Government’s Vadera Takes Sides on Abortion

0

A Government minister is speaking at a pro-abortion conference this week, contrary to a statement in today’s Observer that ‘the government would not get drawn into the forthcoming political battle over abortion.’

Shriti, Baroness Vadera, Parliamentary Under-Secretary of State for International Development, and a crony of Gordon Brown, is set to deliver a speech at the ‘Global Safe Abortion’ conference on Tuesday, run by abortion multinational Marie Stopes International.

A Whitehall source told the Observer: “Our position has been, is and will continue to be that it’s a matter for Parliament.”

But Stephen Green, National Director of Christian Voice, said that position had been undermined by Baroness Vadera’s attendance.  ‘By permitting Shriti Vadera to turn up at such a high-profile event promoting abortion on demand, the Government has done just what they said they wouldn’t do – they have been drawn into the battle and have allied themselves to abortion-on-demand extremists,’ he said.

The move comes as the Archbishop of Canterbury expressed anger over the way abortion is being treated as normal.  ‘We are losing our moral focus’ over the issue, he said.

Stephen Green said: ‘It is especially disturbing to have a Government spokeswoman of Indian origin supporting abortion on demand given the abuses of abortion in India . Selective foeticide has resulted in a gender imbalance of 80 girls being born for every 100 boys.  Clearly the Hindu dowry system is partly to blame, but abortion on demand in India is the evil which allows such an injustice to be done.  For Shriti Vadera to go and support abortion on demand knowing about the misogyny it encourages in India is simply callous.’

Christian Voice is planning to distribute a leaflet condemning the practice of abortion in the area surrounding the Queen Elizabeth II conference centre during the conference.

Megamosque Prayer Next Saturday 6th October 2007

0

A morning prayer meeting at the proposed megamosque site in West Ham, London E15.

Prayer changes things.  Or rather, God changes things in answer to prayer.  Less than a week after our September prayer meeting, the Times published an article showing how the hardline Muslim Deobandi sect, of which the group behind the megamosque forms part, is in charge of almost half of Britain’s mosques:

Tablighi Jamaat, the group concerned, went on a charm offensive in July.

But Tablighi Jamaat was founded by a Deobandi scholar and it is undeniable that they are part of the Deobandi school.

Despite bizarre UK government denials, Tablighi Jamaat sponsors and encourages terrorism here and abroad.  Several British Muslim bombers have attended its schools and mosques. (See this report.)

In the UK , Tablighi Jamaat has virtually taken over the town of Dewsbury , the location of its European headquarters, complete with mosque and Islamic teaching school or ‘madrassa’.  The mosque was built with the Saudi money of the World Muslim League (see just above ‘Wolf in Sheep’s Clothing’ in this article)

With the threat of a planning application for the megamosque any day now, the need for prayer at the site, which is less than a mile from the 2012 Olympic village, is urgent.  Certainly, one can pray in church or at home, but the act of going to the site has a spiritual dimension.  It focuses our prayer and the effort of going shows God our prayer is serious, an important matter when we are praying for miracles.  And we believe our prayer is having results.  It is being felt in the existing mosque, a collection of old industrial buildings, and our prayers for confusion have, we believe, already disrupted the megamosque plans. We have also prayed in support of local councillor Alan Craig, whom the Lord has placed in Newham’s council chamber for just such a time as this. (See ‘Fears grow over Mega Mosque’)

Where and When: Meet outside West Ham Station from 10.00am to move off at 10.30am sharp on Saturday 6th October.  We shall finish around 12.30.  West Ham is between 20 minutes and half-an-hour from stations like Liverpool Street , Kings Cross and Paddington on the Hammersmith & City Line, Victoria on the District Line, Stratford , Waterloo and London Bridge on the Jubilee Line, and is on the Essex-bound line out of  Fenchurch Street . If you go to multimap and enter E15 3BN you can see West Ham Station and the actual mosque site to the north-west of the station.  Those coming from the west on the District line see the site on the left approaching the station. If you are late coming to West Ham, turn right and right again out of the station, walk a short way down Manor Road, cross the roundabout, turn right under the ‘Greenway’ sign onto a path, go left up the steps, then left again at the top.

We shall be overlooking the site, planning to praise the Lord Jesus Christ, seek the Lord for the United Kingdom, proclaim Christ’s Lordship over our land, bring our broken nation and its suffering people before Him, pray for justice and righteousness, peace and mercy, and for national repentance.  We may even blow a shofar!  Love for God and for our neighbour is what motivates us, so while we shall pray against Islam, we shall also pray for salvation for Muslims and for them to be brought into the kingdom of God by faith in the incarnate Son of God, the crucified, risen, ascended Lord Jesus Christ.

Finally please pray for good numbers to attend and please seek the Lord about coming yourself to the megamosque prayer morning.

Read Deut 5:6-21, 8:19; Psalm 10:16-18, 80:3-7; Isa 42:8, 56:1; Matt 4:10, 6:33; Rev 7:9-17, 19:1-16.

Bloody Bible Ad Reprinted in Humanist Rag

0

The Gay Police Association’s notorious ‘Bloody Bible’ advertisement, condemned last year by the Advertising Standards Authority, has been re-run in a homosexual magazine, leading to a renewed complaint to the ASA from the organisation Christian Voice.

The ad, which depicted a Bible and a pool of blood under the headline ‘in the name of the father’, claimed a 74% increase in ‘homophobic incidents’ in a year, giving the impression that Christians were subjecting homosexuals to bloody attacks.

Responding to a string of complaints, the Advertising Standards Authority discovered that the Gay Police Association, a recognised police staff association in receipt of thousands of pounds of taxpayers’ money, could not provide any figures to substantiate its preposterous claims. In October 2006 the ASA upheld complaints against the GPA on the grounds of decency, lack of substantiation, and crucially, truthfulness.

But now the advert has re-appeared in full colour on the back page of the Summer 2007 edition of the ‘Gay Humanist Quarterly’ which is distributed widely within the homosexual network and was on open display earlier this month at the Cardiff ‘Mardi Gras’.

In the advertisement, with only the figure changed from last year’s version, the GPA claims a ‘75% increase’ in ‘homophobic incidents, where the sole or primary motivating factor was the religious belief of the perpetrator’.

Last year, in answer to the demands of the ASA, the homosexual police were unable to say how many of those incidents arose from Christian belief, how many, if any, involved violence, what proportion resulted in a court conviction for violence or at the very least a criminal charge, or indeed, to substantiate the figures at all.

Without any factual backup, the figures alleged became little more than the figment of fevered imaginations, leading the ASA to rule that the Gay Police had failed the tests of substantiation and truthfulness, branding them, in plain terms, a bunch of liars.

Stephen Green, National Director of Christian Voice, said today:

‘Without the figures, the Gay Police Association’s central claim that Christians are using the Bible to justify an increasing number of bloody attacks on homosexuals was always indefensible. The ASA ruling last year was a welcome vindication for those of us who knew all the time that the Gay Police had been tipped over the edge into what appeared to be collective insanity.

‘But now, one year on, we find the same advertisement – curiously with the figure changed from 74% to 75% – in the Gay Humanist Quarterly. Obviously, the atheists in the ‘Gay & Lesbian Humanist Association’ – GALHA – have a lot in common with the members of the Gay Police Association. An irrational hatred of all things Christian and a complete disregard for truth and accuracy are among them. With no fear of God and hence no idea of objective right or wrong or dread of a Day of Judgment, atheists can lie to their hearts’ content. Sadly, by reprinting an advert already condemned as untruthful by the ASA they have proved the point.

‘Despite saying that, I am still shocked at the cavalier disregard for truth and accuracy within the ranks of the GPA and GALHA. Plainly, that verse in the New Testament which says, ‘Thou shalt not bear false witness’ is as difficult for them to get their minds around as the one which says ‘Thou shalt not lie with mankind as with womankind’ or the one which describes homosexual desires as ‘vile affections’. How they need conviction of their sin and to find forgiveness and the love of God in the Lord Jesus Christ.

‘But how deep is the hatred which the reprinting of the Bible ad shows to be seething in homosexual police officers against the peaceful, Christian law-abiding section of the population. This must spill over into their everyday policing and affect their judgment and their ability to testify honestly. To protect the public, I believe the police should remove officers prejudiced by such a personality flaw from duty.

”A couple of years ago, we suggested in a our booklet Homosexuality and the Police that homosexual police officers were living a lie and could not be trusted to tell the truth in Court. GALHA and the GPA have proved our point.’

