STREET PREACHER The city may have pulled his permit, but a controversial Calgary street preacher says that won't stop him from spreading the word of God in a downtown park.
ART POWLOWSKI said he still plans to preach to the homeless this evening at a small green space near a homeless shelter - and he will defy a ban on using a loudspeaker (METRO, Weekend, April 27-29, 2007).

Moscow has rejected Washington's pleas that the shield is meant to defend Europe from a rogue missile attack by Iran or North Korea, claiming that Russia's nuclear arsenal is the target.
In the first indication that the United States was losing patience with Moscow's intransigence on the issue, Condoleezza Rice, the U.S. Secretary of State, yesterday described Russia's fears as "ludicrous."
"The Russians have thousands of warheads," she told a news conference in Oslo prior to a NATO meeting. "The idea that somehow you can stop the Russian strategic nuclear deterrent with a few interceptors just doesn't make sense."
Mr. Putin said he had decided to declare a moratorium on an updated version of the treaty because NATO powers had failed to ratify it. The United States and its NATO allies have said they will not ratify the treaty until Russia withdraws its troops from Moscow-backed breakaway republics in Georgia and Moldova - an argument the Kremlin dismisses as a pretext to allow Washington to boost its military presence in Eastern Europe.
It is unclear what Moscow would gain by withdrowing from the treaty beyond being freed to move additional troops into western Russia, or possibly into Belarus, which shares a border with the European Union (Adrian Blomfield, "Russia Suspends Arms Pact. Kremlin angered by U.S. plan for new missile-defence system in Poland, Czech Republic", NATIONAL POST, Friday, April 27, 2007).
Five schools in the Netherlands' 'Bible Belt' given permission to ban headscarves
'PRESERVE THEIR IDENTITY'
Five schools in the Dutch Protestant "Bible Belt" have become the first educational institutes in the Netherlands to be allowed to ban headscarves and other religious symbols. "These are specialized schools ... and they want to prserve their identity," a spokeswoman for the Commission for Equal Treatment said yesterday. Last year, the Dutch government banned wearing Muslim burkas and face veils in public, citing security concerns. "If someone wants to attend the school, they are asked to sign papers agreeing with the religion, identity and rules," the spokeswoman said. France bans Muslim headscarves and other religious symbols from state schools, and Britain is considering limits on veils.

Michael Chettleburgh w swojej najnowszej ksiazce pt. "Young Thugs: Inside the Dangerous World of Canadian Street Gangs", o gangach mlodziezowych w Kanadzie uwaza, ze tylko legalizacja narkotykow moze rozwiazac problem.
The pitch in question is outlined in a new book by Michael Chettleburgh called Young Thugs: Inside the Dangerous World of Canadian Street Gangs. His pitch: Starve gangs of their oxygen - drug money - he says, and legalize drugs...
Prohibitions don't work, he points out, citing the alcohol prohibition in the U.S. which led to an underground economy. Smoking kills five times the number of deaths caused by car accidents, suicides, drug abuse, murders and AIDS combined. And there are 30% more alcohol abusers than there are drug dependents.
Legalize marijuana first, and then categorize drugs according to their toxicity levels and drug capture ratio - how easily addictive the substance is - Chettleburgh said. Drug consumption will never go away. Regulating the industry would assure product quality, reducing the chances of overdose and poisoning. If users were forced to pay a sin tax, taxpayers would no longer have to foot the bill for their health costs, he argues. And most of all, legalizing drugs would strip kids of their primary business and ideally reduce gang activity (Vivian Song, "Is this the answer?Legalizing street drugs. Bold move could starve gangs, respected author argues", SATURDAY SUN, April 28, 2007).
Warto jednak postawic tutaj pytanie: czym roznil sie nazizm od komunizmu? W teorii kolorem. W praktyce niczym. Oj, przepraszam - w praktyce komunisci i nazisci roznili sie tym, ze masowe ludobojstwo uprawiali przez stosowanie skrajnych temperatur. Komunisci ze Stalinem na czele, zamrazali ludzi za pochodzenie spoleczne. Nazisci z Hitlerem na czele, palili ludzi za pochodzenie narodowe. Nazizm usmiercil 50 milionow ludzi, komunizm w samej tylko Rosji 62 miliony.
Jedni i drudzy stosowali rasizm jako ideologie do mobilizacji swoich poddanych. Nazisci rasizm nacjonalistyczny, komunisci rasizm spoleczny. Rasizm jest centralnym i decydujacym elementem ideologii komunistycznej i nazistowskiej (Wladyslaw Gauza, "Zrobic lustracje po europejsku", GONIEC, 27 IV - 3 V 2007).

Analizy fragmentow podrecznikow do nauki islamu, obowiazujacych w tym roku szkolnym, wskazuja, ze nadal szerza one nienawisc do chrzescijan, zydow, a takze muzulmanow nieuznajacych wahabizmu (surowa wersja islamu obowiazujaca w krolestwie Saudow - przyp. FORUM). Podreczniki przedstawiaja dualistyczna wizje swiata, dzielac ludzi na prawdziwych wyznawcow islamu (monoteistow) oraz niewierzacych (politeistow lub niewiernych). Indoktrynacja pojawia sie juz w podrecznikach dla pierwszoklasistow, nasila sie w odniesieniu do starszych uczniow, by osiagnac punkt kulminacyjny w podrecznikach dla kalsy 12. Te juz wprost nauczaja, ze do obowiazkow religijnych nalezy prowadzenie swietej wojny z niewiernymi, aby szerzyc wiare ("Homo islamicus", The Washington Post, FORUM 25, 19.06. - 25.06.2006).
