Love Is Love? Ridiculous
“To love your neighbour as yourself is to be honest with them, as you would like someone to be honest with you.”
Love is love: Bill to Decriminalize Polygamy Passes
A bill which would drastically reduce the penalty for polygamy overwhelmingly passed the state House of Representatives in Salt Lake City on Wednesday. The legislation reduces the criminal penalty for plural marriages from a felony, punishable by up to five years in prison, to an infraction, equivalent to a parking ticket. According to the Salt Lake Tribune, the controversial bill cleared the House on a vote of 70-3, sending it back to the Utah Senate for another vote, where it will likely pass for a second time. The measure would then go to Governor Gary Herbert for his signature. Those…
Australia Post celebrates the rejection of biblically defined marriage, releases ‘Love Is Love’ themed stamps
Government-owned postal organisation Australia Post has announced it will release a series of LGBTQ-themed postal stamps to celebrate the legalisation of same-sex ‘marriage’ in Australia. The stamps will feature the phrase, “Love is Love”, along with LGBTQ rainbows and homosexual couples embracing and kissing each other. According to the Stamp Bulletin, “The stamp designs are celebratory, showing the highly recognisable rainbow colours and slogans synonymous with the Marriage Equality campaign.” The postal organisation has good reason to celebrate the 2017 Australian Marriage Law Postal Survey too. The taxpayer-funded mail-out reportedly created a $26.3 million revenue surge for the snail-mail business…
“Love is love” is a lie, here’s why
“Love is love” is a slogan that assuages all sexual sin. If “love is love” is the new moral standard, then adultery, promiscuity, bestiality, and a number of other sexual sins are not only justifiable, they are permissible. This is because “love is love” falsely elevates sexual sin to a morally superior position, where anyone who stands opposed to the assumed “love is love” standard, is belittled as “unloving and immoral”. Heterosexuals who spout “love is love” know that in the current climate, “love is love” covers a multitude of sexual sin, so why not jump on the bandwagon? Especially…
WATCH: ABC Kids teaching children that “love is love,” regardless of gender.
What is a family? According to ABC Kids, it’s whatever you dream it to be. Because after all, “Love is Love,” or so says a new children’s musical track played on the kids’ station. The song, titled “Family (Love is Love), is performed by the Teeny Tiny Stevies, and is designed to teach kids that families are different – some children have two mothers and a father that visits once a week, but that’s fine, because “love is love.” But what does that actually mean? The phrase “love is love” became popular in Australia during the same-sex marriage survey, but…
Love is love: Nobody believes that
If “love is love” is a sufficient enough reason to redefine marriage for same-sex couples, then it’s also a sufficient enough reason to redefine marriage for throuples. If “love” is the qualifier, and if we dare not impose our definition of love on others, then how can we prevent anyone from calling anything “marriage” and demanding equal recognition? Should we allow siblings to marry, provided they love each other? After all, love is love. What about the man from South Korea who married a pillow? Should we recognise this as a true marriage, or do we deny him that “human…
How Two Great Christian Thinkers Developed Their Love of Books
“Give yourself unto reading. The man who never reads will never be read; he who never quotes will never be quoted. He who will not use the thoughts of other men’s brains proves that he has no brains of his own. You need to read.”
Australians Slam “Love Your Neighbour, Just Not the Unvaxxed” Tone-Deaf Hypocrisy of Its Political Leaders
Acknowledging that Australians are not OK, and encouraging them to speak up, while at the same time blocking comments, only served to make the Prime Minister look like a cold-shouldered, indifferent hypocrite.
Why Resisting Tyrants is an Act of Love
Indeed, when a Christian’s best testimony to his neighbors is found in waiting patiently for governing officials to permit churches to gather again, thus denying Christ’s command to gather, we have a new instance of Corban—replacing the law of God with human traditions.
Disney To Release Woke Version of ‘Snow White’ Where Prince Charming Waits For Consent Before Giving “True Love’s Kiss”
The updated version, which will be released on Disney+ under the more appropriate title, White Privilege and the Seven Persons of Short Stature, will replace the controversial scene with the prince patiently waiting for Snow White’s consent.
Love at the Edge of the Abyss
While Socialism might masquerade as a social force for good, it stalks through the world devouring the most important, sacred parts of civilisation.
Why do Australians love Christmas?
