A defiant Kentucky county clerk, who has been ordered to face a federal judge on Thursday in a hearing about her refusal to issue marriage licenses to gay couples, says she won't resign.
“Some people have said I should resign, but I have done my job well,” Rowan County Clerk Kim Davis said in a statement posted to the website of the lawfirm that represents her, Liberty Counsel.

“I never imagined a day like this would come, where I would be asked to violate a central teaching of Scripture and of Jesus Himself regarding marriage,” Davis said in the statement. “To issue a marriage license which conflicts with God’s definition of marriage, with my name affixed to the certificate, would violate my conscience. It is not a light issue for me. It is a Heaven or Hell decision. For me it is a decision of obedience.”

"It is not a light issue for me. It is a Heaven or Hell decision" - Kim Davis

Davis' office has steadfastly denied marriage licenses since the Supreme Court legalized gay marriage this summer, and that practice continued Tuesday morning when at least two same-sex couples were denied as Davis invoked "God's authority." Rowan County Attorney Cecil Watkins says the federal court alerted him later Tuesday morning that a hearing was scheduled for 11 a.m. Thursday in Ashland. Watkins says clerk Kim Davis is summonsed to attend, along with all the deputy clerks who work in her office.
After Davis initially stopped issuing marriage licenses, two gay couples and two straight couples sued her. A federal judge ordered her to issue the licenses, an appeals court upheld that decision and the Supreme Court on Monday declined to intervene in the case, seemingly leaving Davis with no legal ground to stand on.

Clerk under fire for denying same-sex marriage licenses

But Davis has refused to issue the licenses, saying her deeply held Christian beliefs don't let her endorse gay marriages.
As an elected official, Davis can't be fired. Any impeachment of her would have to wait until the legislature's regular session next year or could come during a costly special session.
“I have received death threats from people who do not know me,” Davis said in the statement. “I harbor nothing against them. I was elected by the people to serve as the County Clerk. I intend to continue to serve the people of Rowan County, but I cannot violate my conscience.”
On Tuesday, Davis asked David Moore and David Ermold, a couple who has been rejected four times by her office, to leave. They refused, surrounded by reporters and cameras.
"We're not leaving until we have a license," Ermold said.
"Then you're going to have a long day," Davis told him.
From the back of the room, Davis' supporters said: "Praise the Lord! ... Stand your ground."
Other activists shouted that Davis is a bigot and told her: "Do your job."
On Tuesday morning, shortly after Davis' remarks, the sheriff's office cleared the county office of those gathered to support both sides of the issue.
The two groups lined up on either side of the courthouse entrance to chant at each other. Davis' supporters told her to "stand firm," while gay-rights activists shouted "do your job."
The rejected couples' supporters called the American Civil Liberties Union, which filed the lawsuit on their behalf. They asked that their attorneys file to have Davis held in contempt.
Randy Smith, leading the group supporting Davis, said he knows following their instruction to "stand firm" might mean Davis goes to jail.
"But at the end of the day, we have to stand before God, which has higher authority than the Supreme Court," he said.
Ermold hugged Moore, his partner of 17 years, and they cried and swayed as they left the clerk's office. Davis' supporters marched by, chanting.
"I feel sad, I feel devastated," Ermold said. "I feel like I've been humiliated on such a national level, I can't even comprehend it."

I have wondering also Muslims Are one no wonder they are strong but we are divided why?

Sister to legendary pop icon and music artist, Michael Jackson last month was reported to be quitting the entertainment industry because of her new religion.
Janet who is married to Quatari Muslim Billionaire Wissam Al Mana, disclosed that she almost committed suicide because of the restrictions and burden her new life and religion brought upon her, saying it was not an easy transformation.
According to MTV News, she revealed that she has been deprived of almost everything in life, as she could not listen to music, drive a car, wear designer clothes only the “Black Abaya” and could not even move outside her residential home, in Doha as she was always surrounded by heavily armed security men.
Janet said her new song feat J.Cole “No Sleep” says it all from her marriage, to the difficulties involved in adapting to her new life, the stress involved in being a Muslim wife and the regrets she had due to the choices she made.

The unfortunate truth is that most people who call themselves Christians live nothing like Christ and just take His name in vain. When a person decides to convert from one religion to another, he/she makes this choice willingly and is ready to devote his/her life to the chosen religion. I have gathered information about famous football players who decided to convert to Christianity from Islam.

