“Muslim Rape Crisis” In Sweden Debunked

Posted on by

UPDATE:

http://www.bbc.com/news/magazine-19592372

ORIGINAL POST

I found this interesting post that debunks the “Muslim rape crisis in Sweden” narrative and points out how high rape and crime rates are in almost entirely white European countries like Estonia and Latvia that no one includes in discussion about Islam and rape in Europe [minor edits added for readability and grammar]:

New UPDATE (06/06/2013):Sweden’s latest murder statistics have come out for the year of 2012, and this is really bad news for atheists/racists.Remember the murder statistic is a very objective crime statistic, since it doesn’t rely much upon the rate of reporting or a a country’s laws, and is difficult to falsely report. So, the homicide rate and count is very objective when compared to many other crime statistics.Since atheists as a whole are universally stupid people, they would never ever read the official crime statistics published or encourage anyone to do so, but instead just use speculation, rumors, or other such nonsense as sources.

Here are the official crime statistics: http://bra.se/bra/brott–statistik/mord-och-drap.htmlThe murder count in Sweden in 2012 was 68, which comes to a murder rate of 0.71 per 100,000 for 2012, which is lower than all 50 US states, almost every country on the entire planet, and one of the very lowest murder rates in Swedish history!

So Sweden has now achieved an unthinkable astronomically low murder rate of 0.71!

What a disappointment for the Nazis/atheists that Sweden’s murder rate in 2012 (with more Muslim immigration) is even lower than it was in 2011, and is one of the very very lowest murder rates in all of Swedish history.

It’s really almost unthinkable that any country could have a murder rate this low.

To put things into perspective, let’s look at the number of murders in the US states with population sizes closest to Sweden’s 9.6 million population (Georgia, Michigan, North Carolina),  since the murder rate is in proportion to the population size:
– Georgia had more than 550 murders in 2011
– Michigan had more than 600 murders in 2011
– North Carolina had more than 500 murders in 2011

Source: http://www.fbi.gov/about-us/cjis/ucr/crime-in-the-u.s/2011/crime-in-the-u.s.-2011/tables/table-4

So, this means that the US state with the lowest murder count and population size closest to Sweden (North Carolina) had nearly 100 more murders in 1 year than Sweden did in 5 years.

Sweden’s murder count in 5 years (2008-2012) would be 414, whereas North Carolina’s murder count is above 500 in just 1 year.

The murder count in Sweden in 2012 was 68. You’d have to go all the way back to maybe the 1960s or 1970s to find Sweden murder rates this low.

If crime is up and there’s much more violence, wouldn’t the murder count and murder rate go up dramatically and be higher than at least a few US states?

So where’s all the ‘crime’ that the fools (atheists) are referring to?

Not only is the murder rate lower, the murder count is lower than ever as well.

Apparently there’s more ‘crime’ and violence in Sweden, but Sweden is safer than all 50 US states.  The US state with the lowest murder rate in 2011 had a murder rate of 1.2 per 100,000.

Well I guess I can’t blame atheists for being misled, they are gullible people who never read official crime statistics published, just garbage on blog sites.

I’m still waiting for the fools (atheists) to justify their lies about there being so much more crime in Sweden now, with more Muslim immigration, I guess they can’t. All they have are lies from their low-life atheist mouths.

What will the fools (atheists) come up with next since the official crime statistics published debunks their lies?

BTW: I’m not a Muslim and never have been at any time in my life (and never will be), I’m not from the Middle-East, Asia, Africa, or Europe. Initially I was on the same anti-Islam bandwagon that many are on right now (and said lots of anti-Islamic things) up until around 2011 when I realized it was just a waste of time and energy.

What’s the point in focusing lots of time and energy on ending just Muslim-related crime (non-violent rapes with no injuries), helping rebuild Muslim countries, trying to make life better for Muslims alone, and helping out Muslim countries alone?

I don’t get it.

Since 9/11 there were more than 120,000 non-Muslim killings in the US (from 2002-2012), so what would happen if we focused our time and energy on helping out non-Muslims instead?

