You really need help. You seem to be getting more wacked out as time goes on. Maybe a local Protestant/Bible believer or minister could help you. Just a suggestion. Nobody is forcing you to go for help but it would be wise. quote What does the Bible say about sexual abuse against children? Caring for children is spoken of highly in the Bible. For example, James 1:27 says that caring for children in need pleases God: “Religion that God our Father accepts as pure and faultless is this: to look after orphans and widows in their distress and to keep oneself from being polluted by the world.” Ephesians 6:4 says, “Fathers, do not exasperate your children; instead, bring them up in the training and instruction of the Lord.” Psalm 127:3 calls children “a heritage from the Lord.” Jesus’ interactions with children (notably in Matthew 18) demonstrate the value God places on them. The Bible speaks often about caring for the weak, poor, and needy—and this would include at-risk children (Proverbs 14:31; 17:5; 19:17; 31:8–9). Followers of Christ are consistently called to love others. Molesting a child can in no way be mistaken for love. The Bible also speaks strongly against sexual sin. Sex is a gift given by God meant for marriage. Sexual perversion of all kinds is soundly condemned. Sexually assaulting a child is never justifiable; it is always wrong. unquote What does the Bible say about child sexual abuse? | GotQuestions.org

Hate to have to tell you the truth, but you are an opponent of God and Christianity. The only reason you smear me is because you hate the truth. You want me to tell everyone including yourself that you are good boys on the way to heaven when the opposite is true. Christians don't win popularity contests for telling the truth from the Bible. That's just a fact. If you want to be soothed by Christians you will have to find someone else to do that. That's not how Biblical Christianity is. The truth is uncomfortable. The message from the Bible is exactly what I have been saying. Everyone is a sinner and has a corrupt heart and needs to be born again. Read the Bible. Don't believe me if you think I am so wrong. On your last point, the world is mainly pagan. Canada is by far mostly pagan.

Taxes are Socialism and forced wealth redistribution. If we didn't have carbon taxes, gas taxes, and many other taxes for this and that, there would be more money in people's bank accounts and more money to donate to charitable organizations to help the poor. Simple as that. Forced confiscation of money by government (Socialism) also wastes a large amount of it on bureaucracy which must be paid with all kinds of benefits and pension plans that many other people outside government do not receive. I know in Saskatchewan the government gives men a half of a year off work with full salary when the man's wife has a baby. Who is private industry gets anything like that? Six months maternity leave for the men????? Give us a break.

" The term Judeo-Christian is used to group Christianity and Judaism together, either in reference to Christianity's derivation from Judaism, Christianity's borrowing of Jewish scripture to constitute the "Old Testament" of the Christian Bible, or due to the parallels or commonalities in Judaeo-Christian ethics shared by the two religions. The term "Judæo Christian" first appeared in the 19th century as a word for Jewish converts to Christianity. In the United States, the term was widely used during the Cold War in an attempt to suggest that the United States had a unified American identity which was opposed to communism." Judeo-Christian - Wikipedia The term Judeo-Christian can be applied to early immigrants because most of the came from Europe and had some, at least nominally Judeo-Christian beliefs. Our laws and system was built on those beliefs as opposed to Marxism or Communism ideology.

Ontario middle school teacher reports student violence on the increase. We have been told the diversity, equity, inclusion agenda would help prevent bullying and violence. What we are seeing is the opposite. The sexual orientation - gender identity ideology is leading us down the path of increased violence in schools. The reason is because they took God, the Bible and prayer out of schools and brought in the woke, materialistic, humanistic ideology of the self and feeding the flesh where anything goes. Is it any surprise students are becoming more self-centred and aggressive? Of course it is no surprise. So much for the woke agenda. It is destroying society.

" What Does the Bible Say About Socialism? Written by admin in Atheism,Bible,Bible Verses,Questions Socialism directly opposes everything about God, the Bible and Christianity. And it’s not difficult to see it if you’ve got an open mind. Socialism is allied with the failed philosophy of materialism and the bankrupt religion of atheism. It destroys everything it touches. Socialism destroys families, economies and nations. And more. The Bible -both in the Hebrew Old Testament and Greek New Testament- builds up both the family and the nation. Every nation that has embraced the Bible has seen great and lasting benefits. Followers of Jesus Christ have transformed the world through scientific, medical and technical achievements based on the Bible. They have transformed cities and nations with Biblical precepts. Socialism does the opposite. Every time. So what does the Bible have to say about Socialism? The Bible tells us that Socialism is slavery and thievery. And anybody who has lived under Socialism can confirm it. Socialism destroys the Biblical work ethic and confiscates assets earned by producers and gives them to non-producers. This de-motivates producers and creates a cycle of sloth, poverty and dependence." What Does the Bible Say About Socialism? – Faith Founded on Fact Jesus teaches individual charity, not state-ordained Socialism. We have food banks which are at least partially funded by individual donations. That is a good thing. But the state ideology of wealth redistribution is stealing and is Socialism. In fact, Trudeau squanders taxpayer money all over the world and to every group he can think of that might earn a few votes.