1. Djibril Cissé
Djibril Cissé is a French footballer who plays for JS Saint-Pierroise. In 2004, when Cissé played for Liverpool, he broke his right leg during the game against Blackburn Rovers. He was afraid to loose his leg below the knee, however, because of prompt attention from the trainers at the stadium, Cissé’s leg is functioning well now. Cisse was born Muslim though he converted to Christianity in 2007.

2. George Weah
George Weah is a former Liberian footballer who is regarded as one of the greatest African players of all time and of his generation, in 1995 he was named FIFA World Player of the Year and won the Ballon d’Or. Weah converted from Protestant Christianity to Islam and practiced Islam for 10 years before converting back. He hopes for peace for Muslims and Christians, and says they are “one people.” Nowadays Weah professes Protestantism.

3. Kevin-Prince Boateng
Many people believe that a Ghanaian international footballer, who was nominated for African Footballer of the Year, is a pure Christian. There are rumors that the young footballer converted to Islam because of his Turkish friends and girlfriend, but after he met his bride-to-be Jenny he turned back to Christianity. The information about his conversion is false. The footballer revealed during an interview that he is a devoted Muslim. He said he recites the holy Quran very often and also regularly observes the very important Islamic fasting period of Ramadan.

4. Samuel Kuffour
There are some articles in the Internet that suggest a Ghanaian retired professional footballer converted to Islam during the 2002-03 football season, however, this information isn’t true. He always was and still is a devoted Christian. During his interview with BBC for the ‘Heart and Soul’ documentary, Kuffour admitted that some German teammates were surprised to see him praying to God before games. He also said his Christian faith gave him the strength to accept the death of his 15-month-old daughter Godiva who drowned after falling into a swimming pool at the star’s home in Accra.

DjAndroid:
But op, never you write the name of my God with a small letter.

1) A pig is a real garbage gut. It will eat anything including urine, excrement, dirt, decaying animal flesh, maggots, or decaying vegetables. They will even eat the cancerous growths off other pigs or animals.

2) The meat and fat of a pig absorbs toxins like a sponge. Their meat can be 30 times more toxic than beef or venison.

3) When eating beef or venison, it takes 8 to 9 hours to digest the meat so what little toxins are in the meat are slowly put into our system and can be filtered by the liver. But when pork is eaten, it takes only 4 hours to digest the meat. We thus get a much higher level of toxins within a shorter time.

4) Unlike other mammals, a pig does not sweat or perspire. Perspiration is a means by which toxins are removed from the body. Since a pig does not sweat, the toxins remain within its body and in the meat.

5) Pigs and swine are so poisonous that you can hardly kill them with strychnine or other poisons.

6) Farmers will often pen up pigs within a rattlesnake nest because the pigs will eat the snakes, and if bitten they will not be harmed by the venom.

7) When a pig is butchered, worms and insects take to its flesh sooner and faster than to other animal’s flesh. In a few days the swine flesh is full of worms.

8 ) Swine and pigs have over a dozen parasites within them, such as tapeworms, flukes, worms, and trichinae. There is no safe temperature at which pork can be cooked to ensure that all these parasites, their cysts, and eggs will be killed.

9) Pig meat has twice as much fat as beef. A 3 oz T bone steak contains 8.5 grams of fat; a 3 oz pork chop contains 18 grams of fat. A 3 oz beef rib has 11.1 grams of fat; a 3 oz pork spare rib has 23.2 grams of fat.

10) Cows have a complex digestive system, having four stomachs. It thus takes over 24 hours to digest their vegetarian diet causing its food to be purified of toxins. In contrast, the swine’s one stomach takes only about 4 hours to digest its foul diet, turning its toxic food into flesh.

11) The swine carries about 30 diseases which can be easily passed to humans. This is why God commanded that we are not even to touch their carcase (Leviticus 11:.

12) The trichinae worm of the swine is microscopically small, and once ingested can lodge itself in our intestines, muscles, spinal cord or the brain. This results in the disease trichinosis. The symptoms are sometimes lacking, but when present they are mistaken for other diseases, such as typhoid, arthritis, rheumatism, gastritis, MS, meningitis, gall bladder trouble, or acute alcoholism.

13) The pig is so poisonous and filthy, that nature had to prepare him a sewer line or canal running down each leg with an outlet in the bottom of the foot. Out of this hole oozes pus and filth his body cannot pass into its system fast enough. Some of this pus gets into the meat of the pig.