Notes

Link to ASA: http://www.asa.org.uk/asa/adjudications/Public/TF_ADJ_41843.htm

The ‘Bible ad’ was placed by the Gay Police Association in The Independent newspaper on 29th June 2006. The advertisement carried a picture of a book with ‘HOLY BIBLE’ written on it, and a pool of what was clearly intended to look like blood. It was headed (all lower-case) ‘in the name of the father’, a very obvious reference to the Christian faith. It said, inter alia:

‘In the last 12 months, the Gay Police Association has recorded a 74% increase in homophobic incidents, where the sole or primary motivating factor was the religious belief of the perpetrator.’

In a letter dated 13th July 2006, sent to the Gay Police Association care of British Monomarks, the National Director of Christian Voice asked the GPA:

(a) To give figures to support the alleged 74% increase in ‘homophobic incidents, where the sole or primary motivating factor was the religious belief of the perpetrator’ in the months May 2005 to May 2006, and to state the force(s) or jurisdiction(s) in which this increase occurred,

(b) To categorise these alleged incidents by the recorded religious faith of the perpetrator,

(c) To state in how many of these alleged incidents there was violence,

(d) To state in how many of these alleged incidents there was the shedding of blood.

(e) To state how many of these alleged incidents went to court with a conviction secured,

(f) To state how the Gay Police Association complied the figures and whether or not that body is charged with the compilation of crime figures,

(g) To categorise ‘homophobic incidents’ further and by year since they have been recorded,

(h) To state whether the constitution of the Gay Police Association has as a statement of purpose the stirring up of religious hatred.

There was no reply.

Zoo ‘Gay Sunday’ Condemned as ‘Discriminatory’

1

London Zoo’s ‘Gay Sunday’, where homosexuals gained an additional discount and extra facilities at the venue, has been condemned by a Christian group.

Christian Voice said the event was ‘blatantly discriminatory’ and called for a similar event where families with children would be given the same discount and the same access to events as the homosexuals.

Members of the group held a witness outside the Zoo and gave out leaflets with the headline: ‘No favouritism for gays – we say discounts for all at London Zoo!’

Gay Sunday, which was only advertised in the homosexual press, and which could only be booked via a special page on the London Zoo website, involved the Zoo giving homosexuals:

  • A staggering 20% discount,
  • Access to the Mappin Terraces, where the bears are housed,
  • Admission both to the VIP chill-out lounge in the Mappin Pavilion, and to the prestigious Members’ Lawn and Terrace,
  • An ‘exclusive garden party’ – that’s how London Zoo described it – with a barbecue and a bar, and
  • A live band.

Stephen Green, National Director of Christian Voice, said today:

“London Zoo already charges enough – it costs £11.00, without the voluntary donation, just to get a 3-year-old child into the Zoo. Adults – that’s anyone 16 or over – are £14.50.

“OK, there is a 10% discount if you book online, but those booking online for ‘Gay Sunday’ had a whopping 20% off. They only paid £11.60, which is £1.45 less than the £13.05 everyone else has to pay when they book online.

“Incredibly, by paying less, the gays got more. The ordinary punter didn’t have an exclusive garden party or a barbecue – they had to queue for their overpriced food and drink with everyone else,

“They weren’t entertained by a live band, they weren’t treated like a VIP in the chill-out lounge in the Mappin Pavilion, and as for getting into the Members’ Lawn and Terrace – that was for the favoured few on ‘Gay Sunday’.

“Nor did the paying public have their normal view of the animals up on the Mappin Terraces. That was only open to those with a ‘Gay Sunday’ wristband. Ordinary folk booking online weren’t told part of the Zoo would be shut off.

“This event was only advertised in the homosexual press, notably in the ‘Pink Paper’, which was partnering London Zoo for the event. Latterly, posters were put up at London Zoo, which might have acted as a warning to those with children to avoid Sunday 16th altogether. A picture in the press last week showed that Guy the Gorilla was somewhat under-impressed by the posters.

“London Zoo should not treat homosexuals as a favoured group. Everyone should have had entrance to a smart garden party on the Mappin Terraces, get the best view of all the animals and have had free admission to the Members’ Lawn and Terrace, or nobody should have done.

“Even more to the point, everyone booking on a particular day should have the same online discount. It is blatantly discriminatory to have a special 20% discount only available to those who read homosexual newspapers.

“Although the Zoo website claimed ‘Gay Sunday’ is open to ‘people of all sexual orientations,’ in practice, only those ‘in the know’ about it clicked on it, and if ordinary people, especially those with children, found the page by accident or in the ‘events’ page, they were unlikely to take themselves along to an event like that.

“The bottom line is, London Zoo should treat everyone the same. There should have been an automatic 20% discount for everyone on the primary booking page for London Zoo for this day with a 10% discount on the turnstiles for those just turning up, who are mainly the tourists the Zoo is trying to attract. There should have been entertainment and a barbecue for everyone and the Mappin Terraces should have been fully open to the paying public as usual. Nor should it have encouraged homosexuals as a group or have been called ‘Gay Sunday’.

“Either that, or the Zoo should now have a ‘Family Sunday’ where people with children get in cheap and are treated like VIP’s. After all, a mere 1% of the population is homosexual. Why should they get preferred treatment? We should be creating a more family-friendly environment to encourage tourists to visit London . In fact, London Zoo is overwhelmingly patronised by people with children, and is hardly the most appropriate place for a ‘Gay Sunday’ anyway.

“The irony is, the Government brought in a law earlier this year to ban discrimination against homosexuals. Now we see it working out: in Britain , homosexuals may not be discriminated against, but a family venue like London Zoo can discriminate in their favour. It just isn’t right.”

 

People waiting to enter the Zoo just before 10am as the shutters are being raised. Many families with children go to this major London attraction. Did parents really want them exposed to the depravity of homosexuality?

The Member's Lawn. A sign says: 'This lawn is reserved for the use of Fellows and Friends of ZSL' (Zoological Society of London). And, as it happens, for homosexuals as well on Gay Sunday.
The Mappin Terraces. The public were excluded from seeing the animals up here on Gay Sunday while the gays had their Zoo-sponsored party, live band and barbecue. The privileged few could also chill out in the VIP lounge and sip a cool beer in the pavilion on the left of the picture.
Watch out for the vultures. A mum like this pays £36.50 on the gate to get herself and two 3-15 year-old children into the Zoo, £14.50 for her and £11.00 each for them. Food in the Zoo, face-painting for the kids, is all extra and expensive. Those booking for 'Gay Sunday' paid just £11.45 each.

Cardiff Mardi Gras 2007 – Report

0

Stephen Green, National Director of Christian Voice, said today:

“As expected, we had an entirely peaceful and good-natured evangelistic outreach on Saturday 1st September this year at the Cardiff Mardi Gras, the only homosexual event in Wales . South Wales Police made clear they had learnt lessons from last year and the ‘Minorities Support Unit’ was nowhere to be seen! Around 16 good souls came mostly from Wales from also from England and Scotland . The greater numbers were as a result of my arrest last year; Christians are increasingly standing together and refusing to be silenced by the politically-correct establishment.

“Around half went into the event and listened and talked to those from all backgrounds and persuasions while the rest of us remained at the gates and gave out an updated version of last year’s now-famous evangelistic tract with the so-catchy title: ‘Same-sex love, same-sex sex, what does the Bible say?’ (The one I was arrested last year for handing out).

“The leaflet has probably had its day now, and I should love to see a glossy tract with testimonies of ex-gay men and women next year. The accounts of those who have walked away from the homosexual lifestyle are highly challenging to homosexuals. Gay activists have to pretend the ex-gays do not exist, and they refuse to accept their stories, simply because they give the lie to the ‘born that way’ myth.

“However, our leaflet as it is struck terror into the stewards, who brought out a shredder and encouraged the punters to throw the ‘homophobic literature’ away without reading it. So much for freedom of speech. That led to a complaint from us, and they finally desisted at the request of the police. But that episode was encouraging as it showed the power of a simple Gospel tract and the lengths homosexuals will go to, to prevent the truth of their sad condition, their unholy desires and sinful practices coming out, as it were.

“It also allowed us to present the leaflet to the public as ‘the one they want to ban’ and I was suggesting people put them quickly into their pockets or bags and not let them be seen inside. The young people – and there were a lot of heterosexual kids going to the ‘Mardi Gras’ because they had nothing better to do – especially liked the idea of receiving a rather dangerous leaflet.

“One disappointing note: Cardiff City Church (United Reformed), had a pro-gay stand. Their minister became quite angry with the evangelists, and hated looking at the word of God. Some of his people were even ripping up our leaflets, such was their contempt for the saving blood of the Lord Jesus Christ mentioned therein. ‘The gays’ have apparently taken the building over and turned it into something distinctly less than a Christian church. Even the slogan on their teeshirts was, Godless, humanistic and antinomian: ‘Be yourself’. Personally, having tried that and found it to lead to the brink of hell, I believe God would rather me be what He wants me to be.

