Benji, I'm so sorry to read that you got banned. I read what you linked to and I want you to know that you have my support. Although you and I have had some differences of opinions in the past, you have been in my honest opinion, a very fair and fine editor. It would be a huge loss to both myself and to the Wikipedia community if you were not to return. You have always been more than helpful to a newbie such as myself. You have assumed good faith with me more times than I can count. I thank you for that. I wish you the best of luck and sincerely hope things go your way. Your ban on that certain page should be lifted. Just my humble opinion. [[User:CadenS|CadenS]] ([[User talk:CadenS|talk]]) 09:21, 19 April 2008 (UTC)

== Your topic ban ==
Benjiboi, we're three days short of the one month mark. I've made you an offer to open a thread at [[WP:AE]] on your behalf if there weren't any further problems, and there haven't been - in fact I'm impressed with how gracefully you've handled this situation. So three days shouldn't matter; would you like me to open the request to lift the restriction now?

Also, I want you to hear it from me that Matt Sanchez was one of the guests on a ''[[WP:NTWW|Not the Wikipedia Weekly]]'' skypecast I hosted today. You might want to listen once it's uploaded; I've opened a thread on [[WP:AN]] to sound out the community about the proper way to present the recording. ''Not the Wikipedia Weekly'' is unbiased: if you'd like to come on our next skypecast I'd be glad to have you. These recordings are pretty much open sign-ups, but I want you to particularly know that you're welcome to participate.

Revision as of 01:27, 20 April 2008


I have been banned link here, unjustly and without due process, IMHO, and now have to spend my time wikilawyering (which I hate). I will be generally unable to do anything constructive elsewhere until I can figure out how to file an Arbcom case to get my ban lifted.

To avoid wikistress from what I consider to be homophobic vandals, I often take breaks.

Living Memory LGBT History Timeline from Trans perspective

A possible resource. Transgender Aging Network has launched a project - Living Memory LGBT History Timeline to assist with aging LGBT folks "It is impossible to tell without asking someone precisely which public events shaped their lives, but knowing what was likely reported in newspapers and discussed at dinner parties during a person’s lifetime may help you understand how their worldview was shaped. To offer insight into the concerns, lifestyles, and belief sets of lesbian, gay, bisexual, and transgender (LGBT) people who are now 50 and older, the Transgender Aging Network has constructed the following timeline showing how old they would have been when there were critical events or changes in the lives of LGBT people." Starting with the 1920s the events list can be cross-referenced with current GLBT timelines and used as a possible stepping stone to aid Trans projects and awareness.

Feminists for Life potential material

http://www.aboutabortions.com/ quotes to be sourced and used for Feminists for Life article


Jane Roberts, the wife of John Roberts, was a volunteer member of Feminists for Life's board of directors from 1995 to 1999. She has provided legal assistance to the pro-life group and been recognized as a contributor who donated from $1,000 to $2,500. She has written for a newsletter for a pro-life group called 's newsletter, including an article about adoption. Roberts and her husband have adopted two children. Source: Richard A. Serrano, Los Angeles Times Jul 21, 2005


Recognizing that 20 percent of all abortions are performed on college students, Foster launched Feminists for Life's College Outreach Program to provide practical resources for pregnant and parenting students and keeps up a grueling schedule traveling to campuses, where she's remarkably successful in changing students' minds about abortion. Planned Parenthood called Feminists for Life's "Question Abortion" campaign "the newest and most challenging concept in anti-choice student organizing."

Foster sharply criticizes colleges for providing abortions but no other services for pregnant students. "What kind of a choice is that?" she asks. She challenges abortion supporters and pro-lifers to work together to provide real alternatives to women facing crisis pregnancies.

Patricia Heaton, who played Raymond's wife on the hit series Everybody Loves Raymond, is a Feminists for Life celebrity spokesman who loves Foster. She explains that "opponents think [our] group is strong and powerful, because Serrin is strong and powerful. She's the embodiment of what we feel about women. To think that the only thing a woman can do with a child is abort is demeaning to women and undermines everything that the women's movement has been working on since the suffragettes."

Under the banner "Women Deserve Better," Heaton appears in one of Feminists for Life's print ad campaigns that reads: "Every 38 seconds in America a woman lays her body down, feeling forced to choose abortion out of a lack of practical resources and emotional support. Abortion is a reflection that society has failed women. There is a better way."

'It's Not About Me'

By Dan Ewald | Christian Reader Magazine

"She is brazen in her decision to be pro-life in an unabashedly pro-choice town. Patricia is the honorary chairperson of Feminists for Life, a non-religious group that attempts to bring feminism back to its original meaning, which, she says, was about making the world a place where women and children can feel safe and protected and become whom they are to the fullest extent. Since most of her peers connect pro-lifers to a brand of Christian extremism, Patricia appreciates Feminists for Life's method." In my community in Hollywood, FFL is a way to approach the question of feminism and pro-life thinking in a way that people can hear it and don't have a preconceived idea."

verbiage

James Martin, S.J. the U.S. entertainment industry is of "two minds" about the Catholic Church. He argues that,

On the one hand, film and television producers seem to find Catholicism irresistible. There are a number of reasons for this. First, more than any other Christian denomination, the Catholic Church is supremely visual, and therefore attractive to producers and directors concerned with the visual image. Vestments, monstrances, statues, crucifixes - to say nothing of the symbols of the sacraments - are all things that more "word oriented" Christian denominations have foregone. The Catholic Church, therefore, lends itself perfectly to the visual media of film and television. You can be sure that any movie about the Second Coming or Satan or demonic possession or, for that matter, any sort of irruption of the transcendent into everyday life, will choose the Catholic Church as its venue.Benjiboi
