Major Fire at First Baptist Dallas

Posted on by

They say war is politics by other means. The same may go for this:

A raging fire tore through a historic Texas megachurch Friday night, collapsing its red-brick chapel built in 1890.

The blaze began just after 6 p.m. in First Baptist Dallas’ secondary chapel known as the Historic Sanctuary, which is tucked between the church’s larger worship centers.

By the grace of God, no one was injured.

A week of vacation bible school for 2,000 kids ages 3 to 12 had just concluded earlier in the day.

Here’s what might have rendered the church highly combustible:

[Pastor Robert] Jeffress is a major evangelical support of former President Donald Trump, having joined his Evangelical Advisory Board and the White House Faith Initiative in 2016, PJ Media reported.

As Ian Fleming would say,

“Once is happenstance. Twice is coincidence. Three times is enemy action.”

Given the widespread arson and vandalism directed at American churches following the repeal of Roe v. Wade and the epidemic of church burnings in Canada inspired by a hate hoax, we are well past three times.

Satanists Want to Be School Counselors

Posted on by

The Republican Party is often associated with Christianity, for example, by moonbats who sputter venomously about “christofascists,” the “religious right,” and “Christian nationalists.” What religion do you suppose could be associated with Democrats? Here’s a hint:

Florida Satanists are volunteering to fill school counselor roles after Gov. Ron DeSantis (R) signed a law allowing religious chaplains into public schools amid staffing shortages.

If gay marriage is the equivalent of holy matrimony, then devil-worshipers are the equivalent of chaplains.

Back when DeSantis signed the bill in April, he described Satanism as “not a religion” and said its members would not be allowed to participate in the program.

But Lucien Greaves of The Satanic Temple says it is so a religion, protected by the First Amendment.

Maybe I could get out of paying taxes by declaring countermoonbattery to be a religion.

The Florida move allowing chaplains to serve as public school counselors comes as more states are aiming to inject Christianity into public school environments, including by mandating that the Bible or Ten Commandments be taught in classrooms.

The idea of presumably using the courts to impose satanic school counselors is to counter this encouraging trend on behalf of the Democrat base.

Considering the transsexualization of children that occurs in public schools, there may be some satanic counselors already.

Coeur d’Alene Shows How to Respond to Tyranny

Posted on by

California moonbats must be colonizing Idaho the way they did Oregon and Washington. In Coeur d’Alene, local bureaurats banned the Cross:

Coeur d’Alene Chamber of Commerce recently changed their policies to prohibit religious symbols and flags in their annual 4th of July parade.

Liberals quickly seize control of local government, driven by their compulsion to boss other people around. But the native population has not yet been displaced:

Not being Christian is no excuse for not carrying a cross if liberals tell you that you can’t.

Hostility to the religion that has served as the backbone of Western Civilization for 2,000 years is not limited to the termites who have seized control of Coeur d’Alene. The rot reaches to the top of the federal government. In the official tweet below, the Biden Regime attempts to scare its base into voting by warning that Christians might hamper the killing of inconvenient babies. The symbolism underscores that the Democratic Party is not merely wrong but evil:

Nothing is more ominous to a moonbat than the Cross. It works on them the same way it does on vampires in horror movies and for the same reason.

Praying Rosary Forbidden in Spain

Posted on by

When the government commands people not to pray, there is a problem. From Spain:

Pedro Sanchez’s government has told the organisers of the daily Rosary in Madrid that they will not be allowed to gather in the city on June 8th of June 9th due to a ‘day of reflection’ and the election day.

It comes after already fining its leader thousands for praying in public.

Praying the rosary was banned outside Sanchez’s commie HQ last fall. The context was opposition to amnesty for Catalan separatist coup plotters.

To the north, a British subject was recently fined for allegedly praying silently. The context there was opposition to abortion.

Contexts will come and go; criminalization of Christianity will remain, so long as leftists have the whip hand.

Episcopal Church Replaces St. George With LGBTism

Posted on by

After a church has been infiltrated and subverted, it no longer exists to worship God but on the contrary to worship sin. The Episcopal Church has made this explicit:

From the Office of Public Affairs:

In affirmation and celebration of The Episcopal Church’s LGBTQ+ members, the Office of Communication is pleased to unveil a new Pride shield available online for churchwide use.

