Response to ‘Christianity on trial’ (unedited)

January 24, 2023 by Guest Post

by Dee Gibney, Hamilton

This article would have you believe a radio Christian program is spreading fear and lies about shots, masks, witchcraft and Global warming. He loves to quote the Bible so here is a quote for him. In Psalms “The fear of the Lord is Wisdom” One fear being spread he claims is over Covid 19 shot. Here are some facts for him. Children’s hospital of Philadelphia wrote on long term affects of this shot, here is what they found. The shot has caused Thrombosis with thrombocytopenia syndrome, clotting of blood and low platelet count which occur in vessels in organs and legs. Guillain Barre syndrome, where the immune system attacks the nervous system. Myocarditis inflamation of the heart and postural orthostaic tachycardia syndrome. Also spontaneous abortion has occurred following the shot. I would say this is important information to know!

He mentioned the mask, here are facts found about wearing one. This from American Institute of Economic research. They found breathing in it causes toxic mold, fungi, and bacteria that causes a threat to the immune system by weakening it. Another is a serious concern of breathing synthetic fibers and asbestos that can cause early pulmonary toxicity. 

Gee, another important fact!!

He writes about witchcraft and does not seem to believe it is on the rise. To inform him it is on the rise. Disney released a movie called the Owl House geared for kids and explicitly introduces them to witchcraft. Media reports witches putting hexes on Trump and super bowl Tom Brady and his wife doing pre-game witchcraft rituals.

Millenials are turning to witchcraft, pagan religions, astrology and tarot cards. Wiccan religion studies show there are 1.5 witches across the U.S. Trinity College study showed over 350,000 wiccans in 1990. Witchcraft has more followers than 1.4 mainline members of the Presbyterian church.

Climate change is real he believes. Newsweek published an article saying global warming has no scientific basis. It points out that if global warming was true, CO2 levels and warming would have a positive impact on food and reduced need for fossil fuels. The article notes that solutions would have severe consequences for disadvantaged groups.  Scientist show that CO2 has not caused temperature and sea levels to rise beyond historical rates, and no real CO2 concentrations across time.  They say there is no climate crisis and no treat on the horizon. In short climate change scientist say there is no global warming.

This person goes on to say and quotes the Bible on do not be anxious and do not fear.  Just to inform him  this refers to our every day troubles we all face as humans. Being anxious and being knowledgeable about what is happening politically or nature wise is not the same thing.

Informing people of dangers is not hating people like this person claims. Christians are taught to be knowledgeable and also to love their neighbor. This is not hate if you are informing people of potential dangers in our society. If you don’t like the program don’t listen to it.

As far as the 6th of January goes, he has facts wrong. I don’t know where he got his figures from, but I only found that 1 person was shot by police, 2 died of natural causes, 1 fell and 1 died of a stroke. The 3 officers who died the first died of a stroke and 2 others later killed themselves.

Stop trying to find stupid reasons to hate Christians, they are kind loving people and take the initiative to find the truth to inform people of what they have found and not believe the lies the far left media has stuffed down everyone’s throats.

    Does the “American Institute of Economic Research” sound like an organization you would look to for medical advice?

    When you search the internet specifically looking for mis-information, you’ll have no problem finding it. Look at the source, then google if they’re reliable and whether not the claim has been debunked.

      I was thinking the same thing. Actually I’m surprised that the paper even published such obvious conspiracy bs. You know that someone else is going to say ” I read this thing in the Star about vaccines and it said….”

            It was. You gotta admit that your response is exactly like one that a Trumper would post. It was impossible to discern satire from reality. 🙂

    This is a candidate for the most ridiculous LTE of the year for sure.

    No, not a cult at all. 🙂
