That Bastard knows no bounds of decency and money is not an object to prevent him traveling wherever he wants to spread his vitriolic message. Perhaps Wales will have the balls to stop him since we do not.

The Chinese philosophy of feng shui is over 3,000 years old, but still carries weight to this day. At the core of the feng shui teachings is the belief that everything in the universe is comprised of complementary equals – the yin representing female qualities and the yang being the male qualities. The Chinese refer to this as the yin-yang theory. We have night, but we also have day. We have work, but we also have play. It is also called the law of the unity of opposites.

The campaign against homosexuality included 'Anni's story', a video detailing one young women's story of how her faith helped her to stop being bisexual.

A Christian campaign against homosexuality has caused a rise in the number of resignations from the Lutheran Church. Some 500 people resigned on Tuesday, compared to the usual average of 50 for this time of year, according to the online church-resignation service Eroakirkosta.fi.

The number of resignations rose on Monday evening, and on Tuesday the number increased substantially. After six o’clock on Tuesday evening the number of resignations hit one every minute.

The reason for the rise is clear, according to the Eroakirkosta.fi press officer Johanna Sauna-aho.

“We’ve received a lot of feedback, which gives the reason for people’s resignation as this campaign," said Sauna-aho.

Christian organizations publicized the Älä alistu ('don't submit') campaign, which warns young people against homosexuality. The campaign included 'Anni's story', a video detailing one young women's story of how her faith helped her to stop being bisexual. In one video she compares her situation to that of a reformed murderer.

The campaign was not organized by the Evangelical Lutheran Church, which is the official name for the national church of Finland, but it is supported by several organizations that receive funds from the Church’s tax revenues. Members of the church pay tax to support its activities, and according to Sauna-aho, this was one reason many people gave for their resignation.

The Church said earlier on Tuesday that it did not believe that the campaign could lead to resignations.

The Finnish Lutheran Evangelical Association and the Finnish Lutheran Mission, who receive money from the church’s tax revenue, helped fund the campaign. Other organizers included the Finnish branch of the International Fellowship of Evangelical Students, the Finnish Bible Studies youth division, the Missionary and humanitarian aid fund, and the Finnish Luther fund.

Following an online petition and a wave of complaints, Apple has removed a so-called "gay cure" app from its App Store.

Launched last month by Exodus International, a ministry that encourages gay people to seek "cures" for their homosexuality, the app triggered a huge outcry from Two Wins Out, a nonprofit group with the stated goal of fighting anti-gay religious extremism.

Pointing out that any therapy or cures to change one's sexual orientation have been soundly rejected by all the major medical associations. TWO launched an online petition at Change.org calling on Apple to remove the app. Over the course of a couple of days, the petition received signatures from more than 150,000 people, while the app itself was strongly condemned by most reviews in the App Store.

Confirming the app's removal today, Apple spokesman Tom Neumayr told CNET that Apple pulled the app from the App Store because "it violates our developer guidelines by being offensive to large groups of people."

TWO and Change.org both praised Apple today for its decision to remove the app.

"Apple made a wise and responsible decision to dump an offensive app that demonized gay and lesbian people," Wayne Besen, executive director of Truth Wins Out, said in a statement. "The real winners today are LGBT youth who are safer and less at risk for receiving Exodus' malice and misinformation."

Apple made the same decision late last year over an app from the Manhattan Declaration that gay rights groups dubbed anti-gay. Following a petition on Change.org condemning the app, Apple removed it from the App Store, citing the same reason of violating guidelines by offending large groups of people.

CNET contacted Exodus International several times seeking comment on Apple's decision but was unable to reach anyone. However, the company's president, Alan Chambers, registered his disapproval over the decision earlier on Twitter by calling it "incredibly disappointing" and telling people to watch out because it "could happen to you."
