White Youth Pastor Gets Only 3 Years For Sexually Abusing Under Age Girl???

Jordan Baird was sentenced to a punk ass three years, plus probation, after admitting guilt to two counts of indecent acts with a child by a custodian. Baird, during the sentencing hearing, said he takes full responsibility for his crimes. He apologized to the victim, her family, his own family and his wife. “This was my lie. These were my mistakes,” said Baird. “I brought shame on my family and shame on my friendships.” “Complete responsibility” is overstating it given his light sentence. On the bright side, the victim says the incident made her lose her faith! Like we see so often, yet another religious leader uses his trust to ruin a young girls life. To make matters worse, she wasn’t the only young woman Baird targeted from the church. Around 2014, there were other underage girls the he pursued, two of whom spoke at the sentencing hearing.

Book of the Day "The God Argument: The Case against Religion and for Humanism"

What are the arguments for and against religion and religious belief--all of them--right across the range of reasons and motives that people have for being religious, and do they stand up to scrutiny? Can there be a clear, full statement of these arguments that once and for all will show what is at stake in this debate? Equally important: what is the alternative to religion as a view of the world and a foundation for morality? Is there a worldview and a code of life for thoughtful people--those who wish to live with intellectual integrity, based on reason, evidence, and a desire to do and be good--that does not interfere with people's right to their own beliefs and freedom of expression? In The Case Against Religion , Anthony Grayling offers a definitive examination of these questions, and an in-depth exploration of the humanist outlook that recommends itself as the ethics of the genuinely reflective person.

Wannabe Terrorist Sets Self on Fire Attempting to Burn Synagogue

A white supremacist who tried to burn down a synagogue got a face full of flames as he fled the scene. Tristan Morgan was recorded on CCTV splashing fuel through a window before taking the full blast of the explosion in his face. He then calmly walked away from the scene of the anti-semitic attack, patting his singed head, and driving off in a van. The footage was played at the Old Bailey in London where Morgan was given an indefinite hospital order. The incident took place more than a year ago, but the footage was made public during his recent trial. He pleaded guilty to arson and charges relating to terrorism. If he is ever released Morgan will be subject of long-term monitoring by the police and partners. The court was told the far-right extremist with “deep-rooted anti-Semitic beliefs” laughed after he set fire to a historic synagogue. He encouraged terrorism by publishing a song entitled White Man to live-streaming website Soundcloud and having a copy of the Wh...

Should this woman get charged with manslaughter for allegedly starting a fight that lead to the death of her unborn child???

Book of the Day "The God Virus: How Religion Infects Our Lives and Culture"

What makes religion so powerful? How does it weave its way into our political system? Why do people believe and follow obvious religious charlatans? What makes people profess deep faith even as they act in ways that betray that faith? What makes people blind to the irrationalities of their religion yet they clearly see those of others? If these questions interest you, this book will give you the tools to understand religion and its power in you, your family and your culture. For thousands of years, religion has woven its way through societies and people as if it were part and parcel to that society or person. In large measure it was left unexplained and unchallenged, it simply existed. Those who attempted to challenge and expose religion were often persecuted, excommunicated, shunned, or even executed. It could be fatal to explain that which the church, priest, or imam said was unexplainable. Before the germ, viral, and parasite theory of disea...

How Pastors Profit From Human Trafficking

Evangelical pastors secretly play a huge role in human trafficking. And they also make a hefty profit from it, according to a report from the Guardian. Don't mistake these reports as "pastors assist asylum seekers"... No, these pastors are flat-out sneaking people past the U.S. border from places like Guatemala, offering little more than prayers for a safe journey, and making a tidy profit for every body they get through! Its another religious con game; the pastors’ presence is what helps justify the trip and taking the risks for some people. It turns out that Guatemala is one of the largest sources of migrants to the US, and churches and clergymen also play a role in the business of people-smuggling in that country as well. As trusted individuals in a deeply religious society, these pastors and priests offer comfort and a prayer for the safety of those undertaking the dangerous trip... Then they take a cut of t...

Book of the Day "The Illuminati's Greatest Hits: Deception, Conspiracies, Murders, and Assassinations by the World's Most Powerful Secret Society"

Born through Adam Weishaupt, in 1776, the secret society group known as the Illuminati have been wreaking havoc on the world ever since. They have fomented wars and have manipulated events from behind the shadows to diabolically implement their agenda of a new world order. People have heard of the Illuminati through popular culture, but most brush off their existence as nothing more than some "conspiracy theory" hatched by conspiracy theorists without doing any valid research that would perhaps discount their existence. Shame on them, because if they did the necessary research they would conclude that the Illuminati do actually exist in the annals of history. However, they supposedly disbanded which of course is not the case. Nonetheless, this powerful secret society is headed by 13 distinct bloodlines consisting of prominent families that you've probably heard of, like the Rothschilds and the Rockefellers. Behind the scenes the Illuminati are planning and im...

Book Of the Day "God Is Not Great"

Christopher Hitchens makes the ultimate case against religion. With a close reading of the major religious texts, he documents the ways in which religion is a man-made wish, a cause of dangerous sexual repression, and a distortion of our origins in the cosmos. With eloquent clarity, Hitchens frames the argument for a more secular life based on science and reason, in which hell is replaced by the Hubble Telescope's view of the universe, and Moses and the burning bush give way to the beauty of the double helix.

Another Baptist Pastor Charged with Child Molestation

Stephen Bratton, the same 43-year-old Southern Baptist pastor in Cypress Station, Texas that advocated for criminalizing abortion, resigned after being charged with repeatedly sexually assaulting a teenage relative over several years. "Stephen Bratton, who resigned from Grace Family Baptist Church in Cypress Station, was charged Friday with continuous sexual abuse of a child," Senior Deputy Thomas Gilliland said Saturday. The pastor is accused of inappropriate touching that escalated to “sexual intercourse multiple times a day or several times a week” from 2013 to 2015, Gilliland said. Bratton has been a radical anti-abortion advocate, making national news recently for supporting a failed bill that would have made it possible to criminally charge women who terminate their pregnancies. Pastor Bratton didn’t merely want to arrest women for abortion, he wants to make abortion a capital felony that could even carry the death ...

Killer Released From Prison Early!!! Help the Victim's Family by Signing This Petition!!!

One of my subscribers sent this to me and I have signed the petition. Please help this family by signing the petition or by sharing on social media. Thanks!!! On April 23, 1994, New Orleans Police Officer Weldon Williams and his younger brother George Gilliam brutally murdered my brother, Mitchell Ceasar . Officer Williams and Gilliam lead Mitch into a field at gun point and shot him multiple times, killing him. Mitch was in the wrong place at the wrong time with the wrong person. I personally sat through not one, not two but three trials listening to details of Mitch’s last moments. I learned that his last sound was a scream before he was gunned down. I saw pictures of Mitch lying in that grassy field, lifeless and riddled with bullets. February 5, 2013 marked the beginning of a series of events which resulted in my brother’s murderer’s release from prison after being sentenced to life without probation, parole or suspension of se...
