Church of England: Gay Sex OK if Part of a "Stable, Loving, Committed" Relationship - The New American

Under pressure from LGBTQ activists to publicly endorse homosexual marriage, the Church of England’s (CofE) Archbishop of York, Stephen Cottrell, recently said that, although the church will not officiate at homosexual weddings, the behavior itself, when in the context of a “stable, loving, committed” relationship, is not necessarily sinful.
I just kept thinking… “this has gotta be satire, there’s no way they actually said that.”

If you don't have food storage or a means to grow food, you are going to starve.

TUCKER CARLSON: Why we're paranoid about the American food supply | Fox News

Then Biden continued, recounting a conversation he had with European allies. He told us all about it. When he met with the group, Biden said, they spoke about "how we could increase and disseminate more rapidly food shortages." That's what Joe Biden said verbatim. It's on tape.

So here you have the president of the United States pledging to increase food shortages at a press conference. That seemed like a newsworthy event, but not a single news organization in this country seemed to notice it happened. Nor did the White House correct it. But others were watching. So within days, that clip wound up on social media and Facebook flagged it immediately as "false news."

The LDS Church’s well-published support of the Respect For (Gay) Marriage Act, and sending two General Authorities to the Biden signing celebration at the White House is ABSOLUTELY an admission that gay sex is okay in a stable, loving, committed relationship, i.e. a gay marriage.

Vaccinated MSNBC Host Reveals She Developed Pericarditis and Myocarditis Due to "Common Cold" (VIDEO)

MSNBC’s Yasmin Vossoughian revealed to her viewers on Saturday that she had been missing for a while because she developed myocarditis and pericarditis allegedly due to a common cold.

“I know from my Twitter feed that many of you have wondered why I have been off the air for a little while. Well, I have been dealing with a little bit of a health scare,” Vossoughian told her viewers.

The newscaster said that she first experienced chest pains back in December 2021 and that they “waxed and waned over the period of ten days.”

Initially, the doctor thought she was experiencing reflux.

Married exec claims he was fired by woke Google for not being 'inclusive' in aftermath of molestation at hands of Asian female executive - TheBlaze

Ryan Olohan worked at the company for 16 years until his termination on Aug. 5, 2022. His new lawsuit notes that a Google Employee Investigations Team chalked up his exit to a failure to be "inclusive" and to showing "favoritism towards high performers."

Apparently Olohan's favoritism did not extend to Tiffany Miller, director of Google's programmatic media and agency partnerships.

According to the suit, which names Miller and Google as defendants, Miller drunkenly molested Olohan at a New York City restaurant in December 2019 during an event hosted by Adam Stewart, vice president of consumer, government, and entertainment at Google.

TYRANNY: Minnesota Democrat Officials Including AG Keith Ellison Want to Take Away Dr. Jensen's License after He Spoke Out About Inflated COVID Numbers

“Last Friday I received a 7-page document that told me if I had an 86-year-old patient that had pneumonia but was never tested for COVID-19 but some time after she came down with pneumonia we learned that she had been exposed to her son who had no symptoms but later on was identified with COVID-19, then it would be appropriate to diagnose on the death certificate COVID-19,” Dr. Scott Jensen said.

Prayer outside abortion clinics in UK will become a criminal offense under new law

Yesterday the House of Lords passed an amendment to the Public Order Bill that will introduce buffer zones outside abortion clinics. For over eight years the largest abortion provider in the UK, (British Pregnancy Advisory Service) has campaigned to introduce these buffer zones. Firstly what is a buffer zone?

A buffer zone is a 150m area in which it is illegal to oppose the abortions happening within the clinic. It means activities such as protesting, handing out leaflets and holding vigils will be prohibited within that area. Buffer zones (also known as ‘censorship’ or ‘safe’ zones) would effectively ban and criminalise volunteers from peacefully praying and offering support to women entering abortion clinics. Even though this bill has not yet become law, abortion activists have been using the existing Public Space Protection Orders as buffer zones and the police have been enforcing these (more on this later).

