  by Shifra on December 6, 2018

  Tree in Durham’s Memorial Park No decorating a Christmas tree or placing a Chanukah menorah on public land. But a “winter carnival,” and changing Columbus Day to Indigenous Peoples’ Day are no problem? Ok, got it. Via Western Journal. The Durham, New Hampshire, Human Rights Commission has recommended that the town cease its annual Christmas tree lighting tradition on public land out of concern it promotes the Christian faith at the exclusion of others. The commission was established by the town council for the purpose of eliminating “prejudice and discrimination because of race, color, creed, religion, national origin, ancestry, place of birth, age, sex, sexual orientation, (and) gender identity,” among a multitude of other categories of people.

• German Politicians ‘Alarmed’ at Scale of Anti-Christian Hate Attacks

  by Tammy on February 5, 2018

  Great job, Germany, importing Jew-hatred, misogyny and persecution of Christians. They’ve been in a coma, obviously, as they’ve been importing people from a region that is swamped in hatred. This is out of control and has become a problem because of willful ignorance within the government. We’ve known for quite some time, this will not end well. Via Breitbart. Hate crime figures leaked by police in Germany have caused alarm, as they revealed murder, assault, and arson numbering among almost 100 attacks which targeted Christians in 2017. Published by the Funke media group several months before annual crime statistics are due to be officially released, the Federal Criminal Police Office (BKA) data showed attacks on churches and Christian symbols accounted...

• Court Orders WWI Peace Cross Be Destroyed Or Turned Into A Slab

  by Shifra on October 20, 2017

  The judges ruled that this Maryland monument is in violation of the Constitution’s First Amendment Establishment Clause. According to The Heritage Foundation: None of the Framers believed that a governmental connection to religion was an evil in itself. Rather, many (though not all) opposed an established church because they believed that it was a threat to the free exercise of religion. Their primary goal was to protect free exercise. That was the main thrust of James Madison’s famous Memorial and Remonstrance (1785), in which he argued that the state of Virginia ought not to pay the salaries of the Anglican clergy because that practice was an impediment to a person’s free connection to whatever religion his conscience directed him. How...

• The Ninth of Av: Jewish Day of Mourning and Remembrance

  by Shifra on August 1, 2017

  One day, when I was in the fifth grade, my teacher walked into class, holding a large book. Flipping through the pages, he said he wanted to show us a picture. “It’s called the Arch of Titus,” he told us. “It’s in Rome.” As the book was passed from student to student, my teacher asked us to look closely at the top of the Arch. He explained that the Arch was built to celebrate the destruction of Jerusalem at the hands of Emperor Titus.in 70 A.D. Carved onto the top of the Arch, Jews being taken into captivity are depicted. And the conquering Romans mocked the captured Jews by calling out: “Hierosolyma est perdita” (“Jerusalem is lost”). Then he asked...

  by Tammy on March 3, 2016

  Good. Now, there is some risk here if the court rules against the florist, but there’s a good chance there may be a ruling defending religious freedom. If you’re not familiar with my position on this issue in general, please see my column from April 2015: Blessed are the pizza proprietors who are reviled for their faith. Via Washington Times. The Washington Supreme Court has agreed to hear the case of a florist penalized for declining to prepare floral arrangements for a same-sex wedding. The court announced Wednesday that it would take up the appeal of Barronelle Stutzman, owner of Arlene’s Flowers in Richland, Washington, who has been at the center of a high-profile legal battle pitting the First Amendment...
