Robert Spencer has called the present day the Age of Absurdity. It is hard to dispute this, but it is also very much an Age of Censorship. We encounter censorship on Facebook, in books, films, TV, on the side of buses, on university campuses, in court rooms, and through anti-virus software.
Perhaps the most ridiculous act of censorship was this nations siding with ISIS after the attempted mass murder in Garland, Texas. However, one need not be a controversial figure to be stifled. Even a Star Boy Scout, with a family tradition in Scouting, can now be kicked out his troop by an anonymous complaint of an alleged anti-Muslim remark in a private conversation.
Christian author destroys leftism after sons booted from Boy Scout troop over ‘anti-Muslim remark’
Dave Urbanski, The Blaze, June 15, 2017
Story continues below advertisementScience-fiction author and Christian John C. Wright hopped on his blog Tuesday to vent about a decidedly humiliating experience his sons endured — and in the process cut leftist philosophy right down to the bone.
Seems the scoutmaster of his sons’ Boy Scout Troop arrived at Wright’s house Sunday and said an “anonymous complaint” surfaced alleging his youngest son uttered an “anti-Muslim remark” in a private conversation.
The penalty? His sons were kicked out of the troop — a verdict that left one of his boys appearing as though he’d been “shot in the guts.”
“He had been in this troop for as long as his boyhood memory reaches, has reached the rank of Star and is about to reach Life, and is a patrol leader,” Wright noted, “or was.”
More from Wright:
The loyalty and long-suffering support of the Wright family for this troop, which has been a part of all our lives for years, suddenly counted for nothing. We dared speak a word that might offend the Prophet of Submission, peace be upon him. The Blasphemy Laws were breached!
Apparently, the decision to expel was made by the pastor of the church sponsoring the troop, even though, technically, it was not his decision to make. I say apparently, because there was no conversation, and no one asked my son for his side of the story.
For the same reason, what precisely the comment was, or who overheard it, I do not know. I suspect my boy was repeating one of his father’s opinions, which can be called “Anti-Muslim” only in the Alice-Through-the-Looking-Glass world of the Left.
What exactly did his son say?
Wright wasn’t sure, but he noted it likely was “something to the effect that America liberty is superior to and incompatible with Shariah Law, and that Christian duty of loving the enemy is superior to and incompatible with Jihadist duty to commit suicide during the mass-murder of innocent women and children dishonorably and indiscriminately, without warning, from ambush.”
And while a new Scout troop was found the very next day, the experience left a bad taste in Wright’s mouth despite his desire to forgive the slight:
But my son is not prepared for betrayal by people, such as Christian pastors, such as his own scoutmaster, whom I taught him to trust, respect and obey.
The world where chaplains will denounce you for being Christian, or Boy Scouts will expel you for being patriotic, is a new world to him.
When a Leftist Christian has to decide between Leftism and the teachings of Christ, he goes Left. When a Leftist Scout has to decide between Leftism and the teachings of Robert Baden Powell, he goes Left. Leftist put Leftism before all other loyalties.
Perhaps the lesson with [sic] toughen his spirit.
Wright then dug deeper into the flaws of the left, which he incisively characterized as more than a “political movement,” since a “political movement would be satisfied with political power.” No, Wright pointed out, the left wants something more:
All an outside observer can tell is that their words are always, always, always contrary to their actions.
In the name of liberating women, they urge mothers to commit infanticide.
In the name of antifascism, they commit fascism.
In the name of alleviating poverty, they enact minimum wages laws to increase unemployment.
In the name of lowering health care costs, they enact rationing which creates shortages which raises costs.
In the name of equality, they enact socialism, erect barbed wire walls, and make whole nations into prison camps.
In the name of safety, they hamper the Second Amendment which makes free men safe.
In the name of liberty, they forever expand the state.
“Hypocrisy is the point of Leftism,” Wright continued. “Cease to wonder how many atrocities of communism or jihadism it will take for the Left to wake up and realize who is their true enemy. If they wished to wake up, they would not be Leftists to begin with. Leftism is a sleeping potion, a morphine meant to numb the senses and silence the conscience, so that the soul can die without pain.”
And control is the name of the game:
The enemy wants control, arbitrary control, over the free expression of ideas in any forum, over the publishing industry, over such trivial matters as toy statues given out as awards at conventions for fans of rocketship stories.
They want control over how female cartoons in computer games are dressed, and they want control over the sex lives of pure imaginary characters from superhero comics.
They have control over the courts, the press, the schools, the entertainment industry, Wall Street. They are rapidly gaining control over the remaining uncorrupted Protestant denominations, over the Orthodox and Catholic Churches.
They want control over the Boy Scouts, and over what opinions a child expresses in private.
Between Christ and Leftism, the war is a religious war, a crusade. The Left is not a political group with political goals, but a Jihad. Their goals are spiritual. Only a Crusader can defeat a Jihadist….

