New Jersey’s school war on children

ChristianGovernance eletter – January 16, 2013

An NJ school board has suspended a teacher for talking Christianity with a student, and giving him a Bible. This was all at the initiation of the student, not the teacher, but the stalinist protocol for protectionism at this humanist gov’t school still kicked in. They can’t protect students from bullying. They won’t protect them from sex and STDs. But, come hell or high water, they’ll protect them from Christianity!!

Do we believe in media bias?

January 31, 2013

A Harley biker is riding by the zoo when he sees a little girl leaning into the lion’s cage.

Suddenly, the lion grabs her by the cuff of her jacket and tries to pull her inside to slaughter her, under the eyes of her screaming parents.

The biker jumps off his Harley, runs to the cage and hits the lion square on the nose with a powerful punch.

Should you be terrified of a Canadian Christian law school?

January 31, 2013

ChristianGovernance eletter – January 25, 2013

Homosexualists hate the idea of a Christian law school.

Or do they?

We commented on this issue in our last eletter. Bill Flanagan, the president of the Canadian Council of Law Deans, objects to Trinity Western University being permitted to establish a Christian law school.

Canadian Blood Services

January 29, 2013
CHP Canada – January 24, 2013
Canadian Blood Services
The source of blood donations is a vital part of maintaining a safe blood supply. Many of us remember the tainted blood scandal of the 1980s and the devastating effect on the lives of Canadians infected with Hepatitis C or HIV.  For this reason, in Canada any man who has had sex with another man since 1977 is not accepted as a blood donor.
In December 2012, Canadian Blood Services reported that they had made official application to Health Canada to decrease this prohibition to men who have not had sex with another man in the past 5 years.  It is important to understand that low dose HIV infection may not be detectible in the early stages following transmission by sexual contact.  Will we accept the additional risk to our lives during a time of serious illness?
What risk are we talking about?  The Ontario Ministry of Health and Long-term Care reported in 2007, statistical evidence which showed that the HIV infection rates for Males who have Sex with Males (MSM) in the Region of Toronto was 19.6% (1 in 5) and rising.  This is 200 times greater than the rate for males from non-endemic countries who contract HIV solely through heterosexual contact.
In 2007, Canada Press reported on the legal resolution of the tainted blood scandal. The following excerpt shows how real the pain is for the surviving victims 20 years later.
“The Canadian Red Cross Society is deeply sorry for the injury and death caused to those who were infected . . . and for the suffering caused to families and loved ones of those who were harmed,” Dr. Pierre Duplessis, the organization’s secretary general, told the Ontario Superior Court in a video-taped apology as tearful victims looked on.
In 2010, the Ontario Superior Court prosecuted a man who had been charged by Canadian Blood Services for lying on his blood donor questionnaire about his sexual activity with other males.
“I accept that as individuals, many gay and bisexual MSM may experience a loss of dignity, a feeling of marginalization, a sense of disappointment, and a sense of injustice when denied the opportunity to give blood, and these reactions may be all the stronger and more poignant due to the history of discrimination experienced by gay and bisexual men,” Judge Aitken wrote in her 187-page decision.
“These are significant ramifications on the quality of life. That impact, however, is not in the same league as a blood recipient who has to use blood or blood products in order to survive or make life livable, and who is asked to accept lower safety standards even though an adequate supply of blood could be provided if higher safety standards were imposed,” the judge wrote.
What is happening at Canadian Blood Services that causes them to successfully charge a man in 2010 for lying about his male to male sexual activity and then in 2012 apply to Health Canada to lower the donor standards with regard to the MSM group?
Health Canada intends to provide their response to the application within the next 2 months and so your time to speak up is now.
We urge you to e-mail or call your MP and to be very strong in your opposition while maintaining courtesy. MP contact information can be found at this link simply by entering your postal code.
Also, please e-mail Prime Minister Harper about your concern at [email protected] or call him at 613-992-4211.
It would be helpful for us if when you send your e-mails, you would ‘bcc’ CHP Canada National Office at [email protected]
Thank you for your support on this important health issue.

Going Ballistic in Korea: Rod Taylor

January 25, 2013

By Rod Taylor

Temper tantrums have long been a way of life for the dictator-family now represented by Kim Jong-un of North Korea. Histrionics and hyper-venting are so much easier than diplomacy. Today, those denunciations and threats reached a new peak as the hawkish ruler of the Communist North (speaking through the National Defence Commission) declared that the DPRK would be launching more tests in retaliation for UN sanctions. These tests would be of long-range missiles, capable of reaching targets in the United States, as well as “higher-level” nuclear tests, thought to involve enriched uranium.

Selective Justice: Rod Taylor

January 18, 2013

By Rod Taylor

Because sentence against an evil work is not executed speedily, therefore the heart of the sons of men is fully set in them to do evil. Ecclesiastes 8:11

Evil is flourishing in our land today. The arbiters of justice seem powerless to contain it. At times they seem accomplices.
