"Men for Christ" Is A Family Event This Year
As the crowd streamed into the auditorium at Faith Baptist Bible College in Ankeny, Iowa, one thing was evident. The Men for Christ rally was going to be a bit different this year, organizers having invited women and children to attend as well. Four hundred people are expected to attend; perhaps there will be more walk-in guests later in the day. Event organizers refer to the family emphasis as a bit of an experiment related to theme, “Biblical Creationism in Your Local Church.”

The European Court of Human Rights also upheld the law in 2006.
