Southern Baptist Convention: More than 200 ministers, deacons and others have been found guilty of sex abuse, report says
A total of about 380 Southern Baptist leaders and volunteers have faced allegations of sexual misconduct, a newspaper investigation found.
For more than a decade, a Baptist preacher in Oklahoma has been what he calls "a lone voice in the wilderness."
Pastor Wade Burleson called on the Southern Baptist Convention to protect its flock by creating a database that would track church workers accused of sexual abuse.
Such a list was published Monday, but not by the Baptists.
The Houston Chronicle and San Antonio Express-News in an expansive investigation named 220 pastors, ministers, deacons, volunteers, Sunday school teachers and others who were found guilty of sexually abusing churchgoers over 20 years.

Physician Says There Isn’t Single Scenario Where Late-Term Abortion Protects Mother’s Health
Doctor and Kansas Rep. Roger W. Marshall wrote an op-ed saying there aren’t any reasons why a late-term abortion is necessary to protect a woman’s health.
“To this day, I can’t think of a single scenario where I thought a late-term abortion would help to improve a woman’s mental health,” Marshall wrote in a Monday op-ed published by Fox News. “Contrary to the pro-abortion movement, regardless of the mother’s underlying medical health, I never saw the scenario where we had to choose between a mom’s life and a baby,” Marshall wrote.
Marshall is an obstetrician who has delivered more than 5,000 babies in Western Kansas over 25 years. He also served as an OB-GYN at a state mental health hospital and prison.

House Democrats Vote to Criminalize Storage of Legal Firearms
Published: 12 February 2019
Santa Fe – In a continuing effort to penalize law-abiding gun owners, House Democrats voted to move forward with House Bill 130 (HB 130) on Tuesday. HB 130 would penalize gun owners if they store their firearms in a manner which someone would “reasonably” know a minor would have access. The problem with HB 130 is the term “reasonably” is never defined, which leaves it open to interpretation if legal gun owners will face criminal charges.
“We keep hearing the words ‘common’ and ’sense’ about these gun bills but all I see are bills that are devoid of both,” said Rep. Candy Ezzell (R-Roswell.) “New Mexicans need to know what special interests are trying to do to their 2nd amendment rights.”
“This bill criminalizes parents, both rural and urban, for defending their homes the way they see fit,” said Rep. Gregg Schmedes (R-Tijeras).
The bill passed out of the House Consumer and Public Affairs Committee (HCPAC) with all House Democrats voting in favor. House CPAC is the same committee which has passed numerous anit-2nd amendment bills during the legislative session.

No Medical Evidence Finds Abortion Can Save a Mother’s Life
Abortion Is Never a Lifesaving Procedure
11/4/16
David C. Reardon
In the most recent presidential debate, Hillary Clinton claimed late-term abortions are sometimes necessary to save women’s lives. That’s great rhetoric, but it is not supported by even a single medical study.

Spanish PM to announce snap election soon after budget vote -sources
MADRID (Reuters) – Spain’s minority Socialist government plans to announce an early general election after its expected defeat in a budget vote on Wednesday following its refusal to negotiate Catalan self-determination, political sources said on Tuesday.

Two small Catalan pro-independence parties, on whose votes the government has been relying to pass legislation, have so far maintained their blanket rejection of the budget.
They said they were open to negotiate until the budget vote if the government promised them a dialogue on the right to self-determination, but that right is prohibited by the Spanish constitution.

Court allows import of life-size sex dolls
A Seoul appellate court has allowed the import of life-size sex dolls into Korea, saying it does not violate the customs law that prohibits "morally degrading" items.
The decision is expected to affect the sex doll industry here because it opens the door to overseas manufacturers.
The Seoul High Court overturned a lower court's ruling on Monday, and ordered Incheon Main Customs to permit a Korean company to import silicone sex dolls.
After Customs confiscated the dolls in 2017, the company brought the issue to the court.
The lower court ruled in favor of Customs, saying the dolls would "degrade the dignity of human beings."
But the appellate court said the dolls ― although they seemed vulgar― would not violate the law that bans the import of morally degrading products.

Australia to reopen notorious migrant detention center after govt. fails to block medevac bill
The Australian government will be reopening the Christmas Island detention center, likened to a maximum security prison, after opposition streamlined a bill to allow migrant detainees to seek medical help on the mainland.
Australia's conservative Prime Minister Scott Morrison announced on Tuesday that the detention facility in the Australian external territory in the Indian Ocean his government worked hard to shut down would be reopened to accommodate potential new arrivals and detainees, who might be transferred from the Nauru and Manus Island offshore migrant detention camps.
The setback in the conservative government's effort to scale down the controversial migrant detention program is a response to a new amendment to a medical evacuations bill, championed by the Labor party, which enlisted the support of the Greens and crossbench MPs.

Dr. Tim Ball: Seven Ways To Spot Climate Change Propaganda
Climate change propaganda is designed by the United Nations for one thing only: to stampede the world into Sustainable Development and its green agenda. It masquerades as benevolence saving the world, but is harmful to the world and anti-human. ⁃ TN Editor
This is an update of an earlier effort to counter the propaganda war that is going on to promote the falsehoods about the environment and climate. An update is required because skills improved with practice and as they lose the war desperation demands greater deceptions. Technocrats are at the center of this development.
They achieve control in various ways, so it is invaluable to read the signs and avoid the deception. The most reliable tool is simple skepticism. Ironically, fake news is now so pervasive that it is much easier to assume everything is fake. The global warming deception is the oldest deeply entrenched fake news story because it is the product of government and deep state bureaucrats. Maurice Strong established the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) through the World Meteorological Organization (WMO). This is a UN agency run by bureaucrats in Geneva but made up of bureaucrats from the national weather offices of every UN member nation. They work every day using your tax dollars to deceive you.
