Is religious persecution coming to Scotland?
While liberal politicians in America have been attacking the freedoms of speech and religion that Americans enjoy, over on the east side of the Atlantic Ocean, liberal politicians in Scotland have been threatening people’s ability to openly express their faith-shaped beliefs. The Catholic News Agency has published an article titled “New Scottish bishop could see [...]
Now can we call them anti-Christian?
I don’t know how else to square the logic: Given his stance on Chick-fil-A, would Mayor Tom Menino grant permits to a group that has counted among its leaders a man who has repeatedly called homosexuality a “crime that must be punished” by death? Actually, he has done that . . . and more! Menino effectively gave away city land [...]
False narratives and fascism
As always, Elizabeth Scalia (aka The Anchoress) has thoughts worth reading on the Chick-Fil-A scandal: “If You’re Not Sure, This Is How Fascism Works.” Her argument is multi-faceted, but mainly focuses on a subject I covered here a few days ago, which is that Chick-Fil-A president Don Cathy never mentioned “gays” or “gay marriage” during [...]
VIDEO: Obama’s ‘Bullying Czar,’ A Hater Extraordinaire
The man’s name is Dan Savage and he’s supposed to be leading President Obama’s anti-bullying, pro-tolerance effort. Yet, at an April High School rally in California from the podium, Savage, a homosexual, started calling Christians “pansies” and “morons,” and said the Bible was “bullshit.” Savage also said the Bible pushes a pro-slavery message. So much [...]
Berkeley Storm Troopers: Don’t Write What The Police Don’t Like or Else
If police chiefs send armed officers to a journalist’s door because he didn’t like what was written abut him, would you feel just a tad uncomfortable as an American at the audacity? This is no academic discussion because it really happened. Not in what liberals may claim is the dangerous, intolerant south but instead in [...]
“The assault has become so nakedly partisan and opportunistic”
Obama could help end this… but something tells me that’s not on his mind… instead, he and his ideological cohorts think they smell blood in the water: Conservative talk radio host Rush Limbaugh is being targeted by multiple death threats after President Barack Obama and the Democratic Party ignored his apology for controversial remarks and [...]
NOW President: Bishops assault on women’s rights will kill women
And the Bishops are teaming with Republicans to plan these eventual murders: The collusion of House Speaker John Boehner (R-Ohio) and the U.S. Conference of Catholic Bishops has led to an open declaration of war on the women of this country. The bishops have long sought to enshrine into law those policies of the Catholic [...]
Leftist’s Hate on Full Display Over Breitbart’s Passing
It is sad that to be a left-winger is to be a hatemonger, but the death of conservative media activist Andrew Breitbart has certainly brought out those true colors of the left. The giddiness displayed and cheering indulged by America’s leftists over the fact that Mr. Breitbart died late Wednesday night has been shrill, disgusting, [...]
Liberal Hate
Liberalism comes in two forms, each having its own origin. Material (or fiscal) liberalism is born out of the desire to avoid competing for resources, goods and services. Social liberalism is born out of the desire to do whatever is emotionally pleasing. The post that follows pertains specifically to social liberalism. * * * * [...]
How Liberalism Harms Churches
Occasionally, members of the religious left do something that gets reported in the national news. The latest example of such is featured in the FOXNews.com story “Presbyterian minister censured for officiating same-sex marriages”. The story states the following: The General Assembly Permanent Judicial Commission of the Presbyterian Church (U.S.A.) ruled in a 9-6 verdict issued [...]
‘If they wanted “that garbage” they knew where to look’
Imagine that… there were leftists upset about the John 3:16 commercial aired during the Broncos/Patriots game over the weekend. Melinda Henneberger at the Washington Post: Though not exactly a Benetton commercial – I think I spied one black girl in the crowd at the end – was there anything wrong with a pitch that verbally, anyway, [...]
“They [Catholics and others] will either have to change their views…”
“… or be treated in the same way that white supremacists and the segregationist Senators were treated.” That from a constitutional law professor at prominent law school when asked about Same Sex Marriage (SSM). Chilling but only surprising to those not paying attention. Robert George at Mirror of Justice with details: One of my superstar [...]
