One doesn't have to be Jewish or Christian (the history of these faiths being the focus of the museum), nor does one have to be religious to understand there are consequences to the behaviors now on public display.

Here in distant Sri Lanka my attention was drawn to Mr. Millbank's article above by a good friend in America who in the credulity one expects from an incorrigible devotee of the Democratic party seemed highly impressed by his piece.

November 16 2017 By dvirtue BBC Gulag Film Shows Terrible Consequences of Trying to Kill God

In case anyone doubts how purposefully anti-Christian the Soviet regime was, they should watch its 1928 propaganda film about the 1917 Bolshevik 'revolution' in Petrograd (actually it was a seedy coup) - October: Ten Days that shook the world - also now on iplayer.

This silent film proudly depicts the hatred the Bolsheviks had for the Lord Jesus Christ personally.

"Um," he started. "That's the kind of conversation we would have, finding out your story, where you're from, what you believe. Yeah, I mean, God's the judge."

Colorado Christian University's Centennial Institute hosted a rally at its Lakewood campus in defense of Jack Phillips of Masterpiece Cakeshop, who was punished by the state's civil rights commission in 2014 for refusing to make a cake for a same-sex wedding and whose appeal will finally be heard by the United States Supreme Court next month after five years of litigation.

Yet policy makers and the media are doing no favors either to the public or the transgendered by treating their confusions as a right in need of defending rather than as a mental disorder that deserves understanding, treatment and prevention. This intensely felt sense of being transgendered constitutes a mental disorder in two respects.

November 08 2017 By dvirtue Is Britain becoming a Christianophobic country?

Persecution of Christians in Pakistan (from where Amar was forced to flee), the Middle East, China, Nigeria and Modi's India is well documented. Isis has committed genocide in Iraq and Syria, edging Christianity towards extinction. The bloodletting of Egypt's Copts continues. In Pakistan, blasphemy laws are enforced, as in the cause celèbre of Asia Bibi, who remains languishing on death row.

October 30 2017 By dvirtue Here's how Liberal Catholics are slowly destroying Catholicism in America

It's hard to blame the old Protestants for what they did, for they didn't know where this road led. They were pioneers, they were cutting a path in the religious wilderness.
