Random links of interest, concern or curiosity from the past week or so, that deserve at least a SHORT mention:
Greenpeace accused of substitute reef ruse ~ Because the only way the progressive Leftists can ever advance their totalitarian agenda is through deceit.
Sexual Ethics in the Koran and in the Obama Administration; Disturbing studies in comparative religion ~ Obama and his fellow progressive tyrants are so intent on pushing their amorality on the rest of the world that they refuse to help Nigerians who hold traditional Christian values (pro-family) repel the murdering rapists of Boko Haram ~
If the West cherishes freedom for gays and homosexual unions and abortion and contraception, suppose Africans are not wired that way. For the African, life is sacred. And that the world can watch hundreds of people dying in Nigeria every day and look away: it shows that even what we call Western civilization today is sick. What we say about human dignity and human rights is mere hypocrisy. There is a diminishing sense of the respect for the sanctity of life. And all of this is to be imposed on Africa, at whatever cost: we think that it is immoral and that it is unjust.
~ Nigerian Bishop Emmanuel Badejo
“National Association for the Abortion of Colored People” Forgets Free Speech Is a Civil Right ~ (Great headline!) Ryan Bomberger and his “Radiance Foundation” celebrate a court decision affirming that parody is still considered free speech. The NAACP really needs to stop the grievance mongering and get on the right side of history.
Ireland ‘defied God’ by voting for gay ‘marriage’: Cardinal Burke ~ Finally, at least one Catholic leader has the courage to boldly speak the truth!
“I mean, this is a defiance of God. It’s just incredible. Pagans may have tolerated homosexual behaviours, they never dared to say this was marriage.” […]
During the same Oxford visit, but during a homily at a Mass the day before, Burke called marriage between a man and woman a “fundamental truth” that has been “ignored, defied, and violated.”
Burke warned during the homily of the dangers of “various ideological currents” and of “human deception and trickery which strives to lead us into error.”
I mentioned the president’s audacious insinuation that many Americans were in need of reprogramming a couple weeks ago ~
Obama Rips Fox: ‘We’re Going to Have to Change How the Media Reports’ ~ Just who the hell does Obama think he is? Stalin? Castro? Hitler?
“… we’re going to have to change how our body politic thinks, which means we’re going to have to change how the media reports on these issues, and how people’s impressions of what it’s like to struggle in this economy looks like. And how budgets connect to that. And that’s a hard process because that requires a much broader conversation than typically we have on the nightly news.”
And if that doesn’t work, maybe he’ll start to emulate Kim Jong-un…
North Korea Defence Chief Hyon Yong-chol ‘executed’ ~
North Korea’s Defence Minister Hyon Yong-chol has been executed for showing disloyalty to leader Kim Jong-un, South Korea’s spy agency has told parliament.
MPs were told Mr Hyon was killed on 30 April by anti-aircraft fire in front of an audience of hundreds, the Yonhap news agency reports.
Or perhaps Belgium’s radical Muslims ~
Islamists Threaten Antwerp Mayor: Convert to Islam or Be ‘Executed’
Mental Health’s LGBT Blind Spot ~ Thought-provoking article that should make progressives reconsider the implications of SSM and the homosexual agenda – any of them who are willing to take off their LGBT blinders that is.
A ‘bulletproof’ cross rises in Karachi ~ Bold move in a 90% Muslim country where, in many areas, Christians face severe persecution ~
Pakistani businessman Parvez Henry Gill says he was sleeping when God crashed into one of his dreams and gave him a job: find a way to protect Christians in Pakistan from violence and abuse. “I want you to do something different,” God told him.
He said he hopes the cross encourages more Christians to remain in Pakistan, perhaps even achieving the same success that his family found.
The Occult Is Trending on Social Media; And one Catholic school priest has a warning for his students ~ No joke. This “Charlie-Charlie” Ouija board phenom is scary stuff. When Hell Has a Hashtag ~
Listen up, folks. It doesn’t matter who made up this game, how, or why. Only a fool would play it, and you should make sure your kids know this. I’ve said it before: Satan isn’t fussy.
The Christian Nation Of Poland Just Opened Its Borders For Christians Who Are Being Persecuted By Muslims ~ Thank God someone’s willing to do this; our anti-Christian president certainly won’t lift a finger to help.
