Conservative Christian Site Blacklisted by Web Host

Tech Tyranny: Conservative Christian Site Blacklisted by Web Host

Written by  Selwyn Duke

Is being Christian and robustly conservative now against tech companies’ terms of service? It increasingly seems so. A good example is the report that the pro-life, pro-family LifeSiteNews.com was recently blacklisted by its hosting company and given only 12 hours to find a new one — or risk being offline.

LifeSite is a Christian entity that covers a range of issues, with special focus on life, family, and the sexual devolution. Frequent readers also may recognize it as a site from which I sometimes quote. As for its problems, LifeSite reported October 27:

This is extremely urgent. I need to inform you that LifeSite just received an email at 8:30 p.m. EST from our web-hosting company alerting us that they will be taking our website down within 12 hours, if not sooner.

They wrote: “we are implementing our ‘SUSPENSION OF SERVICES’ clause...and giving you 12 hours notice to move your web site operations off of our servers..."

We received absolutely no forewarning whatsoever about this decision.

LifeSite doesn’t mention the hosting company’s name, but according to the former’s DNS recordand an LGBT-activist blog (which I won’t publicize by linking to), it’s San Francisco-based Cloudflare.

While LifeSite covers many issues, it was, unsurprisingly, focus on homosexuality that got it in trouble. In particular, the news organ explains, “The [hosting] company told LifeSite it is acting in response to a months-long campaign of complaints against us by Adam Flanders. Flanders is a convicted sex abuser and homosexual activist who is angered over our reports exposing him and his past.”

Medical insanity: lesbian couple creates history by delivering baby they both carried

LIFESITE NEWS

October 29, 2018 (LifeSiteNews) – It is truly mind-boggling to consider the extent to which the science and technology sectors have dedicated themselves to making LGBT fantasies a reality, from transgender people demanding free wombs to reproductive technologies ensuring that same-sex couples can create designer babies biologically connected to both of them. 

There are other experiments underway, too—millions of dollars are being spent to find out if a baby that has two male parents or two female parents can be created to accommodate the LGBT activists demanding children as a right—a commodity that they should be permitted to purchase.

But apparently, doctors are willing to take all of this a step further, as same-sex couple Ashleigh and Bliss Coulter of Mountain Springs, North Texas, is “believed to have made medical history as the first couple to deliver a baby they both carried,” according to ABC News. This was accomplished by a procedure called “Effortless Reciprocal In Vitro Fertilization” or Effortless Reciprocal IVF. Ashleigh and Bliss stumbled upon the option when they were hunting for a way to have a child that was biologically connected to both of them, rather than pursuing the option usually utilized by lesbian couples of using a sperm donor. 

CARDINAL: HOMOSEXUALITY, NOT ‘CLERICALISM,’ LED TO ABUSE CRISIS

by David Nussman  •  ChurchMilitant.com  •  October 26, 2018 
'The majority of the acts which have been committed are homosexual acts done with young men'

DETROIT (ChurchMilitant.com) - Cardinal Raymond Burke is rebutting those who say "clericalism" is the root cause of the clerical sex abuse scandal.

In an interview with Polonia Christiana published this week, the cardinal said, "First of all when people say: 'Oh, no, this is caused by clericalism', I ask them, 'What do you mean?' And most people can't tell me what they mean by 'clericalism.'"

Cardinal Burke clarified that clericalism might motivate people to cover up sexually abusive priests; but the cause of the abuse itself is often homosexuality.

"There is no question that the majority of the acts which have been committed are homosexual acts done with young men," he said.

There is no question that the majority of the acts which have been committed are homosexual acts done with young men.Tweet

While speaking about the homosexual predation scandal surrounding ex-Cdl. Theodore McCarrick, Cdl. Burke noted, "The people rightly feel profoundly betrayed when they see that a priest, who had been abusing young people, was ... promoted to be a bishop, then promoted to be a bishop of a diocese and archdiocese, and then of the archdiocese that is our national capitol, and then made a cardinal."

He also commented, "There is an attempt to simply let this go and not take this seriously. People are not — the good Catholics are not — accepting this, and I don't blame them. I don't accept it either." 

