More From the Religion of Peace and Tolerance

“Shame, shame on the U.K.,” protesters chanted. They called for Gibbons’ execution, saying, “No tolerance: Execution,” and “Kill her, kill her by firing squad.” … Some of the protesters carried green banners with the name of the Society for Support of the Prophet Muhammad, a previously unknown group. Many protesters carried clubs, knives and axes [...]

Well, Is It Murder Or Isn’t It?

When the laws of a nation have a glaring internal contradiction, something’s gotta give.  This guy has been charged with murder because he slipped his girlfriend (that would be in addition to his wife) the abortion pill RU-486 and caused her to have two miscarriages. According to the article, Wisconsin is one of 36 states [...]

Ridiculous

Where are all the civil rights demonstrations about this? A Sudanese court found a British teacher guilty of inciting religious hatred and sentenced her to 15 days imprisonment Thursday for allowing a teddy bear to be named “Mohammed,” British authorities and her lawyer reported. Gillian Gibbons also faces deportation from Sudan after her prison term, [...]

“Call It Theocracy” (with apologies to Bruce Cockburn)

Two NR Items

I was excited to receive the first issue of my new subscription to National Review today.  (I might have gone with The Weekly Standard but it was not offered in the catalog that one of my Confirmation kids was selling.)  Two items from the always entertaining “The Week”: Hillary Clinton says that her competitors are [...]

You, Out of the Gene Pool!

Sarah Irving and Toni Vernelli are two women who feel that having children is selfish and bad for the environment. (Here‘s a longer story from the Daily Mail.) They are like every other fanatical extremist who populates the lunatic fringe. They want sacrifice, but they want it from other people. In this case, they’re happy [...]

“Things Not to Say At Funerals”

A couple years ago, my (former) co-blogger posted one of the five things not to say at funerals, by Dr. Jeff Gibbs.  People continue to find that post, so here is the link to the rest of them. Timotheos

Don’t Mess With Chuck!

There’s more where that came from. I do not endorse them all. Here are some good comments from Gov. Huckabee on abortion. Even though I think that most states would severely restrict abortion if given the chance, Huckabee is right that it is either right or wrong to kill a fetus (you know, that “thing” [...]

Exposing the “Snowjob” that is Al Gore

Two items of interest from a friend of mine. And: Why won’t Al Gore Debate? Check around that website.  There’s more! Timotheos

Dear Lord, Preserve Us

This would be a travesty of the highest order. Timotheos
