Are they coming for the Christians?


When The Nazis Came For The Communists,
I Remained Silent;
I Was Not A Communist.

When They Locked Up The Social Democrats,
I Remained Silent;
I Was Not A Social Democrat.

When They Came For The Trade Unionists,
I Did Not Speak Out;
I Was Not A Trade Unionist.

When They Came For The Jews,
I Remained Silent;
I Wasn't A Jew.

When They Came For Me,
There Was No One Left To Speak Out.

--Pastor Martin Niemoller

I am not a Christian by profession but was exposed to the teachings as a child and it has left an indelible impression on me in terms of values, a sense of Right vs Wrong.


When I tried to upload this onto my blog 'SUDDENLY' would not work and miraculously started working again on the next item.


As with when I try to post stuff onto my blog I can get round the interference by emailing it to myself and working from another computer.


When I tried typing this it came out like this: 

I Am Not A Christian – I could not get rid of the capital letters.


Everything returned to normal right after this.


It happened to me TWICE when trying to share material relating to NZ.


Am I to just put it down to “coincidence'?

But Not Churches

14 May, 2020

National MP Simon O'Connor Has Grilled The Health Minister Over The Government's Alert Level 2 Rules, Asking Why They Allow More People To Attend Strip Clubs Than Religious Gatherings.

O'Connor Put The Question To Dr David Clark In Parliament On Wednesday, Claiming The Government Failed To Consider New Zealanders' Rights To Freedom Of Religion When It Drafted The COVID-19 Public Health Response Bill.

"Is The Minister Aware That Strip Clubs Are Allowed To Open During Alert Level 2 But Churches Are Not, And If So, Why Is One Deemed So Much Safer Than The Other?" He Asked.

"Speaker, I Think The Member Will Understand - Both He And I Are People That Have Interacted With Churches, That I Know - That People Often Attend Services Of Worship For Fellowship Reasons," Dr Clark Responded.

"They Are There To Worship, But They Are Also There To Mix And Mingle With Others. The Purpose Of Having Rules Around Gatherings - Places People Gather To Intermingle - Is Precisely To Ensure We Are Keeping The Space For People, The Appropriate Social Distance, And Keeping The Virus Out."

Dr Clark Went On To Explain That Commercial Premises Such As Strip Clubs Had Their Own Requirements To Ensure People Did Not Intermingle.

"I Have No Desire To Keep People From Engaging In Their Religious Freedoms Any Longer Than Necessary, But I Also Know All New Zealanders Do Not Want To See Us Go Back To A Previous Level."

Earlier, O'Connor Asked Dr Clark How Much Consideration It Had Given To Faith Communities When It Drafted The COVID-19 Public Health Response Bill. He Later Wrote On Facebook That Their Back-And-Forth Had "Exposed" The Government, After He Revealed That It Didn't Mention Freedom Of Religion Once.

The Bill, Which Sets The Legal Framework For Enforcing Alert Level 2 Rules, Was Controversially Passed On Wednesday - Despite It Being Voted Against By National MPs Over Concerns It Gives Too Much Power To The Prime Minister.

Chicago Mayor Had Entire 
Neighborhood's Cars Towed 
To Stop A Church From 
Having Services!

20 May, 2020

Chicago Mayor Lori Lightfoot Had Entire Neighborhood's Cars Towed To Stop A Church From Having Services.

The Following Has Been TOTALLY Censored From The MSM, This Is The Only Place You Are Likely To See It.

The Mayor's goal: To tow every car of everyone who attended church services.

The outcome: No church service attendees got towed, everyone else in the entire neighborhood did; and it was a disaster involving countless cars that were legally parked when the signs went up.

Here's a summary of what happened: The mayor wanted to shut down a church. So on Saturday night, the mayor put up temporary no-parking signs in an entire neighborhood -- while normal residents of the neighborhood had their cars totally legally parked and were sleeping. In the morning, at 7 AM, she had had a mob of tow trucks ready to arrive to take EVERYONE's cars. 
They did.
All cars were gone in a very short time - including those of people who were legally parked in front of their homes.
Well, it turned out the church had a contract with a bank and other businesses to use their parking lots, so all the parishoners (for the morning service) parked their cars in these lots; so none got towed.

When the mayor heard what happened, and that only normal residents plus medical workers and others who normally parked on the streets in that area got towed, the mayor flipped out and for the next services had police cars block entrances to the parking lots the church used to force churchgoers to park on the street where they would be towed.
That was totally against the law, but the mayor - a well established communist - did it anyway. By that time, the church knew what was going on and warned everyone. RESULT: Zero church cars towed and one very pissed off neighborhood.