 

This year witnessed a "summer of shame" for the Catholic Church in America, beginning in June with explosive news that there was a credible allegation that McCarrick had committed homosexual abuse. This led to further revelations — including reports that McCarrick preyed on seminarians.

Pope Calls To Defend Against "The Great Accuser"

Earlier this year, after it was revealed that over 300 priests had molested over one thousand children in the Pennsylvania area. A demand to oust predatory Catholic priests reached a fever pitch. However, the process to bring these priests to justice has been stonewalled at every turn.

The cases are numerous. But one in particular has set its sites on the Vatican itself. Filed in federal court in San Francisco. The Vatican is charged with violating customary international human rights law, including the Universal Declaration of Human Rights and the Convention on the Rights of the Child.


Meanwhile, Pope Francis urges business as usual. Speaking to Bishops around the world, Francis called on Church members to defend the 'mother' against the 'great accuser'. An attempt in the middle of a hurricane of scandals to continue covering up a century of documented abuse. - Jon Bowne Reports

Pope Still Blames Sexual Abuse Crisis on Clericalism

The Wall Street Journal

"...The 60-page final document, released late Saturday, devoted two paragraphs to the subject of abuse, calling for “rigorous measures of prevention,” starting with the selection and education of clergy and other church employees. Quoting Pope Francis, the document lays much of the blame for sex abuse on “clericalism,” or an excessive deference to the church’s hierarchy."

Pope Decries ‘Persecution’ of Catholic Church Through Accusations

By  Francis X. Rocca

Updated Oct. 27, 2018 6:26 p.m. ET

ROME—Pope Francis told a gathering of bishops from around the world that the Catholic Church is being persecuted through accusations—an apparent allusion to clerical sex-abuse scandals that have undermined the credibility of the papacy and church hierarchy over the course of this year.

Addressing the closing session of a synod of bishops at the Vatican on Saturday, the pope repeated warnings he has made in recent weeks against the “Great Accuser,” or the devil, who “in this moment is accusing us strongly, and this accusation becomes persecution,” and who seeks to “soil the church.”

“This is the moment to defend our mother” the church, said the pope, in remarks unlikely to mollify critics who say he has failed to recognize the hierarchy’s responsibility for the abuse crisis. “The accuser is attacking our mother through us, and no one touches our mother.”

Pittsburgh Synagogue Shooting Shakes Close-knit Jewish Community

'Utter Shock and Disbelief': Pittsburgh Synagogue Shooting Shakes Close-knit Jewish Community

About 40 percent of Squirrel Hill’s 15,000 residents are Jewish. On Saturday, they found themselves on lockdown, wondering which of their friends or relatives were alive

Dina Kraft 

In the immediate hours after the massacre at the Tree of Life synagogue in Pittsburgh's Squirrel Hill neighborhood on Saturday, residents were on lockdown in their homes, wondering which of their friends or relatives were dead or alive.

Squirrel Hill's residents describe it as a beloved neighborhood, considered a peaceful place – before an attack on one of the area's four synagogues marked it as the site of the deadliest attack on the Jewish community in U.S. history.

Squirrel Hill is a quiet neighborhood, full of walkable streets lined with large old oak and elm trees, a mix of Tudor homes, rambling brick houses and apartment buildings. Some 40 percent of its residents are Jewish. It is a rare phenomenon: an urban American neighborhood that has maintained the Jewish heart of its city for over a century.

Israel: Iranian Force in Syria Behind Rocket Attack on South

IDF says that Islamic Jihad is behind attacks Friday night, under orders from Iran. Adds that it holds Hamas responsible for the Gaza Strip and has therefore targeted only Hamas targets

Amos Harel and Yaniv Kubovich Oct 27, 2018 12:22 PM

The Islamic Jihad is responsible for firing rockets into Gaza Friday night, Israel's security services said Saturday.

Friday night's events, in which 36 rockets were launched at Israel from Gaza, "were led by the Islamic Jihad with clear guidance from Iran and the Revolutionary Guards’ Quds force in Syria," the IDF spokesman said Saturday. "The entire incident was under Iran's guidance through the Quds force that led the attacks," the IDF said.

