Yeah, she’s quite the bully. :smirk:

"Parliament Member Päivi Räsänen, who was interrogated by police for over 13 hours and questioned on how she interprets the Apostle Paul’s letters in the Bible, will appear in court next Monday over criminal charges for voicing her belief on marriage and sexuality.

She authored a 2004 booklet on sexual ethics describing marriage as between one man and one woman."

Free speech is the whole thing, the whole ball game. Free speech is life itself.

I don’t see how that qualifies as bullying, actually.
Who is she seeking to harm or intimidate that she perceives as vulnerable

Vaccine mandates with threats and action causing financial destruction, arrest, forced confinement or health system exclusion for non-compliance and/or verbal resistance… now that’s bullying

Nope.

However it allows free speech almost without any restrictions.

What’s interesting is, AFAIK, neither the Bible nor the Qu’ran has a single word to say about lesbians.

It’s the male male sex act—not even a man finding a man attractive, but actually acting on it—that’s condemned.

So I guess governments in places like Finland and Canada are acting to protect gay males.

So in a sense it’s men who have benefited, rather than women, from liberalism and its other ism’s like feminism.

I wonder if Muslim immigrants are prosecuted, or forced to rewrite Friday sermons so as not to commit “ethnic agitation”, or Orthodox Jews, or if this is strictly to single out and persecute Christians. IMO It’s probably the latter.

You know, if the World Health Organization (WHO) REALLY wants to make itself useful, they need to qualify reality allergy, whose symptom is, well, taking offense to reality, as a highly contagious and potentially lethal to society disorder.

I’ve known individuals infected with it to get extremely upset when told a male male sexual relationship has health possibilities a heterosexual one doesn’t. I’ve known grads with SCIENCE DEGREES to get upset when finding out it wasn’t “society” that was the reason philandering women were more harshly condemned, but the possibility of a baby with unknown or disputed paternity.

Just what do the infected Finn police expect of a woman who was the head of the CHRISTIAN DEMOCRATIC party?! I’m sick of these reality allergic twits and think involuntary stays in an asylum are the only cure.

Seeing nonsense like censorship of persons of faith is the final nail in the coffin of ANY desire I’ve ever had to visit Europe. They will be getting zero tourist income from me.

Expressing a belief is being a bully and the government is not being a bully for attempting to make her renounce her writings? Wow, the irony.

Matthew 24 is where Jesus describes the “end times” and it sure does sound like what’s going on at this very moment in OUR time.

9 “Then they will hand you over to tribulation and kill you, and you will be hated by all nations because of My name. 10 And at that time many will [f]fall away, and they will [g]betray one another and hate one another. 11 And many false prophets will rise up and [h]mislead many people. 12 And because lawlessness is increased, [i]most people’s love will become cold. 13 But the one who endures to the end is the one who will be saved. 14 This gospel of the kingdom shall be preached in the whole [j]world as a testimony to all the nations, and then the end will come.

Well, Romans 1:26 does refer to Lesbianism. Now I’m pretty sure Muslims aren’t being forced to recant teaching on homosexuality, though in some places, of course not in Europe, any such act is punishable by death.

How exactly is she bullying anyone by saying she believes marriage takes place between one man and one woman, or that the male male sex act causes death to the actors?

Are homosexuals in Finnland, or, for that matter, any Finn, forced to listen to her?

I love their code words, “hate speech”.

…attempting to indoctrinate them from their natural sex to another. Glad we found common ground.

I forget conservatives are largely boring literalists.

My problem with this former head of Finland :finland: Christian Democrats is she’s stuck in a time warp.

It’s so passé to be homosexual anymore, so 1950s housewife. It’s about gender studies classes and pronouns now. It’s hip to be a gender fluid Corporal Klinger in a dress with fishnet stockings.

She should at least quote something more relevant to this new reality, like the OT passage about not making women like men nor men like women if she wants to keep preaching the Gospel to the police.