“But there were good conversations with people and we were united in joyful fellowship and prayer both before and after the event. Roll on next year!”

Police receive writ on eve of Mardi Gras

National Director, Stephen Green Urges Action Against Men Hijacking Women’s Day

Stephen Green outside Cardiff Magistrates Court after the case against him was dropped.

The Chief Constable of South Wales Police has been served with a High Court writ on the eve of this year’s homosexual ‘Mardi Gras’ in Cardiff, just as evangelists are gearing up for another witness and outreach at the event.

The writ seeks to establish that the police may not use the provisions of statute law, in particular of the Public Order Act 1986, to curtail freedom of speech and freedom of religious expression.

It comes exactly a year after Christian evangelist Stephen Green was arrested under Section 5 of the Act by the Force’s ‘Minority Support Group’ in 2006 and charged with using ‘threatening, abusive or insulting words or behaviour’ causing ‘harassment alarm or distress’ just for peacefully and quietly handing out evangelistic leaflets. All charges were later dropped by an embarrassed Crown Prosecution Service, and Green has said he will bring a County Court action against South Wales Police for wrongful arrest, unlawful imprisonment and malicious prosecution.

Stephen Green, who is National Director of the prayer and lobby group Christian Voice, said this morning:

‘Drag Queens’ at Cardiff Mardi Gras

‘I cannot believe that the police would be so oppressive or stupid as to arrest any of the team today, but we shall see.

‘All we intend doing is handing out a very similar leaflet to last year’s, showing that the Bible is opposed to homosexuality, that it is not the unforgivable sin, and that everyone can and should find forgiveness and healing in the Lord Jesus Christ. It is a standard Gospel message and impossible for the police to object to. I also hope that evangelists will go into the event itself – which is in a public park and is an open forum – to share the good news of Jesus Christ. In fact, the Cardiff Mardi Gras website claims to welcome ‘all people without judgment or prejudice’ so that must include us!

‘The only trouble is, South Wales Police set up a special section, the ‘Minorities Support Unit’, which is dedicated to supporting homosexuals against anyone who might ruffle their feathers. I think Inspector Chadd, who heads it up, got a bit carried away with an inflated sense of his own importance last year.

Stall at Cardiff Mardi Gras 2005

‘Of course if the police can use an Act of Parliament brought in to deal with football-related violence against entirely peaceful Christian evangelists then we are heading down the road to a police state, with all the repressive attitudes that implies. ‘So the purpose of our High Court action is to establish the principle that freedom of speech and freedom to express religious beliefs are not negotiable and may not be taken away on the whim of partisan police officers.

‘At the end of the day, we pray that the Gospel will go out in power and that sinners will repent and find salvation in the only name under heaven by which we can be saved, that of the Lord Jesus Christ. And of course we pray for the day when the abomination and disgrace of a homosexual event is never seen in our capital city again.’

Atheist Ignorance in Skanda Vale slaughter

Shambo, Skada Vale's 'Sacred Bull(ock)'
Shambo, Skada Vale's 'Sacred Bull(ock)'
Shambo, Skada Vale’s ‘Sacred Bull(ock)’

A Hindu community was facing the slaughter of more animals today as an old bullock and a young water buffalo indicated positive from a bovine tuberculosis skin test.

The announcement by Welsh Assembly officials comes less than a month after Shambo, a bullock regarded as sacred by the Hindus at Skanda Vale Temple in Carmarthenshire, was forcibly removed and later reported to have displayed ‘lesions typical of bovine tuberculosis’ after being killed by lethal injection.

But the report of Shambo’s diagnosis was greeted with scepticism by a Christian prayer and lobby group.

Stephen Green, National Director of Christian Voice, said today:

‘Interestingly, the results of “further tests” which were supposed to be carried out to verify TB do not seem to have been made public to date. Even if the vets did come back with positive results, the suspicion must be that no autopsy on Shambo would ever be allowed to find him free of TB. The outcry would be too great for the “animal health” people to live with. The fact is, there is discretion in the Animal Health Act 1981 for an animal to be isolated and treated. Poor old Shambo was sacrificed to an animal health policy which is flawed and implacable.’

Keith Porteous Wood

But there was also scorn from Christian Voice for the atheist ‘National Secular Society’, which the BBC in particular appears to regard as the fount of all wisdom. Its director was quoted expressing his pleasure that Shambo had been put down. Keith Porteous Wood (sic), accused the Skanda Vale protestors of ‘putting religious dogma before the welfare of the community’ and said ‘The consequences of the bull potentially infecting the national herd and the financial consequences of that for people’s lives, and indeed potentially people’s health, are just unthinkable.’

Stephen Green, who lives and farms in Carmarthenshire, went on,

‘Poor Wood has let his hatred of all things religious run away with him. The pompous secularist is now claiming to be an expert on farming and animal health, from his comfortable pad in the livestock-rearing heartland of suburban West London.

‘The truth is that the risk to humans of catching TB from drinking milk from cattle which have the disease is very low, as is the risk from eating meat. In the UK, cases of humans catching it by aerosol from infected animals are miniscule. There is a picture of three of the officials who collected Shambo on the SkandaVale website. None of them is wearing protective gloves and there is not a facemask between them. Clearly Skanda Vale endangered ‘the welfare of the community’ not one whit.

‘In addition, the test for bovine TB is not 100% accurate. It isn’t even 50% accurate. As it happens, only around 35% of animals who react to the TB skin test were actually proved post-slaughter to have TB in the last three years, according to Ben Bradshaw MP in a written answer in Parliament on 8th January 2007. Defra admit that for the new Gamma-Interferon test the proportion drops to 20%, but cover themselves by saying all the others probably had it anyway. On the ground, farmers in the know make sure they drench their cattle for liver fluke when a TB test is due. That simple measure reduces false positives.

‘Finally, the image Wood conjured up of Shambo rampaging around the British countryside infecting ‘the national herd’ is not ‘unthinkable’, his word, but laughable. Shambo was in a secluded, secure pen. Hindu monks may view things differently from other people, but they were not going to turn Shambo loose in the Carmarthenshire lanes to spread his infections from Land’s End to John O’Groats. And Shambo looked more like a bullock than a bull to me.

‘What farmers have been saying all the way through is not that the TB test is infallible – no-one can claim that – but that everyone should be treated the same. Farmers have lost whole herds on the basis on a flawed TB test, but if they were going to be treated like that, then they said the Hindus at Skanda Vale should be dealt with just the same.

‘Of course it is daft to deify created things rather than the God who made them, but secularists are unable to say that; after all, they deify mankind: Man is his own god to them. People like Keith Wood can’t or won’t see any difference between any religion, and in such a blinkered mind, a chance to do Hinduism down just because it is a world religion was just too tempting a bait to pass by.

‘Perhaps in future Pompous will stick to pontificating upon things he knows something about. Of course that will narrow it down quite a lot.

Maskless Defra Health Officials arrive at Skanda Vale to remove Shambo

In the meantime, it is really rather sad that animal health officials are so inflexible as not to allow quarantine and treatment of animals including the newly-tested bovines. It isn’t as if the Skanda Vale bullock and water buffalo will be getting anywhere near the food chain or pose any risk, properly quarantined, to other animals. But of course flexibility, humanity and common sense have not been demonstrable qualities amongst Defra or Welsh Assembly officials.’

Seven things you might not have known about the National Secular Society:

1 Its Executive Director, Keith Porteous Wood, is homosexual.

Partners in Perversion: Keith Porteous Wood and Terry Sanderson (the latter is now deceased).
Partners in Perversion: Keith Porteous Wood (l) and Terry Sanderson (the latter is now deceased).

2 Its President, Terry Sanderson, is also homosexual.

3 Wood and Sanderson are partners in, er, perversion, sharing a house in Ealing and having chosen to benefit from entering into a ‘civil partnership’, which, of course, the National Secular Society campaigned for.

4 Both are leading members of the Gay & Lesbian Humanist Association (Galha).

5 The National Secular Society hates all religions and despises all people of faith with a passion. It is especially piqued at Christianity in general and Britain’s Christian Constitution in particular. Its leadership detests all expressions of Christian morality, and the virtues of chastity and fidelity are especially repugnant to them, given the intensity with which they fulminate against projects like the Silver Ring Thing.

6 The National Secular Society is very keen on children being sexualised at an early age by free condoms and sex education – especially if it includes material on homosexuality. What a surprise!

7 The NSS don’t know the difference between a bull and a bullock. For the record, a bullock (or steer) is a bull who was castrated as a calf. Such an animal is more placid than a bull and lacks the bull’s characteristic high neck-muscle and powerful fore-quarters. Bulls are only kept for breeding, bullocks are for meat. (Or, rarely, to have garlands hung round them in Hindu temples in Wales.)