The IDF struck 87 Hamas targets Friday and an additional eight Islamic Jihad targets in Gaza on Saturday. On Saturday, the Islamic Jihad announced it had reached a cease-fire with Israel, brokered by Egypt.

According to the security services, the motives behind the rockets launch are still unclear: The organization could be following an Iranian order, given reports for progress on reaching an agreement in Gaza. Another option is that Islamic Jihad is not satisfied with the achievements Hamas reached with Israel, and is pushing Palestinians to step up their efforts in order to gain more ground.

China : Worst Persecution in 40 Years

Asia Harvest

What's the Latest News from China?

In recent months the government has markedly increased the pressure on Christians throughout the country. We received an unconfirmed report from a long-term China missionary stating that 314 house church Christians have been killed in recent months, and hundreds more are missing. Most house church leaders have gone into hiding and have disconnected their phones and other devices because of the incredible surveillance capabilities of the state.

Thousands of house churches (which are considered illegal in China) have been closed. Reflecting the actions of Mao's Red Guards in the 1960s, religious symbols such as crosses and Scripture posters have been torn down and replaced by flags of China or portraits of President Xi Jinping.

Note: Our website version of this newsletter includes several important links to articles and videos to help people understand what's going on in China and how best to pray. Please visit www.asiaharvest.org for more detailed information.

Some congregations have been ordered to sing the national anthem or other patriotic songs at the start of their services. Others have been ordered to install government facial-recognition surveillance cameras inside their worship halls, and those that have refused to comply have been forced to shut down.

Landlords who rent buildings to Christians are being heavily fined by the government, with new laws allowing fines of between 20,000 to 200,000 Yuan (almost US$30,000). This has created a climate of fear and suspicion, and thousands of fellowships have been forced out of the premises they were renting. On the streets, the police have the power to stop and search anyone they wish and to check their phones and other devices for content they deem a threat to society. These threats may include the presence of a Bible app or visits to Christian websites, or any communication considered unpatriotic.

The most severe persecution is occurring in the vast Xinjiang region in northwest China. In recent years a promising church movement had emerged among the Uyghur, Kazakh and Kirghiz people groups, but most of the church leaders have been arrested and taken to concentration camps in the desert. Reputable news organizations estimate at least one million people are being detained and tortured in those camps right now. Many suburbs in cities like Urumqi, Hami and Kashgar are now depopulated and countless buildings have been boarded up. Although this initiative was designed to target Muslims in border areas, almost all Uygur and Kazakh church leaders have also been taken away. The government doesn't care whether someone is a Muslim or Christian. It's all the same to them.

Virginia, D.C., Investigate Catholic Church Clergy Abuse

CBS 6

RICHMOND, Va. -- The attorney general of Virginia said Wednesday that he is investigating clergy sexual abuse in the Catholic Church, adding to a rapidly growing list of state investigations.

Attorney General Mark R. Herring said his probe was motivated by the Pennsylvania grand jury report, issued in August, that found more than 300 "predator priests" had abused more than 1,000 children in that state since 1947.

"Like so many Americans, I read the grand jury report on clergy abuse in the Catholic dioceses in Pennsylvania, and I felt sick. It made me sick to see the extent of the damage done, the efforts to cover it up, and the complicity and enabling that went on by powerful people who should have known better and should have done more to protect vulnerable children," said Herring.

Why Did The Pope Say Christ’s Throne Is The Cross?

Christ’s throne is the cross, Pope Francis says

VATICAN CITY - The throne of Jesus Christ is the cross upon which he gave his life for the world, and those who wish to follow him must be prepared to sacrifice everything, Pope Francis said Sunday.

The article continues to quote the pope and what amounts to be papal proof texting leading the listener to the social gospel, and not the gospel of salvation.

Here's what the Bible says about Jesus Christ's throne...

