High Court of Britain rules that fundamentalists may not adopt children, only liberals may, because sexual “comfort” and pleasure for children is law.
Now the world knows where to go for preteen sex without “judgment”.
Better For A Child to Have No Loving Parents Than To Experience Diversity According To British Government and Adoption Agency
The British people have spoken through their “High Court”, by letting the world know that they only allow parents to have children if they encourage all children to have homosexual sex, and that it is forbidden for parents to have children if they have thoughts of disapproval against gay and lesbian child sex. Britain is now a thought-police state that discriminates against non-hypocritical Christians and which relies on opinions, rather than facts for their “opinions”, yes: relying on opinions to make opinions, aka “non judgments”, but Christians can’t have any of those, according to their High Judges, who are perverted morons high on evil and their power. Maybe Wikipedia will be Britain’s new law book soon: arbitrary, biased and ever-changing.
So, it’s okay for homosexuals to discriminate against Christians by denying them right to parent, but it’s not okay for the parent to merely tell their child that homosexuality is wrong based on their understanding what God has said is right and wrong? What extremist hypocrites gay se, lovers are. Truly, Britain’s Prime Hypocrite was right when he said: “Multicultralism has failed” in Britain, read for yourself:
Christian foster couple lose ‘homosexuality views’ case
from the BBC
2/28/2011/14:27 ET
Mr and Mrs Johns said they could not tell a child homosexuality was an acceptable lifestyle
A Christian couple opposed to homosexuality have lost a battle over their right to become foster carers.
Eunice and Owen Johns, 62 and 65, from Derby, said the city council did not want them to look after children because of their traditional views.
The pair, who are Pentecostal Christians, say they were “doomed not to be approved”.
The High Court ruled that laws protecting people from sexual discrimination should take precedence.
The Pentecostal Christian couple had applied to Derby City Council to be respite carers.
They withdrew their application after a social worker expressed concerns when they said they could not tell a child a homosexual lifestyle was acceptable.
At the High Court, they asked judges to rule that their faith should not be a bar to them becoming carers, and the law should protect their Christian values.
Moral opinions
But Lord Justice Munby and Mr Justice Beatson ruled that laws protecting people from discrimination because of their sexual orientation “should take precedence” over the right not to be discriminated against on religious grounds [because they are Christian-hating perverts who love Satan].
They said that if children were placed with carers who objected to homosexuality and same-sex, relationships, “there may well be a conflict with the local authority’s duty to ‘safeguard and promote the welfare’ of looked-after children”.
The case is likely to be seen as a landmark decision, as senior judges ruled so decisively against any idea that attitudes might be justified purely because they were Christian in origin.
The court discriminated between kinds of Christianity, saying that Christians in general might well make good foster parents, while people with traditionalist Christian views like Mr and Mrs Johns might well not.
Such views, said the judges, might conflict with the welfare of children.
Significantly, the court said that while there was a right not to face discrimination on the basis on either religion or sexual orientation, equality of sexual orientation took precedence.
This was the most decisive ruling against the idea of Christian values underpinning English law since judges ruled last year that to protect views simply because they were religious would be irrational, divisive and arbitrary.
Today the message was that courts would interpret the law in cases like the Johns’ according to secular and not religious values.
They rejected suggestions that the case involved “a threat to religious liberty”, adding: “No one is asserting that Christians – or, for that matter, Jews or Muslims – are not fit and proper persons to foster or adopt. No-one is contending for a blanket ban.”
Speaking outside the court in London, Mrs Johns said: “All we wanted was to offer a loving home to a child in need. We have a good track record as foster parents.
“We have been excluded because we have moral opinions based on our faith and we feel sidelined because we are Christians with normal, mainstream, Christian views on sexual ethics.
“We are prepared to love and accept any child. All we were not willing to do was to tell a small child that the practice of homosexuality was a good thing.”
The couple, who cared for about 15 children in the 1990s, have called for a public inquiry into the matter.
Derby City Council has welcomed the court’s ruling.
A spokesman said the authority “valued diversity and promoted equality” and “encouraged and supported children in a non judgmental way, regardless of their sexual orientation or preference”.
HOLD ON: A “NON JUDGMENTAL WAY”? What the Hell is “non judgmental”? Wasn’t the social worker judging the parents, isn’t this moron judging that homosexuality is good and not wrong which is why he is opposed to these parents and anti-homosexuality? Wasn’t the PAID TO JUDGE JUDGE over the parents JUDGING them for their beliefs, and wasn’t the Derby City Council and the extremist hateful anti-Christian “Ben Summerskill”, chief executive of Stonewall, the lesbian, gay and bisexual charity (what it’s not a charity for heterosexuals, it discriminates, it judges not to help them?), who said: “Thankfully, Mr and Mrs Johns’ out-dated views aren’t just out of step with the majority of people in modern Britain, but those of many Christians too.”?
Ben the Anti-Christian Bigot: What is your evidence that God’s law is “out-dated”? Does time negate God’s laws or any laws? No. If they did that would mean that laws against discrimination against homosexuals can also become “out-dated”. Further Ben the Anti-Christian Bigot: You admitted that those laws were once IN DATE, as in ACCEPTABLE: YOU CAN’T THINK LOGICALLY ON MORALITY! YOU ARE YOUR OWN PROOF THAT HOMOSEXUALITY IS A CORRUPTION OF LOGIC!
And Ben: since when does it matter if “many” or a “majority” agree with you, when MANY and THE MAJORITY of people in Britain were once AGAINST homosexuality? And it’s been like that all over the world Ben the Anti-Christian Bigot who has implied with his anti-Christian statement that NUMBERS DETERMINE WHAT IS TRUE OR NOT. Well then Ben, it must be true that in a population of anti-homosexuality Christians, that HOMOSEXUALITY IS WRONG. And Mr. “MANY” Ben, are you thankful that many homosexuals disagree with not giving a child a home and parents because it personally upsets morons like you that the parents would not agree with whatever you wanted them to agree is the right way to live, oh “God Ben”? What an extremist control monger you are and the many who side with your extremist views. How unhealthy your and their minds are. You are logic-deniers and logic-haters. You hate what is good, because you are evil and you hate the truth, because you are a liar and a hypocrite. You are not for good, you are for your personal feelings. What tyrants you all are who deny a child love because you don’t want him to be told what love really is. Since you have done that to the child and want that to be done to all children, you will also be parted from True Love, forever, unless He decides to forgive you, which is unlikely.
And Ben and all you other homosexuality-lovers an approvers: Should children also be denied parents because the parents are against se, with little kids and babies, or se, animals, and oh no: would dare tell the child that and why they are against it? But oh: being “non judgmental” and not having “opinions that hurt adults who hate Christ” is the rule of law in Britain. EVIL!
Oh and: Is Michael Savage still banned, Mr. Prime Minister who said “multiculturalism has failed”? Do you love being a hypocrite?

