Two very disturbing socialist/homosexualist stories hit the media this past week. In the U.S., a lesbian with the help of the atheist revolutionaries at the ACLU (American Civil Liberties Union), tried to gain permission to participate in her school prom with her lesbian lover as her date. In British Columbia, two homosexuals filed a discrimination complaint against a Christian couple for not renting them a room in their Bed & Breakfast establishment.

Still today, civilized people work hard at resolving disputes with each other, and if they can’t, they’ll walk away unless a real injustice has been committed that requires resolution. In such situations, people who have a mature social life have people they can appeal to for help as mediators. The courts are also available to help parties pursue a resolution.

Tragically, due to the entrenchment of a socialist mentality and ethos in North America, a growing number of people turn to the courts and quasi-judicial tribunals to solve more and more of their problems. Part of the reason for this is that socialism replaces humanity with institutionalization. One effect of this is that the state becomes people’s Daddy and Mommy – the agents of the state take on the role and function of the organic social relations that exist in a healthy and civilized culture. It is part of the dynamic and philosophy of totalitarianism in which the state becomes larger and more powerful at the expense of other areas of society (e.g. families, churches, business interests, the voluntary sector, local organic communities). And the state becomes more powerful and influential by the will of the people who live as perpetual adolescents, never growing up, never learning how to accept adult responsibilities or develop a mature web of valuable social relations.

It is one thing to seek the help of the courts for redress when it comes to a financial loss due to the irresponsible actions of another person. It is a very different mentality, flowing from a very different – socialistic/atheistic – philosophy that sees the state as the correct place to seek a remedy for hurt feelings. Children raised in a civilized, Judeo-Christian ethos, would go to Mum or Dad when someone in the playground hurt their feelings. And in many cases, responsible parents told their children – their sons anyway – to buck up and quit whining. Today, many of these blubbering babies are adults and they turn their allegedly hurt feelings into a weapon of hate in the courts and tribunals of our land. That’s exactly what we are seeing with these two cases that appeared this past week.

Of course socialists, trying to give an air of seriousness to the concept of hurt feelings, dress them up behind the label of discrimination. Unfortunately, a huge swath of modern Christians and “conservatives” have also drunk from the delusional waters of “discrimination” rhetoric, so you are a bit out of modern mainstream thinking when you criticize it. That’s OK, After all, one has to use the term “thinking” very loosely when talking about most of us in modern Western society, so there’s much potential for improvement here – and much of that improvement would be realised in the wholesale rejection of the atheistic ideology of Socialism.

The B.C. Human Rights Tribunal is a tool of hard-line socialism. It’s a vehicle available for childish, under-developed citizens to use to trouble their neighbours. To be sure, the two homosexuals who have filed their complaint against the Christian B&B owners should have demonstrated maturity by bucking up and going off to find another B&B. It wouldn’t have crossed the mind of an adult Canadian to drag the business before an HRT. But the HRT shouldn’t even exist to accept such complaints, building a body of precedents in blubbering and whining. It sure doesn’t do much for the reputation of Canada’s legal system.

Socialism in Canada needs to be put on the gallows and its neck snapped. Would that Christians would abandon this idolatry and show the necessary leadership in overthrowing this foreign import, this anti-Canadian ideology. Would that we might return to the Judeo-Christian ethos of justice, ordered liberty and genuine equality that gave us civilization in the first place. It would help if Christians didn’t experience, and surrender to, so much fear over the real-world implications of their own religion. Today is the day to overcome fear with faith in God Almighty – and act accordingly, setting an example for others, and bringing the willing along with us in this journey. Let’s leave the Tonka toys in the sandbox and enter the real world as adults and rebuild a thriving, God-honouring civilization in Canada and America.
