Police ban Bible from Christian Cafe

Say it isn't so! Alas, it is. It does not matter what the law really says, what matters is that police, so phobic themselves of complainers, decide to over-react in carrying out their duties. But it takes time and money to stand up and defend one's rights.   Just ask this cafe owner (or for that matter, the Christian printer in Toronto a few years ago).

Here is a case that common sense says is inane. Take a look. But go beyond the details of the facts, and look at the "truth" associated therein -- the significance and impact of the story. Hey, if our goal is to be hated by the world, this Christian cafe owner in the U.K. is right on target. Pray for him and those that are defending him. And be alert for similar advances by our Enemy in your own arena.

And by the way, if I find something offensive in a retail establishment, I don't go there.  Perhaps this complainer can choose to get his/her coffee jolt somewhere else.

Californians Banned From Studying Bible in Home -- This is Outrageous.

Chances are you won't hear much about this on CNN, so try to catch it here. This is out and out craziness -- all working towards thwarting and ultimately preventing people from being Christians. Yes, we're still a long way off. But jut how far? Take a look at this. And do something now.

The issue for me is this: I understand the need for a permit if one is running a church at home.  But having an "informal" bible study or even one that is made up of church people (that are registered elsewhere) should not be included.  Prayer in the home will be banned next if this trend continues.   Another issue to consider is this:  what does this mean for the future of the "house church movement"?

Paris Leads the Way in Saying NO to Muslims, but nicely. Is the tide turning to reasonableness?

This is an interesting story about saying 'no' to a religious group.  The Americans and Canadians say it to Christians all the time, but seldom are they able to say 'no' to those of the Islamic faith.  There must be a reason for that, but that's another story.

Anyway, the city of Paris has banned "prayers on the street" and the new law was clearly aimed at Muslims.  Two mosques are involved and the city has offered to rent them some additional space.  Everyone seems to be cooperating.

I believe most would cooperate once they realize that a 'no' is a 'no' and that we need to help find alternatives.   This is also a good story.  Take a look.

If They Did This in America, Hollywood wouldn't be publishing too many films.

Maybe what is taking place in India is not so bad after all. I mean it is one way to refocus our society on the value of family. Take a look at the details. The truth is that this should never be the case in the first place. But hey, actors are human.

Now here's a thought. What if we put a ban on anyone in any profession for say three years if they had an affair in that profession? Sorry, just got carried away in my thinking. Take a look at this lovely story from India.

Italians Joining Belgians & French in "Off With The Veil"

The veil that some women wear in public is loosing its legal status in several countries in Europe. But then again, the Europeans were always much further ahead than us North Americans when it comes to real fashion. Is this a trend? Is the world slowly saying enough is enough? You be the judge. This one move does not indicate that on its own, but perhaps when we look at things on a bigger scale, there may be a glimmer of hope for stopping a tsunami of unwanted change for many of us.
