Christian U students protest faith-based VP Mike Pence

Liberal Arts Taylor University students take the word “liberal” more seriously than “Christian”

Taylor University is a nondenominational Christian liberal arts school that appears to take the word “liberal“ more seriously than its commitment to Christianity. There was a student and faculty walkout protesting Vice President Mike Pence just prior to him delivering the commencement address, beginning with these words:

“Throughout most of our American history it’s been pretty easy to call yourself a Christian, but things are different now,” Pence said. “Lately, it’s become acceptable, even fashionable, to malign traditional Christian beliefs. So as you prepare to leave this place and build your life on a Christ-centered, world-engaging foundation poured here at Taylor University, be prepared to stand up.”

Founded in 1846, Taylor University has veered far from its original roots. Its admission page urges applicants to learn more about how God could use you during and beyond your Taylor college experience, but there has been a disconnect, based in the promotion of the homosexual agenda as some students affixed rainbow signs and stickers atop their mortar boards, “We are Taylor too. ” They said the message represented “support for marginalized people hurt by the Trump administration’s policies,” clearly demonstrating their lack of knowledge.

The majority of the 494 graduates did not leave and greeted the comments by VP Pence, a former Indiana governor, with applause and a standing ovation. But the fact that there was a protest at a faith-based school is indicative of the radical leftist popular culture invading even what should be regarded as strongholds for normalcy.

The petition protesting Vice President Mike Pence’s commencement address can be viewed here.

While the university’s website addresses its commitment to Christ, some students suggested a more appropriate speaker would be South Bend Indiana mayor and long-shot Democrat presidential candidate Pete Buttigieg, married to another man.

Next weekend V. P. Pence will deliver the commencement address to U.S. Army cadets at West Point military academy.

Sports Illustrated goes berserk with burkini model

Symbol of oppression glorified

Breitbart News covers Zuhdi Jasser in this report, ‘Insanity’ for Hollywood Leftists to ‘Glorify’ Burkini.

Reading it guarantees you will be more discerning in sifting through increasing levels of leftist lunacy from those who purport to be purveyors of news. Dr. Jasser, a Phoenix physician, is the president of the American Islamic Forum for Democracy.

Watch as Dr. Jasser, appearing on the Tucker Carlson show, discusses the bizarre aberration of Kenyan-born, Somalian model and practicing Muslim, Halima Aden wearing a hijab and a “burkini” on the swimsuit edition cover of Sports Illustrated magazine.

…and Twitter went into full tweet mode.

This brief video shows Aden, while garbed in her modest attire, ostentatiously strutting her stuff as a contestant in the 2016 Miss Minnesota USA Pageant.

Irresponsible silence on measles link to illegal invasion & Update

Blame game denies the facts as tuberculosis and hepatitis are also spiraling out of control in border states

It’s been a quarter of a century since measles was eliminated as a public health concern in the United States. It is now back — with vengeance — and the virulent outbreak has nothing to do with the so-called “anti-vaxers.”

The disease initially resurfaced in the border states of Arizona and California, quickly spreading elsewhere. The Center for Disease Control (CDC) would have us believe it was spread by unvaccinated people in Amish communities in Ohio and Missouri or in a predominantly Orthodox Jewish community in Brooklyn, New York — odd choices since both religious groups are self-contained.

As of this week over 700 cases have been confirmed in 22 states.

The CDC states, “Measles is still common in many parts of the world including some countries in Europe, Asia, the Pacific, and Africa.”

Noticeably missing from the list are the Central American countries of Honduras, El Salvador and Guatemala, or our immediate “neighbor to the south,” Mexico. These are the countries that are flooding the United States with impoverished, uneducated invaders, bringing young children — frequently not their own, but used as facilitators — as they caravan by the hundreds of thousands, overwhelming border agents. The agents, with limited space to house them, are releasing them into border states, from which they fan out across the U.S.

This study published in the Journal of the American Medical Association: Pediatrics in 2014 found that 88% of measles cases in the country “were internationally imported or epidemiologically or virologically linked to importation.”

Only adherents to political correctness, who blandly refer to the invaders as “migrants,” would silence the truth and rush to blame two American religious groups that principally stay to themselves.

Ahead of her time, lawyer, author, activist and Eagle Forum founder Phyllis Schlafly (died: 2016) wrote, “Importing Third World Diseases,” in 2005.  Her ability to predict the future relating to the resurgence of previously eradicated diseases or introduction of new infectious scourges was uncanny. This is an important column that will add to your knowledge bank. Her impressive bio can be read here.

Conservative Review ran this report today detailing the thousands of illegals entering the United States with such highly contagious diseases as tuberculosis. The problem is real and it is urgent. We need the army at the southern border.

