Mark's Views, Perhaps — from behind my eyeballs
Late last night, the Board of Directors for Christian Aid Ministries (CAM) released a statement about CAM’s handling of the Jeriah Mast sexual abuse case in Haiti. This statement strikes me as far, far better than the first statement (which may not have been from the Board of Directors itself).
In their statement they respond to these questions:Read it all
I don’t know.
I do know this whole thing just makes me sick. It is so evil…and essentially done in the name of Christ.
I know what I’ve read online about Jeriah Mast being a sexual predator and sexual abuser of little boys in Haiti and in the United States.
I know that Jeriah served in Haiti under Christian Aid Ministries (CAM) for many years.
I know that CAM is being accused of a cover-up in some quarters.
I do not personally know the principals involved nor do I know the gal who is blogging extensively about the matter.
I do know that I’m very unsatisfied with and troubled by CAM’s June 11 statement on their website. I hope they get on the ball and offer something more transparent and more point-blank. How come they don’t mention Jeriah Mast by name, for instance? Read it all
So Canada’s highest court has just ruled that some sex acts between humans and animals are legal.
Despite all the acceleration of the normalization of perversion in the last few years, this still has to at least kinda shock the sensibilities.
Some folks (including the dissenting judge) expressing dismay at and condemnation of the 7-1 ruling seem to be exercised primarily by the animal abuse angle.
The human morality slippery slope is a bigger issue to me. The pursuit of certain “rights” is definitely leading to what’s morally wrong being rebranded as right. Even a leftist should find that repugnant.
Well, here are two excerpts from the story: Read it all
Because “a woman’s faith and modern society collided,” Ken Miller reported to federal prison in Virginia on March 22, 2016.
In this “war against Satan’s tyranny,” Ken holds to the view that the proper weapons must be employed by the faithful disciple of Jesus. In the excerpt below, notice how he identifies such weaponry.
You know at least one president which did not do this:
President…signed into law a measure that stigmatizes gay people and bans giving children any information about homosexuality.
The ban on “propaganda of nontraditional sexual relations” is part of an effort to promote traditional…values…
But which president did do that? (Today, apparently.)

In determining the meaning of any Act of Congress, or of any ruling, regulation, or interpretation of the various administrative bureaus and agencies of the United States, the word ‘marriage’ means only a legal union between one man and one woman as husband and wife, and the word ‘spouse’ refers only to a person of the opposite sex who is a husband or a wife.
That’s what the Defense of Marriage Act, Section 3 claimed for almost 17 years.
And what God declared from eternity.
And what the Supreme Court of the United States today said isn’t so.
Well, what five members of that court said.
Actually, just one that mattered (if you want to look at it that way). If one of those five had voted differently, the outcome would have been different.
I wonder how those five propose to define marriage.
On what basis would they say these aren’t valid marriages:
And how is denying such arrangements not a manifestation of bigotry, hate, phobia, and so forth?
Woe to those who call evil good and good evil — God says so.
Well, here’s another book for your consideration: Reforming Marriage
