DON'T PROMOTE MARRIAGE OR TEACH THAT IT IS BETTER THAN HOMOSEXUAL PARTNERSHIPS -- SAY ACADEMICS
"We must never allow freedom of religion to be
hijacked and used as a pretext to discriminate
against gay and lesbian teenagers in schools."
Stephen
Desmond, Thames Valley
University
From This is
London:
Academics are calling for teachers to be banned
from promoting marriage in the classroom.
They say homosexuality must be given equal status to
stop the spread of "bigoted" attitudes in schools and
university campuses.
Current Government guidance on sex education says
children must be taught "the importance of marriage
for family life".
Teachers are also permitted to voice their opposition
to homosexuality if it
MUSLIMS IN THE WEST--40 TO 60 PERCENT WANT TO LIVE UNDER SHARIA LAW
It is critical that the West understand the fundamental beliefs of Islam and its objectives. To fail to do so could lead to our own demise. Here is a recent question and answer with Mark Steyn the author of America Alone on the topic:
"[W]hat would you say to those who believe that majority Islam is not synonymous with fundamentalist Islam?
Mark Steyn: Fundamentalist is a term we use rather carelessly. Very few people take the trouble to become suicide bombers and that's good news, but the reality is that substantial numbers of Muslims agree with the aims of the Jihadists even if they don't choose to blow themselves up. When Muslims in the West are polled, 40 to 60 percent wish to live under Sharia and wish to reside in the United Kingdom and the United States as opposed to Saudi Arabia. They may disagree with Read More...
THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN RELIGIOUS FEELING AND FAITH
"Not everyone who says to me 'Lord, Lord': shall
enter the kingdom of heaven; but he who does the will
of my Father in heaven shall enter the kingdom of
heaven. Many will say to me in that day, 'Lord, Lord
did we not prophesy in thy name, and work many
miracles in thy name?' And then I will declare unto
them, 'I never knew you. Depart from me, you workers
of iniquity!'
Matthew 7:21-23
How can a person who
lacks the true faith, or for that matter lacks
essential truths, appear zealous and dutiful in the
practice of their religion? From the muslim who kills
in the name of allah, to the thrice divorced born
again, or the contracepting Catholic--how can they
appear to be religious while failing to follow God's
commands? I recently stumbled upon an excellent
explanation for this in a book called
Letters To A Mother
by Father
Emmanuel Marie Andre.
"A
religious feeling is...of the natural
order.
A religious feeling is the natural consequence of
being creatures, just as respect for parents is
natural to the child."
"The religious feeling, being natural to man, is
found in all men, faithful and infidels;

BIOLOGICAL SLAVERY--SWEDEN APPROVES EMBRYO SCREENING TO AID DYING SIBLINGS
Swedish authorities have permitted three families to screen embryos in order to create a child that will act as a stem cell donor for a dying sibling.
"Under the procedure, an embryo is tested in vitro for a desired genotype before implantation into the uterus, in what is called pre-implantation genetic diagnosis (PGD). That has been allowed for some time in Sweden, in particular to screen for single-gene diseases such as cystic fibrosis as well as chromosomal abnormalities such as Down's Syndrome. But for the first time, authorities will allow the embryos to be screened to find a tissue match for a sick sibling, in a process called human leukocyte antigen testing (HLA)."
"After the child is born, stem cells from its placenta and umbilical cord are transferred to the sick sibling. Once in the bone marrow, the stem cells will start producing blood cells. These are the first cases in Sweden to be granted the procedure following a law on genetic screening that came into force in July last year. The procedure has been criticized by some who consider the screening process unethical.
Call me negative! I can already see the future headline: "Embryo shopping approved for the dying"--after all --why stop at siblings? It is only a matter of time before master embryos are created which would enable us to shop for a biological slave that could save us from suffering and death.
NEW CALIFORNIA LAW-- KINDERGARTENERS WILL LEARN ABOUT TRANSSEXUALITY, BISEXUALITY AND HOMOSEXUALITY
From Spero: Legislation passed the California senate mandating that school children, starting in kindergarten, learn about sexual deviancy. The bill requires postive portrayals of same-sex marriage, and all other aspects of homosexual and bisexual activity.