Border Patrol releasing thousands who were exposed to diseases like tuberculosis

The open-border supporting local newspaper headlines the rise in hepatitis cases. So far in 2019, there have been 212 cases in Arizona, which is higher than any yearly statewide total in more than a decade. State health officials expect that number to rise.

An outbreak of the viral liver disease began in November in the Tucson area and has spread to Maricopa County.

Never mentioning illegals in the coverage, the newspaper states,
“the cases are primarily among homeless and near-homeless individuals, as well as people who use illicit drugs.”

Pima County Health Department’s Deputy Director Paula Mandel is quoted as saying, “Hepatitis A is often known as “the poop disease” because it is transmitted through feces and can be easily spread when people do not have access to good hygiene and do not wash their hands after using the restroom. It’s a fecal-oral route,” Mandel said. “It takes such minute amounts.” Since Nov. 21, there have been 161 hepatitis A cases reported in Pima County. In comparison, Pima County had just five cases in all of 2017, It can also spread through contaminated food and water. People living on the streets and in homeless camps are particularly vulnerable.

San Diego, where illegals continue to breach the border, is also experiencing high rates of the highly contagious, potentially deadly infectious liver disease.

 

 

Newsweek surprisingly gets it right on leftist bias

Calls out anti-religious hate from “the left”

Left-leaning Newsweek magazine reports on Sunday’s ‘Fox & Friends,’ featuring a discussion on the escalation of horrific crimes at houses of worship, including Christian churches, mosques and synagogues. The panelists, Highland Park, Illinois, Rabbi Evan Moffic and Muslim scholar and physician Qanta Ahmed linked the vicious rhetoric of U.S. Rep. Ilhan Omar (D-MN) and her use of anti-Semitic stereotypes to a rise in anti-Jewish attacks in the U.S.

Moffic said, “I think we just simply have to be aware of these awful stereotypes about Jews. When Ilhan Omar said, “It’s all about the Benjamins, baby,” and she said Israel has “hypnotized the world,” she’s drawing on these stereotypes that have murdered millions of people in the Holocaust, which just happened 75 years ago…it’s exactly because of that rhetoric. He added, “Jews have never felt more vulnerable in the United States.”

Of particular interest is the panelists warned Americans that anti-religious persecution, particularly from “the left,” is on the rise.

This AP list of over a dozen murderous acts committed in houses of worship — which should be hallowed sanctuaries — dating from 2012.  It doesn’t include the senseless depravity that occurred at a San Diego-area synagogue on Saturday, the last day of Passover. One woman, standing to shield the rabbi, was murdered and the rabbi, along with an 8-year-old girl and her uncle, visiting from Israel, were wounded. 

The shooter John Earnest, 19, has also been linked to a recent arson blaze at a nearby mosque.

Saturday’s rampage could have been much worse. An off duty U.S. Border Patrol agent, providing security, is a member of the synagogue, and was attending the service when gunfire erupted. He was one of two men who rushed Earnest. They are being hailed as heroes for curtailing the attack.

Pope Francis fund$ caravans of illegals invading U.S.

It’s Sunday…a fitting day for news dealing with religion. What we are presenting, however, is a perversion of being of good faith, the interjection of a religious leader who lives in his own fortress, surrounded by massive, 50-foot tall, ten-feet thick towering walls and protected by his own army, interfering in U.S. border policies. If you guessed Pope Francis, who resides in Vatican City, protected by Swiss Army guards, you win the gold star.

The Vatican News service boasts that the pope —- an elitist Marxist who lives surrounded by opulence —- is spending some of the ample cash at his disposal on financing the caravans of illegal aliens from El Salvador, Guatemala and Honduras into the United States. The invaders are currently being dumped in Tucson, thanks to the Argentine Pope.

A hypocrite who judges what’s in the heart of others, Francis ridiculed President Trump using these words, “A person who thinks only about building walls, wherever they may be, and not building bridges, is not Christian.” Francis’ own wall remains solid and impenetrable.

He displayed blatant disrespect to America previously when he was invited to address a joint session of congress in 2015, but stopped off first to chat in Spanish with the Communist Castro brothers, Fidel (died 2016) and Raul. They are the Russian-aligned duo responsible for the substandard living conditions the repressed residents of Cuba have endured since 1959 in the once bustling tourist mecca, 90 miles off the southern Florida coast. 

Francis has repeatedly insulted President Trump and attempted to interject himself into our elections. Though America is the most generous of all nations, he frequently chastises us on the hot-button issues that drive the left: consumerism and global warming.