The very worst thing that can happen to the Nazi White Nationalist movement in Sweden is a 0% Muslim population and lots of non-white non-Muslim immigrants. This would ruin everything for them wouldn’t it?

They should deport/ban Muslim immigrants and prevent all that ‘crime’ in Sweden, then bring in lots of non-white non-Muslim immigrants. If this time, with non-Muslim immigrants there really is more actual crime, what will Nazi Swedes do?

There’s “more crime”, but the murder rate in 2012 (latest data) is one of the lowest in Sweden history, lower than all 50 US States (meaning that there’s not even 1 US state that has a lower murder rate), and lower than almost every single country in all of the entire world.

All that the liars/atheists can do is discourage people from reading the official crime statistics published and avoid mentioning the murder rate at all costs.

UPDATE: After much discussion I’ve determined the actual cause of the reported rape rate in Sweden being high.

Here’s my hypothesis as to why Sweden’s reported rape rate is so high:
– Sweden’s new modified rape laws in 2005 made it so that the way rapes are counted is intentionally inflated
– The rate of reporting rapes in Sweden is very high
– Many reported rapes in Sweden are false reports caused by the extreme racism there

The evidence to support this hypothesis:
– An excerpt from this BBC News article demonstrates how laughable Sweden’s new rape laws are:

“In Sweden there has been this ambition explicitly to record every case of sexual violence separately, to make it visible in the statistics,” she says.

“So, for instance, when a woman comes to the police and she says my husband or my fiance raped me almost every day during the last year, the police have to record each of these events, which might be more than 300 events. In many other countries it would just be one record – one victim, one type of crime, one record.” – http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/magazine-19592372

So this means that 1 report from 1 woman in Sweden could count as 300 or more “rapes” in their rape statistics, depending on how many times the victim claims they were “raped”.

In 2009 according to the Sweden Democrats there were only 253 rape cases (the number of rape cases would tell us the number of rapes if Sweden would’ve had regular rape counting laws), meaning that Sweden’s reported rape rate would only be around 2.7 per 100,000 if they had normal rape counting laws (which is more than 94% lower than the current rate that appears in their rape statistics).

– All of the objective crime statistics in Sweden that are difficult to falsely report like the murder rate and car thefts have decreased or remained constant

– Sweden’s murder rate in 2011 with more Muslim immigration has decreased to 0.86. It’s the lowest murder rate in decades for Sweden and one of the lowest in all of Sweden history, so Sweden’s murder rate is lower than all 50 US states in 2011 and almost every country in the entire world.

The murder rate in Sweden was much higher in the 1990s when there was much less Muslim immigration. From the murder rate we know that the type of “rapes” and “crime” in Sweden must not be lethal (Source: http://www.bra.se/bra/brott–statistik/mord-och-drap.html)

–  The reported number of homicides for Sweden in 2009 was 232, but the actual number was 92! So this means the actual homicide rate was more than 60% lower than the reported homicide rate.

Over 100 of the reported homicides in Sweden in 2009 weren’t even about homicides. (Source: http://epp.eurostat.ec.europa.eu/cache/ITY_OFFPUB/KS-SF-12-006/EN/KS-SF-12-006-EN.PDF)

If people are willing to falsely report murders obviously they would be willing to falsely report a rape.

For a car theft how are you going to falsely report it? Are you going to make a up a non-existent license plate or hide your car? It’s difficult to falsely report a car theft.

For a homicide how are you going to falsely report it? Claim someone got killed even if they’re alive? It’s difficult to falsely report a homicide. Although you can falsely convict someone of murder.

But for a rape, it’s easy; even if there’s no DNA evidence or injuries in the case you can still win. Anyone can just make up a story about how they were raped; it’s arguably the very very easiest crime to falsely report.

– The main sign of a false rape report is no injuries and no DNA evidence.

No injuries tells us that very little to no force was used and no DNA evidence tells us that there was no actual intercourse. So in cases like these you would just have to rely upon whom you believe, the accused or the accuser.

If there was more violence in Sweden we would expect the murder rate to increase, not decrease, so the murder rate is a real big blow to the Nazi movement in Sweden.