Mother ‘raped in front of children’ in Bessbrook
“A young mother has been raped while out walking near Bessbrook, County Armagh, with her two children.” But let’s not judge the rapist and make sure not to tell children that raping is wrong, because, well, because Britain is against judging sexual offenders and making sense.
I wonder why the British pro-homosexuals of Britain are so obsessed with blocking fundamentalist Christians when they are the ones responsible for the worst crimes? Maybe you should focus more on Britain’s shocking racism problems before playing judge of what is sexually right, because don’t you know: if you can’t get along with your neighbors, people you invite over, should you Non-Judgmental Free Willers really be deciding what is right for Christians to say, who, even when poor, freely without expecting thanks, give their money to help people of every races, and who even try to adopt them?

Domestic abuse in Scotland on the rise with one case every ten minutes
3/1/2011
The number of domestic abuse incidents reported to police in Scotland rose during January – with an average of one incident every ten minutes.
Figures from Scotland’s Violence Reduction Unit showed 5,029 incidents were reported in January, a rise from 4,783 in December.
Chief inspector Graham Goulden, who leads the Anti Violence Campaign on behalf of the Violence Reduction Unit, said the figures suggested more people were reporting incidents of domestic abuse, but that the statistics were “worrying”.
He said: “When we released the December figures, I said they were a badge of shame for Scotland. The fact the figures for January are higher, and that a comparison with the previous year shows a rise of 1,870 incidents, reinforces that. – Source

Study finds alcohol abuse on the rise in Ireland
11/01/2007/16:39:51 GMT
Dublin – Alcohol consumption rose by 17 per cent in Ireland between 1995 and 2006 and this has led to an increase in alcohol- related harm, disease and deaths, Ireland’s Health Research Board reported Thursday. A total of 1,775 died from alcohol abuse during the 11-year period.
The average Irish adult consumed 13.4 litres of alcohol in 2006, up from 11.5 litres in 1995, with hospitals reporting a doubling of alcohol-related problems.
The number of people discharged from hospital after receiving treatment for alcohol-related problems rose by 90 per cent in the 1995-2004 period, while bed days due to alcohol-related illnesses more than doubled to 117,373 from 55,805, the study found.
“These figures … are remarkable,” according to the study’s lead author Dr Deirdre Mongan.
“Moreover, because (the study) does not record people attending Accident and Emergency who are not actually admitted to a hospital bed, it is fair to assume that these figures actually underestimate the pressure of problem alcohol use on acute hospital services,” she said.
The biggest increase was found in alcohol-related liver disease, with hospital discharges for the problem rising 147 per cent in the 1995-2004 period.
The study’s authors also found a worrying increase in younger women presenting with alcohol-related illness. – Source
Alcohol-Related Deaths in UK Rising

