School Children Trained to Amputate

A British Broadcasting Corporation Panorama Investigation reports that more than 40 schools in Britain have trained over 5,000 children aged 6-18 years on Sharia Law and its punishments. A classroom book teaches 15-year-olds that a thief's "hands will be cut off for a first offence, and their foot for a subsequent offence." Through the use of diagrams these children are taught where the cuts must be made and to cauterize the wound to ensure the person does not bleed to death. In Canada, honour killings have hit the news in several cases such as: the 2009 drowning of four women in the Rideau Canal; the June 2010 stabbing of a teenage girl by her mother; the October 2010 killing of a teenage girl late for prayer. Canada currently identifies over fifty (50) terrorist organizations active in Canada. The world is changing and it's time for Canadians to protect our heritage, our commitment to equality, and our God-given freedoms, on which this country was founded. Our next generation needs to understand who we, as Canadians are and what we stand for. The best way is that they have the opportunity to learn who they are and the gifts they have as they grow to be strong and productive parts of our society. We need to direct them in ways that will enable them to be strong, healthy and productive assets to society at whatever trade or life skill they follow. This is what they need to learn, not how to amputate your hand. PRAYER OF GRATITUDE Even though we clutch our blankets and growl when the alarm rings each morning, we thank you, Lord, that we can hear. There are many who are deaf. Even though we keep our eyes tightly closed against the morning light as long as possible, we thank you Lord, that we can see. There are many who are blind. Even though we huddle in our beds and put off the effort of rising, we thank you, Lord that we have the strength to rise. There are many who are bedridden. Even though the first hour of our day is hectic, when socks are lost, toast is burned, and tempers are short, we thank you, Lord, for our families. There are many who are lonely. Even though our breakfast table never looks like the pictures in magazines and the menu is at times unbalanced, we thank you, Lord for the food we have. There are many who have no job. Even though we grumble and bemoan our fate from day to day and wish our circumstances were not so modest, we thank you, Lord, for the gift of life. Even though we are not the richest folks around and often wish we had more, we thank you Lord for what we have, that we are able to bless you with some of all that you have blessed us with.
