Hmmm. There seems to be more and more cases of hostility to Christianity that the New Testament warns us about in it's later chapters.

Like Billy Graham has said - 'Go though life with a Bible in one hand and a Newspaper in the other.' It's time to start paying attention.

Time for State Department to put Australia on the "Do not travel" list. The place could be dangerous for Americans. Like it's possible we might say something negative about Islamofascist terrorists.

One does wonder, though, if the "fix was in" with that judge.

Submission to the Equal Opportunities Commission - Response to complaints from the Islamic Council. (pdf)

The Equal Opportunities Commission (of Victoria.)Blech!

Meanwhile in another State, (New South Wales) an attendee of the Lakemba Mosque is to stand trial for terrorist plot to blow up our power-grid...and is asking for bail.

One law for Christian pastors and another the totally opposite for the terrorist I gather.

Oh well, what else could one expect? Victoria has a State Governor of Lebanese descent...a liberal. A very sad day for Australia.

There is nothing intolerant or hateful in stating the truth. There is something intolerant and hateful about Islam, a religion that cannot handle criticism. Oh wait, maybe I shouldn't say anything, about Islam, or I might find myself with my throat slit and a note pinned to my chest.

"To argue that quoting a religious book makes one guilty of vilification would put 98 percent of religious discussions out of bounds."

And there you have the judge's agenda in a nutshell.

[Critical Bill]

"These groups now have been given a clear warning that they will not have an unfettered ability to promote hatred and hostility in the community."

You betcha!

[Sgt_Schultze]

Pastors Danny Nalliah and Daniel Scot were found to have breached a section of the state of Victoria's controversial hate law, which says a person must not incite "hatred against, serious contempt for or revulsion or severe ridicule of" another person or group on the basis of religious belief or activity.

It seems to me that the tribunal is guilty itself of violating this law. By denouncing the ministers' religious descriptions of islam, the tribunal has demonstrated an intolerance which is designed to bring about serious contempt for or revulsion or severe ridicule of" another person or group on the basis of religious belief...

I hope the ministers intend to pursue those charges.

"two Christian pastors had vilified Islam."

I think Islam is doing a fabulous job of vilifying itself.

[MinuteGal]

Including the USA, just about everywhere in the Western civilized countries the leftists, atheists, commies, socialists, terrorist sympathizers, etal, etal, have discovered they can change a country's culture through the dictates of the courts rather than by the will of the voting populace.

This is why I'll be watching President Bush's appointments to the Supreme Court with great interest. To me, the appointments will be the strongest of indications of which way this country will go in the future.

I would vilify Islam with a burst of six that would have the moderators ban me forever.

But, keep this in mind, the following was the sentiment of Omar M. Ahmad, the Chairman of the Board of the Council on American-Islamic Relations or CAIR, as told at an Islamic conference held in Freemont, California, in July of 1998.

“Islam isn't in America to be equal to any other faith but to become dominant. The Koran, the Muslim book of scripture, should be the highest authority in America, and Islam the only accepted religion on Earth.”

[JCBurton]

"Much of what the judge considered offensive was simply quotations from the Koran," he added. "To argue that quoting a religious book makes one guilty of vilification would put 98 percent of religious discussions out of bounds."

If the truth hurts then outlaw truth. Brilliant.

[broadsword]

Christian Pastors Found Guilty of Vilifying Islam.

Vilifying Islam?

How can one villify the most evil force on earth?

[68 grunt]

Telling the truth about that filthy cult is 'vilifying'?

[BibChr]

Talk is cheap, I know. But....

Honestly, if I were a single man of means, I think I'd be tempted to move to Australia, open a church, and preach on the implications of the claims of Christ for Islam and other world religions.

If the Libs plan on pulling this crap in this country, they'll find the first literal salvos of CWII raining upon them.

[AD from SpringBay]

But of course no muslim cleric will ever be convicted of villifying anything - as they urge their followers to kill.
