Have you suddenly not been able to receive emails and emailed alerts from your favorite Christian Internet site? This story may provide the answers as to why this type of censorship is beginning to occur.
NEWS BRIEF: "INTERNET PROVIDERS CENSORING CONSERVATIVE NEWS E-MAIL", News With Views, by Jim Kouri, April 26, 2007
"Something ominous and sinister has been happening on the Internet lately: two major internet service providers -- without any prior explanation or notice -- have been discriminating against conservative e-zines and web journals. According to several subscribers to NewsWithViews.Com's newsletter, companies such as Earthlink and SBC Global are intentionally blocking delivery of NWV's e-mail to subscribers ... As reported by NewsBusters, the most recent widespread occurrence of this unexplained phenomenon was when Frank Salvato, proprietor of The New Media Journal, realized that his content that day hadn't been disseminated at Google News as it had been on a daily basis since he reached an agreement with the search engine in September 2005.
"After sending the Google Help Desk a query concerning the matter, Salvato was informed that there had been complaints of 'hate speech' at his website, and as a result, The New Media Journal would no longer be part of Google News. As evidence of his offense, the Google Team supplied Salvato with links to three recent op-eds published by his contributing writers, all coincidentally about radical Islam and its relation to terrorism."
Therefore, we have a number of Internet Service Providers completely shutting out emails from Internet Sites which they have deemed guilty of "Hate Speech". These companies are:
1) Google
2) Earthlink
3) SBC Global
Furthermore, if emails are getting shut out, and if dissemination of material is being stopped, it is only a matter of time before these ISP's will not allow any person using their facilities to even go to the website of a ministry deemed guilty of "Hate".
Of course, Cutting Edge will be one of those Internet sites which will be categorized as being guilty of "Hate Speech", for we take the proper Biblical attitude toward the most heinous sin of homosexuality. The time has come for every Christian and every secular person who cares about their freedom to speak and to access the material they want to access to speak up, contacting ISP front offices and your congressmen.
But, most importantly, it is time to seek out Internet Service providers who are genuinely Conservative. Even better, it is time to seek out "Family Friendly" Internet Service providers. To find Internet Service Providers (ISP) in your area, go the "The List".
You can then call ISP's in your area and ask them how they filter out spam and offensive emails. If they buy a list from an outside firm, do not go with them, for that list is invariably created by people hostile to Christian values.
We encourage you to read the entire News With Views article, above, for it contains a lot of very good information which you need to understand.
The times of Lot are at hand, just as Jesus foretold, and just as Dr. Larry Spargimino details in his book, "Living In Sodom Today". What did Jesus prophesy?
"So also it was the same as it was in the days of Lot. People ate, they drank, they bought, they sold, they planted, they built; But on the very day that Lot went out of Sodom, it rained fire and brimstone from heaven and destroyed them all. That is the way it will be on the day that the Son of Man is revealed." (Luke 17:28-29; Parallel Bible, KJV/Amplified Bible Commentary)
Jesus foretold that one of the "prophetic signs" which would herald the coming of the End of the Age, would be when society -- global society -- slides into the same type of homosexuality which so dominated Sodom and Gomorra.
Cutting Edge posted an article a number of years ago on the subject of Sodom and Gomorra which has stood the test of time. This article is entitled, "AMERICA LURCHES HARD AND ABRUPTLY TOWARDS SODOM", NEWS1949)
Do you have the courage to face the hard truth?
