While the clampdown on "hate speech" continues, one group in particular has benefitted from the censorship of free speech and the muzzling of concerns: Radical Islamists. Under the guise of demanding tolerance, Islamists push their agenda and control the narrative completely free from criticism. Using terms like "hate speech" and "Islamophobe", they effectively silence opposition to their backward ways and heinous crimes, like those mass grooming gangs in the United Kingdom.

This book is one of a series. It discusses some of the wacky ways that Mormons avoid answering tough questions about their doctrine, beliefs, and history which were written by their own historians, prophets, and leaders that is completely baloney. It exposes what they really believe and the massive hypocrisy found in almost every Mormon, everywhere. You will find yourself laughing out loud more than once.

To protect their livestock, cattle farmers have graduated from using sticks, daggers, and clubs to using sophisticated, brutal weapons like double-barrel shotguns and AK-47s.

The year not only stands out because it is the end of a millennium and comes replete with some fancy new front digits in the form of "2000", but also has decades of baggage and propaganda that had filtered through to the public over the years. And at least one of the most infamous of doomsday scenarios that circled around the year 2000 was based on some fact.

The story of Catholic Emancipation begins with the Anti-Catholic Gordon Riots in 1780, fuelled by a reduction in Penal Laws against Catholics harking back to the 16th century. Fifty years later, the passing of the Emancipation Bill was hailed as a 'bloodless revolution'. Yet, had the Irish Catholics been a 'millstone', or were they the prime movers?

It Shouldn’t Be in the Church offers the listener an alternative approach to understanding the true value of what a church should look and feel like.

When most of us hear the word "Auschwitz" it immediately invokes black and white, grainy footage of living skeletons, gas chambers and inhuman brutality of a level never seen since. But the thing that most people do not realize is that before the town of Auschwitz was used as a death camp, it was one of the most posh and cosmopolitan towns in all of Austria. It was a prosperous Jewish enclave known rather fondly as "Little Jerusalem".

Imagine finding out that you had been brainwashed into believing you were helping people, but you were actually hurting them. For years, Nehemiah Flynt provided therapeutic foster care without realizing the harm he was helping the government inflict on innocent children and families.

Wissen war in früheren Zeiten ein Privileg von wenigen, vor allem einfache Leute hatten keinen Zugang dazu. Die Situation änderte sich grundlegend mit der Erfindung des Buchdrucks durch Gutenberg im 15. Jahrhundert. Bücher lassen sich in großen Stückzahlen vervielfältigen und unter die Leute bringen. Vor allem Luther, so Wolf, macht sich die Möglichkeiten der Verbreitung zunutze: Jeder Dritte hat eine gedruckte Lutherschrift gelesen. Die katholische Kirche kann die Flut von Schriften nicht eindämmen, aber sie möchte verhindern, dass unliebsame Bücher gelesen werden.

As Syria imploded in civil war in 2011, Kurdish volunteers in the north rose up to free their homeland from centuries of repression and create a progressive sanctuary of tolerance and democracy. To the medievalists of ISIS, this was an affront, so they amassed 10,000 men, heavy artillery, tanks, mortars and ranks of suicide bombers to crush the uprising. Against them stood 2,500 volunteer fighters armed with 40-year-old rifles. There was only one way for the Kurds to survive. They would have to kill the invaders one by one.

They said it would never happen in America, but the First Amendment was severely attacked in Nebraska from 1977 to 1984. Christian Conviction v. State Persecution chronicles not only the events but why they took place. This was not isolated to a single denomination or group. Among the churches attacked were Amish, Mennonite, Apostolic, Pentecostal, Baptist, and Church of Christ. Among the homeschool families, the list expands farther.

In a world marked by right-wing politics and discrimination against the LGBTQ+ community, I embarked on a quest for answers. Fueled by frustration and a desire for understanding, I turned to the power of artificial intelligence to engage in a conversation with Jesus.

La bruja habita dentro y fuera de nosotros, vagando en senderos olvidados, aguardando en territorios familiares y en la oscuridad de la habitación que es nuestra mente. Las brujas han habitado en las sombras de la noche mucho antes de que decidiéramos cazarlas, se han presentado ante la humanidad bajo múltiples máscaras, deformadas e instrumentalizadas por el poder. Pero entre todas ellas, hay una máscara que jamás desaparece, aquella que personifica nuestros miedos más primitivos, y que, al mismo tiempo, nos atrae.
