We see that the U.S. and western Europe are not on the list of the top 50 countries where Christians are persecuted.
But Mexico is. Given the prevalence (I thought) of Catholics in Mexico, that surprised me.

The headline on msn.com, from a Politco article is this: Trump EPA won’t limit 2 toxic chemicals in drinking water. Here’s a couple questions for you. Is supporting abortion worse than this, which affects millions of people? Is being pro-LGBT worse than not even trying to provide safe drinking water for millions of people?

My title is “Top 50 Countries With Persecution Of Christians”. The headline in Christianity Today was “Asia Rising: The Top 50 Countries Where It’s Hardest to Follow Jesus”. The CT headline made me wonder, why didn’t they use the word “persecution”. Why did they instead write “where it’s hardest to follow Jesus”? Furthermore, did they use the word persecution anywhere in the article at all? In fact, “persecution” appeared 64 times in a series of five articles that appeared on the web page. All five of them had titles about “hardest”, “most dangerous”, or “most difficult” to be a Christian. None of them used the word “persecution”. BTW, the one article I’m focusing on contained the word “persecution” 19 times.

I mean, it’s not like the satanic temple is out there forcing anything. They’re just taking advantage of things that Christians have pushed for! What are we thinking? Are we thinking?
Do we have eyes to see? Do we have ears to hear? Do we understand our own Scriptures? Do we even read them? Are we – Christians – so busy pushing our own agenda, rather than Jesus’ agenda, that we’re actually the ones bringing ourselves closer to the end?

World’s greatest teachers. Seven masters. One path. That’s amazing. The seven greatest teachers in the world all supposedly teaching the same thing. All leading down the same path. Awesome. Unbelievable. Well, actually, it really is unbelievable. Maybe because it’s not true?
Yeah – Seven Masters, One Path. It’s the title of a book that I got an email about today.
Interestingly, and I believe not by coincidence, I got another email today that was about one of those seven great teachers. Well, actually, it was about all seven of them.

The Discovery That Could Have Predicted Why the Universe Exists is the headline. The first comment at the time I read the article: Could there be an optical/mental illusion that we might be missing from these experiments? That comment is, accidentally or otherwise, right on target.
The Standard Model can’t possibly be right. But that same person says they have strengthened the Standard Model? And it excludes other models? Seriously.

Sadly, it’s not surprising that Donald Trump’s EPA wants to reopen a mine that’s poisoning and slowly killing people. But here’s a whole town that’s more concerned with people knowing about what’s really going on – than to do something about it. The people who come here for recreation are most likely clueless. But even the people who live there – they are shamed into not even taking proper care of their children.

Chinese authorities destroy two Marian shrines. Some are probably shocked, since the Vatican just signed a mysterious agreement with China related to having the Communist Party in China appoint Bishops of the Catholic Church in that country. However, if you’ve read China appoints seven Catholic Bishops – did the Pope just sell out underground churches? then you shouldn’t be surprised at all. If anything, this was to be expected.
So Sad. Can you even imagine Paul or any of the Saints from the early church telling people to Wait for better times because the Roman Empire isn’t eternal?

We can lie to ourselves and each other, but not to God. As hard as we try, and no matter how much we may convince ourselves of success, we cannot lie to God. I just read something from nbsnews.com – Ministers interrupt Sessions, are removed from religious freedom conference. I wish I could say I was shocked by it. Unfortunately, this kind of thing is happening all too often. And judging by the reaction of the first comment, people actually go for this stuff. I’d include the comment, but I’d have to bleep it.

I have anything against her. It’s more that our current president, and those in power that are following / becoming more like him, make me really take another look at both parties. And I don’t like either one.
There are so many things that, as a Christian, I must take exception to. But for whatever reason, God has us living in a democracy. And we have the ability to vote. But how do we choose, when both sides are so anti-Christian – if not in word then certainly in deed. The things both sides do should be unacceptable to Christians. So how do we choose who to vote for?