BPAS launched a campaign back in 2014 called “Back Off” along with 19 other groups to push for these buffer zones. In their press release in November 2014 they stated “We now believe legislation to create safe spaces around clinics and advice centres free from activists would do much to minimise the distress these people cause women, and ensure healthcare staff can work in an environment free from intimidation.”. What do they mean by “safe spaces”. An abortion clinic is certainly not a safe space for the baby about to lose its life. It is not a safe space for the mother about to have her child killed. BPAS talk about minimising distress. Maybe the best way to remove distress would be to stop killing children. Talking the life of a family member will cause maximum distress to the vast majority of mothers and fathers.

Mister Rogers Tried To Warn Us About Transgenderism

In his first appearance on “The Tonight Show” starring Johnny Carson in 1980, Rogers delved into the song’s importance. When Carson asked Rogers a series of lighthearted questions about his show and asked how Rogers communicates important themes to his audience of children, it didn’t take long for the host to pivot to the topic of sex. “Are they too young for that?” Carson asked.

That’s how they learn the difference between boys and girls, Rogers replied. “Sometimes children think that they might change, they might have to change after a while,” he continued, to which the audience laughed.

But Rogers wasn’t laughing. “You know, we laugh about that now,” he said, “but it’s because we had that concern when we were little.“

There are a lot of people that think this is all by chance and unrelated. I believe it is on purpose and coordinated.

Explanation? Biden Said He Discussed How to “Increase ... Food Shortages” — Now They’re Reality - The New American

Whatever the truth, here’s what requires no guesswork: There have been increasing food shortages since that time. Egg prices have recently been skyrocketing, for example, which authorities attribute to the avian flu’s effects. Yet now there’s a report about poultry farmers complaining that their hens had suddenly stopped laying eggs for extended periods, a phenomenon they blame on corporation-sourced chicken feed. They also claim that when they switched to locally sourced grain, their birds immediately became productive again.

This all, of course, sounds like a conspiracy theory, and maybe that’s all it is. Or is it a conspiracy fact?

Food processing plants and distribution centers are now burning to crisp in rapid succession, a peculiar trend that has been growing since 2021.

Digital humans created by AI could replace supermodels | Metro News

First, it came for art and college essays, now AI is set to take the place of supermodels by creating digital humans.

A German company has launched a system that sees state-of-the-art ‘digital humans’ pose for campaigns.

ColorDigital claims that their DMIx StudioAvatars have a ‘never seen before’ photorealistic quality.

This enables brands ‘to build up their own completely unique team of digital models to use in sales and marketing’.

The Digi-models – who come with names including Joy, Nina, Noah and Theo – can be customised and individualised to a brand’s preference.

Nebraska state Sen. Megan Hunt (D) has put forward a proposal to bar young people from attending church events, like youth groups, and punish those who bring youth to such events.

Now its time to defund the police.

British police hiring illiterate officers, some with criminal backgrounds, in hopes of meeting diversity quotas: Report - TheBlaze

In hopes of satisfying diversity recruitment quotas, London's Metropolitan Police prioritized immutable characteristics prized by DEI consultants over candidates' relevant skills.

An inspector tasked with assessing police forces and policing has concluded that in the pursuit of this allegedly "noble and right" end, the Met police have dropped their standards and in some instances accepted applicants that could not competently read or write in English. Some recruits also happened to have significant criminal histories.

11,000 Police Surveillance Cars With 360-Degree Cameras and "Perimeter Alerts" To Patrol NYC

Below is a list of seven things that should worry everyone about Police Interceptors:

Who is watching what police vehicles are recording (Fusion Centers)?

How long do police store each vehicles’ videos for?

How will police officers react to Police Perimeter Alerts?

What is the difference between low, medium and high Police Perimeter Alert settings?

How does Ford’s AI determine if someone or something is a threat to a police officer?

Why are police officers recording who is behind them?

360-degree police surveillance vehicles will erode everyone’s privacy.