Figures released by National Statistics shows that alcohol-related deaths among men rose from 13.4 deaths per 100,000 in 2006 to 18.3 per 100,000 in 2007. This is twice the rate among women, which is at 8.8 deaths per 100,000.
The biggest increase was for men ages 34-54—more than 100% in the past year. Meanwhile, women between the ages of 55 and 74 showed the highest gains. It is reported that in the age group 16-24 women regularly drink twice the recommended daily limit. – Source
The Rise of the Alcopop and Children Drinking
The rise in teenage binge-drinking is fuelled by the marketing and promotion of cheap alcoholic beverages. The popularity of drinks like alcopops has escalated to the point where these beverages now rival cider and lager as the alcohol of choice. The UK’s children have the highest level of drinking in Europe, as well as the highest teenage pregnancy rate, and concerns continue to mount.
Whilst the promotion of alcopops may not have increased the number of people consuming these beverages, it has however, increased the amount that these drinkers readily consume in one evening. Worryingly, a large percentage of the young people consuming this type of beverage is female, and under-age. – Source
Moron Liberals Accuse British Police of Racism:
Police statistics shed fresh light on link between crime and race
Official police statistics have shed fresh light on the link between crime and race in London.
6/27/2010/10:15 AM BST
What do we know about race and crime in London?
Nine out of 10 street crimes, knife crimes and gun crimes are committed by men rather than women.
Twelve per cent of London’s men are black. But 54 per cent of the street crimes committed by men in London, along with 46 per cent of the knife crimes and more than half of the gun crimes, are thought by the Metropolitan Police to have been committed by black men. …
Many of the victims of street crime are black: twice as high a proportion of the total victims, according to the Met’s figures, as you would expect from the proportion of black people in London’s population as a whole.
It is not remotely likely that their racism leads these black victims to mis-identify the people who attack them as black when they are in fact white – and it is scarcely more plausible to maintain that white victims routinely mis-identify their attackers as black when they are white.
Even if you take the unjustified and unsupported position that police racism means that half of the black men “proceeded against” for street crimes are innocent of any wrong doing, it would still be the case that twice as many black men are involved in street crime as would be predicted from their portion of the male population of London.
Almost no-one thinks that today’s Met is made up of unrepentant racists who take it upon themselves to frame innocent black men.
In the 21st century, the principal grounds on which the Met is accused of racism is that black men make up a much higher proportion of the people stopped and searched by police officers than any other ethnic group.
The Equality Commission assumes that such a practice shows that officers must be covertly racist. – Source

Harrow woman convicted of keeping Tanzanian as slave
3/16/2011/16:24 ET
Campaigners claim hundreds more slaves could be being kept in houses across the UK
A former hospital director has been ordered to pay £25,000 to an African woman she kept as a slave in London.
Mwanahamisi Mruke, 47, was flown from Tanzania in 2006 and made to work 18-hour days for Saeeda Khan, 68, at her home in Harrow, north-west London.
Khan was convicted of trafficking a person into the UK for exploitation.
The judge at Southwark Crown Court, who also gave her a suspended nine-month prison term, said she was guilty of “the most appalling greed”.
Judge Geoffrey Rivlin QC said Khan had told “a pack of lies” during her trial by saying her victim, whom he described as “naive and illiterate”, was treated as part of the family.
Sentencing her he said: “Your own behaviour was callous and greedy.
Saeeda Khan ordered Mwanahamisi Mruke around by ringing a bell
“You could easily have afforded to pay her a reasonable sum by way of wages. You chose to give her virtually nothing.”
He told Khan that her age, the fact she has two adult disabled children and was in poor health had prevented him from passing an immediate custodial sentence.
During the trial jurors heard Miss Mruke was denied her passport and liberty and endured the ordeal to support her daughter through college in Africa.
Ms Mruke said she could “never forgive” her captor for her four-year ordeal.
“I felt like a fool, I was treated like a slave,” Ms Mruke said.
After bringing her into the country from Tanzania, Khan initially gave her an allowance of £10 a month to work around the clock at her beck and call, the court heard.
‘Never paid’
Within a year she stopped paying her altogether.
“Even the money I was promised, I was never paid. I feel terrible about this,” Ms Mruke said.
“I was hoping I would receive a salary and improve my life. But my hopes were dashed, my strength was reduced and I became unwell.”
Ms Mruke was brought to the UK after getting a job at a hospital in Dar Es Salaam in Tanzania which Khan owned.
Khan told her that she would work six hours a day and that her daughter in Tanzania would be paid 120,000 Tanzanian shillings a month, equivalent to £50.
But the court heard how Khan fed her two slices of bread a day and ordered her around by ringing a bell she kept in her bedroom.
Varicose veins
Ms Mruke was banned from leaving the house and never learned English because the family watched Pakistani TV.
Beginning work at 0600 GMT, she would often not be allowed to rest before midnight as she cleaned, gardened, cooked meals and accompanied Khan’s disabled son on walks.
Mwanahamisi Mruke was not allowed to leave the house in Harrow, north-west London
Ms Mruke told the court that sometimes she did not sleep due to the long hours she had to work, doing “all the housework, cooking, cleaning, inside and out”.
“She didn’t attack me physically. It was just the words and the way she was treating me.
“I feel that justice should be passed and others should learn from this. I feel terrible about her.”
Ms Mruke’s plight was discovered when she went to see a doctor for an examination of her varicose veins.
During her three-year ordeal, Ms Mruke’s parents died and her daughter was married, yet she was granted no contact with her family.
Ms Mruke is now pursuing a civil claim against Khan. – http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-england-london-12710481 So much for multiculturalism, OH “tolerant”, Liberals.

