Re: FW: Trying To Take Pastors off TV

Well, as with most of these e-chain letters... this one is false. It even dates back to 1975. There are several good web sites that you can look up these kinds of things to find out if they are true or not before sending these out and helping perpetuate these scams. They just make Christians look stupid and fanatical and worse than that, many people when receiving these from a friend who they respect, will believe these lies. And we all know what happened to the Boy who "Cried Wolf"... Big things are happening in our government right now, things that could take away our freedoms in America and perhaps forever change this once great nation into a Dictatorship. Now is the time to get out facts straight. Don't you agree? I hope I don't sound angry. I'm not, I just think this is an important responsibility's, that we all share as Christians, to Spread the Truth and try not to help perpetuates llies.... Here's a few links from where I looked this on up the easiest thing to do is, just past some of the main text of one of these e-mails in to the Google.com search engine and see what comes up. Most if the time, it it's been around for a while you will get allot of good results that way. Here's what I pasted into Google to get the info. I cleaned it up, by taking out the spaces and these things >... they sometimes make for bad results in your search.


"Pastor removal from television
      
    Removal of Joel Osteen, Joyce Meyer, Charles Stanley, David Jeremiah and all other pastors from the airwaves. An organization has been granted a  Federal Hearing on the same subject by the Federal Communications Commission  (FCC)  in Washington , D.C.  Their petition, Number 2493, would ultimately pave the way to stop the  reading of the gospel of our Lord and Savior, on the airwaves of America. They got 287,000 signatures to back their stand!"


Here are the links to the best info I found...
     

Petition for the Removal of Religious Teachers and Pastors From the Airwaves - Fiction!

Summary of the eRumor: 
A forwarded email warning readers of an organization that is petitioning the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) to remove religious teachers and pastors from the airwaves.  The email goes on to urge readers to sign another petition to keep the broadcasters on the air.

The Truth: 
This eRumor is Fiction and is a variation of an old myth that dates back to 1975 about self proclaimed atheist Madeline Murray O'Hair trying to remove religious content from the airwaves.      Click here for original findings.

"According to the Federal Communications web site, there was a petition RM-2493, but it was filed by a couple of fellows who felt that churches and religious organizations should not be operating so many FM radio frequencies that are classed as "educational." In December of 1974, they asked the FCC to take several actions including freezing all new applications from religious organizations seeking educational frequencies and regulating the content of religiously operated stations. This prompted religious broadcasters to ask for public response to the FCC on the matter and the FCC eventually issued a ruling that was favorable to the religious broadcasters.  Click here for FCC statement"

USA Government
Interesting Videos about things going on in our Government in the USA. I don't know if your internet connection is fast enough to watch videos. It it is, I think you will find these videos, interesting, informative and also quite  scary... The Nation Media has given very little to no coverage on what is going on with these issues in our Government. I have made a play list on YouTube with the videos I have found, from other News Sources and some direct recording of the floors of Congress. They are of Congress Woman Michele Bachmann. Utile I found these videos, I had never heard of her and she is a Republican Representative of Minnesota, so here constituents are of course there. I have never cared about what Party a person is affiliated with, just what they are doing in there jobs as Representatives of the People. She has some very good ideas on solving our money problems in the US and is standing up for our freedoms and exposing the things that are going on in the Government now. f you only watch one of these videos, watch this one...