Pipex Threatens Christian Voice Website

One of the UK ‘s leading domain name registrars has threatened to cut off traffic to a Christian website.

Pipex emailed threatening the action against www.christianvoice.org.uk with no warning and without a proper reason minutes before close of business today. They had already, unilaterally and without telling them, removed control of the domain name from Christian Voice earlier in the day, before they sent the email.

Our website, which is well-known for its opposition to gay rights, could disappear from screens before Saturday. Suspicion over behind the scenes activity has fallen on the Gay Police Association, described as ‘the sworn enemies’ of Christian Voice.

In a strange twist, the contact email address for a ‘Sarah Cooper’, described as ‘Customer Solutions Team’ for Pipex, came back ‘user unknown’ when emailed.

Stephen Green, National Director of Christian Voice, said tonight:

‘This Sarah Cooper says Pipex has received a complaint ‘of an official nature’ requesting removal of the website, which suggests some Government involvement. It also speaks of ‘the defamatory material’ on the site without specifying it, so we do not have a clue what their problem is.

‘They claim our website uses their servers, which it doesn’t, and then they offer to discuss the matter while giving no time to do so and providing a non-contactable email address.

‘I sense the dark hand of our sworn enemies the Gay Police Association behind all this. It could be that they have taken exception to us calling them liars over their ‘Bloody Bible’ advertisement, but it was the Advertising Standards Authority which ruled that they had failed on the tests of decency, and crucially, on truthfulness and substantiation.

‘We shall see what transpires over the next day or so, but if the Christian Voice website does come down, Pipex can expect legal action. A commercial company cannot act as judge and jury unilaterally cutting off valuable web traffic on a whim or because of behind-the-scenes politicking. If they get away with it, every politically incorrect website is at risk.’

Brighton Pride Witness Touches A Nerve

0

A Christian witness at the ‘gay and lesbian’ ‘Brighton Pride’ touched a nerve on Saturday 4th August this year. Brighton ‘Gay Pride’ is billed as Europe’s biggest homosexual event, but the thousands of homosexuals took great exception to a small witness of just 20 Christians at the southern entrance to the City’s Preston Park .

‘Shame on you’, chanted an overweight man, clutching his ‘boyfriend’s’ hand, seemingly unaware of the paradox of accusing others of shame while foaming out his own shame (Jude 1:13). Such perversion merely demonstrates the truth of the Bible when it says ‘the unjust knoweth no shame’ (Zeph 3:5). The Apostle Paul also writes of those ‘Whose end is destruction, whose God is their belly (Greek ‘koilia’) and whose glory is in their shame’ (Phil 3:19).

A small contingent of police officers facilitated the lawful Christian witness and prevented disorder. Arrests were made of a couple of individuals among a number whose enthusiasm for the principles of diversity, possibly enhanced by some alcoholic refreshment, compelled them to launch bottles and cans, most of them empty, at the Christians.


Others vented their hatred by yelling ‘Where are the lions?’ Things have not changed that much since the early Christians paid the ultimate price by objecting to the Roman concept of multifaith diversity and insisting ‘Jesus Christ is Lord’.

Obeying the Scriptural example from Psalm 20:5, ‘in the name of our God we will set up our banners,’ a number of placards were on display, with Bible verses only, from the King James (or ‘Authorised’) Version, as agreed with the police. Apart from one text, Mark 10:6-8, where the Lord Jesus endorsed heterosexual love and marriage in the God-given ‘one-flesh’ union, all the large texts were verses dealing with salvation in the name of Jesus Christ.

Stephen Green, National Director of Christian Voice, said today: ‘Last year, when our successful campaign against Jerry Springer the Opera finished up in Brighton , we were accused by homosexuals attending the doomed production of wanting to stifle free speech. I guess I shouldn’t be too shocked at the hypocrisy of the same people doing everything they could to silence our freedom of speech at the Brighton Gay Pride this year.

‘However, Sussex Police ensured there was no ‘heckler’s veto’ and safeguarded our right to freedom of association, freedom of religion and freedom of expression. The approach of the senior officer on the day was all the more commendable as his own Chief of Police, Joe Edwards, unprofessionally identified the whole Sussex force with homosexuality by walking with the liars of the Gay Police Association at the head of the parade.

‘Edwards did the same thing last year. It really beggars belief that a chief police officer would rather see decadence and depravity on his patch than righteousness, but as they say up north, “there’s nowt so queer as folk.”

‘Earlier on, before the parade turned up, we had some really good and constructive conversations sharing the Gospel with all manner of people. There was also the opportunity for some preaching and we gave out a good number of the famous “Same-sex love, same-sex sex, what does the Bible say?” leaflets.

‘In contrast to South Wales Police, where I was wrongfully arrested last September for handing out the very same evangelistic leaflets, in Brighton I gave them out in full view of the police with no trouble whatsoever.’

Inside Preston Park , there were stalls representing no fewer than seven police forces. Kent, Essex, the Metropolitan Police, Wiltshire, Hertfordshire, Devon & Cornwall (quite a drive) and Sussex, showing off their new Lotus police car, all had stands proclaiming their commitment to diversity and their desire to help homosexuals fabricate allegations of ‘homophobia’ against all who displease them.

Kent, Essex, the Metropolitan Police, Wiltshire, Hertfordshire, Devon & Cornwall (quite a drive) and Sussex, showing off their new Lotus police car, all had stands proclaiming their commitment to diversity and their desire to help homosexuals fabricate allegations of ‘homophobia’ against all who displease them.

Stephen Green continued: ‘It would be amusing in a way if our entirely lawful witness were reported by some sad individual to the same police force who policed it and then logged by them as a homophobic incident. Then again, nothing homosexual activists or the police do these days would surprise me. I wonder if it even embarrassed the police that other stands near theirs revealed the depths of depravity of the homosexual mind.

‘As I wandered around, I lost count of the number of outlets selling sexual paraphernalia, articles designed for penetration, drugs called ‘poppers’ which supposedly enhance sexual activity, ‘viagra’ for those who can’t quite manage it, lubrication to facilitate sodomy, fetish clothing, leather bondage harnesses, and even apparatus to inflict pain.

‘The whole thing revolved around sex, and there were people arriving with their children as if it were just a school PTA family fête. Here was a show celebrating all that is most depraved in human sexuality, with stalls selling imitation male body parts not from under the counter but on open display at a child’s eye’s height, and people were so stupid or irresponsible or careless of those whom the good Lord has placed in their parental care that they were taking little children in to view it all.

‘Can the judgment of God be long in coming on such a depraved, immoral, nation as Britain is today? Not only do we allow evil to flourish, we encourage it at the highest levels, we fawn over it, we almost worship it, we take our children along to corrupt their innocence by immersing them in it. Woe on us all.

Christian Voice Bible Verses on Display

Jesus said: ‘From the beginning of the creation God made them male and female. For this cause shall a man leave his father and mother and cleave to his wife. And they twain shall be one flesh. (Mark 10:5-8)

For God so loved the world, that He gave His only begotten son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life. (John 3:16)

Jesus saith unto him, I am the way, the truth, and the life: no man cometh unto the Father, but by me. (John 14:6)

Neither is there salvation in any other: for there is none other name under heaven given among men, whereby we must be saved. (Acts 4:12)

For I am not ashamed of the gospel of Christ: for it is the power of God unto salvation to every one that believeth. (Romans 1:16)

For the wages of sin is death; but the gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord. (Romans 6:23)

  • Vavoom Bar and V2 club (a ‘den of fabulousness’ with ‘cute topless barmen’, ‘double guest rooms’ upstairs and ‘karaoke with Miss Joyride’. Thanks for the warning.)

Footnote: What were the National Front doing turning up half-way down the parade? Homosexuals are not black or Asian as a rule, they are overwhelmingly white, and therefore totally scrumptious from a National Front point of view. If the NF get too close to where we are any time, they’ll prompt some preaching against racism from Acts 17:26 and Eph 3:15. Seems they didn’t do desperately well, if you can believe their report.

Funny how the NF have just picked up on the idea of protesting at gay pride events, three years after we started in London 2005. Could it be that some homosexual in the NF has worked out that their presence could devalue ours? No, they aren’t that bright, surely? But just maybe the spirit of homosexuality is still as inseparable from national socialism as it was when the Nazi Party began its obscene life in a Munich gay bar.  ttp://www.leaderu.com/jhs/lively.html

Police Group Links to Spoof Website

A police advisory body promoting homosexuality and the reporting of ‘homophobic incidents’ placed a hyperlink on its own website to a satirical website sending up the whole idea of diversity and hate crime, Christian Voice has learned.