– Falsely reporting a rape is extremely easy, falsely reporting a homicide is extremely difficult, and the reported rape rate is the only crime statistic that’s radically changed in Sweden

– We know from history that in extremely racist societies falsely reporting rapes was common. Here’s an example of one in Sweden:

“The [Swedish] woman later recanted her story about the alleged rape when she learned that a surveillance camera mounted in the taxi had recorded the couple leaving the vehicle without paying” – http://www.thelocal.se/14626/20080929/

– The murder rate isn’t calculated by the number of reports like how the reported rape rate is, it’s calculated by objective deaths, so the murder rate is a very objective statistic that’s difficult to distort and skew

– There were over 5,940 reported rapes in Sweden in 2009, but the Swedish Democrats talked about 114 out of 253 cases, 253 cases is more than 95% lower than the total number of reported rapes in Sweden, I’m guessing the number of cases is much lower because the “reported number” counts each alleged event (Source: http://www.thelocal.se/28580/20100825/#.UMR9MFVkyAg)

– According to Swedish journalist Ingrid Carlqvist “Most [Sweden] rape complaints are false. I base my conclusions on the hundreds of preliminary investigations and verdicts I’ve reviewed in my 30 years as a journalist” (Source: http://rixstep.com/2/1/20110701,00.shtml)

– Since the reported rape rate relies upon a country’s rape laws, the rate of reporting rapes, and since it’s extremely easy to falsely report a rape the reported rape rate is the very least objective of all crime statistics and gives us no objective data as to what’s occurring

Conclusion:
– The murder rate is really embarrassing, so the Nazi Swedes avoid mentioning it at all costs
– Not being able to falsely report a murder like a rape must really pain the Nazi movement in Sweden

– There’s no way Swedish racists are going to encourage people to look at the official statistics and reports published, they’re only going to encourage people to look at  propaganda Nazi articles and YouTube videos
– The basic argument of the Nazi Swedes and anyone who supports them is that “crime is up in Sweden except in every objective crime statistic that’s difficult to falsely report and distort”
– All that’s changed in Sweden is Sweden’s rape laws and the rate of reporting rape, this is why the murder rate has remained constant (and is actually lower now) in Sweden

If Swedes really believe that Muslim immigration is their problem (with a murder rate lower than all US states) then here’s what I suggest they do:
– Deport/ban all Muslim immigrants
– After all the Muslims are gone, bring in lots of non-white non-Muslim immigrants
– If there’s more actual crime in Sweden (you know in objective crime statistics) with  white non-Muslim immigrants, without a target as easy as the Muslims, what will Nazi Swedes do?

I would encourage Sweden to deport all existing Muslim immigrants and ban all Muslim immigration.  I would suggest that any Muslim immigrant living in Sweden voluntarily leave Sweden. I would also suggest that white non-Muslims go live in Sweden.

It would be a great experiment to see what would happen in Sweden with a 0% Muslim population and lots of non-white non-Muslim immigrants. My guess is that then it wouldn’t matter if the murder rate was 10 times or 20 times higher in Sweden. It wouldn’t be international news, because non-Muslim immigrants are much harder targets.

Some other things to note:
– The worst rapist in Sweden was a White Swede, Thomas Quick, who allegedly raped and murdered 30 men
– New Zealand doesn’t have Sweden’s unique rape laws, so NZ’s reported rape rate is probably more real than Sweden’s, yet in NZ they have rape-murderers, like Jason Frandi, a White New Zealander who raped and murdered a tourist

– The European countries with the highest murder rates, Latvia, Lithuania, and Estonia have the least non-white immigration, the lowest percentage of Muslims in Europe, and the purest European stock. I’ve asked the people who complain about the supposed “Problem of Islam” in Europe as to why they don’t make websites or YouTube videos to help out Lithuanians, Latvians, and Estonians, but none of them have ever answered the question.

– Multiple studies and experiments have shown that White males are reported less often for all crime in general.

