: /p> p>Thank you, Mr. Colebatch, for reporting on the Pope's tribute to the Boy Scout. It brought to mind an editorial in yesterday's New Jersey Star Ledger which insisted that New Jersey's Civil Unions law didn't go far enough, and that "gay marriage" was necessary to ensure civil rights to homosexuals. That in turn recalled the New Jersey State Supreme Court's decision in 2006 that ordered the State Assembly to craft legislation providing for civil unions. This is the same supreme court that earlier had inexplicably and unanimously ascertained that the Boy Scouts were a "public accommodation," in an effort to force the Boy Scouts to accept a homosexual scout master. Fortunately the U.S. Supreme Court in a 5 to 4 decision ( the usual suspects, Breyer, Ginsburg, Souter and Stevens dissenting) slapped down the New Jersey court, which has proven itself to be little more than an outcome-based liberal advocacy group. I imagine that I won't be seeing anything about the Pope and the Boy Scouts in the [Red] Star Ledger . br> -- Paul DeSisto br> Cedar Grove, New Jersey /p> p> LOSING A TWO-FRONT WAR br> Re: Jeffrey Lord's Lizard Listing
