This is a Bill before Congress. It is being reported on by Exodus International. Already the webpage for American Family Association is being blocked and Silenced!

Nothing will keep me from living a life striving to reflect my Lord and Savior! Bring it on, political correctness!

Details, please?
The number and title of the bill you say is before Congress?
A site with the original language as it is being presented to Congress, not someone else's interpretation of it?
If you cannot or will not supply those, why should anyone take you seriously?
EDIT: Y'all, check this out from the poster's source, "Exodus International":
"Exodus is a nonprofit, interdenominational Christian organization promoting the message of Freedom from homosexuality through the power of Jesus Christ.
Within both the Christian and secular communities, Exodus has challenged those who respond to homosexuals with ignorance and fear, and those who uphold homosexuality as a valid orientation. These extremes fail to convey the fullness of redemption found in Jesus Christ, a gift which is available to all who commit their life and their sexuality to Him."
Now, I find that last bit extremely strange, that bit about committing your sexuality to Jesus.
And Black Dragon is correct - the AFA website is NOT blocked. Further, nowhere on the Exodus International site do I find mention of anything in the lead post.
So, put up or shut up.

Give us the bill number, a link to check out, something other than hearsay.
Oh, by the way, I just came from the American Family Association website, it isn't blocked.

I doubt it would pass. Free speech is too important in this country. The American Family Association is an ultra-right wing group that wants to silence other's free speech. I've checked their web-site. If it doesn't agree with them, it's bad. Well, that's not how it's done here.

Religion and politics do not mix. Religion is a belief which is not verifiable and this country is a free society with many systems of belief.
No religious belief is right at the expense of another being wrong, that in itself would be pure narcissism.
The bill you quote here does not exist by the way.

Censorship is never good. Whether by believers or non believers.
do you have a link or other source to verify this? I find it difficult to believe that in the current climate in the USA such a bill would exist.

I could find no blocks on AFA Web page!
What's the number on this Congressional Bill you mention?
But to answer your question... I will continue to live the life of Christ.

No one will ever tell me I can't speak about God. So nothing will change.