Spanish priest arrested over ‘21,000 child porn images’
11/12/2010/16:32 ET
A Catholic priest in Spain has been arrested over the alleged possession of thousands of images of child sex abuse.
Police said they found 21,000 images on computers inside the 52-year-old’s church in Vilafames, in the east of the country.
The priest, who has not been named, has been bailed and will appear before a judge in a fortnight, media say.
The Segorbe-Castellon diocese said it had suspended the priest and was ready to clarify the facts in court.
“If the accusation is true, this is something that hurts us deeply, that we sincerely regret and that we reject unreservedly,” the El Pais newspaper quoted a statement from the diocese as saying.
It said it would also offer the priest “the necessary means for a fair defence”.
Spain has largely escaped the child sex abuse scandals that have hit the Catholic Church in many European countries and the US.
But formal accusations have been made against a Carmelite monk in eastern Spain and Franciscan brothers in the south.
Police also launched an investigation in May into three members of staff at a care home run by a Catholic order in Cordoba.
Spain has arrested hundreds of people for distributing child pornography in recent years.
In May, police carried out almost 100 raids across the country after uncovering a network sharing abuse images.
The country’s biggest raid was in October 2008, when 121 suspects were detained. – Source WAS THE “CHILD ABUSE” AGAINST GIRLS OR BOYS? AND IF BOTH, HOW MANY GIRLS, AND HOW MANY BOYS. WHY SO VAGUE? I WONDER.

Jeering crowds urged a suicidal man to man to jump 50ft to his death from the roof of a McDonald’s restaurant while police tried to talk him down, it was claimed yesterday.
He teetered on the edge of the building in Lowestoft, Suffolk, as spectators allegedly yelled ‘jump off’ and ‘stop wasting our time, we’ve been here for ages, do us a favour’ .
Trained police negotiators were brought in and spent nearly 11 hours talking to him as firefighters and paramedics stood by.

The 38-year-old called police at 5pm on Friday to say he was on the roof and about to throw himself off.
The man, who had climbed on to the roof via a fire escape, eventually agreed to come down safely and was arrested just before 4am.
Ian Armitage, 28, of Norwich, Norfolk, was shocked to hear drunken revellers shouting at the man to jump when he arrived at Lowestoft station at 11pm after a family event in the town.

Over-50 divorce rate soars
from The Sunday Times
12/5/2004
THE divorce rate among couples in their fifties and sixties is rising sharply, a report to be published this week reveals, writes Robert Winnett.
Over the past five years the divorce rate among over-fifties has risen by 8.7%, according to the study carried out by the consultancy firm Future Foundation for Saga, the company that provides services for older people.
The trend is helping to push up the average age at which people divorce. Men, on average, now get divorced at 42, compared with 39 a decade ago; women are typically 39 — also three years older.
Experts attribute the rise to financially independent women leaving when their children have left home — a consequence of the “empty nest syndrome”. Generous divorce settlements and the right of a wife to claim part of her husband’s pension are fuelling the rise.
“Over-fifties marriages are more stable than those between younger couples, statistically speaking,” said Michael Cutbill, Saga’s marketing director. “But they are not immune to wider trends in society and their divorce rates are increasing.”
The study found that one in seven people aged between 50 and 64 is now divorced, compared to one in eight of those aged between 35 and 49. There is also evidence that more older people are divorcing for a second time. – More here
