When our coppers care more about painting nails than catching criminals, something is very wrong

If you want to find a policeman nowadays, don’t call 999: go to a gay pride rally. They’ll be out in force, posing for photos with drag queens, having a merry old time and proving beyond doubt that they are absolutely, definitely not bigots.

Greek Orthodox ring bells in mourning and protest over radical transgender law

Christian churches in Greece are ringing their bells in mourning over a radical transgender law passed earlier this month.

Metropolitan Ambrose of Kalavryta and the clergy of his diocese are ringing their church bells loudly every day at noon for three minutes. 

“It is an outrageous inspiration for someone to change his gender in a few minutes, with a simple declaration, so contrary to what God has gifted people with,” the clergy of the diocese wrote in a released statement. “Whoever has ‘gender dysphoria’ is mentally ill.”
