Today’s shabby university religion

Today’s shabby university religion
The most interesting aspect of the analysis in the article below of the shabby intellectual condition of today’s universities and colleges is the following:
> However, religion has been largely shunned from higher education during the past 100 years, in the name of combating sectarianism and dogma.
More fraud and dishonesty from homosexualists who blame churches for attacks
Yet another example of militant anti-Christian hate-mongers just looking for an opportunity to bash Christians, “objectifying” them with a torrent of bigotry. The article here notes that the police are still investigating the attack in question where the victim was homosexual. But homosexualists, more interested in marginalizing their enemies than in facts, want to jump in already, and with the most malicious and unsubstantiated fraudulent bigotry. It’s so typical. The same kind of hate-mongering was on display a few days ago in an article by a secularist leader in P.E.I. in relation to the recent arson attack on a home where two homosexuals were living. Homosexualists continue to minimize the seriousness of assault and physical harm by lumping a whole range of objections under the label of hate. Then they spend much more time condemning verbal criticism than real assaults, and they fraudulently try to link criticisms by Christian leaders in churches with vigilante behaviour by people who never set foot in churches. The fraud is so transparent, but homosexualists aren’t called on it, certainly not by mainstream media like the New Brunswick Telegraph-Journal, which writes puff pieces like that below which demand no evidence for the fraudulent claims and which offer no counterpoint from critics of these bigoted activists.
Another dishonest secularist blames Christianity for homosexual assault
And he’s such a self-righteous and arrogant individual that he does this prior to anyone being arrested for the crime in order to determine whether it had anything to do with the owners being homosexual. Some people are looking for every opportunity to bash Christians. One of his most dishonest – and fraudulent - statements is: “A religion or ideology simply cannot preach against a group of people for centuries but claim to be innocent when such preaching leads to violence against that group.” (I add more comment below the excerpt below.)
McGuinty’s socialist religion brings Ontario to its knees

Laggard Ontario
By Livio Di Matteo
The Ontario government will be tabling its fall economic statement in the legislature on Thursday. Premier Dalton McGuinty, who has been seemingly unaware of the impact of his energy and economic policies on the province’s economy, would do well to take heed from the danger signs provided by another update – the recent Statistics Canada update to provincial GDP numbers.

Supreme court appeal on Quebec’s secularist religion course
Catholic Civil Rights League Press release – October 21, 2010
League supports SCC appeal in Quebec schools’ question
MONTREAL, QC – The Catholic Civil Rights League is pleased to learn that the Supreme Court of Canada has allowed the appeal of families from Drummondville, Quebec seeking an exemption from the province’s ethics and religious culture (ECR) course.
Government-schooled students shocked at relevance of “religion”
The most intelligent critics of government school do not focus on hot button course-specific problems with curriculum. They note that the presumptive philosophical or presuppositional backdrop for all education in these schools is morally loaded, and anti-Christian. The large majority of Christians are oblivious to this backdrop, conveniently so. They don’t appreciate until it’s too late how inadequate a few hours of cute stories at home and church are to combat what becomes the foundational basis for what their child deems to be real education.
The Supremacy of God protects Canada from totalitarianism
Last week, the National Post reported on some atheists who want the “Supremacy of God” clause taken out of the Preamble of the Charter of Rights and Freedoms. These atheists got uppity because a Quebec judge referenced the clause in a decision accusing the Quebec government of totalitarianism in its implementation of its new religion and ethics curriculum, imposing it even on private schools. I submitted a column to the National Post in response to the article. They didn’t print it so I have reprinted it below. The National Post itself produced an editorial on the subject in their Saturday paper. The argumentation in favour of the clause in my column vs. the Post’s illustrates the difference between a clear Christian apologetic and a much weaker attempt to defend it on more generic grounds.
Should Quebec return tax dollars received from all Christians?

Religious people are taxpayers too
By Charles Lewis
Yesterday, the Post editorial board contended that Montreal’s Loyola High School should not have the right to opt out of a Quebec government-sponsored ethics and religion program – despite a court ruling allowing it to do so – because it receives public funds.