1. The wife that wins all arguments with her husband is not
wise. The home is not a law court.
2. The wife that uses s*x as a weapon in the home - placing
embargo, going to bed in jeans shorts and trousers - lacks
wisdom.
3. The wife that uses the modern trends and laws of
"women's rights" to insult or ridicule her husband simply
makes a fool of herself.
4. A woman that makes her home devoid of peace through
bickering, nagging and quarrels needs help. A man should
be eager to run away from office to be at home, for that
should be the safest and cosiest place on earth for him.
5. Modern-day equality in marriage does not mean
competition. It simply means partnership. Taking advantage
of such equality to turn around and become the de facto
head of the home and oppress the man is tantamount to
playing with fire. If you destroy your home, soon you will be
the boss of an empty home.
6. A wise wife makes the man feel so good that he assumes
that he is the head. Once he gets that feeling, the woman
gently wields her power and the head actually turns to
wherever the neck wants without a protest.
7. A wife that does not pull herself away from friends'
influence and advice or even from the control of her mother
and father will have herself to blame.
8. When a man is looking for a wife, he bypasses women of
different shapes and sizes to choose a wife. But soon after
childbirth, many women hide under the excuse of childbirth
to let go of themselves. Many stop bothering about their
looks, shape, dressing, etc. Within 5 years of marriage,
people start wondering if the wife is the man's aunt, even
though she is 7 years younger. Her defence is that if he
truly loves her, he should love her the way she is, but when
looking for a wife, he saw people like the present YOU and
ignored them and settled for the former YOU. Today, you go
to bed smelling of onions.... You go to bed wearing
grandmothers' clothes. Why are you playing with your
marriage? Love is not about looks - we know. But looks
enhances love and marriage. There is a difference between
someone disfiguring herself and the person being disfigured
by an accident.
Please don't be complacent. As hard as it may be, work on
looking like you were when he first saw you and began the
chase.
9. If every night you are tired, sleepy, sore, down with
headache or fever, "not in the mood," you are a joker, a
serious comedian!
10. If your children suddenly become more important to you
than your husband, you need prayers.
11. If you assume that as the woman, only you need to be
pampered and fussed over while the man is a stone that has
no emotions, you need to be pitied.
12. A woman that has the mind of a wife does not excite her
husband. Wives are usually complacent and presumptuous.
A wife must strive to have the mind of a girlfriend. A
girlfriend is always nicer, sweeter, more loving and always
thinking of ways to wow her sweetheart; a girlfriend does
not try to win all arguments, does not call the man a
"useless man", is not careless about her looks or dressing,
always smiles and laughs with the man, sends the man
sweet messages and calls, etc. Are you your husband's
girlfriend in word and in deed?

LASTLY, DO NOT INFORM ME OF YOUR QUARRELS, I
DIDN’T JOIN YOU TOGETHER, GOD DID, GO AND INFORM
HIM AND HE WILL SORT IT OUT.

Ekiti State Governor Ayo Fayose has promised the All Progressives Congress (APC) a torrid time in the South-West and throughout Nigeria, saying he will be playing a prominent role in that regard.
Ayo FayoseThe governor made the remark in a press statement today in which he spoke on the political crisis in Ekiti, where he faces impeachment proceedings on the same job for the second time in his political career.
He described the APC as being sore over the fact that in all of the South-West, Ekiti was the only state they could—he said—“not "rob" for President-Elect Mohammed Buhari (rtd)”.
“I wish to declare unequivocally that I remain loyal to President Jonathan even after May 29 as my support for his re-election and administration was not about bread-and-butter,” he said. “I was convinced he was moving Nigeria in the right direction, despite all the noise. I have no regrets supporting him. If same situation presents itself again, I would do it all over.”
He asserted that even if President Jonathan were to be deserted by all Nigerians today, he would not, as he has chosen to be Jonathan’s last-man standing.
“If for this show of loyalty to Mr President and my party, APC and its leaders believe that the best way to pay me back is to make Ekiti ungovernable, the decision on appropriate reaction belongs to the people, whose mandate I keep in trust,” he said.

These four men accused of stabbing Mozambican man Emmanuel Sithole to death on Saturday April 18th appeared in court today and were later remanded in prison. SA Police released their photo on Twitter.

Artist, Terry G has taken off his dreads after so many years of having them. He posted the photo above this morning with the caption, ‘I am free’. See a photo of him and his dreads before now below…..