Revelation 1

12 Then I turned to see the voice that was speaking to me, and on turning I saw seven golden lampstands, 13 and in the midst of the lampstands one like a son of man, clothed with a long robe and with a golden sash around his chest. 14 The hairs of his head were white, like white wool, like snow. His eyes were like a flame of fire, 15 his feet were like burnished bronze, refined in a furnace, and his voice was like the roar of many waters. 16 In his right hand he held seven stars, from his mouth came a sharp two-edged sword, and his face was like the sun shining in full strength.


17 When I saw him, I fell at his feet as though dead. But he laid his right hand on me, saying, “Fear not, I am the first and the last, 18 and the living one. I died, and behold I am alive forevermore, and I have the keys of Death and Hades. 



Acts 7:55–56; Romans 8:34; Ephesians 1:20; Colossians 3:1; Hebrews 1:3; 
Hebrews 8:1; Hebrews 10:12; 

55 But he, ⁿfull of the Holy Spirit, gazed into heaven and saw ^othe glory of God, andJesus standing ^pat the right hand of God. 56 And he said, “Behold, I see ^qthe heavensopened, and ^rthe Son of Man standing ^pat the right hand of God.”

100 ISIS TERRORISTS CAUGHT IN COUNTRY ALLOWING CARAVAN TO TRANSIT

Guatemalan president acknowledges 'smuggling corridor'

Some 100 ISIS terrorists have been caught in Guatemala, where a caravan of thousands of migrants is headed to the United States.

Judicial Watch cited a report in Guatemala’s Prensa Libra of the admission by Guatemala’s president.

“Why should Americans care about this?” Judicial Watch questioned. “A caravan of Central American migrants is making its way north. Let’s not forget that Guatemala is one of the countries that bombarded the U.S. with illegal immigrant minors under Barack Obama’s open border free-for-all. They came in droves from Honduras, El Salvador and Guatemala through the Mexican border and for years Uncle Sam rolled out the welcome mat offering housing, food, medical treatment and a free education.”

Judicial Watch pointed out a terrorist “could have easily slipped in considering the minors, coined Unaccompanied Alien Children, were not properly vetted and some turned out to be violent gangbangers who went on to commit heinous crimes in their adopted land of opportunity.”

“In fact, the nation’s most violent street gang, Mara Salvatrucha (MS-13), was energized by the barrage of UACs. The Texas Department of Public Safety even issued a report documenting how the MS-13 emerged as a top tier gang in the state thanks to the influx of illegal alien gang members that came with the UACs,” Judicial Watch said.

“At the time more than 60,000 UACs – many with criminal histories – had stormed into the U.S. in a matter of months. Tens of thousands more eventually made it north.”

Judicial Watch noted Guatemala long has been known as a smuggling corridor to the U.S. for foreigners from African and Asian countries.

Chicago cathedral hosts gay ‘meet-up’ group led by ‘gay’ priest-masseur

CHICAGO, October 12, 2018 (LifeSiteNews) – A Chicago priest who advertises on the internet as a “gay” masseur who does “man to man bodywork” says he has permission to host an openly homosexual group at his Catholic priory. 

Openly homosexual Fr. Michael Guimon is a member of the Friars Servants of Mary — or Servites — and head of the priory at Our Lady of Sorrows National Basilica. He’s also the Servites’ formation director and senior care minister, with specialties of “spiritual companion and massage therapist.” 

Profile pic of Fr. Michael Guimon at Chicago Meetup website for “Gay, Bi, Trans, Queer and Questioning Men."Meetup.com

Fr. Guimon hosts the homosexual monthly meetup Rainbow Warriors in Our Lady of Sorrows monastery, evidently with his order's blessing. 

And he appears to be thriving on Chicago’s online homosexual meetup scene. 

Fr. Guimon is listed on the “Gay Body Workers” website as a professional masseur who does “Man to Man Body Work, and is signed up as both member and organizer “Michael G.” on the Mankind Pride of Chicago Meetup website for “Gay, Bi, Trans, Queer and Questioning Men.” 

Moreover, Guimon’s profiles on the site (here and here) list the many homosexual meetups he’s involved with, although after LifeSiteNews contacted him, one of these has been set to private.

Screen shot of Fr. Michael Guimon's profile page at gaybodyworkers.ning.com.