New radical legislation, mandating that schoolchildren as young as kindergarten learn about transsexuality, bisexuality and homosexuality, has passed the California State Senate.
SB 777 requires textbooks, instructional materials, and school-sponsored activities to positively portray cross-dressing, sex-change operations, same-sex marriages, all aspects of homosexuality and bisexuality, and so-called "gay history." Silence on these sexual lifestyles will not be allowed.
Yesterday’s vote, 23 to 13, was on a party line -- Democrats for, Republicans against. No Republican senator rose to speak against the bill.
SB 777 would teach these sexual subjects without parental Read More...
PUBLIC OPINION POLLS ON THE BODY AND BLOOD OF JESUS
The poll wielding bullies are at it again.
The Pope believes that Catholic politicians who support abortion rights should be denied communion. Do you agree or disagree?
Agree 23%
Disagree 53%
The arrogance and futility of such a poll borders on hilarity. The topic of the poll is the Body and Blood of the Son of God--the Messiah. It is as if they were asking if the pope's selection of cologne or his choice of sunglasses is proper? The reverence due to the Body and Blood of the Son of God is not subject to public opinion. Nor is anything else that the Church does or does not do.
The issue is authority--which Americans cannot grasp, and which is seen as down-right un-American. The pollsters seek to exert public opinion pressure on the Church in order to make it conform to the world. This has been satan's mission Read More...
ONE NATION SEES LIBERATION AS STERILITY--ANOTHER AS FERTILITY
On one side of the globe we have the FDA approval of yet another contraceptive pill called Lybrel--- an admitted take off on the word "liberty". This new sterility pill is seen as further liberating women by not only preventing pregnancy but also eradicating menstration.
On the other side of the globe we have the Chinese rioting over forced pregnancy testing, forced abortions, forced sterility and the lack of freedom to procreate. One nation sees liberation as sterility, another as fertility. One revels in sterility the other fights to death if necessary for the God given right to procreate.
Lybrel is not synonomous with liberty--despite what its makers and many women may believe. Any Chinese woman of child bearing age could attest to the lack of liberty that has been brought about under the government's forced one-child policy. Rather Lybrel and all other methods of artificial contraception pervert liberty, further enslave the West in sin, and spell demographic doom.
True liberty consists in doing what is in accordance with natural law and God's commands. Dispensing with the natural law and God's commands can never bring about liberty but only fosters license. License is a heedlessness Read More...
A DESPERATE PLEA FROM A PAKISTANI CHRISTIAN CONVERT
Persecution of Christians is intensifying in Pakistan. There seems to be no end to the reports of Muslim on Christian violence. Christians are being driven from their homes, while Islamic legislation that would subject males to a death sentence for conversion to Christianity is gaining acceptance. Pakistan's Christians which comprise only three percent of a population of 160 million may be facing nothing less than elimination and extermination.
I recently received a desperate email from a man who claimed to be a Christian convert in Pakistan. He is desperate to find safety and security from muslims that are aware of his conversion and seek to kill him. He also desires true Christian fellowship. I have decided to publish his emails in the hopes that it will raise our awareness of the dire circumstances that Christians are facing all over the world, and in the hopes that we can assist him. I will let you be the judge as to the authenticity. His emails follow. I have excised his name and address for security Read More...
CHINESE RIOT OVER ONE CHILD POLICY
Villagers and visitors to several counties of Guangxi autonomous region in southwestern China said rioters smashed and burned government offices, overturned official vehicles, and clashed with the riot police in a series of confrontations over the past four days.
They gave varying accounts of injuries and deaths, with some asserting that as many as five people were killed, including three officials responsible for population-control work. A local government official in one of the counties affected confirmed the rioting in an interview by telephone but denied reports of deaths or serious injuries.
The violence appeared to stem from a two-month-long crackdown Read More...
THE DOMINATION OF THE CHURCH BY THE STATE
Separation of church and state is the constant cry from secularists. But this will never suffice. What secularists truly seek is the subjection of Church to the State in all things. It won't be long before the denial of sacraments to certain persons will be seen as a violation of civil rights and tantamount to hate.