– Since White males are reported less often for rape, if White males were reported as often as others at least 80% of the reported rapists in Sweden should be White males, this would be more consistent with the murder rate in Sweden
– If you report a White male for rape and there’s no injuries, you don’t have video camera evidence, 20 witnesses, or anything like that, and it’s not a child rape or drug rape, then the jury will most likely just say “it’s no big deal, charges dropped”, you’ll just have to wait for the White male to go on to kill or seriously injure someone to get a conviction

What a shame it is for the Nazi movement in Sweden that you can’t falsely report a murder, as you can a rape.”

Levels Of Brain-washing

Posted on by

First Level Brain-washing: General Public:

Reaction:

“The Paris attacks were committed unprovoked by Islamicists (ISIS) who hate us (France/America/substitute country name) for our freedoms.”

RESULT: Anger directed against Islamic countries, Muslims, all brown people.

Helps NWO-instigated ongoing psyop called “war on terror.”

Second Level Brain-washing: Informed Public/Activists:

Reaction:

“The Paris attacks were blow-back by radicalized young men who join ISIS, who hate us  (France, America/substitute country name) for attacking them before.”

RESULT: Anger directed against French, American and allied Muslim governments.

Helps NWO-instigated ongoing psyop to dismantle all governments.

Deprogrammed public & activists:

Reaction:

“The Paris attacks were committed by Western intelligence operatives, working with their golem, ISIS and with hired operatives of Western-allied Muslim outfits to instigate public support for more funding for the “war on terror.”

RESULT: Anger directed against Western intelligence outfits and the Western elites who run them.

Obstructs NWO’s continuing psyop on the world, called the “war on terror,” which might better be called the “war OF terror.”

Hint:

Open defecation is a social problem in India and Indonesia, not in Syria. Middle-class Syrian Muslims are not likely to be involved in anything like that.

Conclusion: the “migrants” are operatives.

Note that the CIA has, for several years, been using feces and menstrual blood in its intelligence operations abroad: for example, these “Egyptian feminist” activists, who front for Western intelligence.

[I deleted the link because of the images. You can find them by googling for Egyptian feminists sh** and bleed, or looking up the archives of Reason magazine.]

The secondary benefit Western intelligence agencies derives from the usage of feces and menstrual blood is that the public begins to be habituated to such images in the news, which helps promote genres of porn involving feces and menstruation.

The intelligence agencies are ultimately run by financiers/elites that depend on the global porn trade, so the use of these images can be seen as government-funded advertising to increase big porn’s market-share.

The images also make homosexuality more acceptable, for reasons I needn’t flog.

A further benefit to the agencies is that by running public campaigns against open defecation in Asia, on the one hand, while simultaneously running intelligence operations involving open defecation, on the other, the Western public is conditioned to associate militant brown (“like feces”) Isis operatives with, first, Islam and Muslims in general, and, secondly, with all brown-skinned people, especially South Asians and Indians.This conflation helps transform rational debate over immigration into something visceral and racial that solidifies resentment and anger toward all foreigners and thus supports imperial aggressions.

Lack of hygiene ( a social and economic problem) becomes conflated with “brown people” (color and race) and these in turn become conflated with attacks against the West leading to the notion of an anti-white foreign invasion generated by the third-world.

Syria, of course, is not a “third-world” country.

The propaganda classic, “Camp of the Saints,” made exactly the same move, conflating impoverished people in Calcutta with a migrant invasion of Europe, and in the process exacerbating white working-class anxieties.

The author, Jean Raspail, is a royalist, but, like all too many who fawn on blood-elites, he himself is  working-class.

The Calcuttan slum-dwellers who, in the book, land up in Paris, in the real world, cannot even afford to leave their slum, let alone, Bengal or India.

In the book, the slum-dwellers from Calcutta are uniformly depicted in the most loathsome terms, as perpetually copulating, disease-ridden sub-human monstrosities, swamping the shores of the “beloved city” of France.

The “beloved city” is a phrase from Revelations that actually refers to Jerusalem, so that in Raspail’s white-nationalist supremacist vision, the Christian end-times becomes fused with British Israelism and white Europeans become the “true Israel,” surrounded in the last times by the demonic forces of Gog and Magog, now equated with the third-world.

