It is always interesting to see what others find interesting, and that is no different from the list of top 10 posts here at ΒιβλιοΠολιτ! Unlike my Top 10 at Theo-Enthumology, a post from 2010 actually made it to number 1 here at ΒιβλιοΠολιτ! At Theo-Enthumology, only 2 posts from 2010 made it to the top 10, whereas here at ΒιβλιοΠολιτ 5 made it! (And, of course the #1 spot!)

So, what are the top 10 posts?

Obama backs U.seless N.ations Declaration on the Rights of Indigenous People

The U.N. resolution says that “[i]ndigenous peoples have the right to the lands, territories and resources which they have traditionally owned, occupied or otherwise used or acquired.” You can read the report at CNSNEWS.

Of course, in his support of this U.seless N.ations resolution, Obama apologized once again, like he has to so many people, for “the sad and painful chapters in our shared history--a history too often marred by broken promises and grave injustices against the First Americans.”

Of course, it is not just the “colonialists” that “took” land from the indigenous tribes. What about indigenous tribes that took land from other indigenous tribes? Which one of the tribes will eventually have the “true” rights to the land.

Here are some thoughts:
How far back does this reversal of land ownership go? 100 years? 200 Years? 2000 years? All the way back to Adam? W
ill the land be returned to the “original” owners in the condition that they “lost” it, or in the new improved and advanced condition? If the land is given back to people as far back as n years, maybe they must only be allowed to use the land as they would have used it n years ago. And, maybe they should not be allowed to live on that land as moderns, but as they would have n years ago. Isn’t this what land-ownership-reversal is all about? Should the time and living conditions also be reversed, or in this reversal, should the “original” new owners benefit from all the advances made on the land? Should they really benefit from the advances? Is there any guarantee that they would have advanced the land to its current condition, had they kept and lived on the land without the Europeans’ technology and advancements?

Sometimes, there are more consequences than expected when clever ideas are thought of, such as this one. Will someone end up losing their land, because someone else makes a decision that will affect him?

Anyhow, these were just some thoughts on the subject.

Summer starts officially... tomorrow!

Image courtesy timeanddate.com

I know, I know! You are probably saying that Summer Solstice (for those in the Southern Hemisphere), or more generally, December Solstice, is today at 23:38 UTC (11:38pm).

However, if you live where I live, South Africa (or further east), Summer Solstice, which marks the official start of summer in the Southern Hemisphere, only starts tomorrow. In South Africa, Summer Solstice is at 01:38 (1:38am) tomorrow morning, Wednesday, 22 December 2010! New Zealand’s Summer Solstice is at 12:38 (pm), Wednesday, 22 December 2010.

China’s Confucius Peace Prize

What a hoot! Phenomenal human rights violator, China, now has its own peace prize. Who in the world are they trying to fool? Only the fool will shout “Peace!” when there is no peace!

American government forcing military to accept open pursuers of a particular sexual perversion

Just been reading Hither and Thither by Dan Philips. One of the subjects he touches on a couple of times is the issue of the U.S. government wanting to force the acceptance of “homosexuals” back into the American military. So, without rambling on myself, I’ll let Dan explain it himself:

  • Here's an interest study in MSM bias. Never seen anything quite like this though. Same paper, same day, two stories, two "takeaways." They even have almost the same pictures at the head! The news source is the Washington Times. The subject is forcing our military to accept open pursuers of a particular sexual perversion. One story says the military is OK with it, the other story says the military strongly resists it. Guess which one is from AP? Correct: the first. Guess which tells another story? Correct, the one by veteran national security reporter Rowan Scarborough.
  • Depressing to read the political military heads and desk-jockies ready to throw the fighting men under the bus in the name of political correctness and social experimentation.
  • Indeed, the indispensable Elaine Donnelly, of the Center for Military Readiness, agrees that the Pentagon let the troops down. She observes that the report identifies not one benefit to the military from forcing this issue; also, some 60% believe that it would have a negative impact; would have untold negative consequences on chaplains and those currently serving due to "Zero Tolerance" for recognizing homosexuality's immoral, aberrant nature. Just a rush-job to deliver on a bad political promise.
  • Perhaps even more of a killer: "More than a third of Marines (38.1 percent) and nearly a fourth of all personnel (23.7) said they would either leave the military or think about doing so if the policy is reversed, and 40 percent of Marines and 27 percent of all the military said they would be less likely to recommend to a friend or family member that he or she join the military." That's what I've been telling you: each move towards forcing the military to embrace this perversion is a move towards a compulsory draft.
  • Meanwhile, California's disgrace, Senatrix Barbara Boxer, had someone write an editorial for her pressing for this horrible idea, ignoring all the facts, and including this chestnut: "...American taxpayers have been forced to pay up to a half a billion dollars to replace the 13,000 service men and women discharged under this policy." Although, if the estimable Senatrix's point is that these individuals should be billed for the costs incurred by their knowing duplicity, I might be on-board.

