Christians outraged by orders to teach 'other faiths'

Christians outraged by orders to teach 'other faiths'
the U.K.’s official education inspector told an independent Christian school that it is out of step with “British values” prescribed by the government and must invite someone from another faith, such as a Muslim imam, to lead assemblies or it risks being closed. The threat comes amid a series of new school inspections imposed by the government in response to a “Trojan horse” scandal in which several public schools in Birmingham, England, were taken over by Muslim managers who imposed Islamic education standards. 

hey, islam teaches about other faiths... at least how to kill them...

Pastors Being Jailed For Preaching Against Homosexuality

Pastors of Houston, Shout It From the Rooftops This Sunday
I urge every pastor in the city of Houston to address the issues of homosexuality and transgenderism this Sunday, announcing this for the entire world to hear but at the same time, refusing to obey the unrighteous decree of Mayor Parker's office to turn your sermons over for government scrutiny. (This should be done respectfully, in the spirit of Acts 4:19-20; 5:28-29.)  

Houston's lesbian mayor turns tyrant
Rev. Jesse Lee Peterson calls Christians to 'take the fight to the enemy'.

McHugh, the Distinguished Service Professor of Psychiatry at Johns Hopkins Hospital said that transgenderism is a “mental disorder.” 

Houston Mayor Totally Didn’t Mean That Subpoena Thing, You Guys
Houston's mayor did, indeed, issue an incredibly broad subpoena request for basically everything every church in Houston has ever said from its pulpit over the course of her transgender bathroom law's legislative journey.

Why Tony Blair is a gay icon
They are individuals who have contributed a great deal in the fight for gay rights. Whether that be visibility, championing equality or defending the dignity of those with HIV and Aids.

Brand-new call: No marriage licenses for anyone
Idaho state Sen. Steve Vick says one U.S. city’s efforts to force a Christian wedding chapel to perform homosexual marriages in his state is a blatant violation of the Constitution, and he is seriously considering legislation to get the state government out of marriage entirely because he fears churches will be the next target in the aggressive homosexual agenda.

Cybersecurity Adviser Admits Biometric-ID to Replace Passwords

US Government Quietly Working On A 666 Plan? Obama’s Cybersecurity Adviser Just Admitted Biometric-ID That Employs Head And Hand Scanning Will Replace Passwords "For Safety’s Sake" 
The days of using a password to access a bank account or cellphone will soon be a thing of the past, President Obama’s top cybersecurity adviser said Thursday. The risk of getting hacked by criminals has grown so widespread that far more sophisticated identification technology — including biometric head and hand scanning devices — will become the norm. “You’ve started to see some of that with the emergence of the fingerprint readers,” said Mr. Daniel, adding that the technology will become increasingly mainstream as cellphone cameras, “hard” card readers and other authentication gadgets replace the annoying process for millions of Americans of punching in a password to confirm their identity. Since passwords can so easily be hacked, a variety of new technologies will provide more protection and some “will be biometric related,” he said. Features like fingerprint scanners on phones are popular because consumers believe such advancements will protect them from government intrusions on their private data

Pedophilia Laws Are Too Mean To Those Who Want To Rape Children

Really? Know We’re Going To Blame Paedophilia On A Genetic Disposition?Add paedophilia to the growing list of genetically-determined attractions, preferences and predispositions. In a New York Times op-ed, a law professor from Rutgers University contends that paedophilia is not a matter of choice. Margo Kaplan writes that: “Recent research, while often limited to sex offenders — because of the stigma of pedophilia — suggests that the disorder may have neurological origins. Pedophilia could result from a failure in the brain to identify which environmental stimuli should provoke a sexual response. MRIs of sex offenders with pedophilia show fewer of the neural pathways known as white matter in their brains. Men with pedophilia are three times more likely to be left-handed or ambidextrous, a finding that strongly suggests a neurological cause. Some findings also suggest that disturbances in neurodevelopment in utero or early childhood increase the risk of pedophilia.”

US Pedophilia Laws Are Too Mean To Those Who Want To Rape Children, Says NYTThe nation’s tough anti-pedophilia laws are unfair to pedophiles, according to an op-ed published by The New York Times’ editors. “One can live with pedophilia and not act on it,” says Margo Kaplan, an entrepreneurial assistant law professor at Rutgers University, and a former lawyer for the American Civil Liberties Union. Tragically, the roughly 1 percent of “people who are sexually attracted to children] must hide their disorder from everyone they know — or risk losing educational and job opportunities, and face the prospect of harassment and even violence,” she wrote. Kaplan is trying to make a legal career in the regulation of expanding sexual diversity, instead of routine and lower-status practice areas, such as torts, probate, crime or copyrights. She’s focused on “legal limitations on intimate decisions, particularly the use of criminal law in areas of health and sexuality,” according to her web page.

