This blogger is no friend of the United Nincompoops ...Religious freedom experts criticized this week a United Nations anti-blasphemy resolution for most likely hindering Christian evangelism and spreading Sharia law.Here we have a patently pro-Muslim effort to silence all non-Muslim religions. Imagine this resolution being used against a Muslim cleric who calls for the Pope's assassination or against a Muslim cartoonist whose favorite theme is Jewish blood.
“This anti-blasphemy resolution is mostly seen to be putting a ‘chilling effect’ on Christian work and outreach around the world, and that is a very troubling development for us,” said Carol Moeller, president/CEO of Open Doors, according to Mission Network News.
The non-binding U.N. resolution was first introduced by Pakistan and the Organization of the Islamic Conference at the U.N. Human Rights Council in 1999. It was amended to include religions other than Islam, and has since passed every year.
In 2005, Yemen proposed a similar resolution before the General Assembly and now the 192-nation Assembly is set to vote on it again.
All that's needed is one complaint to bring down the wrath of the NGOs; radical Islam's threats and intimidations are taken seriously enough to allow for this kind of preferential treatment.
Globalism is the name, one-world religion is the game. The prince of the power of the air is still active in this age.

SACRILEGE: It is finished means it is finished!
What do you get when you combine a German art museum, a German artist, and a green German frog? No, not a Kermitmeister!
Just as in the case with the Danish Muhammad cartoons debacle, this is a cause for the Christians of the world to unite and burn buildings ... heck, whole cities ... well at least a few old cars.An art museum in northern Italy said Thursday it will continue displaying a sculpture portraying a green frog nailed to a cross that has angered Pope Benedict XVI and local officials. [...]I could find no record of Pope Bennie actually described as angry ... apparently the author (Ariel David) of this piece needed an adjective real bad.Earlier in August the pope had written a letter to Franz Pahl, the president of the Trentino-Alto Adige region that includes Bolzano, denouncing the sculpture.And it is this that CW wants to highlight; ridicule of key or fundamental aspects of a person's orthodox faith is an extreme form of disrespect for that person and their faith.
It "has offended the religious feelings of many people who consider the cross a symbol of God's love and of our redemption," Pahl quoted the pope as writing in the letter.
Pahl himself has long opposed the display of "Zuerst die Fuesse" ("First the Feet" in German), even staging a hunger strike this summer and saying he would not seek re-election unless it was removed.
To this end I understand Islam's negative reaction to the Danish cartoons. However, I vehemently disagree with their expression of upset.Pahl said he was outraged by the museum's decision to keep the work, which he claims "pokes fun at the Catholic population and offends religion and the pope."Just guessing, but I could be easily convinced that the artist had some personal issues he was dealing with.
The 1990 wooden sculpture shows the crucified frog nailed through the feet and hands like Jesus Christ.The museum said the 3-foot (1-meter) -tall sculpture has nothing to do with religion, but is an ironic self-portrait of the artist and an expression of his angst.Nuff said!
"With humor and a tragicomic sense, which belongs to art since the times of Greek tragedy, Kippenberger ... faces his condition of suffering, which he expresses in many works, also, for example, in a video in which he crucifies himself," the museum said in a statement.
