Read whole thread, and check out link to an English version of the pamphlet Paivi wrote 22 years ago, when her Lutheran church was debating its stance on gay marriage. Her anodyne statement of basic Christian doctrine & its application is "hate speech": lhpk.fi/wp-content/upl…


A new CAMERA analysis found @bbc, @cnn, @nbc and @nytimes used the phrase "war crime" 32 times in the first three weeks of the U.S./Israel-Iran war. 88% of those applications were directed solely toward the actions of the United States and/or Israel. Zero were directed solely toward the actions of the Islamic Republic of Iran. "The disproportionate application of the phrase stands in contrast with reality," writes @dmlitman. "Of the over 400 ballistic missiles fired at Israel, it is estimated that half of them were cluster munitions which drop dozens of submunitions over a wide radius of five miles. As of Mar. 22, at least two dozen of these missiles have hit populated areas, 'with over 100 separate impact sites.' While cluster munitions are not universally banned, using them to target populated areas almost certainly constitutes a war crime."



@MVirtanen Erikoinen tuomio, mutta: Räsästä ei tuomittu raamatun tekstien julkaisemisesta vaan mm. siitä, että hän luonnehti homoseksuaalisuutta psykososiaaliseksi häiriöksi. Häntä ei tuomittu siitä, että hän väitti homoseksuaalisuuden olevan synti.




















A troubling ruling for religious freedom and freedom of expression: Finland’s Supreme Court dismissed the charge over MP Päivi Räsänen’s 2019 Bible-verse social-media post, but convicted her over separate passages in a Christian pamphlet and imposed a fine. Whatever one thinks of the underlying views, the imposition of criminal liability for nonviolent religious expression sets a troubling precedent for religious freedom and freedom of expression.
