Richards Professor of Systematic and Historical Theology at Reformed Theological Seminary in Jackson, Mississippi, beginning 1 January 2012.

Indiana has become the first state to issue a pro-homosexual specialty automobile license plate, raising funds to help the Indiana Youth Group, a homosexual, bi-sexual, and transgender teen recruitment and support center.
Micah Clark, Executive Director of the American Family Association of Indiana, stated:
“You have to question what the BMV [Bureau of Motor Vehicles] was thinking when they approved a license plate for a group which recruits teens into the homosexual lifestyle. Since health risks do not seem to matter, what is to prevent a cigar club from now getting a license plate from the BMV?
“State agencies should be neutral in the politically charged culture war especially the promotion of homosexuality among minors. It is very disappointing that Indiana is the first state in the nation to have a license plate celebrating youth involved in homosexual behaviors.”

[3] Kuwaiti Prince Professes Faith in Jesus Christ
The Christian Arabic television station Al-haqiqa recently broadcast an audio file attributed to Kuwaiti Prince Abdollah Al-sabah, a Kuwaiti royal family member, where the prince professed faith in Jesus Christ saying:
“First of all, I totally agree with the distribution of this audio file and I now declare that if they kill me because of this audio file, then I’ll go into the presence of Jesus Christ and be with him for all eternity.
“I’m satisfied with whatever they do to me, because the truth in the Bible has guided me to the right way.”
Al-haqiqa also said that the prince recently denounced his Islamic faith and became a Christian.

The Urban Infidel blogger reported 17 January 2011 that the design for the planned King Abdullah International Gardens in Saudi Arabia Bears an uncanny resemblance to the Flight 93 – 9 September 2001 National Memorial in Shanksville, Pennsylvania, which purportedly honors the heroes of Flight 93 who forced the hijackers of the airplane to crash the airplane into a field in southwestern Pennsylvania before the plane could be crashed into a building such as the White House or the U.S. Capitol in Washington DC.
The Flight 93 National Memorial is in the shape of a Muslim crescent and star, a symbol of Muslim empire since the 12th century, the central point of which points to the Islamic holy city of Mecca in Saudi Arabia.