ER doctors are reporting many patients coming into ERs are being forced to wait 12, 24, 48, and sometimes even 72 hours before being treated. This appalling situation is resulting in deaths of patients who are waiting for treatment. In many cases the condition of these patients gets worse as they are forced to wait. Some die in hallways or waiting rooms of ERs. This is the result of a failing public health care system that is run by politicians who do not understand or put significant necessary funds and attention into managing the health care system. It has gotten to the point now where politicians are just trying to put out fires so to speak as they flare up here and there. They have lost control of the whole system.

This is not a joke. This is a fact. Canadians need to wake up. The Department of Heritage which apparently is based in Quebec is now receiving submissions and planning to change museums across Canada to woke museums (or indoctrination centres more accurately). This is a form of social engineering, teaching Canadians how to think in the new woke ideology. It is a form of Marxist top down mind control at taxpayer's expense. Orwell's 1984 Big Brother is coming for us now.

Alright let's sort this out. 1. Do you believe homosexuality is a sin? 2. Do you accept the Bible as God's absolute truth and rule for what a Christian believes? 3. You mentioned people would know Christians by their actions. Since we can't really know much about people's actions on a forum, all we have to go by is their words. So why are you mentioning "knowing Christians by their actions" here? What is your point?

"Cultural hegemony refers to domination or rule maintained through ideological or cultural means. It is usually achieved through social institutions, which allow those in power to strongly influence the values, norms, ideas, expectations, worldview, and behavior of the rest of society." This is how the NDP, liberals and progressives operate in Canada. They use their political power or positions they hold to impose cultural hegemony or domination of their ideology on public schools students and the rest of society wherever possible. In the public school system, education departments even claim it is necessary to counter bullying and promote inclusion. None of them have explained why they cannot just teach respect for everyone regardless of the individual kids personal beliefs. Why sexual orientation or beliefs have to be made front and centre in education and the SOGI agenda imposed on everyone is hard to understand. The idea that it is necessary to prevent bullying and promote inclusion I believe is false. It is a convenient excuse used by activists. There is nothing stopping them from teaching respect for everyone without including sexual orientation and gender identity in the curriculum. I think there is a lot of deception going on. As I explained in other posts, Satan is the professional in deception and lying.

Why should I accept it as right or proper? You might be able to get away with saying that in a Communist country or some kind of secularist dictatorship, but we are supposed to be living in a democratic country with freedom of religion, freedom speech and freedom of beliefs. When you say I "have to accept that", you are basically saying I have no freedom and must accept your ideology. Sorry, can't do that. It is not paranoid fantasy to believe DEI and cultural Marxism is evil and perversion. Sorry you are on the wrong end of this. Numbers or polls do not determine what is right or wrong. History proves it.

Many politicians, particularly Liberals and NDP or lefties or progressives, and their followers promote ideologies that promote perversion and things that fit in with their cultural Marxist thinking and ideology. One of these ideologies which is causing major divisions in some places is the DEI ideology. Liberals /progressives hide behind this ideology and use it as a wedge issue against more traditional family-oriented voters. This DEI refers to diversity, equity, and inclusion. On the surface such words sound reasonable and fair. But the problem is the ideology becomes a kind of god and is used to reject all other beliefs including our historic Judeo-Christian civilization. This is problematic in the extreme. Children are being force fed perversion in public schools and taught that anything is "normal" because it is being inclusive, equal and diverse. That is where this becomes an ideology of extreme evil and destructive of normal society, marriage between a mother and father, and normal relationships. DEI also destroys free enterprise hiring by merit when businesses and government are forced to hire based on this DEI ideology. " 8 Beware lest any man spoil you through philosophy and vain deceit, after the tradition of men, after the rudiments of the world, and not after Christ." Colossians 2:8 KJV