Worst of all, he is responsible for concealing the rampant sexual abuse in the church until he was forced to hold a 4-day “summit,” where he apologized for the systemic perversion, calling the same clergy he protected, “instruments of Satan.”

He initially issued a lame apology, telling victims the Vatican “felt shame and sorrow” and “the pope is on your side.”

This 2018 news report includes information regarding the Grand Jury report of ’horrific” ongoing child sexual abuse in the Pennsylvania diocese alone. The Pennsylvania Attorney General said the report showed a “systematic cover up by senior church officials in Pennsylvania and at the Vatican.”

It’s time for Francis to get the same treatment given to Pope Benedict XVI — a righteous man who did not deserve to be banished, never to be seen or heard of again. His reported “resignation” was the first of its kind in nearly 600 years.

Democrats’ bizarre bond with death

Earlier this month, Democrat New Jersey Gov. Phil Murphy bragged about signing legislation legalizing doctor assisted suicide, becoming the eighth state to casually devalue life. In signing the bill, Murphy, a self-described “lifelong, practicing Catholic,” stated that while he was aware the Church opposed assisted suicide he was signing the bill into law regardless.

The bill was co-sponsored by Assemblyman John Burzichelli and Senator Nick Scutari, both….you guessed it…Democrats.

New Jersey joins other assisted suicide-condoning states with Democrat governors including California, Colorado, Hawaii, Montana, Oregon, and Washington.  Vermont is the stand alone with a Republican chief executive to sign assisted suicide legislation.  

 It’s a slippery slope. Newly-born life has been shockingly devalued by Virginia Gov. Ralph Northam, another Democrat, who condones infanticide via post-birth abortion saying it‘s a decision to be made by a mother and her provider.  Northam, a medical doctor, is even more reprehensible, since his pre-political career has been as a pediatric neurologist. Although he condones death for innocent babies, he opposes the death penalty for the most horrific criminals, who have committed capital offenses.

Watch this astonishing video of Northam’s interview on CNS News.

Appearing on WTOP’s “Ask The Governor,” program Northam defended the 40-week abortion bill saying, “If a mother is in labor, I can tell you exactly what would happen. The infant would be delivered. The infant would be kept comfortable. The infant would be resuscitated if that’s what the mother and the family desired, and then a discussion would ensue between the physicians and the mother.”

New York’s leftist Gov. Andrew Cuomo celebrated signing into law abortion up until birth. Watch this Fox and Friends video featuring New York Archbishop, Cardinal Timothy Dolan discussing how Democrats changed their previous abortion rhetoric from “safe, legal and rare” to what has now morphed into “dangerous, enforced and frequent.”

 Cuomo has gone to the mat banning single use of plastic bags, which he prioritizes over human life.

Foolish do-gooders aid and abet illegal invasion

Righteous absurdity of the left

The Easter Sunday edition of the local newspaper devoted front page coverage, including two jump pages, to a 74-year-old local grandmother who opens her small condo to hordes of illegal aliens. The article is headlined, “We are called to welcome strangers…Arizonan opens home, heart to asylum seekers.” A more fitting title would be, “Misguided do-gooder* aids and abets illegal invasion.”

Her home is described as “spotless” although the photos belie that depiction. Truth on any level simply has no relevancy when the topic is illegal aliens. Imagine a neighbor harboring criminals steps away from your home. Yet she and others working in concert with their churches, are extolled for feeding, clothing and temporarily housing Central American illegals now breaching our border by the 100‘s of thousands as they caravan through facilitating Mexico. The illegals, referred to as “guests,” are coddled until they are able to fan out cross the United States and access taxpayer-funded benefits. Any children they have once here are automatically American citizens based on flawed interpretations of the Fourteen Amendment, able to exploit absurd chain migration policies to bring in other relatives.

A pastor acknowledges not all of his congregants are happy with his church’s involvement, with some concerned that “publicity could lead to anti-immigrant protests from so-called patriot groups, which have occurred at other churches.”

Understand that if you believe in legal immigration and respect for the law, you are on the wrong side of this issue and your patriotism is open to question.

These brief insights aim to give our readers a sample of what the increasingly radical left-wing newspaper pushes as it attempts to make aiding criminality an act of faith-based decency. The failing Arizona Republic expends its last gasps of breath struggling to normalize the abnormal from deviancy to criminality, but is fooling no one but itself — evidenced by the fact that subscriptions for the anorexic, poor excuse for a newspaper continue to plummet. Parent company Gannett Co. Inc. continues to fail and has been the subject of hostile takeover bids as profit and revenue fall short of estimates.

For a cogent view on the impending prospects of such irrational tactics, read “Amnesty: Bad Policy, Even Worse Politics,” by Bradley Betters — posted on American Thinker.
