The 'Other' Church

The Anglican Church is still ripping itself apart. After 500 years they have finally officially agreed that women can be ordained as priests (although it won't actually happen any earlier than 2018). But the Gay issue is tearing at the very fabric of the church's constitution.

With the Bible as both sword and shield both sides fight it out in a very un-english way in public brawls and even in their own churches. This week the openly Gay bishop, the Right Reverend Gene Robinson was heckled in church. Of course the congregation responded by singing a hymn whilst he was removed.

Conservatives have never been able to use the Bible to deny the existence of women, just their place in the leadership of the church.

However, the Bible has been very useful over the last few centuries as 'evidence' against the very existence of homosexuality.

In the end, I don't care what the church decides on the subject of Gay Bishops yes or no. I believe that religion as such is anti-humanitarian. However I do care about why they are even discussing the subject.

Religion as excuse for discrimination.

For more examples closer to home see: the Netherlands, Christen Unie, CDA, christian council workers refusal to conduct gay marriages, Amsterdam council cleaning up the Red Light District, Yvette Lont, Amsterdam Council member claiming that homosexuals not be fit for office ....

God is Geil

Where this obsession with religion has come from that has engulfed me the last few weeks I have no idea

The Last Days? The Reckoning? The Rapture?

I doubt it very strongly.

What I do see is an enormous threat from the US through African, mainly Kenyan, Churches to restore power to the Protestant Church in the world.

The Pope has been working his side of the pond for years, using the last Heavenly Father as a front for the RC's money making tactics.

The Evangelicals have been waiting, plotting, preparing for this for years.

Multi-Nationals, or more correctly Multi-Globals are deeply threatened by consumer behaviour at the moment and have left themselves wide open to attack and abuse.

And, yes, I sound paranoid.

But when I see that in what was the most liberal country in the world, the Netherlands, that politicians dare to speak out against dirty homosexuals and their horrible sin, then that must be writing on the wall.

There´s a religious backlash coming and we must be aware of it at least.

And who is ´we´?

I´m afraid that the target group is much broader than gays alone. Gay males are always one of the guaranteed ´red buttons´ in elections and such ..... but there are more ....´abortion´, ´marriage´, ´immigration´, ´sex offenders´, ´sex education´, ´healthcare´ etc .....

For example ....Just how long will it take for the Government to decide who is responsible for their own diseases and present the treatment bill to the patient?