This scenario is not a false alarm, but is very real and was predicted by Pope St. Pius X in 1907:
"[I]t is not enough for the modernist school that the State should be separated from the Church...the Church must be subject to the State. This, indeed, modernists may not yet say openly but they are forced by the logic of their position to admit it. For granted the principle that in temporal matters the State possesses the sole power, it will follow that when the believer, not satisfied with merely internal acts of religion, proceeds to external acts --such for instance as the reception or administration of the of the Sacraments --these will fall under the control of the State. What will then become of ecclesiastical authority, which can only be exercised by external acts? Obviously it will be completely under the dominion of the State." Pascendi Gregis
The domination of the State over religion has begun and can be seen in the following: Pharmacists and Catholic hospitals in many states no longer have the right to refuse to dispense abortion drugs based upon conscience. Landlords have no right to refuse tenancy to those who live a lifestyle that violates the landlord's beliefs or principles. Religious employers must provide birth control coverage for its employees. Some Western countries are now prosecuting those who interpret the bible in a "hateful" manner so as to offend homosexuals.
All of these laws have in common the aim to protect sin in the name of civil rights--whether Read More...
SCOTLAND: THE ZEAL OF ATHEISTS AND MUSLIMS TO KILL CATHOLIC SCHOOLS
Behind so much of this animosity is the radical homosexual agenda. Where this agenda is present there is a powerful spirit that is truly anti Jesus Christ. With any degree of proximity to it one can sense the degree of loathing and hatred that led to Christ's death on the cross.
Although these people lack the wisdom of God they do not lack satanic craftiness. This militant atheism has infiltrated the state run public schools. They seek to gain access to the blank slate of children's minds. It is now becoming a standard part of sex education to show children images of homosexual sex. In destroying the innocence of children in the name of tolerance, they are creating a generation that will experiment with homosexuality Read More...
THE VICIOUS CYCLE OF SOCIALISM THAT FUELS DEMOGRAPHIC DOOM
Europe has attempted to halt a demographic crash through socialistic legislation designed to stave off the muslim onslaught and increase its native population. Germany and other countries have begun paying women to have children and also provide nationalized child care. Although well intentioned, wisdom is lacking as to the source and solution. Because these laws are based upon a socialistic agenda, rather than bringing about lasting and necessary changes in the hearts and mind of its people --they will instead deepen the problem.
Paying women to have children is strictly an economic motivator and cannot achieve lasting generational changes that are needed for a society to continue to welcome children. Economic incentives do not make nurturing mothers and committed fathers. A self-giving, sacrificial mindset is required to rear children properly.
The children that are a product of these economic incentives are bought by the state, and then handed back over to the state at six weeks old. This is so mommy and daddy can Read More...
UNLESS THE LORD BUILDS THE HOUSE THERE IS NO HOPE FOR EUROPE
Europe continues down the road of secularization and de-christianization. This from Deutsche Welle: German Chancellor Angela Merkel has said she has "given up hope" of having a reference to Europe's Judeo-Christian heritage enshrined in the new version of the European Union constitution.
Speaking in Brussels on Tuesday at a meeting with religious leaders of the Christian, Jewish and Islamic faiths, Merkel said she "would like to have such a reference in the treaty ... but there are not many chances left."
Merkel, the daughter of a Protestant pastor and the leader of Germany's strongly Catholic CDU party, has been pushing strongly for a reference to Christianity in the new charter. However, any attempt to mention Christianity or God in the treaty has been strictly opposed by secular France, liberal countries such as Sweden and Denmark and by Britain. During the 2004 negotiations on the bloc's original constitution, there were concerns that any religious reference could anger Europe's Muslims and Jews.
Pope Benedict XVI has made it his mission to guard the Christian inheritance that the EU now squanders by deliberate ommission. Cardinal Bertone delivered a message from the Pope at "Together for Europe 2007" --a conference of 250 christian organizations that was held in Stuttgart Germany. Cardinal Bertone stated: 'I would like to mention in a particular way the loss of Europe's Christian memory and heritage, accompanied by a kind of practical agnosticism and religious indifference whereby many Read More...