I am totally with Dan on this one. With the return of “pursuers of a particular sexual perversion,” I can only imagine the infighting that will happen within the U.S. forces. Would you want to appear naked in front of another man who may want to have sex with you? In the same way I don’t use toilet facilities together with women, I will not want to do the same with these perverts around! This will mean the end of the U.S. military. When a military is weakened morally to this point, it will become a non-combatant military. Switch off the lights when you leave!

Western Cape government officials on indigent grant list

“[T]he names of five government officials [were found] on the beneficiary list meant for indigent households” in need of “urgent government support.” The whole report can be read at Eye Witness News. Patricia de Lille, Western Cape Social Development MEC, said that these officials “will be disciplined soon.”

I hope that by “disciplined” she actually means charged with theft! These people are involved in corruption, and theft of the highest order. They are stealing money from the citizens of this country! If I steal, I go to jail!

To jail with them!

When the wicked seize the Mother City (Cape Town)

I reported in a previous post, that Errol Naidoo, of the Family Policy Institute, has released an Action Alert concerning Cape Town’s marketing of the Mother City Queer Project, which is an annual celebration of the perverted homosexual lifestyle during December. He has once again asked for Christians to take action in this regard.

SA government wants to control what you are paid

governmentrefundThe so-called freedoms gained by the democratic elections of 1994 are in jeopardy from all fronts. Just recently a furore broke out in this country, where the ANC wants to curb free speech in the newspapers. Then, they started calling for nationalization of mines. They further also want a National Health Insurance (NHI), which you as a citizen will have to pay for, whether you use it or not!

This government, run by the ANC, now wants to tell private businesses how much of an annual increase they may give their workers, especially if a person earns a certain amount of money. The suggestion is that a cap is put on bonuses and increases for senior managers and executives that earn more than R550k ($77,588 – exchange rate per 24 Nov 2010) per annum. They further suggest that people earning less than R20k ($2,821) per month should get increases equal to inflation PLUS a real increase. On the other hand, those that earn more than R20k per month should get increases equal to inflation only.

Taxi drivers strike against new AARTO Act because they will lose most

Taxi drivers have decided to strike today against the new AARTO (Administrative Adjudication of Road Traffic Offences) Act.

The Aarto system penalises drivers with demerit points for traffic offences. Once a driver has 12 demerit points, his or her driver's licence gets suspended for three months. A driver's licence gets cancelled on the third suspension,” writes Giordano Stolley at Mail&Guardian.

The South African Transport and Allied Workers' Union (Satawu) is demanding that the government withdraws the new licensing system, saying that it would cause their members untold hardship and a loss of jobs.

You see, these striking taxi drivers are concerned about the hardship and loss they will suffer due to the new law.

What they do not want to admit to is the fact that of all drivers in South Africa, taxi drivers are in my opinion by far the worst! It is true that they will suffer and experience job losses among them. In fact, many of them will experience this sooner rather than later! They drive like hooligans, and ignore traffic laws and regulations with impunity! They are in fact a danger not just to others using South African roads, but to the very passengers they transport across the country!

If there is indeed a way of controlling the taxi industry and its lawlessness, then it must be done!

I say, go AARTO!

Will America survive itself?

godblessamericaI love America, and I am not ashamed of it! Even though I am a South African, I love the United States of America! Many South Africans only show disdain for America, but the fact is that most of them only know America from what they see in the movies and TV shows, or perhaps the misguided CNN news channel.

My family and I lived there for 2 years (Columbus, Ohio) and we thoroughly enjoyed it. My greatest wish is to be able to return to the U.S. in order to live there for the remainder of my life. Will God grant that wish?

Even if He doesn’t, and I never get to see the friends we made there from 1999-2000, I will always have fond memories of our time there.

So, when I read about some of the truly stupid things that the lawmakers get up to in the U.S., I feel sadness, that such a great nation could one day just be another ordinary nation on a list of nations with nothing special to offer. Yet, the results of the mid-term elections give me hope, that somewhere, in the soul of America, there are still people that have some common sense.

Racist South African Idols judge lashes out at Idols racism

maralouwMara Louw, who has already made several racist remarks in her stint as Idols judge in South Africa, has done it again!

In an outburst mentioned in a news article at News24, she is reported to have said:

“White people vote for white people and black people get the short end of the stick.”

She also said that “Black people don't have access to DStv. So a large part of South Africa is excluded.” That may or may not be so, however, there are a lot of up-and-coming black South Africans that are already hooked up to DSTV.