The Independent Advisory Group, which liaises with Hertfordshire Police, linked to Christian Voice’s True Vision website.

Twenty-four hours after they noticed the link was to the wrong site, they changed it – but google still has the cached version.

Christian Voice designed www.true-vision.org.uk when David Blunkett was Home Secretary, as a foil to the Orwellian-sounding police ‘True Vision’ project. ‘True Vision’ was intended to get more homosexuals reporting instances of ‘homophobia’.  The site has been up so long some of the live web-links don’t work anymore, but its message is still crystal-clear.

The True-Vision.org.uk site makes it very clear that it is a satirical send-up of the police, with post-Iraq headings like ‘Bible passages can be deployed in 45 seconds’ and police-speak taken to absurdity as in ‘Christianity – together we’ll crack it’. However, it quotes a real police hate crime manual which claimed ‘the infection of homophobia’ was transmitted in families mainly by the elderly and then suggests the elderly are ‘the most subversive people in Britain ‘.

The site has ‘True Vision Police’ saying they are ‘on the side of the LGBT community – in all its rich diversity’, describing Evangelical Christians as ‘a danger to pluralist Britain’ and the Bible as ‘a manual of hate-speech’ while bishops who feel tempted to talk about sin and the healing power of Jesus Christ are advised to keep ‘their heads down’. Finally, it says: ‘TRUE VISION Police just will not tolerate intolerance. Full stop.’

In case anyone doesn’t get it, at the bottom of the True-Vision.org.uk home page is a prominent paragraph explaining the reason for the site, alongside a categorical statement from Christian Voice claiming ownership of the site and showing that it is not official (together with a link to the real police site), and links to Christian ministries specialising in healing for the underlying pathologies which lead to homosexual feelings. Other site pages carry Biblical texts about sexuality and repentance.

Stephen Green, National Director of Christian Voice, said today: ‘Firstly, I completely deny the imaginative accusation of the IAG’s Greg Rattey, who is ‘Chair of East Herts Reflective Group’ whatever that is, and homosexual, that we hacked into the site www.hertsiag.co.uk  and put up the link ourselves.

‘There are two possibilities in reality. The most likely is that the IAG people are so stupid and incompetent that they failed to read the True-Vision.org.uk site before linking to it. But more worryingly, they may be so illiberal and Christianophobic that they agreed with every absurd over-the-top word. Greg Rattey’s own profile talks of “being able to confront religious extremes face on”. Perhaps he sees religious extremes lurking around every corner but cannot acknowledge how extreme he himself has become. Certainly, no reasonable person could possibly think that True-Vision.org.uk is anything other then a send-up of the hate-crime industry.’

The other links from the Herts IAG website are predictably politically-correct but well over half of them are to campaigning homosexual bodies: the Gay Police Association, recently denounced as liars by the Advertising Standards Authority over the ‘Bloody Bible’ ad, the Metropolitan Community ‘Church’, ‘Gay Jews’, ‘Gay Muslims’, Lesbian and Gay ‘Christians’ and ‘Out Everywhere.’

However, one link is to a homosexual club in St Albans known as ‘Fudge’ and there is another link on the ‘events’ page to a ‘LGBT pride’ event on 15th July 2006 at the same venue – although the photos show nobody except a lone IAG person, Chris Auker-Howlett. In one picture, an environment-damaging patio heater stands forlorn on a deserted terrace.

But Stephen Green concluded: ‘A more recent claim to infamy for ‘Fudge’ was the holding in September last year of a ‘traffic light party,’ where wearing the colour green was an announcement that the wearer was sexually available, combined with a “shag-tag night”. I wonder how many members of the Hertfordshire Independent Advisory Group arrayed in green shirts and ballgowns trolled down to their endorsed venue for that refined evening out.’

Gay Pride March 2007

2

Some 15,000 homosexuals and hangers-on paraded perversion through the streets of a rainy London on Saturday 30th July. Just two dozen Christians stood in dignified witness and preached the Gospel of repentance and salvation in the Lord Jesus Christ to those declaring their sin as Sodom .

In shame, some major British companies took part in the parade, with British Airways and Lloyds Bank taking the lead. Nationwide and Barclays Bank also jostled in with promiscuous lesbians and young men desperate for their looks not to fade. And of course the Gay Police Association, caught out lying in the Bloody Bible ad, took pride (going before a fall) of place. (See the full list below.)

It is now the 5th year in a row that homosexual policemen and women have dishonoured their uniform by associating it with the corruption of homosexuality. The banner of the Gay Police Association, so recently reprimanded for their dishonesty by the Advertising Standards Authority, was carried aloft. The Fire Service also could have deployed a fire engine better somewhere else (helping those made homeless by floods?) than in such a disgusting exhibition.

The Army Chief of Staff, General Sir Richard Dannatt, an infantry-man and a vice-president of the Officers’ Christian Union, and his Royal Air Force counterpart, the experienced jet pilot Air Chief Marshall Sir Glenn Torpy, banned their personnel from wearing their uniforms in the parade.

Sadly, the Admiralty did not follow the same example. The Royal Navy is a member of the divisive Stonewall Diversity Champions scheme, and a spokesman said they would be using the parade ‘as a recruitment opportunity.’ The parents of normal young men and women contemplating a career in the Senior Service might take note that, to borrow the famous words of Sir Winston Churchill, rum might be out of fashion, and the lash abolished, but Naval chiefs are still rather keen on sodomy aboard ship.

Given the Navy’s repellent, even if quite undeserved, reputation for institutionalised homosexuality typified by Sir Winston’s joke about ‘rum, sodomy and the lash’, one would have thought Admiral Sir Jonathan Band, Chief of the Naval Staff, would be trying to distance the Service under his command from the unpleasant ‘hello sailor’ stereotype. But perhaps, as one who last commanded a ship a distant ten years ago, the Admiral has forgotten the close proximity in which sailors exist and the opportunities for abuse of power that provides on board ship. Anyway, his decision is beyond sense or parody.

There were floats from government departments, national charities, trades unions, banks, airlines – all wanting to show how politically-correct they are – alongside those of homosexual clubs. And then there were the marchers themselves, transvestites competing with body-building clones for attention, all flash on the outside, empty on the inside.

Stephen Green, National Director of Christian Voice, commented: ‘How these poor people need the Gospel of Jesus Christ, and how our nation needs to repent of its corporate sin. Facing thousands of gesticulating, hate-filled, aggressive gays, observing so many hell-bound souls and watching as such a degrading spectacle goes by is not a pleasant experience. But if Christians do not voice some disapproval of national sin, as the Holy Spirit-filled prophets did in their day, we aren’t fulfilling our calling of being salt or light. In a dysfunctional nation already under judgment, who knows what worse judgment than what we have already might come if we do not keep up our prayer and witness against evil. So it isn’t nice to do, but there is a sense in which prophetic witness is a bit like cleaning out the toilets – it’s a mucky job, but someone has to do it.’

Conservatives Promise Diwali Bank-Holiday

David Cameron’s Conservatives, as they styled themselves in the Ealing Southall by-election, have made bank holidays for non-Christian religious festivals part of their policy platform, Christian Voice has learned.

The promise, to give Asian religious holidays the same status as Christmas, was broadcast over loudhailers from cars working the West London constituency on election day last week.

The desperate attempt to win votes was only broadcast in Asian vernacular languages, but it backfired as voters pushed Cameron’s hand-picked candidate into third place.

Stephen Green, National Director of Christian Voice, said today: ‘This just illustrates David Cameron at his opportunistic, dishonest and patronising worst. Firstly, in this majority-Asian constituency, he suddenly thought there was political money in promising to elevate Eid, Diwali and Guru Nanak’s birthday to the same status as Christmas. Secondly, he attempted to cover his tracks by only putting the policy out in Punjabi, Urdu and Hindi. Thirdly, he reckoned that Asian voters were so stupid that this sop would make his party seem electable to them.

‘In reality, apart from those Muslims who long for Britain to be an Islamic state, most Asian voters want to see Britain assert its Christian heritage. They feel betrayed by secularism and they don’t want to be part of an aimless, multi-religious swamp.  They also respect people who have principles and stick to them. This bizarre policy initiative just confirms that under David Cameron there is nothing of our heritage the Conservatives value enough to want to conserve.

‘Coming so soon after the marriage tax-break debacle, when financial incentives for marriage were proposed by Iain Duncan-Smith’s think tank only for Cameron to say they would also be offered to homosexual couples, it is no wonder that the fiercely family-minded Asian communities were less than impressed by “David Cameron’s Conservatives”.’