This is simply sleight-of-hand, intended to distract from the groups actually orchestrating the “clash of civilizations.”

The Ashkenazy or Sephardic Roots Of Hitler

Posted on by

From the Daily Telegraph:

Saliva samples taken from 39 relatives of the Nazi leader show he may have had biological links to the “subhuman” races that he tried to exterminate during the Holocaust.

Jean-Paul Mulders, a Belgian journalist, and Marc Vermeeren, a historian, tracked down the Fuhrer’s relatives, including an Austrian farmer who was his cousin, earlier this year.

A chromosome called Haplogroup E1b1b1 which showed up in their samples is rare in Western Europe and is most commonly found in the Berbers of Morocco, Algeria and Tunisia, as well as among Ashkenazi and Sephardic Jews.

“One can from this postulate that Hitler was related to people whom he despised,” Mr Mulders wrote in the Belgian magazine, Knack.

Haplogroup E1b1b1, which accounts for approximately 18 to 20 per cent of Ashkenazi and 8.6 per cent to 30 per cent of Sephardic Y-chromosomes, appears to be one of the major founding lineages of the Jewish population.

 

Knack, which published the findings, says the DNA was tested under stringent laboratory conditions.

“This is a surprising result,” said Ronny Decorte, a genetic specialist at the Catholic University of Leuven.

“The affair is fascinating if one compares it with the conception of the world of the Nazis, in which race and blood was central.

“Hitler’s concern over his descent was not unjustified. He was apparently not “pure” or ‘Ayran’.”

It is not the first time that historians have suggested Hitler had Jewish ancestry.

His father, Alois, is thought to have been the illegitimate offspring of a maid called Maria Schickelgruber and a 19-year-old Jewish man called Frankenberger.”

Million Mask March On London Turns Violent

Posted on by

From Euro News, further evidence of orchestrated chaos, as the million mask march in London descends into violent chaos.

Notice the masks from the New World Order themed movie, “V for Vendetta,” typical of the intelligence-related group Anonymous.

The Million Mask March is said to be a rebranding of the failed Occupy movement, a Soros-infiltrated effort at stirring up the masses around the globe that was a bit of a damp squib. Anonymous has been orchestrating the MMM since 2013 and there have been complaints that it is infiltrated by CIA. Not sure if the complaints are genuine or just more theater by operatives.

Notice the timing – on Guy Fawkes Day (November 5).

I’ll add to this post, once I’ve researched the topic a bit more.

Religions Being Played Off Against Each Other

Posted on by

From Washington’s Blog (which sometimes runs disinformation), this excellent piece:

Fundamentalist Muslims, Christians and Jews all think they are in a “holy war” against the other guy.

They assume that Christianity, Judaism and Islam are mortal enemies.   As such, they assume that Saudi Arabia (the seat of most fundamentalist school of Islam) fights for Islam, Israel for Judaism and the U.S. (which has the most Christians of any country in the world) for Christianity … or religious tolerance.

They’re being played.

Specifically, while it’s true that Saudi Arabia has long backed Islamic terrorists … so has Israel (and see this and this).

Radical Islamic Syrian “rebels” have allegedly offered to “trade” the Golan Heights to Israel … in exchange for military aid.

The Saudis – along with the Israelis – say that Arabs are not ready for democracy.

Israel has also repeatedly been caught impersonating Muslim extremists. For example, Israel admits that an Israeli terrorist cell operating in Egypt planted bombs in several buildings, including U.S. diplomatic facilities, then left behind “evidence” implicating the Arabs as the culprits (one of the bombs detonated prematurely, allowing the Egyptians to identify the bombers, and several of the Israelis later confessed) (and see this and this).

NBC News reports that Israel backed a Muslim fundamentalist terror group against Iran.

Former CBS News producer Barry Lando claims that Saudi Arabia helps directly fund Israeli’s Mossad in its campaign to assassinate Iranian scientists.  And see this.

