Producer's Desk — homosexuality

What is “The Producer’s Desk”?

As you know, Richard Land LIVE! is a once-a-week broadcast. This is fine and good, but some of us are—let’s be honest—borderline ‘addicts’ when it comes to reading the news and blogs. Fear not! This is where the Producer’s Desk fills that Sunday-through-Friday void when RLL is not broadcasting.

Subscribe to this feed in your news-reader or email and read what Richard and the Richard Land LIVE! producers are reading throughout the week! (Hint: It may inform what you hear on the Saturday live broadcast.)

We hope you enjoy!

GetReligion.org astutely covers the media as they cover declining birth rates in Europe.

“The average number of births per women to maintain a country’s population level is 2.1. A 2002 report showed that birthrates in southern and Eastern Europe had dropped below 1.3. That means that — all else equal — the country’s population will be halved in 45 years and will never be able to recover.”

More info on birthrate decline around the globe at The Death of Liberalism.

A Texas self-defense case makes headlines in UK newspaper: “A jury in Texas has refused to indict a man who shot dead two men he suspected of burgling a neighbour’s* house.” ( * = UK spelling) :-)
Anglican Traditionalists reject pro-homosexual theology but seeks to remain in fellowship with greater Anglican Communion.

BONUS:

The good folks at Lifeway Research lend thoughtful analysis to Pew’s recent report on American religion and provide their own data to boot.
