Quote:Christians react to ‘disgraceful’ Mardi Gras image: ‘Defund the event’

The Sydney Gay and Lesbian Mardi Gras has become embroiled in a similar controversy to the one that derailed the opening ceremony at the Paris Olympics.

A controversial image of a prominent drag queen pointing a spear at a person appearing to be dressed up as Jesus has drawn a furious reaction from Christians across Australia.

The Australian Christian Lobby is now calling for the event to be defunded.

“NSW taxpayers and Sydney ratepayers are being forced to fund an event that promotes debauchery, sexual fetishes, and now — religious mockery and blasphemy,” it said in a statement.

“Almost half of Australians identify with the Christian faith — the very faith that has given our society liberty, democracy, and a legacy of charity for the poor and needy.

“It is simply unacceptable for government money to go towards an event that ridicules the deeply held beliefs of millions of Australians.”

“It is disgraceful that people’s religion is being openly mocked with an individual dressed like an Aboriginal stripper pretending to spear Jesus,” Cumberland councillor Steve Christou added.

“Any other religion this would be considered a hate crime. No religion deserves to be mocked. Why is Government taxpayer money funding these festivals.”

teachings of the Bible are so muddled and self-contradictory that it was possible for Christians to happily burn heretics alive for five long centuries. It was even possible for the most venerated patriarchs of the Church, like St. Augustine and St. Thomas Aquinas, to conclude that heretics should be tortured (Augustine) or killed outright (Aquinas). Martin Luther and John Calvin advocated the wholesale murder of heretics, apostates, Jews, and witches. - Sam Harris, "Letter To A Christian Nation"

Quote:Air Force Academy's Muslim cadets denied accommodation during Ramadan

As Muslims around the world mark the month of Ramadan, some cadets at the Air Force Academy may need to push through rigorous physical training without food or water or forgo a few days of the holy fast.

In recent years, Muslim cadets have been excused from physical training to allow them to participate in Ramadan.

The cadet said he planned to fast, forgoing food and water from sun-up to sundown, during the physical training event following the academy’s decision.

“I would rather pass out than not participate,” he said of the importance of Ramadan.

The academy’s decision marks the first denial of a Ramadan accommodation in the last few years, the cadet said, while at the same time the school changed a major spring training event.

Texas pastor brags online about his school having the state’s lowest measles vaccination rate: ‘We celebrate it’

Texas pastor is celebrating his Christian church’s private school having the state’s lowest vaccination rate for measles amid a deadly outbreak of the highly contagious virus.

Mercy Culture Church Lead Pastor Landon Schott posted a video to the platform on Wednesday to commend the K-12 preparatory school.

“I just want to congratulate all the family members of MC Prep that embrace freedom of health, and they’re not allowing government or science projects to affect how you live and lead your life,” Schott told his more than 47,000 Instagram followers.

Schott’s remarks, which have been shared by multiple news outlets, have resulted in criticism from other social media users.

However, others, including the school, wrote comments of support.

“We love it! 👏 #1,” the school said.

I'm not sure how I could live with myself if I encouraged families to not vaccinate their kids and one of them died from a disease that could have been prevented with a vaccination.
I'm not anti-Christian. I'm anti-stupid.

The sad thing is, the people who rant against vaccination are probably not the ones who will suffer as a result. (not sure about the law in the US, but could they be sued for damages resulting from their actions?)

Christians are trying to summon Jesus by ethnic cleansing

Quote:Christians Are Pressing Trump to Clear a Path for Israel to Annex the West Bank

Evangelical Christian leaders who delivered votes to President Trump are now pressing him to declare that Israel can claim ownership of the West Bank, based on a promise God made to the Jews in the Bible.

Prominent evangelical supporters of Mr. Trump are mounting a multipronged approach to pressure the president — making appearances in Israel, petitioning the White House, pushing their ideas at a key evangelical conference and building congressional backing.

Some of America’s leading evangelicals, including Ralph Reed, Tony Perkins and Mario Bramnick, visited Jerusalem on Tuesday to publicly back Israel’s sovereignty of the West Bank.

They refer to the West Bank with the biblical names of Judea and Samaria. They believe that Christians who assist in fulfilling this biblical pledge are blessed and that the establishment of the state of Israel indicates other biblical prophesies will follow that most notably includes an apocalypse that will lead to a second coming of Jesus Christ.

“We Christians are calling on our beloved President Trump and his team to aggressively remove all barriers to Israel’s sovereignty over all the land, including Judea and Samaria,” said Terri Copeland Pearsons, an influential pastor who produced the television program of her father, the televangelist Kenneth Copeland, and now serves as the president of his eponymous Bible college in Texas.

The demand is meant to help build support for a controversial effort promoted by some in Israel to annex land that is home to roughly three million Palestinians and now about half a million Israeli settlers.

Much of the world considers Israel’s West Bank settlements, which have expanded rapidly in recent years, a violation of international law.

Meanwhile, Muslims are not keen on summoning Jesus.

Quote:Muslim nations reject Trump's call to empty the Gaza Strip of its Palestinian population

Foreign ministers from Muslim nations on Saturday rejected calls by U.S. President Donald Trump to empty the Gaza Strip of its Palestinian population and backed a plan for an administrative committee of Palestinians to govern the territory to allow reconstruction to go ahead.

In a statement put out Saturday, the gathering threw its support behind a plan to rebuild Gaza put forward by Egypt and backed by Arab states, including Saudi Arabia and Jordan, aimed at countering Trump’s call. The OIC groups 57 nations with largely Muslim populations.

The ministers said they rejected “plans aimed at displacing the Palestinian people individually or collectively … as ethnic cleansing, a grave violation of international law and a crime against humanity.” They also condemned “policies of starvation” that they said aim to push Palestinians to leave.