The Sunday Times reported that Saudi Arabia has tested the ability to stand down its air defenses to allow an Israeli strike on Iran to pass through its airspace. After the Arab Spring, Israel views the Saudi government as “guarantor of stability”, according to the New York Times. In 2011, Israel approved a German sale of 200 Leopard tanks to Saudi Arabia. The approval came from Uzi Arad, the national security advisor to Benjamin Netanyahu.

And the U.S. has long backed Saudi Arabia … and the Madrassa schools within Saudi Arabia which teach radical, violent Wahabi beliefs.

The Washington Post reported in 2002:

The United States spent millions of dollars to supply Afghan schoolchildren with textbooks filled with violent images and militant Islamic teachings ….

The primers, which were filled with talk of jihad and featured drawings of guns, bullets, soldiers and mines, have served since then as the Afghan school system’s core curriculum. Even the Taliban used the American-produced books ….

The Council on Foreign Relations notes:

The 9/11 Commission report (PDF) released in 2004 said some of Pakistan’s religious schools or madrassas served as “incubators for violent extremism.” Since then, there has been much debate over madrassas and their connection to militancy.

***

New madrassas sprouted, funded and supported by Saudi Arabia and U.S. Central Intelligence Agency, where students were encouraged to join the Afghan resistance.

And see this.

The U.S. also directly arms, funds and otherwise supports the most violent fundamentalist Muslim terrorists – including Al Qaeda – against the more moderate Muslims and secular Arabs. Indeed, the U.S. backs Islamic terrorists who are persecuting Christians and Jews.

Yet the U.S. not only strongly supports Israel, but many of the most fundamentalist American Christians support the most fundamentalist, hard-line, radical Israeli Jews. And the Israeli government supports the Christian fundamentalists.

These 3 countries – centers of 3 different religions – are also all fighting on the same side in various wars. For example, the U.S., Saudi Arabia and Israel are all fighting against the Syrian government, and backing Al Qaeda and the Muslim Brotherhood. (Indeed, the New York Times reported that virtually all of the rebel fighters are Al Qaeda terrorists.)

In reality, corrupt government officials – many of whom are atheists – are using the most extreme forms of religion to divide and conquer us … while they are working together with “enemies” from the “opposing” team.”

Transgender Activism: Porn Behind The Mask

Posted on by

I guess when you live in an affluent country, with dirt-cheap food, housing bargains galore, paid work if you are willing to do it, one of the cushiest social safety-nets around, well-stocked free libraries on every corner, and technological marvels at your disposal that a Roman emperor would envy, you tend to obsess over imaginary grievances.

Today’s imaginary grievance is that if you don’t feel quite in sync with your biological sex – a psychiatric condition called gender dysphoria that has some neuro-chemical basis – you shouldn’t just work on changing your mental disposition. Ah no, that would be too bourgeois and torturous.

Instead, you should chop off the offending body part, ala Origen, pump yourself up with hormones, and then force society to accept you at your face – er- genital value.

Yes. It’s bottoms up in the USSA.

That’s the substance of a recent ruling from America’s diseased judiciary on transgender rights.

The ruling forces an Illinois school district to give full access to the girls’ locker-room in a high school, in addition to the girls’ bathroom stalls, to a pre-op biological boy with his boy-parts and baritone fully intact, who rather fancies himself in girls’ dresses.

The biological girls at the receiving end of this  gross outrage staged a walk-out. The school offered to let the “victim” use a private bathroom.

But no, Mr. Guess-Who must undress before the girls and outrage their modesty, or his human dignity will be at stake.

In another age, the wanna-be Barbie would have earned a swift kick in the pants and exile to boot-camp or wilderness-training to learn some testicular fortitude.

This being the USSA, the American Civil Liberties Union whipped out the accordion and violins, Barbie was assuaged to the tune of 75 grand, and some shriveled men-in-black ruled from somewhere near Mount Olympus that undressed teen-aged girls in Illinois must watch a young man display his genitalia to them and allow him to watch them in turn or …..fascism!

This can only be construed as a victory for voyeurs and pedophiles, for who else would celebrate violating the sexual privacy of thirteen and fourteen-year old girls?

Who?

