Israel Folau ‘in hot water’ for believing the Bible
Israel Folau, has caused controversy this week after posting an “offensive” and “homophobic” comment on his Instagram account. The rugby star’s initial Instagram post included a citation of James 1:2-4, which states: Consider it all joy when you encounter various trials, because the testing of your faith produces endurance… so that you may be lacking in nothing. In the comments section, a follower asked Folau, “what was gods [sic] plan for gay people?” Folau replied, consistent with the Bible and 2,000 years of Christian teaching, by saying, “HELL.. Unless they repent of their sins and turn to God.” Doesn't quite…
Google refuses to acknowledge Easter… for the 17th year in a row
Today is Francisco Balagtas’ 230th birthday. How do I know that? It’s all thanks to Google Doodles, “the fun, surprising, and sometimes spontaneous changes that are made to the Google logo to celebrate holidays, anniversaries, and the lives of famous artists, pioneers, and scientists.” Well, not all holidays are equal, it appears. The Google homepage was looking rather empty this Easter, with not so much as an egg in sight. Really? Now even the Bunny is offensive? It would seem Randy Smith was right in saying: Today people now feel uncomfortable when you mention the Easter Bunny. It’s not that…
WATCH: Muslim proselytizer explains the ethics of marrying children
Ali Dawah is an Islamic proselytizer “spreading the message of Islam and answering misconceptions.” He has close to 20k followers on Twitter, and almost 205k subscribers on YouTube. Last week Dawah explained the ethics behind child marriage: You asked me, would I allow my daughter to get married at nine. The analogy is wrong. Our teachings say the woman has to be sexually, mentally, and physically ready. If my daughter reaches the age of menstruation at nine years old, I would say, you are ready to get married, however, if she says, ‘Dad, I don’t want to get married,’ OK.…
Thousands of Iraqi Christians return home to celebrate Palm Sunday for the first time since the defeat of ISIS
The mainstream media don’t care much for Christians, so spread the news they won’t! Thousands of Christians in Qaraqosh have returned home to celebrate Psalm Sunday. This would be the first celebration in four years following the defeat of ISIS. The crowds sang, “King of kings and Lord of lords. Glory! Hallelujah!” as they walked through the streets waving palm and olive branches. The crowd eventually gathered around St John’s Church, as church leaders reportedly stood on the church rooftop to proclaim the gospel and lead the people in worship. Thanks be to God! Iraqi Christians in Qaraqosh, one of…
Tommy Robinson: ‘What we are seeing is blasphemy laws by the backdoor’
When Tommy Robinson suggested that the Quran contains at least 100 calls to violence, Twitter suspended his account. Permanently. Robinson comments in the video below: What we are seeing is blasphemy laws by the backdoor and they are all complicit. Twitter, our police, our courts, our Prime Minister, our entire government and media. All of them raise one hand in support of freedom of speech while they rip it out from underneath us with the other.
Was Jordan B Peterson right about Disney’s Frozen?
“Disney has developed tools and strategies for re-engineering what women should be interested in.” Jordan B Peterson has revealed a series of private messages that seem to confirm his claim that Disney’s Frozen is, in fact, “deeply propagandistic.” Peterson copped criticism earlier this month after bringing the charge against the popular children’s film. In an interview with Time, Peterson explained: [Frozen] attempted to write a modern fable that was a counter-narrative to a classic story like, let’s say, Sleeping Beauty – but with no understanding whatsoever of the underlying archetypal dynamics… There was an attempt to craft a moral message and to build…
Using your free speech doesn’t make you a champion of free speech
Earlier this week Liberty Victoria awarded Yassmin Abdel-Magied the 2018 Young Voltair Award. In a series of tweets, Abdel-Magied announced, “I won an award for Free Speech y’all. This one is for all those young Muslims and POC [people of colour] in Aus and around the world who know their equality is conditional, but know they need to speak anyway… And for all those who tried to silence me… Eat your hearts out.” This one is for all those young Muslims and POC in Aus and around the world who know their equality is conditional, but know they need to speak…
Conservative speakers arrested and banned from entering the UK
Conservative journalist, Lauren Southern, has been denied entry into the UK for criticising Islam during a previous visit. Border police in Calais detained Southern as she attempted to enter on a bus. The official notice of refusal claims Southern was “involved in the distribution of racist material in London.” Authorities deemed Southern “a threat to the fundamental interests of society and to the public policy of the United Kingdom.” Southern was stopped and investigated under Schedule 7 of the Terrorism Act 2000, which allows authorities broad and intrusive powers to stop, search and hold individuals “without any ground of suspecting…
Professor wishes a slow and painful death on Mark Latham as she looks forward to “a life without hate”
University of Melbourne professor, Marcia Langton, sent Mark Latham a vile message of hate last week, stating, “you so deserve a slow, painful death and humiliating obituaries eg ‘Australia celebrates as white supremacist, homophobic, far right wing arsehole finally dies’ ‘Australians look forward to a life without hate’.” Ironic much? @RealMarkLatham you so deserve a slow, painful death and humiliating obituaries eg “Australia celebrates as white supremacist, homophobic, far right wing arsehole finally dies” “Australians look forward to a life without hate” https://t.co/hxbmP2KUTL — Marcia Langton (@marcialangton) March 10, 2018 Latham has since responded to Langtons tweet: Marcia Langton: The…

