Were they asking for all they experienced, as some Marcos apologists accuse? No, they did not. What they did do, however, was speak out against what they saw as cruelty and injustice.

Sexualizing Children for Profit? Why Albertans must say “NO”
“Every well thinking adult must be vigilant and must stand as a gatekeeper to our children’s development.”
For far too long we have allowed one perspective to dominate the discussion of gender identity and sexual orientation policies and legislation in our schools.
We continue to be told by our elected officials and through the media that these policies will save lives and protect our most vulnerable youth.
But please consider the bigger picture for a moment.
We know from watching many other places in the world that there is a strikingly methodical and predictable pattern: legislation and school policies implemented under the claims of “protection”, “inclusion”, “equal rights” and “anti-bullying”, and then the introduction of comprehensive sexuality education (CSE) resources into classrooms.
We have seen it play out in Ontario, across the United States, in Australia, across Europe and elsewhere.
Why such an aggressive campaign locally, nationally and internationally to legislate a removal of parental involvement in our schools, followed by imposing specific sexuality materials onto children, even…

Two reasons the Philippine National Election may go south
There have to be culprits in a reactive society where things aren’t going well, and the culprit can never be “me.”

ATA Editorial Response, Part 2
When ideologues have an agenda to push, they rely on “experts” whose own “credentials” may be highly suspect.
There are many reasons I take issue with the editorial written recently in the Alberta Teachers’ Association (ATA) News. Last week I wrote about some of my concerns and today I will address two more, one questioning Jonathan Teghtmeyer’s source of information and another focused on his claims regarding parental notification.
Mr. Teghtmeyer, the ATA News Editor-in-Chief, refers to the Calgary Sexual Health Centre’s website understandingtheguidelines.ca in order to dispel “myths”. This site is often referred to by those who promote Alberta Education’s Guidelines document.
However, is the Calgary Sexual Health Centre really the best authority to provide so-called “accurate” information on this topic?
Interestingly, Calgary Sexual Health Centre has significant links to Planned Parenthood, an organization in the United States which is:
- rapidly expanding their paid services to include providing hormone therapy for transgender people
- becoming increasingly allied with LGBTQ lobby groups.
- part of IPPF (International Planned Parenthood Federation)…

The First Quarter Storm: Setting the stage for Martial Law
Those who do not learn from the lessons of history…
The First Quarter Storm happened around 46 years ago and people hardly talk about it anymore. In fact, hardly anyone knows what it was.
What triggered it? Some say it was the massive cheating that happened in the 1969 Presidential elections that saw Ferdinand Marcos win handsomely against a rather pitiful showing by Sergio Osmeña, Jr. Those elections were widely believed to be the dirtiest in Philippine history—money was flowing freely to the electoral powers that be, and intimidation through violence became more commonplace.
If you think about it, dito na nga ang simula.
It was on January 26, 1970 when President Marcos gave his State of the Nation address after he won the 1969 elections. This event coincided with student demonstrations by the National Union of Students of the Philippines (NUSP) and University of the Philippines Student Council. These students, as fate would have it, were obviously quite passionate…

Meme Grinder #9 – Religion & Racism.
Interesting prediction.
Dear Planned Parenthood,
Opportunistic baby killers never miss a chance to deflect public attention from their utter depravity.
To you who go to shocking extremes to justify your lucrative abortion business, know this:
We deplore your violence against the most innocent among us.
We reject your attempts to dehumanize children for financial gain.
We fight the immoral and unconstitutional legislation that has lead to the deaths of 3000+ of our fellow
citizens daily for the past 40 years.
We demand an end to the barbaric practices which dismember, chemically poison, and snuff out the lives of inconvenient and unwanted people. If honestly describing your business is “incendiary” then the problem is not “rhetoric,” but your practices themselves.
We aren’t going anywhere. Those of us who truly believe that all people are created equal and who hate injustice, especially against the vulnerable, will never cease to cry out against your appalling practices until ever clinic door is closed.
As we stand against you, we will continue to promote…

The White Rose
“1942, Germany. Behind closed doors and in hidden facilities the piles of corpses grew, the streets were stained with blood. 2015, Canada. Is our condition so different? 300 tiny bodies ripped to pieces, 300 innocent children dismembered every single day before taking their first breath.”
26 Brutally Honest Atheist Quotes Worth A Read.
Well, as we all know, the Mona Lisa painted herself. 😉
Everyone likes honesty. So, I’ve collected 26 honest quotes from atheists that I have read. I think much of this will come to the surprise of many people (atheists, believers & others) who have experienced the foul tactics of Dawkins, and co. This list will certainly grow (New Atheists are never on shortage of foul, vitriolic statements), and I’ll include any new quotes in a second edition to this article.
Atheism is a faith based belief system:
Many of the New Atheists today like to purport that science and reason support their worldview. Ignore the fact that on an atheistic worldview there is no such thing as reason, and reason needed to do science in the first place. The atheist needs to posit that blind forces of nature from the finite beginning of a purposeless universe gave rise to their cognitive faculties and abilities. This is impossible, unless miracles are…