Rev George Hargreaves, leader of the Christian Party, whose candidate in Southall nearly beat UKIP, said: ‘To elevate Eid or Diwali to the same status as Christmas would not only undermine Christianity in Britain ; it would totally destroy British culture. To not even use English to convey this policy is nothing less than treacherous.’

Labour Figures’ Bizarre Link to Paedophile Groups

Their involvement with an organisation to which two groups campaigning for the legalisation of paedophilia were affiliated has come back to challenge three leading Labour Party figures.

Before she became an MP, Harriet Harman was the legal officer in the late 1970s for the National Council for Civil Liberties. When Miss Harman joined NCCL in 1978, PIE, the Paedophile Information Exchange, had already been affiliated for three years. Another group, Paedophile Action for Liberation, a Gay Liberation Front offshoot, had also been affiliated to NCCL until it was absorbed by PIE. PIE, which campaigned for adults to have sex legally with children, only broke off its relationship with NCCL when it went undercover in 1982, the same year that Harriet Harman left her NCCL post to become Member of Parliament for Peckham.

NCCL people were earlier involved in keeping the name of an NCCL council-member, Jonathan Walters, out of the People newspaper when it ran an exposé of Paedophile Action for Liberation, of which he was secretary, in 1975. The People still ran the story, but Walters was not named.

Even more extraordinary is the fact that a current Cabinet Minister was running the National Council of Civil Liberties at the time all this was going on.

The Rt Hon Patricia Hewitt MP, Secretary of State for Health, became General Secretary of NCCL in 1974. The very next year, 1975, NCCL invited the Paedophile Information Exchange and Paedophile Action for Liberation to affiliate. In the year after, 1976, the now-notorious paedophile Tom O’Carroll was invited to address the NCCL conference, which promptly voted to ‘deplore’ the use of chemical castration treatments for paedophiles.

Also in 1975, Patricia Hewitt joined the Campaign for Homosexual Equality, as a ‘straight’, in the same year that Keith Hose of the Paedophile Information Exchange addressed its second annual conference. Hose moved a motion of censure on the conference organising committee for ‘relegating paedophilia to ancillary status in conference.’ The motion was seconded by Trevor Locke, who just happened to be a member of the Executive Council of the NCCL. ‘An awareness and acceptance of the sexuality of children is an essential part of the liberation of the young homosexual,’ the motion went on. It was duly passed.

Jack Dromey, whom Harriet Harman married in 1982, and who is now Treasurer of the Labour Party, was also involved with the NCCL. He served on its Executive Committee from 1970 to 1979, so he was there when the decision to invite the two paedophile groups to affiliate was made. NCCL also set up a gay rights sub-committee at the same time, members of which included prominent paedophiles Peter Bremner (alias Roger Nash), Michael Burbidge, Keith Hose and Tom O’Carroll. And of course Walters and Locke were on the Executive.

Stephen Green, National Director of Christian Voice, commented:

‘It is timely that the ghosts of the 1970’s past should come back to haunt these three leading Labour Party politicians. Harriet Harman, Jack Dromey and Patricia Hewitt were in their mid- or late-twenties at the time, but that cannot really excuse the way NCCL came to regard paedophiles as an oppressed minority whose civil liberties needed to be fought for.

‘All three of them really need to explain why they were so friendly toward so many out campaigning homosexual paedophiles in their youth. Why did they allow the NCCL gay rights sub-committee to be stuffed with them? Why were they happy to work with paedophilia supporters on the NCCL Executive? It cannot have been sympathy with child-molestation, so was it a complete lack of judgment or was it moral cowardice?

‘NCCL has now been rebranded as ‘Liberty’ and is doing great work standing up to the Government to defend the civil liberties of us all. But thirty years ago some rather peculiar things went on, and I think we should be told why.’

Christian Wins Wikipedia War Over Gay Police Lies

0

Days after the Advertising Standards Authority revealed that the most-complained-about advertisement of 2006 was the Gay Police Association’s infamous ‘Bloody Bible’ travesty, a Christian activist has won a battle over the GPA’s entry on Wikipedia, the online encyclopaedia which anyone may edit.

On Wednesday 16th May, Christian Voice activist Tony Bennett inserted three entirely factual paragraphs in the GPA entry. The paragraphs make painful reading for those who are not as other men are, as they record that the ASA came as close as it ever can to calling them a bunch of liars over the preposterous advertisement, which taken as a whole accused Christians of perpetrating a non-existent 74% increase in bloody attacks on homosexuals.Indeed, the ASA asked the GPA to substantiate their claims, and the homosexual upholders of law and order, whose evidence the courts rely on when sending villains to jail, were entirely unable to do so.

A GPA activist swooped at 9.35am on Thursday 17th May 2007 to remove the paragraphs, hopefully not while he should have been working away locking up school children for calling each other’s clothing ‘gay’. Undeterred, Bennett put the articles back in later that day, and made a few other corrections to the biased GPA entry.Before they are removed again, here are the Bennett paragraphs, recorded for posterity:

In 2006, an advert by the Gay Police Association in The Independent attracted a record number of complaints and was censured by the Advertising Standards Authority (ASA). The GPA advert showed a Bible lying next to a pool of blood, accompanied by the following text: “In the last 12 months, the Gay Police Association has recorded a 74% increase in homophobic incidents, where the sole or primary motivating factor was the religious belief of the perpetrator”. Over 500 separate complaints were made – a record.The ASA upheld three classes of complaints. First, the advert was considered to be “likely to cause offence to those readers who were Christian” and breached Clause 5.1 of the Code of Advertising Practice.

Second, the advert, “by featuring spilled blood prominently, wrongly suggested that all the reported incidents involved physical injury” and breached Clause 7.1 of the Code.

Third, the GPA was unable to substantiate the claims made in the advert – a further breach of the Code, this time of Clause 3.1.The ASA’s actions including ”telling the GPA to ensure future campaigns were not presented in a way that could cause undue offence, reminding them that they should ensure the use of imagery did not send misleading messages to consumers, and asking them to ensure any statistics could be substantiated”.

In their defence, which Bennett allowed them to put up as part of a cease-fire deal, the GPA said that they “refused to provide the ASA with the personal details of those individuals who had suffered faith-based homophobia as this would have breached confidentiality and potentially exposed more gay people to suffering and harm”.

But even that is mealy-mouthed dodging and weaving. The GPA could have provided its statistics without the ‘personal details’ if it had any to back up its claims of a ‘74% increase in homophobic incidents’, the central claim in the advert.  It didn’t because, frankly, it couldn’t.

If the GPA have difficulty separating fact from fiction, perhaps that is because the whole homosexual lifestyle is founded on a lie, on the fiction that homosexual activity is in some way equivalent to Almighty God’s institution of heterosexual love and marriage.

Last year, we suggested that the GPA lost their grip on reality partly as a result of our spoof ‘True Vision’ website.

The balance of their collective mind was also disturbed, we suggested, by the publication of our factual booklet ‘Homosexuality and the Police’.

The Wikipedia entry for the GPA also makes reference to an award named after Matthew Windibank, the GPA’s founder. Windibank was not a policeman, but a police-employed civilian race relations agitator who committed suicide at the age of 39 in a Brighton hotel room in 1999 because he was ‘unlucky in love’.  See http://archive.theargus.co.uk/1999/4/29/197949.html

Poor Windibank was treading a path familiar to homosexuals, as hope turns to despair in what Quentin Crisp described as the ‘vain’ search for true love from a real man. Psychologist Dr David Reuben once said homosexuals were ‘trying the impossible; solving the puzzle with only half the pieces.’ Homosexuals, he said, ‘are in a difficult position – condemned eternally to search after what does not exist – after what never existed.’ The scandal is that a group of sad, emotionally-disturbed people have been allowed to form a staff association, have had it recognised by the Home Office as official, and have received tens of thousands of pounds of public money to promote their perversion.

Hindu Bull puts Assembly on Horns of a Dilemma

0

Only a novelist with the comic imagination of Anthony Trollope could make it up. Animal Health takes on Multiculturalism in the War of Shambo.

A sacred bull at the Skanda Vale Temple deep in rural Wales is threatened with slaughter by the Welsh Assembly Animal Health Wallahs.

Some 90,000 Hindus a year go to Shambo’s shrine at Llanpumpsaint in the heart of Carmarthenshire. They may just be following the herd, but Shambo is divine in their eyes. The trouble is, Shambo has come out positive for a bovine tuberculosis skin test, and even with no other cattle within roaring distance of him, and no certainty that he actually has TB, Assembly animal health officials are in no, er, mood to back down.

‘TB in cattle is an infectious disease that has a significant impact on the health and welfare of the national cattle herd,’ said a spokesman. ‘We fully understand that this can be distressing for the owners. However, measures are in place to protect public and animal health and prevent the further spread of the disease.’