Several years ago, Australia spent more on Christmas per capita than any other nation. The Americans are beating us this year, but we are still right up there. The average household in Australia will spend $969 each this Christmas, based on all expenses including gifts, food and decorations. That is a grand total of 18.8 billion dollars. And what about the fact that ‘Carols by Candlelight’ celebrations are held all throughout December and attended by several million Australians? Many of these people would never go to a church at all throughout the year but are happy to pack the esky…
Love: I do not think it means what you think it means
Those of you who were correctly raised will remember watching the Princess Bride (if truly correctly then many times), a movie that despite all of its ridiculousness is one of the most classic fantasy love tales ever told. You may also recall how Vizzini the scheming kidnapper keeps describing situations involving the witty hero Westley that is happening before his eyes as ‘inconceivable’. Eventually, the honourable and loveable Inigo Montoya eventually says ‘You keep using that word. I do not think it means what you think it means.’ Ah, how classic, such a fun movie, but oh what a great…
Abortion survivor: ‘The woman who should have loved me most tried to end my life’
When a woman in South Korea found out that she was two-months pregnant, she decided to have an abortion. Not long after undergoing the procedure, the woman realized the abortion had failed. She was still pregnant, and her unborn baby had survived the botched abortion attempt. The woman decided to give birth to the baby and Josiah Presley was born, but not without a severely maimed arm, now a constant reminder of his own mother’s failed attempt to have him killed in the womb. When Josiah was 13-months old, he was adopted by a loving family in the United States.…
WATCH: Sex-ed series tells pre-teen children, ‘You can show yourself love’ by masturbating
A vulgar sex-education web series targeting pre-teen children has encouraged their young viewers to masturbate as a form of self-love. The Toronto-based program, Sex-Ed School, which was picked up by production company Shaftesbury earlier this year, is aimed at providing a “safe space” for nine to 12-year-olds to talk about sex, transgenderism, hormone injections, genitals, and homosexuality. In an episode titled “Love is Love” co-hosts Nadine Thornhill and Eva Bloom asked a group of young children to discuss masturbation, saying: “It’s something really pleasant and loving that you can do for yourself and if it’s something that you enjoy, that’s…
Christians vs Antifa: ‘This is why I love Christians,’ says Avi Yemini
Thousands of pro-life Australians turned out in Melbourne this month to protest Victoria’s extreme abortion laws and show support for mothers and their babies. This year’s ‘March For The Babies’ marks the 10th anniversary of the protest, which has been held annually since the decriminalization of abortion in Victoria. Avi Yemini of TR News, who has said he does not hold a strong opinion on the issue of abortion, also attended the event. During the march, Yemini interviewed folks on both sides of the debate, and the contrast between the two groups couldn’t be starker. Following the protest, Yemini described…
WATCH: Man hugs his brother’s killer in court: “I forgive you… I love you… Give your life to Christ’
On September 6, 2018, Amber Guyger, an off-duty parole officer, entered her apartment complex in Dallas and saw, what she thought, was her apartment door partially open. When Guyger entered the apartment she found a man inside who she believed to be an intruder. She fired her gun at the man, killing him. But Guyger was not in her apartment. She had entered the apartment of Botham Jean, a 26-year-old accountant, which was situated directly above her own. This week Guyger was found guilty of murder and sentenced to 10 years in prison. In an astonishing display of grace, forgiveness…
Man cleared of murder after throwing his mother off a balcony, judge says: ‘You acted out of love’
A 53-year-old “devoted son” has been cleared of murder after throwing his 79-year-old mother off a 13-foot balcony to her death. Robert Knight was visiting his mother, June Knight, at Langley Lodge Care Home in Essex Westcliff when he carried her out a fire exit and threw her from a first-floor balcony, causing Mrs Knight ‘catastrophic’ brain injuries that resulted in her death. Following his arrest, Knight told authorities that he did not want to see his mother in pain after she had contracted a winter virus. A jury found that Knight had suffered from “loss of control” when he…
Snapchat celebrates Pride Month with pedophilia filter: “Love has no age”
The push to normalise pedophilia continues. This week, in celebration of LGBTQ Pride Month, Snapchat released their latest filter themed, “Love has no labels.” The filter generates a rainbow overlay along with a caption that includes phrases such as, “Love has no gender,” “Love has no sexuality,” and “Love has no age.” Yes, according to Snapchat, “love” transcends the age barrier, in the same way, it supposedly transcends gender and sexuality barriers. This is where it begins, folks. Little by little, they desensitise us to these things through gradual exposure, until one day, it just doesn’t shock us anymore. According…
Be a Good Hater: Righteous Anger and the Rule of Christian Love
The provocative quote of the week goes to, Charles Spurgeon: “Be a good hater.” The statement, “be a good hater” is a challenge to resist evil (James 4L7). To resist the morality of the tyrant or the ‘crowd which has no hands’ (Kierkegaard, The Crowd is Untruth) In context, it means: to abhor evil: to regard it with extreme repugnance. [In Latin, “abhor” is Odium: with hostility; “repugnance”: resist, be an adversary of evil.] Our present age has an almost absolute fear of hate, yet most would agree that “let love be genuine. Hate what is evil, cling to that…