The author should’ve also taught him that a so-called “Christian” will also betray a Christian. Granted, the kid is a kid, but he learned a lesson a little earlier in his life than he needed to. At least the author is fully aware of what’s at stake.
The Boy Scouts have caved into pressure from other leftist groups who won’t admit to pedophilia being on their long-term agenda, and ultimately, Luciferian groups in recent years, so this shouldn’t have come as a total surprise. The Boy Scouts have taken a sharp left turn.
The same would likely have happened has he uttered something anti-LGBT. He has a hard lesson to learn about the reprobate spirit overwhelming 21st Century America.
That is how people learn to hate others, when arrogant stupid persons with some petty authority have to satisfy there repressed sexual needs by dominating others under them. The net result is that the “protected, pandered to” group is despised by others who were irrationally victimized by do gooder supporters of political correctness.
Once again ya hit the nail right on the head Mahou!!
Thanks Mahou. If only folks took time to understand the things God hates – it is not MSM or PC material though, so most avoid the associated divine literature and the instruction it contains, esp. those from the left and Islam. Again, thanks.
My pleasure.
He may just have said something simple like “Mohammad is a murdering pedophile, who on at least one ocassion, is reported to have had sex with a dead woman”. He may innocently have added that “Islam is an ideology of hate”. If that is all he said, then it really seems some people are overly sensitive. I don’t know what he said, but I bet it was true anyway!
Time to fightback by suing for breach of first Amendment rights …….or this will continue.
Muslims In Indiana Are About To Riot After Seeing What Massive Sign Says That Popped Up Overnight about their Perfect man http://bit.ly/2rVCN7E
you can’t please the jihadis can you ? And Left/Liberal is imposing sharia compliant Islamic blasphemy law by shutting down truth/criticism of Islamic bigotry /jihadis/perversions.
good luck with that. mr. obama, the most successful traitor in american history, managed to appoint about one third of federal judges during his 8 years of treason. right now, they are preventing the mr. trump from enforcing a completely-legal travel ban based on a bogus assumption that it’s religion-based (even if it were, it would *still* be legal, because the affected people are not u.s. citizens). what makes U assume that they will allow such a lawsuit to go forward, rather than throw it out with some asinine leftist excuse?
Its this mindset of giving up without even trying is what encourages the enemy within !
So what if 1/3 judges are Left/Liberal , go to the next higher court till you get justice or demand impeachment of judges that do not uphold 1 st amendment.
Today, anyone that is associated with leftist bigots who openly hate and violate the rights of those they disagree with, is dominating society. It will be necessary to take back and politically neuter these institutions. This can only be done with active open resistance to the left, islam and any one else who pushes a social democrat agenda.

Good evidence for trolls. O’loser left out the part of the left spoils winning the right to live in their very own – dhimmidumb.

Then play it all on SNL, colbert, fallon and kimmel with wine for daddy and mommy and popcorn for the kiddies.
All of us, including Pope Benedict!
Jeremiah 17:5
Thus saith the Lord; Cursed be the man that trusteth in man, and maketh flesh his arm, and whose heart departeth from the Lord.
Psalm 118:9King
It is better to trust in the Lord than to put confidence in princes.
John 14:6King James Version (KJV)
Jesus saith unto him, I am the way, the truth, and the life: no man cometh unto the Father, but by me.
Jesus is the only way to the Father not the Pope. Don’t trust man which is what the Pope is or the catholic church.
That pastor is probably licking his chops thinking about future multicultural pastimes with little muslamist kids.
The Boy Scout oath begins with the words; “On my honor I will do my best to do my duty to God and my country…”
If an “anonymous complaint” about a private remark putting one’s God and one’s country’s values before another’s is sufficient to terminate one’s membership in an organization whose oath contains those words, then that organization is not what it claims to be. It is certainly not the same organization of which I was a proud member over 60 years ago.
Unfortunately, there is no reason for a young member’s pride today. The BSA is now an organization for PC – political control.
gay pride is the boy scouts now
got that right!
like the nazi brown shirts
& Mao’s student Red Guard
In the first place, it should be a crime to terminate a young person on the unfounded and anonymous complaint. They should be forced to NAME the person…..just like in a court of law…..nobody should be allowed to get away with doing that. B.S. of of A. is bull sheet of America.
I gotta agree with that Bill. We had a campground in Colorado. The Boy Scouts paid us a visit. When they left we found liquor and beer bottles and cans left on their site. Rocks put in the sewer hookups. Poop and rolls of toilet paper crammed in the toilets stopping them up in both the men’s and women’s bathrooms. We did call and ask them NOT to return!! Stuff did not happen when I was a Boy Scout many years ago!!
I didn’t know schumer and bernie were boy scouts in colorado.
A Christian has no place in the gay, transsexual world of boy (identifying as a boy or identifying as a girl or not sure what they are) scouts.
Find a bible believing group and form your own scouting adventure where you’ll be sure your children won’t be molested or worse…….
Many Muslims can’t wait to abandon their worthless religion.
Do you have any PROOF whatsoever for that statement? Because the spread of the disease called islum across the world doesn’t fill me w/confidence in your statement.
Hey let’s forget about the first amendment for Americans and forget about evidence from the scouts and the “pope” and furthermore let’s start an investigation into obstruction of justice by this renegade scout who no doubt got his information from Putin whom the NYT and the rest of the leftist media will vouch most certainly is a true muslamistphobe. The scout will probably be shown to be guilty by a leaked tweet sure to be-headed this very second to the comedy news network.
Starting to get down to the brass tacks of the matter. This is a spiritual war. This is about YOUR choice of where you choose to spend eternity. In one corner is Adam who represents the world. In the other is Jesus who represents eternity, having been sacrificed for our salvation. Only one choice.
“Everything that we see is a shadow cast by that which we do not see.”