The meetups include: Men Cuddling Men (Chicago), The Body Electric School Chicago, CANS Chicago Area Naturists Sons, Chicago Social Activities for Gay Guys 40+, Gay Guys Do! a gay men’s group to get out & do good, North Side Gay Game Night, Gay Chicago Singles Event, Nude Yoga Chicago, Chicago Gays Unite, MORE for Gay Men.

Cupich’s double standard on homosexuality

Fr. Guimon lives in the same archdiocese as Fr. Paul Kalchik, who was recently removed from his parish after he privately burned a rainbow-and-cross banner against the wishes of Chicago archbishop Cardinal Blase Cupich. 

Fr. Kalchik, who maintains that a previous pastor of his parish died in the rectory attached to a sex-machine, remains in hiding after being threatened with commitment to a psychiatric hospital for defying Cupich and destroying the rainbow banner that once hung behind the altar as an act of “exorcism.” 

Indeed, the treatment of the two priests brings into sharp relief a double standard in Chicago under Cupich’s leadership. 

Known for his LGBT sympathies, Cupich’s group at the current youth synod is the only one to call for recognition of “other types of families.”  Cupich also said at the 2015 synod on the family that homosexual persons can decide for themselves if they can receive Holy Communion, a position he reiterated to ABC News.

Pope: Church Afflicted by Perversion of Clericalism

Pope: God wants change in church stricken by perversion of clericalism

"I believe the Lord wants a change in the church," which is afflicted by the "perversion" of clericalism, the pope told the Jesuits during a meeting Sept. 23 in Vilnius, Lithuania."

Really?  The pope still will not admit that the decades of Catholic clerical sexual abuse is largely due to homosexual predation.

No surprise, the pope refuses to judge whether homosexuality is right or wrong!

Justice Dept. Investigates Catholic Church Sex Abuse in Pennsylvania

FOX NEWS

The Justice Department has opened a probe to investigate child sexual abuse within Pennsylvania's Roman Catholic Church, the Archdiocese of Philadelphia confirmed to Fox News.

“The Archdiocese of Philadelphia has received a subpoena issued by a federal grand jury, which requires the production of certain documents," a statement read. "The Archdiocese will cooperate with the United States Department of Justice in this matter.”

Federal prosecutors served subpoenas to the church last week after a grand jury report released in August found priests in the eastern state molested more than 1,000 children.

The Archdiocese of Erie confirmed it has received a subpoena from the Justice Department, and "its counsel is in conversation" with federal investigators.

Hundreds of priests were said to have molested more than 1,000 children — and possibly many more — since the 1940s, and senior church officials allegedly covered up the abuse, according to the report.

Rick Warren Coaching Catholic Priests - "We are all on the same team"

Pastor Rick Warren Talks to New York Priests About Maintaining Moral Integrity

Rick Warren continues his romance with Rome by addressing 800 priests in New York.

Warren homogenizes Roman Catholicism and Protestantism by using inclusive phrases such as:

• calling the audience ,"Brothers"
• "...the Ministry to Which God Has Called Us"
• "...what we do matters... the Church of Jesus Christ"
• “That’s our calling...” 
• "We are all in this together"
• "Christians must stick together"
• “We’re on the same team”

Unsuspecting Christians would serve themselves well to review why Rick Warren's PEACE TRAIN causes biblical conflict and confusion, with Rome as it's final destination.

Virginia Middle School Bans Christmas carols containing word “Jesus”

IRISH POST

A SCHOOL has come under fire after students were told they would not be singing any carols that include the word "Jesus" this Christmas.

Chesterfield County, Virginia

Pupils at Robious Middle School in THE us have been told they won't be singing any songs representing Jesus due to the "sacred nature" of Christ.

That's according to a series of emails written by the Virginia school's chorus teacher to concerned parent David Allen, which was subsequently passed on to NBC12.

"We had a few students who weren't comfortable singing a piece I have done many times in the past, but it is of a sacred nature and does mention Jesus," one of the emails explains.

After meeting with school administrators, the school opted against singing any carols of a directly sacred nature in an attempt at being more sensitive to the school's diverse population.