It is not LGBTetc members that are being celebrated, or the church would help them redeem themselves. It is their behavior. Church members are called upon to revere a symbol for sexual perversion in place of the Cross.

The social engineers are at war with both Christianity and Western history. They removed the Cross of Saint George that was the main feature of the original shield logo. Not the Bee is not pleased:

THEY ERASED THE 500-YEAR-HISTORY OF THE ENGLISH REFORMATION THAT ESTABLISHED THEIR DENOMINATION, BUILT UPON THE MARTYRDOM OF A 1,700-YEAR-OLD SAINT WHO DIED FOR JESUS CHRIST, AND REPLACED IT WITH THE GAY COMMIE RAINBOW.

Saint George has been vaporized.

Fined for Silent Thoughtcrime in UK

Posted on by

Under absolute tyranny, thoughtcrime is literally crime — even if it goes unexpressed. From formerly great Britain:

Sebastian Vaughan-Spruce, a 44-year-old landscape gardener and pro-life activist, was fined on May 16 in Birmingham, England over suspicion of his silent thoughts in violation of the “buffer zone” regulations enforced by local authorities…

He carried no sign and remained completely silent until approached by officers, in which he clarified he was not praying silently in his head.

Yes, but can he prove he wasn’t praying silently?

When he asked officers what his alleged crime was, they asked him to move elsewhere.

Vaughan-Spruce knows perfectly well what his ongoing crime is:

“Others were present there at the same time, yet I was singled out because of the beliefs I happen to hold,” he said.

Being known to respect the sanctity of innocent human life makes him subject to a PSPO:

The so-called “buffer zones” are part of a Public Spaces Protection Order (PSPO) implemented by Birmingham authorities, which criminalizes individuals perceived to be “engaging in any act of approval or disapproval or attempted act of approval or disapproval” in relation to abortion, including through “verbal or written means, prayer or counseling,” the press release states.

But if you want to shriek at the top of your lungs in support of Hamas terrorists, have at it.

He isn’t the first Vaughan-Spruce to run afoul of the Thought Police:

After a six-month investigation, police in England decided not to bring charges against Isabel Vaughan-Spruce, the director of the UK March for Life and sister of Sebastian Vaughan-Spruce. Ms. Vaughan-Spruce had told police she “might” be praying silently when they asked why she was standing on a public street near an abortion facility that was included in a PSPO.

It isn’t necessary to follow through on charges and find thought criminals guilty. The process is the punishment.

To ensure that authorities do not suspect you of forbidden thoughts, it would be prudent to loudly advocate abortion, sexual depravity, mass Third World immigration, and the rest of the leftist agenda at every opportunity.

Soft tyranny is still tyranny.

Court Forces Christian Institutions to Fund Abortion

Posted on by

Although the greatest threat to Christianity is subversion from within, its enemies still lay siege to it from without. For example:

New York’s highest court ruled on May 21 that it would uphold legislation requiring insurance companies to cover abortions.

This forces anyone providing health insurance to pay to snuff out innocent life in accordance with the proclivities of the morally depraved ruling class — including those who regard it as a grave moral sin.

The Diocese of Albany plans to appeal to the US Supreme Court:

The Diocese argued that “regulatory action by the state to require religious organizations to provide and pay for coverage of abortion in their employee health plans” is “unconstitutional” and “involves government entanglement in the fundamental rights of free exercise of faith and conscience.”

The effect of the ruling is to coerce the Church to abandon its own credibility by participating in sin that it explicitly condemns. Leftist-infested courts may as well issue a decree that priests must publicly praise Satan.

Catholic School Students Asked to Pose Naked for Hamas

Posted on by

Christians are told they should abandon scripture in favor of liberalism because “tolerance,” as if tolerance were inherently good. But tolerance comes at the expense of standards. Too much of it and you end up with this:

Martin Gardey de Soos, a teacher at a private Catholic secondary school in Drôme [France], is under investigation for ‘attempted seduction of minors’ for allegedly asking his pupils to pose naked ‘against the war in Palestine’.

He allegedly encouraged students to post their naked pictures on social media. How this was supposed to help Hamas is unclear. He describes himself as a “devout Catholic, comedian and pacifist.”

No doubt “Brother” Christian Matson would also describe herself as a devout Catholic. Then again, she also describes herself as a man.
