Boiko the Great says repent by October 14

Its hard to believe but it appears a Russian has topped some American Evangelicals and the Catholic Church when it comes to enforcing enlightenment on his workers.  Vasily Boiko, a Russian tycoon has told 6,000 workers at his private dairy company that they'll be fired if they've ever had an abortion, or if those who are "living in sin" don't get married within two months.

Now there is no mention with respect to queer or gay employees.  Let me guess, they will be publically flogged and then dismissed.  Can't have gay men working in a wholesome milk factory can you.  Still its a bit rich that Boiko-Veliky (he changed his name, it means Boiko the Great) who has been convicted of fraud, to now be pontificating a better way or else.

Boiko the Great blames Russia's extreme weather this summer on what he called a lack of ample religious faith. "Such an extreme situation is punishment for the Russian people's sins," he said according to The Daily Telegraph. "I need to take extreme measures including looking at the way my employees treat God."

If you believe abortion is murder, then act like it is murder.

If you believe abortion is murder, then act like it is murder

The anti-abortion folks as I noted in the post before this one have said the killing of Dr. Tiller was wrong. They have another agenda however. Even as on anti-abortion leader Rev. Patrick Mahoney told associated press, "No one should use this tragedy for political gain.", others are making political hay.

Randall Terry, a way out there anti abortion bully was quoted as saying, "George Tiller was a mass murderer and we cannot stop saying that," Terry said. "He was an evil man — his hands were covered with blood." Terry said he was now concerned that the Obama administration "will use Tiller's killing to intimidate pro-lifers into surrendering our most effective rhetoric and actions."

What was the rhetoric he was referring too? Frederick Clarkson reminds us of when Randall Terry led Operation Rescue in the late 1980s, their slogan was, "If you believe abortion is murder, then act like it is murder."

Clarkson at Talk to Action writes about the rhetoric used by the anti-abortion movement and you may be surprised to read what he has to say about America's new moderate Purpose Driven Life proponent, Rick Warren.
