On the difference between bogus and science – a reply to Sirpa Pietikäinen and Sophie in ‘t Veld

Why can’t those nasty conservatives not just be reverently silent when the EU Fundamental Rights Agency (FRA) solemnly pontificates on “LGBT discrimination”? Why can’t they stop using critical thought?? Some days ago I reported on the “LGBT Survey” conducted by the FRA, calling it “bogus research yielding bogus results”. This has aroused the anger and [...]

Daniel Cohn-Bendit and the 1968 Revolution: Paedophilia as Part of their Political Agenda

Is there any country in the world where a prominent politician could publicly boast his sexual experiences with children aged 6 years and less, and still stay in office? Probably not – but the European Parliament seems to have rules of its own. The politician is Daniel Cohn-Bendit, once upon a time a protagonist of [...]

Same-sex “marriage” in Ireland?

The constitutional convention backs the extension of marriage rights to same-sex couples, the Irish Times reports. With this decision, Ireland seems set to join the fold of countries that want to destroy the institution of marriage by re-defining it beyond recognisability. But it could still be prevented, as a popular referendum will be needed. In [...]

1.4 million rally in Paris against same-sex “marriage”. Government uses tear gas against Families with Children

The French Government’s plan to introduce same-sex “marriages” increasingly looks like the act of tyranny of a ruling class that wants to rule against, and not for, the people. But the resistance is growing. Despite the chilly weather, an estimated 1.4 million citizens participated in the second edition of the “demonstration for all” (Manifestation pour [...]

Every Dollar Spent on Condoms Means Less Dollars in Taxes

An article from Keith Riler at First Things fleshes out the long term effects of population control efforts among the poor in America. Riler suggests that the FED and States should gladly spend $11,000 worth of Medicare on births among poor Americans, rather then spend for family planning. Riler sees it as an investment. The argument is [...]

US, EU Ask to Delete “Inherent Right to Life, Liberty” at UN

As countries are deadlocked over negotiations going late into the night at the UN Commission on the Status of Women, the US and European Union have played a deadly card. One that contradicts a foundational principle of citizens and civilizations worldwide, as expressed in the Declaration of Independence and the UN Declaration of Human Rights. [...]

Sweden: The Country where Sun Shines at Midnight, and Men Can Get Pregnant

The insane Gender-LGBT-ideology reaches a new level in Sweden, where laws are changed in order to replace references to “pregnant women” with references to “pregnant persons”. The reason is that legal gender re-assignment is now possible without any surgical intervention, so that a person’s legal gender is henceforth dependent solely on his/her/its arbitrary will.

“Various Forms of the Family” Unnecessary in UN Resolutions

In December, the EU tried to qualify the word “family” with “various forms of the family exist” in a GA resolution on observing the international year of the family (2014). The proposal was shot down by the G77 (who sponsored the resolution), and the EU whined vociferously during the adoption of the resolution in the [...]

Ex oriente lux: Russia prohibits gay propaganda. And the Polish Parliament votes against gay “marriage”

While in many Western European countries governments continue their efforts to impose a radical and socially destructive “gay agenda” on their defenceless populations, a similar effort has remained unsuccessful in Poland. The Sejm (Parliament) voted against three different proposal to create a legal statute for homosexual partnerships, one of them foreseeing the possibility of “marriages” [...]

“We all are born from a man and a woman!”: 1.3 million demonstrate against same-sex “marriage” and adoption in Paris

The turnout was overwhelming and dwarfed even the most optimistic forecasts. While official police sources, apparently under pressure from the government, sought to downplay the number of demonstrators who, despite the biting cold, came to Paris last Sunday to rally against the socialist-led government’s plans to legislate for same-sex “marriages” (including a pretended “right” for [...]

Irish Times Reporter Admits: Story about “Woman dying because of Denied Abortion” was Muddled.

There is further evidence of how the tragic death of a pregnant woman in Ireland has been turned into a media hoax by the abortion lobby. Not only did the woman die of an infection that had nothing to do with her pregnancy (and against which an abortion would most certainly not have helped her), [...]

Ireland: the story of “the woman who died because she wasn’t allowed an abortion” falls in shambles

For the international abortion lobby, the whole story was just too convenient to be true: at the very moment when the Irish government is discussing controversial plans to liberalize abortion, a pregnant woman dies in an Irish hospital because she was denied an abortion that would have saved her life. “This is a Catholic country”, [...]

European Union: Anti-Religious Hate Groups Join Forces to Oust Catholic Politician

Strange things are going on in the EU Institutions.

Requests to Commission President Barroso to explain why exactly he forced Mr. Dalli to resign have been left unanswered. As [...]

Spain Needs a New Constitution

In Spain, the Constitutional Court has irremediably devalued the Constitution of which it was supposed to be the guardian by stating that the law that allows same-sex marriage was not unconstitutional.
