“There is nothing democratic about human rights commissions. They can be better described as a ” Supreme Conflict of Interest.” Consider: The Alberta Human Rights Commission hands out tax dollars in the form of public grants to promote very controversial social issues and at the same time they have the authority to rule on speech and punish opinion via their tribunals. This same applies in every Province.”

~ Rev. Stephen Boissoin ~

~ REVISIT VIA BOISSOIN— “Big pat on the back for Ezra Levant!!! “The Boissoin case may be blossoming into the most prominent of the conflicts between Christians and gay activists, partly because Levant has been so successful in harping on the story and spreading it. Having shown little concern about the national anti-free-speech apparatus for years, the Canadian public is beginning to notice.” …. (nationalreview.com)

“The death of democracy is not likely to be an assassination from ambush. It will be a slow extinction from apathy, indifference, and undernourishment.”

Red Alert

All friends of this blog and of Ezra Levant please be aware that Ezra has received what appears to be a serious death-threat. Any IP-nerds or web-hunters will want to know that Ezra has offered a bounty of $1000 for whoever can give him a specific name.

For those of faith our there, please pray God’s protection and the holy angels defend him and his.

This is serious like a heart-attack. We are in a war.

… Morgue N Taler 11.0.

Apologies for the slow blogging: hanging with the Binklings, doing parental oppression of future generation. After all, you should be scarred for life by people who love you, not strangers or do-gooders.

And it’s Summer in the Northern Hemisphere.. don’t most of you people have better and more fun things you should be doing than being online?

Hater Hilarious Quote of the Day

“I think it’s really very dangerous when
someone stands up and says:
‘I have the way and I have the truth and I know how to
interpret holy scripture and you
are following what is the right way.’
It’s really very, very dangerous
and I think it’s demonic.”

–Episcopal Bishop of Washington, DC
John Chane at the Lambeth Conference
of Anglican prelates

Welcome to political correctness, ‘dead-church walking’ style. The problem here? Basic logic. Mr. Chane is saying that it is absolutely true that there is no absolute truth. Is that absolutely true? Then it’s not. This is self-contradictory weak-ass Logic 101. All circles are squares. All yellow things are green. All true things are untrue, and all untrue things are true. I always tell lies. I never tell the truth.

The left loves slagging, but not logic; forcing people to get in line with their ever-changing views, not convincing; abusing power, not using it as a privilige and responsibility. Like all soft-fascists, the hard-‘progressive’ Anglican left figures the solution to ‘dissent’ is more enforcement, crack-down, and marginalization of opponents.

“Love your enemy“? Pah! That’s for wimps! Ideology Über Alles! Utopia Is Just Ahead– Steam Roll The Objectors! Of course, a ruthless consistency is proof of demonic bias, as is criticizing emotional doublethink, or opposing bullying cleverly robed up with ecclesiastical titles and fancy talk. Muwahaha. Eeeevil.

ElfNotes

APOLITICAL ELFERY? ~ In the previous incarnation of Binks The WeBelf, it was all about religion: Anglicanism, and the long suicide of a once-great church. Since December last, jumping in where angels fear to tread, it’s been Free Mark Steyn 24/7/365. How bad is it? It’s ultimate news-monger red meat– Lambeth Conference time, and I’m not even reading about it. I’ve also been throwing Obama Links around the web, and the more I read about this corrupt, humourless, dishonest, flip-flopping, messianic candidate, the scarier it gets. He’s a Junior Senator, with an old, deep. and ever-unravelling record of sleaziness. As said before, I’m no expert, but this is one scary-bad man, with a full-on soft-fascism regime planned for the United States. Communist and totalitarianism is not dead: it’s just gone all smiley-faced. +

“It is no accident (as the Marxists used to say) that political correctness should flourish most in those countries in which libertinism has become an ideology; or that in countries in which the literary use of foul language is taken as a sign of liberation from stifling convention, certain words and thoughts are simply not allowed to be expressed. For what is political correctness except an attempt to purify the human heart by making unworthy thoughts literally inexpressible?”