“Beware, America. The Muslims are coming, and they look and act suspiciously like you.”
That’s the opening line from a WaPo piece announcing an Arab-American comedy tour aimed at combating what the comics are calling Islamophobia. Hmmm. When I see any accusatory word whose suffix is phobia, I’m immediately suspicious. Usually those throwing such words about are those who are also throwing an agenda at us. But I digress… [...]
“I think he’s a disgrace, I think he’s an embarrassment”
The video below gives ample evidence of Bill Press’ visceral hatred for Tim Tebow. Listen to Press initially saying that Tebow ought to STFU (Shut The F**k Up) about his faith, going on to call Tebow a disgrace and an embarrassment. You’re quite the class act Mr. Press… quite the class act:
Fallon Fallin’ Short
Last night, I did something I’ve never done before — and don’t expect to ever do again. I recorded Jimmy Fallon’s late-night show, and just watched it to see if he’d bring up the fiasco when Michele Bachmann was on the previous night. Just in case you missed it, she was played on stage by [...]
First they came for Catholic conscience
William J. Cox, president and CEO of the California-based Alliance of Catholic Health Care, testified before a Congressional committee this past week particularly as it relates to the Obama administration’s attempt to counter a conscience clause when mandating contraception and sterilization coverage by including a narrow religious exemption that in effect hamstrings Catholic institutions and [...]
If you think it’s simply about Gay Marriage…
… then understand that you’re not thinking critically. You’re emoting. And there’s a deleterious effect on society the more people emote like you’re emoting: Toleration is not enough. Neutrality is not enough. If I say, “Your sins are less than my own, I will not judge you, go your way in peace.” That is not [...]
“Who is trying to force their beliefs on whom?”
They really don’t just want our tolerance: Rose Marie Belforti is a town clerk in Ledyard, New York who refused to sign a marriage license in August for two women after the state enacted the Marriage Equality Act in July. The two women, Katie Carmichael and Deirdre DiBiaggio, don’t even live in New York; they own seasonal property in a nearby [...]
Catholic University “probably acting with malice”… for being Catholic
There was a time when something like this would be dismissed out of hand: A DC-area legal activist has filed a federal human rights complaint against the Catholic University of America (CUA) for acting “probably with malice” against Muslim students for having Catholic imagery in all of its rooms that would hinder Muslim prayer – [...]
Susan Sarandon: Astoundingly ignorant of history or brutally prejudiced?
David Wolpe at the Washington Post is wondering: A Nazi is someone who believes large segments of humanity should be brutally, summarily slaughtered. A Nazi is someone who promoted, or now would applaud, the murder of six million Jews, and laments that the killing was not more comprehensive. A Nazi is not someone who condemns [...]
It’s only going to get worse
An honors student at a high school in Fort Worth Texas is suspended for three days. His crime? Stating within earshot of a reactionary activist teacher that homosexuality is wrong. Welcome to the new tolerance: Watch the latest video at video.foxnews.com
Is this really America?
I would really like to believe that this is satirical… that it’s attempting to make some larger point that I’m simply missing: An Orange County couple has been ordered to stop holding a Bible study in their home on the grounds that the meeting violates a city ordinance as a “church” and not as a [...]
Hate speech idiocy
It’s running amok in England: Teachers are branding thousands of children racist or homophobic following playground squabbles. More than 20,000 pupils aged 11 or younger were last year put on record for so-called hate crimes such as using the word ‘gaylord’. Some of them are even from nursery schools where children are no older than [...]
Who Wants To Shoot Sarah Palin?
Come on, admit it. Deep in your heart of hearts, there’s a part of you that would just love to take a shotgun to Sarah Palin. Or Newt Gingrich. Or Bill O’Reilly. Just pump a round into the chamber and blow them away. Now you can! Or, at least, a virtual version of them. [...]
Lefty Tolerance: "We Hated Reagan"
The sudden and convenient amnesia of the left as regards their new found respect for Reagan must not be allowed to pass unmentioned, and my hat is off to Mr. Duboff for reminding folks that Reagan was the left's favorite punching bag for decades.
