A Swedish prosecutor has brought charges against a Christian website for "hate speech" against homosexuals, because the site presents a biblical case that homosexual behavior is wrong. The case is to be heard in Stenungsund district court in April. The prosecutor is seeking a jail term for the website administrator.
The article (in Swedish) is at this link:

I can't read Swedish; I wonder what the "hate speech" consisted of. Maybe they said homosexuality is a perversion, such as mentioned numerous times in the Bible...?
easy for you to say.
If the apostle Paul could say it after all he'd been through, ...
On second thought, welcome to Free Republic. Interesting screen name you got there. Banned much?

Awfully long list. Sadly, I can't find even one item to be untrue.
What's more sad is that is what I put together just waiting on my mail to download this morning. I'm afraid the list is going to get longer...much longer if I really think about it.
Supreme Court "Justice" Breyer will no doubt refer to this case as reason for his rulings on the constitutionality of US "hate" crime laws.
It has been starting for a while. The European churches have burned in Norway by the Pagans. Christianity on the wane in the West.

Wow! That's a good list.
