Youth in the United Kingdom are among the least religious in post-Christian Europe, with some 70 percent self-identifying as having “no religion,” according to a new report. 03/23/18 Religion in Europe is “moribund,” said Stephen Bullivant, the author of a report titled Europe’s Young Adults and Religion. “With some notable exceptions, young adults increasingly are not identifying with or practising religion,” said Bullivant, a professor of theology and the sociology of religion at St Mary’s University in London.

03/23/18 It took the State of Florida all of one week after a Republican house, senate, and governor passed one of the most draconian gun control bills in U.S. history to begin implementing the so-called red flag portion of the law that allows law enforcement officers to confiscate the firearms of any individual “suspected” of suffering from mental illness. The 56-year-old man was given no trial and no due process. The gentleman had committed no crime, no act of violence—not even the threat of violence. The State said the man MIGHT be crazy, so they confiscated his guns. Of

“Things just keep getting more Orwellian as time goes on.” Admin 03/21/18 It seems like not a day goes by, where law enforcement isn’t inventing new ways to spy on Americans. According to a recent article in the Daily Progress, the University of Virginia Police Department is using a company called Social Sentinel (SS) to spy on college students and faculty Tweets etc. “Legal experts say they’re concerned about privacy and creating a surveillance state, but police say the program is just one more tool in the race to stay on top of online threats and messages.” To mask the real purpose behind spying

03/20/18 Update: Apparently the police received a lot of online flak about this “definition” and took it off their website. 03/19/18 From the UK Met Police website, here is the latest official attempt to censor speech. It’s actually more than that. Read carefully while pointing a fan at the screen to disperse the noxious fumes: “If someone does something that isn’t a criminal offence but the victim, or anyone else, believes it was motivated by prejudice or hate, we would class this as a ‘hate incident’. Though what the perpetrator has done may not be against the law, their

Usually, Africa only breaks through to the West when Western targets are attacked by terrorists. First, two US Black Hawk helicopters were shot down in Somalia in 1993. Then Al Qaeda attacked US embassies in Kenya and Tanzania in 1998. Then, only a few days ago, Islamic State published a video purporting to show an ambush in Niger in which four US soldiers were killed last October. The West was silent. The West does not seem to care about the ongoing Islamic terrorist genocide on Africa’s biggest Christian population in Nigeria. A few days ago, the Coliseum in Rome

After the murders of much of the staff at the French satirical magazine Charlie Hebdo in Paris on January 7, 2015, the hostage-taking and slaughter at a kosher supermarket two days later confirmed what was already obvious: France was a target of Islamic terrorism. A huge demonstration, organized in Paris on January 11, brought together a million and a half people, with politicians from around the world in attendance. For a brief moment, France seemed to be the country where the multitudes were ready to stand up for freedom of speech, and the government was ready to fight for

“Hundreds” of crosses at war monuments and memorials across the nation now are at risk because a panel from the 4th U.S. Court of Appeals condemned the Bladensburg World War I Veterans Memorial to destruction, and the full court refused to reconsider, says one of the judges. The warning came from Circuit Judge Paul Niemeyer, a part of the 4th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals. The majority there refused to have the entire court weigh in on the Bladensburg case, and that would leave it condemned to destruction because of its presence on public property. But the legal

Readers have inquired about my silence about the Florida shooting on Valentine’s Day. The answer is that school shootings are not my expertise. Moreover, a country, such as the US, which no longer has an independent TV and print national media, is unable to find out and is dependent on the story told by authorities. Although it is probably impossible to find out what happened, independent Internet media makes it possible for a person willing to invest the time and effort, to arrive at a conclusion on their own. Here are some of the things to think about. A

02/21/18 Everywhere you turn politicians and corporations are trying to convince the public we need to convert our cities into ‘smart cities’. Last week AnyVision and Nvidia announced that they are working together to put facial recognition cameras in cities across the globe. “Nvidia has partnered with AI developer AnyVision to create facial recognition technology for ‘smart cities’ around the world. The two companies will work to install automatic facial recognition into CCTV (closed-circuit television) surveillance cameras”. AnyVision is an Israel-based company that profits from spying on everyone. Five months ago, I warned everyone that Nvidia also wants to turn police vehicles into 360 degree