‘Distressing’ does not, however, quite convey precisely how outraged the Hindus feel about the prospect of the god who is Shambo being dragged off, slaughtered and thrown on a communal funeral pyre.

Hindu Forum of Britain secretary-general Ramesh Kallidai said killing a sacred temple cow or bull was ‘highly sacrilegious’ to his faith. He said; ‘This is completely unthinkable for us and is a matter of grave concern. It strikes at the very core of our beliefs.’

The problem is, slaughtering livestock for any or no reason lies at the very core of the beliefs of the Governments’ animal health mandarins. The wanton Foot-and-Mouth slaughter had little to do with animal health and was done solely to protect exports of breeding animals. Defra’s, or Deathra’s, determination to slaughter the now-famous Harriet the Cow, a family pet, because she had once been in a herd one of whose members later developed BSE, led to a stand-off in a field between villagers and Defra vets. Harriet was put down by the family’s vet in March 2007 because of kidney failure.  A post-mortem showed she had never contracted BSE.

So, with Hindus unlikely to take Shambo’s slaughter lying down, will the Assembly make policy on the hoof to save him? With the normal speed of action of the animal health stormtroopers, dawn raids and all, foaming at the mouth with stun guns at the ready, charging in like a bull in a china shop to wreak their own brand of injustice, we shouldn’t have to wait until the cows come home for the next instalment. But with the prospect of beefy Hindus rampaging through the streets of Cardiff, any contact between Shambo’s holy droppings and the Assembly’s diversity air-conditioning could leave its unbending animal health officers with more than egg on their faces.

Condoms on TV Won’t Stop Teen Sex Crisis

The suggestion from a Government-funded advisory group that compulsory sex education and advertising condoms on TV will reduce teenage pregnancies and sexually-transmitted diseases was dismissed as ‘laughable’ today by a Christian prayer and lobby group.

The report, from the Independent Advisory Group on Sexual Health and HIV, said recent government campaigns had failed to recognise the link between drink, drugs and sexual health. The document also blamed the media for glamorising celebrity excesses.

Consequently, teenagers in the UK face a “sexual health crisis” fuelled by alcohol, drugs and risky sexual behaviour. They are “defining their lifestyle” by behaviour encouraged by celebrity culture, the Advisory Group said. The increase in sexually-transmitted infections and high teenage pregnancy rates are “disturbing”, it says.

Sexual Health Crisis

Professor Mark Bellis, head of the centre for public health at Liverpool John Moores University and one of the authors of the report, called the link between alcohol, drugs and risky sexual behaviour “fuel for a sexual health crisis”.

The Advisory Group, which is funded by the Department of Health, and has a membership drawn largely from the family-planning and homosexual health industry, also points out that the UK has the highest rates of teenage pregnancy and sexual infections in Europe.

The UK came bottom of a table of 21 countries in a recent Unicef analysis of child wellbeing. It showed British children had the highest incidence of risk-taking behaviour. More had had sexual intercourse by 15 than in any other country, more had been drunk two or more times aged 11-15, and they were the third highest users of cannabis. Over the past 12 years, chlamydia infections had increased by 300%, gonorrhoea by 200%, HIV by 300% and syphilis by 2,000%. “In a single act of unprotected sex with an infected partner, adolescent girls have a 1% chance of acquiring HIV, a 30% chance of getting genital herpes and a 50% chance of contracting gonorrhoea,” the report said.

Platitudes and Failed Already

But when it comes to recommending action, the report sways between the platitudinous and the failed-already. It urges the Government to ‘reduce drug taking and alcohol consumption among young people’ and calls for compulsory sex education (PSHE) in schools.

The chairman of the Independent Advisory Group on Sexual Health and HIV, Baroness Gould, currently President of the Family Planning Association (FPA), and who is a leading campaigner for ever-easier access to abortion, even suggested making condoms more readily available to young people and allowing unrestricted TV adverts for them.

In a statement the Department of Health said the issue of sexual health has been one of its ‘top priorities’ and recent statistics showed the lowest levels of teenage pregnancies since 1993.

Laughable

Stephen Green, National Director of Christian Voice, said today:

‘The Advisory Group has reported on one of the greatest problems our society faces but its recommendations are laughable. There is a shocking epidemic of teenage pregnancy and increasingly of sexually-transmitted diseases and consequent infertility. But to suggest that more and even compulsory school sex education will help reduce teenage pregnancy and sexually-transmitted disease is like suggesting paraffin will put out a fire. The more sex education you have, the more teens want to try out the enticing bits of what they have learned. But every study shows that they are lousy at using contraceptives.

‘Even if they were brilliant at putting on condoms, sexual health experts know these are nowhere near as effective as they are claimed to be by campaigners like Baroness Gould.

‘As to advertising condoms on TV, that will send out precisely the sort of mixed message of which Lady Gould complains, unless the message she intends to convey is ‘Get fornicating, kids; everyone else is.’

‘It is facile to attack the media for reporting on celebrity tarts and drunks. If the celebs were not so irresponsible, there would be nothing to report. And the rot starts at the head. Those in line to the Throne are among the worst at encouraging drinking and irresponsible sex. If Prince William and Prince Harry behaved like Christian gentlemen, a challenging standard would be set which would be bound to filter down.

‘The Department of Health’s response is just complacent. Yes, the teen pregnancy stats went down in 2005, but as the Government’s targets are all based on teenage pregnancy, no-one cares how many kids, girls especially, are becoming infertile through Chlamydia and Gonorrhoea. And those diseases, and Herpes and HPV even more so, go right round the condoms the advertising of which Lady Gould thinks will solve the problem.

‘Baroness Gould herself is Labour lobby-fodder in the House of Lords. She was a strong supporter of the Sexual Orientation Regulations, the Government’s Religious Hatred Bill and its draconian terror laws. Not one of the strongest independent upholders of human rights, she also supported the introduction of ID cards. As soon as she was elevated to the House of Lords in 1993, she began voting for every homosexual rights measure she could get her hands on, including sodomy on 16-year-olds, in the armed forces, in schools and in sex education, and inevitably for civil partnerships and for homosexuals to be allowed to adopt other people’s children.

Stay A Virgin; Marry a Virgin

‘There is only one way to reduce teenage sex and that is to promote chastity. The message has to be: ‘Stay a virgin; marry a virgin.’ Of course the homosexual lobby won’t like that as there is nothing in it for them, and nor is there any money in chastity for the contraceptive manufacturers and distributors such as the FPA who are so well represented on the Independent Advisory Group.

‘On the wider social front, the ending of our culture of self-gratification, self-destruction, lying, thieving and violence will take a miracle of Godly national repentance. That is what we in Christian Voice are praying and working for. But in the meantime, hands-wringing and more of the same are exactly the sort of irresponsible and ungodly reactions we would expect from this Government-funded Independent (well, except from the Government and the teen sex industry) Advisory Group on Sexual Health and HIV.’

High Court Allows ‘Springer’ Challenge

The High Court has allowed a legal challenge to a magistrate’s decision not to issue a private prosecution for blasphemy over Jerry Springer the Opera.

Mr Justice Underhill has granted a judicial review of the ruling of District Judge Caroline Tubbs not to issue a summons on the application of Stephen Green, National Director of Christian Voice.

Stephen Green laid information in January this year against both the Director General of the BBC, Mark Thompson, who allowed Jerry Springer the Opera to be screened on BBC2, and the show’s producer, Jonathan Thoday, who staged it at the Cambridge Theatre in London’s West End and then in a nation-wide tour last year. But sitting at Horseferry Road Magistrates’ Court, the District Judge refused to allow the summons to be issued.

Lawyers for both Mark Thompson and Jonathan Thoday submitted papers to the High Court as interested parties. Those papers were read by Mr Justice Underhill together with the application for judicial review from Stephen Green and the ruling of District Judge Tubbs.

The judgment means the case will go straight to an oral hearing. It is the most positive of three possible outcomes. His Lordship found on his viewing of the papers that it could be argued that the magistrate was wrong on both reasons she gave for refusing to issue the summons. His ruling says:

‘The District Judge appears to have refused to issue the summons on 2 alternative grounds 1 that a prosecution was precluded by s 2 4 of the Theatres Act and 2 that the facts alleged by the claimant did not disclose that the essential ingredients of the offence were prima facie present.

‘As to 1 I consider that the District Judge was wrong to take the view that s 2 4 applied to the offence of blasphemy. With respect to the submissions of the first interested party the question is one of law not of judicial discretion.’