Apparently, large numbers of brain-washed liberals, for whom the issue has already been framed as one of “rights” and “discrimination,” rather than as it really is – a whole-sale, frontal assault on the young and the innocent by the pornocracy.

Fangs bared and bloodied, the porn culture howls in frustration at the one last obstacle – public opinion- that separates it from the freshest “meat” on the sex-market.

 

 

 

Why Christians Must Defend Their Traditions

Posted on by

The argument is made that Christians best imitate Jesus by not taking offense at insults and attacks on their traditions and icons.

There are many reasons why this is false.

There is the obvious one that Jesus himself did not tolerate the desecration of the Temple.

He actively threw the money-changers out of its precincts, over-turned their tables, chased away their animals, and put them out of business.

Then, there is the invective Jesus used  – “serpents,” “devils,” “liars,” “hypocrites.”

Is this Jesus meek and mild?

No.

There never was a Jesus meek and mild.

That is a concoction of well-bred, middle-class Sunday School misses.

They cannot be blamed for knowing nothing about real men, but we can.

Jesus slept out in the open, with only stones for his pillow.

He went for days without food or sleep.

He preached and healed in sun and rain on the hills and on the lake-shore, in front of sweaty, restless crowds of thousands of peasants.

He worked and lived with illiterate fishermen and carpenters, who drank and swore.

He routinely castigated the lawyers and scribes and the powerful members of the Sanhedrin.

Indeed, the entire Gospel story is the story of the relentless persecution of Jesus by the religious “mafia” that had an iron grip on the spiritual life of the Judeans.

That was the iron grip that Jesus broke on the cross.

So, using Jesus as an excuse for our cowardice doesn’t work.

But there are other reasons.

As the symbols of a tradition are denigrated with impunity, they lose their power over the minds of the young.

Young people don’t yet have the experience or discernment to filter out the abuse and distortion.

The young go by what they are told, not so much in words as in deeds, by their elders and their peers.

When the adults around do not respond to the tidal wave of filth and abuse directed at the Christian tradition, the young do not take Christianity seriously.

They see it only as the butt of jokes. The punch-line of comedy routines.

Faith flourishes with physical persecution. The shedding of blood creates martyrs.

But faith is hard-pressed to survive Saturday Night Live and a moral martyrdom of unending, undefended humiliation.

Jesus Christ will survive it. So will his saints.

But the rabble who perpetrate this barbarism and the cowards who countenance it will not survive with their  humanity intact.

Pope’s Scientific Adviser Is Pantheist Malthusian

Posted on by

A fascinating article on the scientist who advises the Vatican, Hans Schellnhuber, who believes in the Gaia hypothesis (the earth as a living creature), is a climate and population alarmist, and suggests that the population of the world should be 1 billion.

Schellnhuber, a supposed atheist, talks in quite religious terms – using the Hindu deity Shiva to represent physical events that have a negative impact on the earth:

Although effects such as the glaciations may still be interpreted as over-reactions to small disturbances — a kind of cathartic geophysiological fever — the main events, resulting in accelerated maturation by shock treatment, indicate that Gaia faces a powerful antagonist. Rampino has proposed personifying this opposition as Shiva, the Hindu god of destruction.”

Of course, he does not mention that Shiva’s destruction is first of all divine  spiritual.

He also does not mention that the West has had the technology to induce massive changes in the environment for some time, and these technologies (mostly derived from weapons research) are far more culpable than anything done by ordinary people carrying on the daily business of living.

Not-so-coincidentally, Schellnhuber, a visiting professor at Oxford, advises former Stasi spy, Angela Merkel.

Worst of all, Schellnhuber is a proponent of world government to tackle climate change.

From the Catholic blog, Rorate Caeli:

Last but not the least he is an advocate of a very real form of “World Government”, also in the name of defeating the climate crisis. His ideas are laid out in “Expanding the Democracy Universe“, where among other things he discusses his dream of an Earth Constitution, a Global Council elected by the people of the whole world, and a Planetary Court with jurisdiction over the whole world and with the power to penalize violations of the “Earth Constitution”.