02/16/18 The California government is being accused of continuing to “persecute” a baker who refused to make a same-sex wedding cake, despite a recent court victory granting her the First Amendment right to do so. As Faithwire previously reported, a California judge ruled last month in favor of Cathy Miller, owner of Tastries Bakery, finding that the state cannot force her to act against her sincerely held beliefs. The Christian baker has been under fire over her refusal last August to make a gay wedding cake. Read More: California Continues to Persecute Christian Baker Despite Big Win

The unfolding of one of the most flagrant and illegal abuses of power in my lifetime these past weeks has been a real blessing. Release of the FISA related memo last week, I believe, is just the tip of the iceberg. The shadow government (some prefer Deep State) has controlled politics in this country longer than I’ve been alive. (The House That Evil Built) Their evil machinations have all but destroyed a true constitutional republic. However, they would not have succeeded without the help of either compromised elected officials, cabinet heads, agency top dogs and members of the Outlaw

Dear Readers: This is one of the most important articles I have written, along with this one: https://www.paulcraigroberts.org/2018/02/02/nuclear-posture-review/. If the Russiagate conspiracy against Trump and American democracy goes unpunished, accountable government in the United States will cease to exist. US security agencies have long been involved in coups against foreign governments. Now they are involved in one against America. There is great danger that Republicans are so worshipful of “national security” and so determined to protect the reputation of the US government that they will give a pass to the high officials who participated in a conspiracy against the United

01/31/18 Jim Caviezel, the actor who memorably portrayed Jesus in director Mel Gibson’s 2004 blockbuster The Passion of the Christ, says that Gibson is planning a sequel that will be “the biggest film in history. It’s that good.” The Passion is already one the biggest films in history. Fourteen years on it still holds the domestic box office record for an R-rated movie ($371 million). From Gethsemane to Golgotha, The Passion told the story of the last 12 hours of Christ’s life — his arrest, trials, torture, and crucifixion.

Thursday, January 25, 2018 | Charlie Butts (OneNewsNow.com) Canada’s prime minister is getting a tongue-lashing from an unexpected source over what has been described as a “dictatorial” policy. The Canadian government has a summer jobs program it supports via grants to various businesses, organizations, and churches to give young people some practical training and experience in the job market.

Here is a headline in Newsweek from Jan. 12: “Trump Will Start the End of the World, Claim Evangelicals Who Support Him.” Did any evangelicals actually say that in the article? No. Is there any truth to the claim? No. In fact, I think I can better speak for evangelicals than the headline writers and fake-news purveyors at Newsweek. I’ve been one for over 40 years. I founded and run the largest Christian website in the world. I write books on the subject – including many on prophecy. Evangelical Christians do not overwhelmingly support President Donald

It’s been said that many, if not most Millennials are pro-life. But a respected Christian researcher says that’s not the case – that in fact, “we are tying our hope to a myth.” Researcher and cultural analyst George Barna of American Culture & Faith Institute (ACFI) says his group has found a pattern indicating the pro-abortion stance is more common among those under the age of 30. “We find that they’re less likely to believe that all human life is sacred, less likely to believe that the U.S. Constitution would recognize every human life as having value, [and]

“A concerning look into the ever growing use of AI for monitoring us all.” Admin Artificial intelligence (AI) is in the headlines every week now from driverless cars to high-frequency stock trading algorithms that outperform any human. Computers now beat the best human players at chess and almost any other game and have even begun to interpret emotions from facial expressions and create works of art. AI has also surprised human doctors at diagnosing difficult-to-spot eye conditions on scans. Yet as much as these advances may make our lives easier, it is this last area, visual recognition, that corporations and

British Christian publications have been wondering if we are witnessing the “extinction of Christianity in Egypt“, where the Christian faithful have suffered persecution and terror attacks at the hands of Islamic fundamentalists. Christian leaders also seem to be wondering if Christianity will be “extinct within a generation” in the UK, where religious people enjoy total freedom of worship and faith. Last year, the Church of England began to formulate a religious revolution. Its canonical laws require that British churches hold their functions every Sunday. The dramatic crisis of Christianity in the UK, however, is pushing the Anglican church to