Mass absences break out at London schools as Pride flag flies
blackbird replied to CdnFox's topic in Federal Politics
This very revealing website is worth repeating again. Did you know: "The Church of Satan is a religious organization dedicated to the religion of LaVeyan Satanism as codified in The Satanic Bible. The Church of Satan was established at the Black House in San Francisco, California, on Walpurgisnacht, April 30, 1966, by Anton Szandor LaVey, who was the church's High Priest until his death in 1997.[2] In 2001, Peter H. Gilmore was appointed to the position of high priest, and the church's headquarters were moved to Hell's Kitchen, Manhattan, New York City. Members do not believe that Satan literally exists and do not worship him.[3] Instead, Satan is viewed as a positive archetype embracing the Hebrew root of the word "Satan" as "adversary", who represents pride, carnality, and enlightenment, and of a cosmos which Satanists perceive to be motivated by a "dark evolutionary force of entropy that permeates all of nature and provides the drive for survival and propagation inherent in all living things".[2] The Devil is embraced as a symbol of defiance against the Abrahamic faiths which LaVey criticized for what he saw as the suppression of humanity's natural instincts. In his book, The Satanic Bible, the Satanist's concept of a god is described as the Satanist's true "self"— a projection of his or her own personality, not an external deity.[4] Satan is used as a representation of personal liberty and individualism.[5] Church of Satan - Wikipedia Noteworthy: Members do not believe Satan literally exists. Satan represents pride, carnality, and enlightenment. Members believe the natural instincts of people should be promoted. Personal liberty and individualism is worshiped. -
Whatever way we look at it, as Johnson reiterated, most of the facts about what is going will not be revealed to the public. The problem is we have national security law which apparently they use to redact or keep almost everything from the public knowing. The Liberals have sucked up to China for years. I don't see that changing.

Teaching pre-teens about sex is a perversion and a form of abuse.
-
Teaching kids the sexual orientation and gender identity agenda is just as wicked as pedophilia. It is child abuse much the same as child molesting. Straight from the Devil. The existence of pedophile priests does not justify child abuse by indoctrinating perversion in young minds.

Except that it is a major industry in western Canada and creates hundreds of thousands of jobs and spin-off jobs that support the industry and billions in economic activity and revenue for the provincial and federal governments. It means economic prosperity for tens of thousands, maybe millions of Canadians.

For those who accept Christ as Lord and Savior in this life, there is joy and glory when Jesus takes us home. God decides when our time has come, not man. For those who resist or oppose God and his written revelation, it does not look good. "8 In flaming fire taking vengeance on them that know not God, and that obey not the gospel of our Lord Jesus Christ: 9 Who shall be punished with everlasting destruction from the presence of the Lord, and from the glory of his power; 10 When he shall come to be glorified in his saints, and to be admired in all them that believe (because our testimony among you was believed) in that day. " 2 Thessalonians 1:8-10 KJV

Why do you support Satan's agenda to brainwash kids with perversion? Do you know what Jesus said about offending the little ones? Matthew 18:6 - "But whoso shall offend one of these little ones which believe in me, it were better for him that a millstone were hanged about his neck, and that he were drowned in the depth of the sea."
-
We know the DEI(diversity, equity, inclusion) woke agenda of perversion is clearly the work of the Devil from the pit of Hell. All "Bible thumping Fun-da-mental-ists" as you call them, conservatives, and any other normal person should oppose brainwashing children with books of perversion.

I'm wondering if there is a special place in hell for Satan worshipers. Hell won't be a fun place.. " Jesus spoke of hell as “eternal fire” (Matt. 25:41) and “eternal punishment” (Matt. 25:46). In Matthew 25:46, the same word—eternal—is used to describe eternal life for the righteous and the eternal punishment of hell for the unrighteous. According to Jesus, hell will be eternal. HELL IS MORE TERRIBLE THAN WE CAN IMAGINE. The images of fire (Matt. 25:41), darkness (Matt. 8:12; 22:13; 25:30), the weeping and gnashing of teeth ” (Matt. 8:12; 13:42,50; 22:13; 24:51; 25:30; Luke 13:28), and being cut into pieces speak of the horror of hell. Are these vivid images of hell Jesus literal or figurative? If they are meant to be figurative, then the imagery is pointing beyond what human language can convey. In other words, hell—if not a literal fire and literal darkness—is immeasurably worse than those images and inexpressibly worse than we can even imagine or describe. As heaven is more wonderful than our finite minds can comprehend, hell is more horrible than we can comprehend." What did Jesus say about hell? - Explore the Bible (lifeway.com) Odd that I have been scorned and mocked for "fire and brimstone" talk. Seems the Devil doesn't want it to be known.

Does not believe Satan exists? 2. Would you say you embrace a defiance against Bible believers? ( see your comment above) 3. Would you say "Bible thumper fundamentalists" suppress humanity's natural instincts? 4. Do you support totally free liberty and individualism of everyone to follow their natural instincts? If you can answer yes to these four questions, you may wish to reconsider your beliefs to see if that is really how you want to be viewed, someone in total opposition to God and his word.

That post was a long time ago. I am not entirely against the convoy. I understand Trudeau was or is a kind of dictator. I am very much opposed to Trudeau's liberal ideology, globalism, and progressivism to begin with and I do sympathize with some of the protester's beliefs.
