For the update. We'll be ready :

I'll be putting that event on the dynamic calendar ( an existent function just not turned on - this iteration of Scoop was developed, like CivicSpace, with political campaigns in mind  ) or static event list, if we chose to use that approach.

I've actually discovered what satellite network is responsible for covering the Justice Sunday stuff. It's a network called Sky Angel (which features dominionist-friendly-only programming including radio and TV satellite feeds of dominionist networks and stations-the particular dominionist group I walked away from is involved in it via Sky Angel carrying Voice of Hope Jerusalem (presently operated by High Adventure Ministries, which is a front group for the specific church I left); the only four secular channels carried at all on Sky Angel are Fox News, HGTV, Hallmark Channel, and Hallmark Movie Channel).

Sky Angel's parent company is Dominion Video Satellite (and no, I do NOT think the name is coincidental); Sky Angel does not appear to own any satellites itself but rather rents satellite space from Dish Network's EchoStar satellite system.

This listing gives one an example of the fun sorts of stuff produced by Sky Angel's partners-including, notably, both Justice Sunday broadcasts (so it's extremely likely Sky Angel will be carrying the third one, too). They're even kind enough to post interactive schedules on their website (and I, as a walkaway, am kind enough to post the link not requiring you to register with them :3) which are supposedly good two weeks in advance.

In fact, they're even nice enough to brag about their involvement in the previous Justice Sundays, down to reminding us all that they were carried on Angel Two (an in-house channel used by Sky Angel for their own original programming, just like your cable or satellite service has their in-house production channels).

Needless to say, we should DEFINITELY be able to find out some hard info on Justice Sunday III within about two weeks of the 8th, if only because they have to list it in their channel listings :3  (Unless they're REALLY going for stealth, in which case that's a good sign they're running scared from SOMETHING.)

By the way, do you have any intel on which specific megachurch in Philly is hosting Justice Sunday III?  (Among other things, there's some of us who'd like to do research on the church, and also to prepare to protest such electioneering.)

I am extremely curious to know who will be speaking at this third version of "Just Us Sunday."

In particular, I wonder which top Republican with ethical problems will be there. Bill Frist did the first one (now under investigation). Tom DeLay did the second one (then under investigation, now indicted).

Hmmm ... how about Roy Blunt
