleague Ed Hynes’ in his February “View from Riverside Drive” column: "The idea of creating a XXX Internet domain for porn sites has been revived at the Internet Corporation for Assigned Names and Numbers (ICANN). The agency backed away from the proposal last May but has brought it back now with "stronger provisions to prohibit child pornography and require labeling of Web sites with sexually explicit materials." ICANN indicated in early January that it was accepting comments on the proposed .xxx domain until February 5, 2007, BUT COMMENTS...

GERMAN HOMESCHOOLED CHILD SENTENCED TO PSYCHIATRY UNIT

Home Schoolers in America have had their fair share of scares over the years but in Germany, things are getting worse each week for home school families. In the first week of February, 2007, a 17-year-old homeschooled girl was forcibly removed from her parent's custody by over 15 German police officers. The homeschooled girl has been placed in the child psychiatry unit of the Nuremberg clinic because her family dared to home school her. Conducting Talk Show interviews on this subject is Christopher Klicka and a panel of spokespersons (see list below) with Home School Legal Defense Association (HSLDA), America’s largest homeschooling organization with a word of warning that what is happening in Germany today may be knocking on our door tomorrow.

WILL EUROPE BAN HOME SCHOOLING? Is America Next?

The European Court on Human Rights has ruled that parents do NOT have the fundamental right to homeschool their children. Education and political experts are now speculating that this could end home schooling in Europe and they question: “Could America be next?” Home School Legal Defense Association (HSLDA) is providing talk show guests to discuss this draconian decision. “This is one of the worst rulings in the history of homeschooling,” said Chris Klicka, Senior Counsel for HSLDA. The ruling means that all twenty-five states in the European Union could act to ban homeschooling. This is already the case in Germany where at least 40 families are being prosecuted. It has reached the point in Germany where state authorities are imprisoning parents, levying heavy fines,...

HOMESCHOOL HEROES

How did the modern homeschool movement succeeded against all odds? The thriving homeschool movement we see today was achieved by many brave families who faced down seemingly impossible odds. “We owe a debt of gratitude to the early homeschoolers who stood fast for their right to homeschool,” said Home School Legal Defense Association Senior Counsel Chris Klicka, who has just released his new book “Homeschool Heroes: the Struggle and Triumph of Homeschooling in America.” The book records the turbulent history of the modern homeschool movement, which saw families during the 1980’s go to extreme lengths to evade social services and school officials. These families regularly faced criminal charges and jail time for simply educating their children at home. Twenty three years...
