Church Pastors Sold Out Freedom of Religion for 30 Pieces of Silver – Alfonzo Rachel
Christian Pastor Youcef Nadarkhani Reportedly Freed After Three Years in Iranian Prison | TheBlaze.com
After three years, Iran has finally set Christian Pastor Joucef Nadarkhani free. He was acquitted of apostasy, but convicted of evangelizing to Muslims. The three years he already served in prison were considered enough for the latter charge.
Some are celebrating that justice has been served. Pharmer is very happy that the Pastor Nadarkhani won’t be executed as originally planned, but three years in prison for preaching is not justice.
Georgetown U: Intolerant, Bigoted, Leftie-Catholics
KiraDavis.net » Is Georgetown Guitly of an -ism? Student Loses Scholarship over Objections.
This story, turned up by Kira Davis, is bugging Pharmer, for more than one blast-from-the-past-reason, and therefore has to be on the blog.
The Sandra Fluke incident, as well as the leftism, and the need to appease Barack Obama, has removed Georgetown from the list of possible institutions of higher learning for Pharmer’s kids.. Why pour hard earned money into ruining one’s offspring? Here’s another reason to boycott.
Jarrett Roby has suffered stereotyping and discrimination at the hands of Georgetown University’s leftists, for refusing to attend LBGTQ sensitivity training on religious grounds. When he politely voiced his objections to resident advisers at Georgetown’s summer program, rather than just blowing the session off, Mr Roby was falsely accused of violent intent, and rewarded with an escort out of Georgetown by their police. (Had he been a Muslim rather than a Christian, do you think the response would have been different?)
Astonishingly, Jarrett Roby intends to persevere at Georgetown in the fall, though his Community Scholars Program Scholarship has been revoked. Pharmer prays that he avoids the brainwashing, and that he is somehow able to convert them back to Christianity instead.
U.S. Foreign Policy In Middle East is Decidedly Anti-Christian.
Michael Carl explains the travails of Christians in the Middle East under the Muslim Brotherhood and various Jihadist movements which have taken power after the “Arab Spring”. U.S. foreign policy has been to support these movements, under which Christians are being persecuted and killed.
The future looks very bleak for Christians in Syria, Egypt and Libya under the Muslim brotherhood.
Romney Makes Nice with the Catholics

The Amish are Coming!
Amish enjoy Expected boom in numbers – Washington Times. <–worth a look.
Amish are rapidly spreading across the United States, with their number of communities more than doubling since the 1990 census. There are now estimated to be 456 settlements in 29 states. With a strong belief in family life, the Amish, as a general rule, would rather be farming, or running their own businesses. Where populations of Amish are larger, (such as Pharmer’s region), they also work for outside businesses in construction, carpentry or other industries requiring their skills and strong work ethic. They’re also at local farmers’ markets, selling the best stuff. Your’s truly is still experiencing a happy buzz from the last market we attended, because the Amish experts dropped by to inspect our ginormous sweet peppers.
Why is this religion is growing despite it’s strict limitation of technology?
Amish regard reproduction and kids very positively, taking over where so many U.S. Catholics wimped out. Young people respect The Rules. Even though Amish teens are permitted an opportunity to enter the outside, high tech world, and go nuts for awhile, about 85% of them choose to go back to the ‘Old Time Religion’, and are baptized as adults.
In stark contrast, the push-over religions, which have shed their strong ethical directives, are bleeding membership.
Have the Amish moved into your ‘hood? Lucky you! There’s a lot to be learned from them.
Why Would Anyone in the U.S. Shoot Up a Sikh Temple?
A single attacker entered the Sikh Temple in the Oak Creek suburb of Milwaukee, WI, and killed six worshippers before he was killed in gunfire with police, outside the building.
So far, no one knows why he attacked, but plenty of leftists, who wouldn’t be able to distinguish between Sikhs and Muslims, are blaming it on the Tea Party and calling it an Anti-Muslim or Racist Act.
Pharmer supposes that the attacker must have been thoroughly Bonkers, as well as sociopathic.
Among the victims are Parkash Singh, and Satwant Kaleka (president of the temple). So far the most info is available at Milwaukee Journal Sentinel. That news source reports that there are about 3000 Sikh families in S.E. Wisconsin who gather at the Religious Society in Brookfield and the Sikh Temple of Wisconsin in Oak Creek. The paper recalls a similar incident in 2005 when Terry Ratzman attacked a gathering of the Living Church of God in Brookville, and killed 7 people as well as himself.
Prayers for the victims of the massacre at the Sikh Temple and for their families.
Gay Employees at Chick-fil-A Caught in the Middle.
Gay Chick-Fil-A Employees Reveal What It Has Been Like To Work There Lately – Business Insider.
We have some indication that Chick-Fil-A hasn’t been worrying about their employee’s private sex lives in the above article. But worklife is different now. Gays working for the company have been caught in the middle of the leftie war against their company, which was touched off by CEO Dan Cathy’s personal belief about gay marriage.
Apparently the homosexual employees are either getting blamed for hating gays, because of the gay marriage issue, or being thanked for opposition to it.
Some of what they hear is off point and crazy: “I hope you choke on your chicken” and either support or opposition because “your company hates gays”.
The situation of homosexual employees at Chick-fil-A brings home the point that everyone’s lives would be easier, including the those of gays, if the lefties would quit their war on freedom of religion. We notice that the lefties prefer to attack Christians, for opposing gay marriage, while at the same time supporting the sects of Muslims who chop the heads off of homosexuals.
Another case in point: In the U.S. HIV remains largely an affliction of men who have sex with men. Leftie heroes,Obama and Kathleen Sebelius, are working to close down the Catholic Health Care Institutions in the U.S. by insisting that they participate in birth control, sterilizations and abortion. By this means they will be shutting off a large proportion of care for patients with HIV. It’s estimated that world wide, 25% of health programs for HIV patients are provided by the Catholic Church. which has been at the forefront of that mission from the beginning.