Business Insider Claims That Cannibalism Used To Be A Popular Medical Remedy – winepressnews.com

“Europeans would ingest ground up mummies for headaches. And human fat, blood, and bone were used to treat everything from gout to nosebleeds,” Insider wrote.

Mainstream media continues to push the benefits and even insinuate the necessity of cannibalism, a trend that continues to be regurgitated each year.

For example, on December 18th, 2022, Wired retweeted an article they published in 2017 titled “What’s Wrong with Eating People?” The outlet wrote in their tweet: “Human cannibalism has been known to transmit debilitating diseases. But what if it were lab-grown human meat?”

'You're playing with fire': Damning study indicates Merck & Co.'s COVID-19 drug Lagevrio is responsible for new mutations of the virus in patients - TheBlaze

A new preprint study by British and American researchers at the Francis Crick Institute, the Imperial College in London, and at other esteemed institutions has revealed that mutations linked to Merck's pill have been found in viral samples taken from dozens of patients, reported Bloomberg.

The researchers suggested that patients treated with molnupiravir "might not fully clear SARS-CoV-2 infections, with the potential for onward transmission of molnupiravir-mutated viruses."

"We find that a specific class of long phylogenetic branches appear almost exclusively in sequences from 2022, after the introduction of molnupiravir treatment, and in countries and age-groups with widespread usage of the drug," said the study. "Our data suggest a signature of molnupiravir mutagenesis can be seen in global sequencing databases, in some cases with onwards transmission."

The researchers indicated that "sequencing data suggest that in at least some cases, viruses with a large number of molnupiravir-induced substitutions have been transmitted to other individuals."

Canadian Government Forces Dairy Farmer to Dump 30,000 Liters of Milk Because He Exceeded His Quota (VIDEO)

A dairy farmer from Southern Ontario, Canada has spoken out about how the Canadian government makes farms dump thousands of liters of fresh milk because they have gone over the quota.

In a video shared on TikTok by Travis Huigen, Canadian dairy farmer Jerry Human expresses his outrage at the Canadian government and the Dairy Farmers of Ontario (DFO) for wasting hundreds of liters of fresh milk despite inflation.

“Right now, during the winter months, you milk quite a bit more milk because the feed is very consistent. And if you do a good job, you will produce quite a bit of milk. But right now, we’re over our quota, and it’s regulated by the government, and [implemented] by the DFO,” said Human.

“Look at this milk running away. It’s the end of the month [and] I dump 30,000 liters of milk and it breaks my heart. This year Canadian milk is $7 a liter.”

I tried to show on the other thread where I'm allowed to talk about this, they have been making toys and dolls and action figures - and animating cartoons as trans, mixed, androgynous and inverted - even if the character is NOT in the show... they still draw them that way and just call them a "girl" or a "boy" - even if they don't have the proper features/ratios/proportions/etc.

They have been conditioning our minds for a long time not to be able to recognize biological girls and boys, and of course they start with the kids.

NBC News Suddenly Concerned About Domestic Terrorism Charges Now That They're Being Used Against Antifa

From NBC News:

Arrests in Atlanta ‘Cop City’ protests raise concerns over domestic terrorism charges

The decision by prosecutors to pursue domestic terrorism charges against opponents of a police training center outside Atlanta is drawing criticism, with some legal experts saying it’s a potentially dangerous overreach that could be viewed as politically motivated.

More than a dozen people have been charged with domestic terrorism in connection with the protests, including seven people after a Jan. 18 confrontation with police who were trying to clear the proposed site of the center, dubbed “Cop City” by critics.

One man was fatally shot by police in the confrontation after he opened fire and wounded a state trooper, authorities said. In protests that followed the killing and the police sweeps, six people were arrested and charged with domestic terrorism.

In December, the same charges were filed against five people after law enforcement moved in to clear barricades and confront protesters.

Critics of domestic terrorism laws, including some civil rights groups, oppose them “because of the risk of politicization, because they can be used against politically disfavored groups by the government,” Patrick Keenan, a professor of law at the University of Illinois, said.