On 2, the ruling says: ‘… given the definitions of the scope of the law of blasphemy endorsed in Whitehouse, I do consider it arguable that the DJ’s assessment that the facts alleged disclose in effect no case fit to go to the jury was wrong in law…’

Michael Phillips, representing Stephen Green, said:

‘The High Court has three options when considering a case for judicial review. It can give full permission on the written evidence alone, it can order an oral hearing to seek permission, or it can refuse permission altogether. His Lordship has given permission for a full judicial review. Therefore the judicial review proceeds straight to the full hearing, there is no permission hearing. It also seems to be a relatively strong indication from the judge that there is a good case for us to make.’

However, Mr Justice Underhill was careful not to prejudge either the judicial review hearing or any ultimate prosecution. He went on: ‘I should in the circumstances of this case emphasise that I am saying no more than that the challenge to the District Judge’s decision was arguable. That does not necessarily mean that it will succeed; still less that any eventually prosecution would succeed.’

Stephen Green, National Director of Christian Voice, said today:

‘Even with His Lordship’s caveat, I praise God that this is the most positive outcome we could have had. I shall look forward to the hearing with some confidence.’

The High Court will give a date for the judicial review hearing in a couple of weeks.

TES Reveals Shocking Intolerance

0

An education web forum (link below) has revealed shocking anti-Christian intolerance among teachers.

In the forum, published on the Times Educational Supplement website, teachers belittle Christian parents, ridicule their beliefs, describe Sunday School teaching as child abuse and threaten Child Protection procedures for trivial reasons.

The forum, started last Thursday under the disparaging title ‘Some Parents’, begins with a teacher bemoaning the fact that a child refused her advice about hay fever with the words, ‘Jesus will heal it.’

The teacher concerned refuses to discuss the matter with the parents, and even in the absence of their side of the story, says she already knows what they will say and is ‘Tempted to report CP for neglect’.

From there, the thread descends into an anti-Christian rant, with Christianity described by one contributor as ‘a certain set of stories’, ‘crazy,’ ‘unfathomable and idiotic’, ‘an insane made-up myth’ and ‘wanton mental abuse’. Others, who have never met any of the parties, chime in describing the parents as ‘Middle class religious freaks’, sneer that Jesus won’t provide a tissue, suggest telling the child that ‘the school nurse is Jesus or Superman or Wonder women (sic)’ and wondering ‘can antihistamines be seen in a vision?’.

A few contributors try to urge some respect and tolerance for religious belief, but their points are ignored by the fundamentalist atheists and they are simply shouted down. Among them is a hay fever sufferer who observes that anti-histamines often don’t work. What will shock many people, even non-Christians, is how shallow the level of debate is between those who teach our children. One teacher, who says she is shortly going to be ordained, describes the parents as ‘Christian idiots’ and says she would deny communion to parents who smack their children. Another, who claims to read the Bible every day, urges that the parents be reported under Child Protection procedures. Knowing that this could easily disrupt their family, have their children taken into care and probably adopted against their will and even any form of justice, yells: ‘SEE HOW THEY HANDLE IT. It may wake them up.’

Stephen Green, National Director of Christian Voice, said today:

‘The intensity of anti-Christian belief among these teachers is almost unbelievable. It is frankly appalling that such people are in charge of children during a large part of the day. Their views go beyond mere concern that a child is not getting a medicine that some teacher thinks he should get. They use the issue to denigrate Christian belief, they shut their eyes to the evidence from the Bible and other historical sources for the reality of the life of Jesus, they tolerate no view other than their own, and one or two display a degree of atheistic evangelicalism which would put Richard Dawkins in the shade.

‘A couple of contributors to the forum make the point that none of the others would dare publicly to rant against Islam or Mohammed like they do about Christianity and Jesus Christ. That highlights the politically correct nature of their attacks on Christianity. Still, there are good signs in the reaction to the Sexual Orientation Regulations that Christians are starting to rediscover the confidence and courage to fight back and stand up for their faith. It can’t come too soon.’

Blood Toucheth Blood

In a chilling reminder of the laws of cause and effect, an American Christian group have proposed a reason for the bloodshed of the Virginia Tech massacre.

On Monday morning, 16th April, 2007, a 23-year-old male student armed with two pistols and multiple clips of ammunition, murdered at least 30 people locked inside a Virginia Tech academic building in Blacksburgg, Virginia, before taking his own life.

The VA Tech senior is also suspected of killing two other students earlier in a co-ed dormitory building, for a total of 33 dead in the deadliest mass shooting in modern American history.  The mass on-campus killings are immediately, eerily, sadly, and tragically reminiscent of the Columbine High shootings on April 20, 1999 , which killed 15, including the two teen male student shooters.

President George Bush said on Monday, “Schools should be places of safety and sanctuary and learning.  When that sanctuary is violated, the impact is felt in every American classroom and every American community.”

But Columbia Christians for Life, based in Colombia , South Carolina, picking up on President Bush’s words, asked him:  ‘What about the violation of the “safety” and “sanctuary” of a mother’s womb by abortion, and that impact, Mr. Bush ?  Over 47 Million have been murdered by surgical abortion alone in America since 1973! (www.ldi.org).’  At VA Tech’s polytheistic ecumenical convocation Tuesday, President Bush said, “It’s impossible to make sense of such violence and suffering.”

Steve Lefemine, the Director of Columbia Christians for Life, said Mr Bush was wrong.  ‘If you will search the Scriptures you referred to in your remarks at VA Tech, perhaps you will see God’s commandment of obedience to Him, for a nation to enjoy peace and security (e.g., Lev. 26:5,6).’

Lefemine continued: ‘ABORTION, which is violence against children while in the wombs of their mothers, is the root cause of the violence that we see coming out of this generation of youth.  The Bible says, “Blood toucheth blood” (Hosea 4:2), or bloodshed follows bloodshed.  Innocent bloodshed in the womb is being followed by innocent bloodshed around our nation.  The 33 killed Monday at VA Tech is 1/100th of the estimated 3,300 murdered daily by surgical abortion alone on American soil in America ‘s approx. 740 child-murder-by-abortion domestic terror centers (www.ldi.org). There are spiritual principles of corporate bloodguilt and blood recompensation revealed in the Bible which apply when innocent blood is shed upon a land, as in the case today of government-protected child-murder-in-the-womb.

‘We adults should not be surprised that a generation of youth is resorting to violent murder to resolve their problems with others, even when it ends in the taking of their own lives.  The Bible says that God is not mocked, that we reap what we sow (Galatians 6:7).  For the last 34-plus years, we have sown violence into the next generation by murdering children in the womb.  God spoke through His servant the prophet Hosea over 2700 years ago, to the people of Israel:

“My people are destroyed for lack of knowledge: because thou hast rejected knowledge, I will also reject thee, … seeing thou hast forgotten the law of thy God, I will also forget thy children.”   Hosea 4:6 KJV

‘It is time for the adults of America to repent.  We have sinned grievously and wickedly against the next generation.  We have killed one-third of the post-Roe generation by surgical abortion alone, and probably two to three times that number chemically with abortifacient birth control, e.g., birth control pills, Depo-Provera, Norplant, IUD, etc.  We have taught the next generation that it is OK to fornicate, and if necessary, it is OK to “choose” to kill those pre-birth human beings in the womb who are unwanted. Now (e.g., Columbine, VA Tech) we are reaping the bad fruit of what we have sown.  We have sown violence in the womb with abortion, and now we are reaping violence in schools, on the streets, in homes, and around the nation.  These shootings are a sign and a judgment from God Himself.

‘ Virginia delegate George Mason said in the 1787 Constitutional Convention, “By an inevitable chain of causes and effects, Providence punishes nation sins by national calamities.”  Child-murder-by-abortion is a national sin.  Columbine, 9-11, Katrina, and VA Tech have all been national calamities.  More and greater divine judgment is coming upon America , even destruction, unless we repent of the national sin of abortion.’

Stephen Green, National Director of Christian Voice, added: ‘It is not just America which needs to repent.  We have just the same anti-life attitude in Britain , the same sort of figures for abortions as a proportion of conceptions, the same determination to leave morality and marriage to the ‘market’, the same societal death-wish and the same sort of disaffected youth.  Our youth are into knives as well as guns, and increasingly carry the latter despite hand-guns being banned after Dunblane, to a chorus of how much safer our streets were going to be.  They use both to settle the most trivial of disputes, or to rob for peanuts, without any recognition of the worth of human life.

‘Britain and America also share responsibility for the wreckage of Iraq , where 200 people were murdered in Baghdad alone yesterday.  We seem able to export and amplify our lawlessness.  Unless we too repent of the evil of abortion, by which in Britain over 6 million children have died since 1968, and begin to rebuild morality and marriage, at every level of society, we can expect the judgment of God.  Nor will it just fall on the lower classes, whom our elite hold in contempt.  It will fall on our leaders as well.  They too will reap what they have sown.’
