    UPDATED: Fort Worth's Broadway Baptist Church to consider excluding gay couples from member booklet

    Oh geez. Whoremonger? Really? I think they're playing in Deep Ellum tonight.

    This is very unfortunate. These members they ought to be pictured with one another - they are family after all. I wonder if they allow pictures of people who have divorced and remarried (an arrangement Jesus was pretty direct about if I recall)?

    Sometimes the baby steps are very small, but hopefully this won't be a big deal some day soon.

    Gloves are off as Trinity vote looms

    A highway in our flood plain is as visionary as White Rock Lake? D-FW Airport? Now I've heard everything. Highways are a 20th century solution. A highway in a flood plain is not only short-sighted but potentially dangerous and way more expensive no matter how "free" the land is.

    We should not gift Dallas' park or flood plain land to the NTTA for a revenue generating asset that will encourage more driving.

    Invest in mass transit. Invest in great public spaces. Those are the visionary and far-sighted projects. Don't look for every last piece of dirt to put a highway on.

    UPDATEDx2: TrinityVote secures sufficient number of signatures for referendum on construction of toll road

    While it is true that more than just Dallasites will reap the consequences of this project, it is the city issuing bonds for the project, thus the citywide ballot.

    You can thank the residents of Dallas who signed the petition that we have a chance to keep the highway out of a floodplain and out of the park. Is city hall listening?
