According to PETA, humans eating other humans is the same as humans eating steak, fish, or chicken. More lunacy from the radical left.
Financial Mirror | Kenneth Dean | Jan. 11, 2008
Sheriff’s officials were astounded Thursday by a letter [from PETA] requesting the man accused of murdering his girlfriend and possibly participating in cannibalism be placed on a vegetarian diet to keep him from being “involved in any senseless killing” while incarcerated. [Read more…]

The Cyprus Church intends to take Turkey to the European Court of Human Rights for preventing the restoration of looted Orthodox churches in the northern Turkish occupied areas of Cyprus and for its continuing refusal to allow access to the Christian Orthodox pilgrims for worship. [Read more…]
The totalitarian impulses of the leftists ruling California are bearing fruit and further encroach on our liberties.

There is nothing wrong with your thermostat. Do not attempt to adjust the temperature. We are controlling your power consumption. If we wish to make it hotter, we will turn off your air conditioner. If we wish to make it cooler, we will turn off your heater. For the next millennium, sit quietly and we will control your home temperature. [Read more…]

The financially and demographically struggling National Council of Churches (NCC) is mulling over a new “Social Creed for the 21st Century” that will succinctly articulate its left-leaning political activism. Many of the NCC’s heterodox officials and activist supporters could not affirm traditional Christian theological creeds. For them, political creeds are the desired alternative. [Read more…]
Evidence of more problems with the universal “macro-evolutionary” theory. It seems beetles are also exempt from evolution. They join the mighty cockroach, horseshoe crab, and many other species who stopped progressing millions of years ago.

Wait, don’t squash that beetle! Its lineage predates dinosaurs. New research hints that modern-day versions of the insects are far older than any tyrannosaur that trod the Earth. [Read more…]
High property taxes in Greenburgh, NY are placing drastic burderns on its senior citizens. Retirees with modest incomes who own their own homes face outrageous property tax bills that threaten their ownership rights and their retirement. One example is Audrey Davison who lives alone and gets a $620 Social Security check each month and owes $12,000/year in property taxes.
Rather than slashing the astronomically high property taxes or eliminating them, the town is offering instead to make its retirees gov’t indebted servants at $7/hour in order to pay off their taxes. This is indeed another dreadful consequence of leftist, big government policies gone wild. Real property rights are continuing to erode in the US, while our march toward communism accelerates.

Greek Orthodox Church of America | Archbishop Demetrios | Dec. 25, 2007
On this glorious day of the Feast of the Nativity of our Lord God and Savior Jesus Christ we celebrate the truly historical, universal, and eternal event of His Incarnation. It is historical, for at the divinely appointed time He entered our human history by being conceived and formed in the womb of the Virgin Mary, and was born of her in a cave in Bethlehem. It is universal because the Son of God, the divine Logos of Creation, took upon himself human flesh and blood so that He might redeem us and all of the universe from the burden of sin and death.
His Incarnation The Nativity of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ and birth has eternal significance because through His life, we are offered life, not just a mortal and earthly life, but unending life. “For God so loved the world that He gave His only Son, that whoever believes in Him should not perish but have eternal life” (John 3:16).

OrthodoxyToday | Partriarch Bartholomew of Constantinople | Dec. 25, 2007
Christ is born, glorify Him; Christ comes from heaven, meet Him.
Beloved brothers and children in the Lord, It is with great joy that our Church calls us to glorify God for His loving and personal presence on earth in the divine-human hypostasis of Christ Jesus, one of the three persons of the Holy Trinity.
We must, therefore, examine very carefully the true and life-giving significance of the incarnation of the Son and Word of God. First, it reveals to humanity that God is personal and is made manifest to us as a person, just as He has also created us as persons. Second, it reveals to us that God embraces us with His love.

During the Christmas season, our thoughts turn to the source of joy and hope born in a humble manger on a holy night more than 2,000 years ago. Each year, Christians everywhere celebrate this single life that changed the world and continues to change hearts today. [Read more…]