I never heard that quote from MLK. I know he supported Israel — unlike say the pig Malcolm X.
Thank you Gunter. That quote just about sums it up.
The church has betrayed us and Jesus.
The pope has openly sided for Satan/ Allah
The politicians has been bought by Islamic money
The mass media ( CNN & co ) is own by Islamic money
The judges have been either named by the ex Islamic president ( Obama) to carry on sharia law or they capitulated under pressure
The state department is filled with Islamic Obama loyalists ( hence why Ramadan is celebrated but Xmas is ban).
Obama “the Islamic ” has purchased a house across the street from the Islamic center of D.C. To fight the Trump anti Islamization battle , an uphill battle considering most in congress are bought by Islamic money and the Democratic Party who is nothing more now than the Islamic party owns Washington
Time for 1/2 measures and political correctness is over, it is actually killing us and they know it.
It is up to only up to us . Question is : are we willing to fight against the evil forces of Islam?
I am willing to die for Jesus If it can destroy Islam, the sect of Satan.
“It is true that political correctness is literally eroding our systems from within and destroying them. The
radical Muslims see this and they are exploiting it.”
~ Ayaan Hirsi Ali, March, 2016
Indeed. The Islamic leadership knows how to use our values against us .( with the tight collaboration of our gullible naive liberals left).
The average Muslim is actually pretty stupid ( IQ of 80 ) Somalian and Ethiopian have IQ OF 60 average, that’s technically retarded.
That’s why their leadership with above average intelligence find it so easy to control its people, they mostly are imbeciles.
I mean you have to be pretty thick to believe that If you commit atrocities you will be granted a bunch of 8 year old girls to screw and drink free beer….
If your on FB look me up, would love to talk

Look for a Trail Life USA for boys in your area and Heritage Girls of America for girls. Both Christian Organizations.
Well, if nobody knows what he said but kicked his ass out I don’t think you want the boy in something like that anyway. He’ll become just, well, SLOPPY.
This sort of retribution for making an innocent, and yet insightful, remark is the sort of thing that occurred in Communist China under Mao and is the current order of the day in North Korea. Remember, some of the most famous last words known to mankind are, “It can’t happen here”. Who predicted 9/11, the baseball field shooter, San Bernardino, Orlando, Ft. Hood? No one, so be safe, be trained, be alert and keep your concealed weapon in good working order.
The scouts are nothing anymore. Hypocrites, sodomy-loving faggots. Not the boys or girls, but the leadership, which has delved into the lowest levels of filth imaginable. The liberal takeover of our youth’s minds is almost complete, and we need to put a firm stop to it.
I fear that a very questionable scout environment has been festering for a long time in this troop. This parent should simply find another (better) troop for his sons. Scouts move from troop to troop all the time. Scouting is supposed to be about the outdoor experience, not about politics.
I was a Boy Scout, I started with the Cub Scouts, became a Member of the Order of the Arrow and was an Eagle Scout! The Scouts taught me about loyalty to my country, my Flag, my friends and my Church. I was able to learn so many new things while I was with the BSA. BUT my country and the BSA have become a bunch of sissies, little girls with NO backbone, no honor! Americans are slowly but surely giving away our Country, our Homeland to these evil, vile muslims and I will have NO part in it! Americans need to grow a “backbone, a spine to fight for what has made America a great country! GOD BLESS AMERICA!
Sam: Well said
None of my children were allowed to join the boy or girl scouts for good reason. I was in the boy scouts in the 60’s and was attacked by a pedophile Scoutmaster while a member. Thank goodness my parents taught me well and I didn’t allow this pervert to have his way with me. If you value your children’s physical and emotional health you would do well to stay clear of these organizations.
This organization has truly lost all sense of meaning and purpose… 🙁
Amazing and disgusting. We’ve lost the Boy Scouts as well. We appear to have lost just about everything.
Is there anything left, or are we now essentially a communist country.
The Boy Scouts are now being indoctrinated with Marxist ideology.