Watch crowd boo transgender wrestler after winning girls’ wrestling final in seconds
Here is yet another element to transgenderism’s struggle with sports. A transgender wrestler has won the Texas girls’ Class 6A 110-pound (49kg) division for the second year in a row.

Has Donald Trump just proposed the best solution to school shootings?
President Donald Trump has taken to Twitter to put forward, what some believe, could be the most realistic solution to mass shootings in U.S. schools. So what do you think? Is this the best solution or is there a better one? I never said “give teachers guns” like was stated on Fake News @CNN & @NBC. What I said was to look at the possibility of giving “concealed guns to gun adept teachers with military or special training experience – only the best. 20% of teachers, a lot, would now be able to — Donald J.

Magda Szubanski: Redesign Oscar statue to something ‘less blokey’
Magda Szubanski has taken to Twitter to express, what she believes, is the “basics” of the #TimesUp movement: the masculine name and appearance of the Oscar statuette. Szubanski asked her followers why the award still looks like a “mandroid.” She went on to question if anyone had thought of renaming or redesigning the statue to “something less blokey… less, dare I say, binary.” Re #TimesUp let’s start with the basics Why does the #Oscar statue still look like a mandroid? Has anyone thought of renaming him ?? Something less obviously blokey perhaps. And maybe redesign the statue? Again, something less…

Calls for #MeToo movement to be added to the school curriculum
There are calls for sexual harassment lessons to be added to the school curriculum with experts warning the #MeToo movement will be a major talking point when class resumes. In the video below Dr Justin Coulson says: Why not bring this broader social movement, or the #TimesUp movement, or any of those things that are going on right now into the conversation.

Save Australia Day: “Not all aboriginal people feel like victims”
Five local counsels have decided against marking 26 January as Australia Day following debate about whether the day should be moved to a less controversial date. In response, Mark Latham and Jacintha Price have together launched the Save Australia Day campaign which will be run on radio and television. Latham has argued that 26 January has always been a vital date in Australian history: Ill-informed Leftists are spreading the furphy that Australia Day on 26 January is a recent invention. In fact, the early settlers celebrated each 26 January anniversary and in 1818 (the 30 year anniversary) Governor Macquarie…
“Oprah Winfrey can raise our moral standing in the world”
Oprah Winfrey’s speech at the 75th Golden Globes on Sunday has sparked calls for a possible presidential run in 2020. During the speech, Winfrey lamented: …we all have lived, too many years in a culture broken by brutally powerful men. For too long, women have not been heard or believe if they dared to speak their truth to the power of those men. Rev Jesse Jackson Sr took to Twitter to praise Winfrey as “eminently qualified to be President” who can “raise our moral standing in the world.” Celebrities soon jumped on board in favor of the idea, with TMZ…
