European Court orders all EU countries to recognise same-sex marriages
The Court of Justice of the European Union has ordered all EU countries to recognise same-sex marriages, even if they are illegal under national law.
In a ruling last week the Court ordered Romania to grant residency to an American man who married a Romanian man in Belgium. This is despite Romania’s laws only recognising marriage between a man and a woman.
Eight EU member states support real marriage through their laws, including Poland, Hungary, Slovakia and Croatia. They now face being forced to recognise extra-territorial same-sex marriages in their immigration and welfare systems despite there being no democratic mandate to do so.
Across the world, same-sex marriage has been brought in through the back door without a popular mandate.
In the United Kingdom (aside from Northern Ireland) it was introduced by David Cameron’s government despite not being in his party’s election manifesto.
In America it was forced on all states by the judiciary of the Supreme Court.
And now across the European Union member states will be forced by this court judgment to recognise marriages in other states which would be illegal under their own national law.
There is cause to take heart in all of this: despite what we are often told, same-sex marriage is not universally accepted or approved. If it were, there would be no need for such underhand tactics the world over in making it legal.
Doctor dropped by DWP for asserting biological reality
A senior doctor who was set for a role as a disability assessor at the Department for Work and Pensions has been dropped due to his belief in the biological basis of gender.
Dr David Mackereth has worked as an NHS doctor for 26 years. He told his instructor that as a Christian his faith would not allow him to use a person’s preferred gender when writing reports if that gender was not their biological one. His contract was subsequently terminated.
It says something for the bullying and bigotry of the transgender zealots in government that a man with a quarter of a century of public service behind him can be treated in such a disgraceful way.

An inspiring 8-minute sermon on this and related topics (in French) at this morning's broadcast Mass from Avignon: https://www.franceculture.fr/emissions/la-messe/15e-dimanche-du-temps-ordinaire. (About 15 minutes in: there's no way of identifying the exact start time, but the music is rather more inspiring than much of what one hears in French churches these days so one could do worse than listen to the whole thing.)
ReplyDeleteSome good news - parents taking charge. Long may it continue.

Earlier this month a primary school in Croydon told parents that their children would be taking part in a ‘Pride’ march to celebrate lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender lifestyles.
The school wanted pupils to march to celebrate adult sexual choices at an age where some of them, according to the Daily Mail, “are still learning to read and can’t yet tell the time.”
Despite the school saying that the parade was compulsory, parents stepped in to defend their children.
On the day 110 pupils were absent, either explicitly because of the march or without providing an explanation. As a result, the planned parade was cancelled, although the school did hold a themed assembly instead.
