The Global Assault on Religious Freedom 

Christianity is under attack in the West, yet the statement sounds hyperbolic because our news media shuns the subject.

   In England this week, a British Army veteran named Adam Smith-Connor was convicted for praying silently on a public street. Police approached Smith-Connor and told him they were there to “inquire as to [his] activities.” “Well, I’m praying,” he explained in an exchange captured on video. 

   The officer followed up, “What is the nature of your prayer today?” “I’m praying for my son,” he responded.

   Smith-Connor was praying silently near an abortion facility, which the British police ruled violated censorship laws in the United Kingdom. He prayed with his back to the facility “to avoid any impression of approaching or engaging any women entering or leaving the facility,” his lawyers wrote.

     The violence has reached the point, the report says, that many traumatized Christian children sleep in trees to try to avoid being butchered during the night, when Fulani are most prone to attack.

Satanic Temple opens Virginia center for ‘religious abortion’ rituals  Abortion is, in many ways, a demonic inversion of the Gospel message: Not “My body for you,” but, “I destroy your body for me.” Abortion is the perfect Satanic sacrament: the brutal killing of a child created in God’s image; the hardening of the consciences of all involved.

Scientists Link Deadly Splanchnic Blood Clots to Covid 'Vaccines'  Scientists have uncovered evidence linking a once-rare form of deadly digestive blood clots to Covid mRNA “vaccines.”

   During a study led by Dr. Guneet Sidhu, a professor of medicine at the University of North Dakota, the researchers found that Covid injections cause splanchnic vein thrombosis (SVT).

   SVT is a life-threatening condition that occurs when blood clots form in the veins of the splanchnic circulation.
