Permission becomes Compulsion (as at July 2015)
(watch this space…)
Oh dear…
$US135,000 fine + gag for not doing a cake
Hate Wins
“In a sign of the overt fascism and religious persecution to come in the wake of a Left emboldened by the Supreme Court’s recent gay marriage ruling, a judge in Oregon has issued a gag order denying two Christian bakery owners from speaking out against same sex marriage.
Christians and conservatives who never believed this could happen are part of the problem.
1995: We don’t want marriage, just civil unions.
2005: Our marriage won’t affect your rights.
2014: Bake me a cake, or else.
2015: Your opinion against same sex marriage is illegal.”
What began as “accept me” quickly became “affirm me” and then “celebrate me… or else”.

Yes, it always was going to be Permission becomes Compulsion
When Permission Becomes Compulsion 2012
- Homosexuality is legalised so then it is permitted in school curricula and then it is compulsory for children to attend – yes, fathers put in jail for refusing; Toronto school board forbidding parents to withdrawing their children from pro-homosexual education because it violates their human rights policy.
- Criminalising of those who disagree – either by speech, or refusing bed & breakfast, or adoption to same-sex couples, or fostering to Christian families, or hiring of campsites or church facilities.
- Homosexual “marriage” legalised/permitted leading to compulsion of registrants, then ministers, then use of church buildings.
- Abortion is legalised/permitted, then it becomes compulsory for doctors to participate or perform.
- Abortion being legal and permitted, it is then applied to eugenic selection “under the radar” and then becomes the norm (as for Down Syndrome) and the expectation (refusal brands you as being a “genetic outlaw”), and then compulsory – genetic cleansing of our society by genocide of a whole group of people.
- Killing people by euthanasia is legalised/permitted, then it becomes the expectation (the “duty to die”), then compulsory for sickness, disability or even age. Funding disallowed for palliative care but allowed for assisted suicide (as in Oregon).

For Christians on the road from addiction to recovery, it’s also important to find a rehabilitation center that offers faith-based services. They can uniquely support your sobriety and your journey of spiritual growth by offering:
Christ-centered sober living arrangements. Many addiction recovery specialists recommend sober living facilities for those seeking continued support post-rehab. These group homes provide a place where you can heal in a safe environment with a built-in support system. Christian-based rehab facilities also offer the added benefit of providing sober living facilities where residents share a similar devotion to leading a Christ-centered life.
Faith-based support. While many rehab facilities offer treatment services to overcome substance abuse and behavioral health issues, Christian-based addiction recovery centers are designed to also help you grow spiritually and develop a stronger relationship with Christ.
Seamless care. For individuals seeking support for drug or alcohol addiction, Christ-centered facilities can help reduce your risk of relapse by make the transition from rehab to the real-world easier. With Christian-based outpatient care, your recovery tools will be consistent with those you learned during residential treatment.
Christian mentors. Bridging the gap from addiction to recovery is an important period of your life. During this time, you learn how to gain more control over your thoughts, emotions and actions. By choosing Christian-based rehab, you can access mentors who share the same beliefs and they can serve as powerful role-models and coaches during your recovery to support your positive growth.
The healing power of Christ’s love. During each step of the way, the staff at Christian-based rehab facilities can help remind you of the healing power of Christ’s unconditional devotion, support and love. Click Here: http://bit.ly/christiansdrugrehab