Bioethics Push Poll To Allow Killing People For Organs

Bioethics Push Poll To Allow Killing People For OrgansTo donate vital organs, a donor must be dead. This is known as the “dead donor rule, I have been warning that utilitarian bioethicists and transplant medical professionals want to shatter the DDR to permit killing living living profoundly cognitively disabled patients for their organs. Now, we see what appears to me to be a push poll type question in a study measuring popular support for such a change in the law. A push poll seeks to obtain a desired answer by the way the question is framed. Here is the question from “Abandoning the Dead Donor Rule?” in the Journal of Medical Ethics: "Jason has been in a very bad car accident. He suffered a severe head injury and is now in the hospital. As a result of the injury, Jason is completely unconscious...

Dear Home-Schooler: They Are Coming For Your Children

Dear Home-Schooler: They Are Coming For Your Children 
Home-schoolers represent the only authentically radical social movement in the United States (Occupy Wall Street was a fashion statement) and so they must be suppressed, as a malevolent committee of leftist academics and union bosses under the direction of Governor Dannel Malloy is preparing to do in Connecticut, using the Sandy Hook massacre as a pretext. The ghouls invariably rush to the podium after every school massacre, issuing their insipid press releases before the bodies have even cooled, and normally they’re after your guns. But the Malloy gang is after your children. Malloy’s committee on the Newtown shootings is recommending that Connecticut require home-schooling families to present their children to the local authorities periodically...

Could A Zombie Apocalypse Actually Happen?

Could A Zombie Apocalypse Actually Happen? 
Usually this is something that people only have to worry about in horror movies, but could a zombie apocalypse physically happen in the real world? Admittedly it is not something that should keep you awake at night, but we wondered whether it is scientifically possible for our world to become infected with a zombie virus. With this in mind we set about asking some of the world’s leading zombie experts their opinion on how likely it is to expect a zombie invasion to reach our shores. An illness also known as bovine spongiform encephalopathy, or BSE for short, Mad Cow Disease is a virus that attacks a cow’s nervous system, causing it to act strangely and lose control of its natural ability to do normal things, essentially becoming mentally ill. The infection causes a cow’s brain to waste away and is believed to come from contaminated food given to cows. David Youngquist, president of Dark Continents Publishing, said: “A zombie apocalypse could happen. I’m honestly surprised something like this hasn’t happened already.


Being that people are already acting irrationally, how much would it take for a virus like Mad Cow or Rabies to mutate and infect the brains of humans on a massive scale?

Did Satan Worshippers Open A Portal At “Satan’s Hollow”?

Did Satan Worshippers Open A Portal At “Satan’s Hollow”?Paranormal groups claim to have found a “doorway to hell” in suburban America — and it has become a real nightmare for local homeowners. Legend has it that the storm drain, tucked in the woods behind an apartment complex in Blue Ash, Cincinnati, was once a gathering ground for Satanists who managed to open a portal into the netherworld. The folklore is so pervasive that the supposedly haunted tunnel system, also known as “Satan’s Hollow”, has become a hotspot for local teenagers and ghost enthusiasts. “It’s rough on the homeowners,” Blue Ash Police Lieutenant Steve Schueler told WCPO. “People park in their driveway and try to get into the drainage system and nobody likes that. (The owner) has had to chase off some people, for sure.” Visitors commonly claim to hear screams coming from the drain system, or see floating faces in the darkness.

Gay Agenda Foreshadows Mark Of Beast

Charisma Mag: Gay Agenda Foreshadows Mark Of BeastThe book of Revelation, in speaking of the end of days, indicates that one of the goals of the anti-Christ in his campaign to establish his own twisted caliphate over the entire world will be to drive Christians out of business altogether. In John's vision, any Christian who does not willingly accept the mark of the beast will not be allowed to buy or to sell. He'll be fired, or won't be hired, or will be drummed out of business entirely. So what is this mark of the beast today? That's easy. It's the gay rainbow. This is the rainbow Big Gay has stolen from the Bible and from the church and turned into its own twisted symbol of perversion. Anyone who does not plaster homosexual rainbow stickers all over himself, his resume and the windows of his business will have his or her commercial interests terminated with extreme prejudice.

Which Religions Would Have The Hardest Time Accepting Alien Life?

At Scientific American, Clara Moskowitz has the transcript from a recent interview with Weintraub, in which they discuss the implications of extraterrestrial life on humanity's assorted religious sensibilities. Here's Weintraub on the difficulties that could be faced by religions that see humans as the sole focus of God's attention: "The religions that see the world through that viewpoint tend to be some of the Christian evangelicals. The Eastern Orthodox Church, a branch of Catholicism, also has that view. There are some people who claim that if God had created extraterrestrials, then there clearly would be words in the Old and New testaments, which we would have already found, that would have said explicitly that God created extraterrestrials—and since those words don't exist, there can't be. Well, there's nothing in the Old and New testaments that talks about telephones either, and telephones do seem...
