google = satan at work
You use their functions, you play by their rules..............
The world rejects the the true God of the Bible. No surprise.
They; men love world religion.
Google deliberately blocks ads from Christian and conservative sites. Google is committed to using its power to promote leftist goals: eliminate Christianity, force acceptance of theocratical dictatorship.
Well, the Google people are “world” and can reasonably be expected to act that way. cph.org is a church evangelization ministry rather than a mere bookseller. And that’s great to Christendom, not so great to secularists.
What to do? I pray (as a Christian even though not a Lutheran by denomination) that there be a wise answer. Maybe Google can be allowed to go its own way. A Christianity that isn’t hated by the world could not see the salvation of a soul from a wet paper bag. The litmus test with the world is working. It says “we don’t like you.”
All platforms are censored by their owner.
Amazon books must all reflect the whacky opinions of Jeff Bezos.
It is 90% fake news out there.
Paper books cannot be modified or censored.
All digital internet text IS censored.
But paper books are still true, Bible included.
Google has evolved into a public utility and should be regulated and busted-up.
My understanding of this is that they cannot use Google’s remarketing ads because of their privacy rules. It does not mean they cannot use other types of Google ads. I’m an LCMS Lutheran, so I am a fan of CPH and would really be concerned about them being excluded, but this is not quite what this article is portraying. As long as Google is consistent....
So live without Google. Simple.
We prohibit advertisers from using sensitive data such as race, religious affiliation, political affiliation or sexual orientation to show ads to users,” a statement from Google reads
Well... that’s everything!
Missouri Synod ping!
Here’s the problem -— if we demand that lawmakers do something about it, they will end up passing some legislation that will backfire, and cause us to lose even more rights. It’s what the democrats are angling for, right now, in these congressional hearings. But I don’t know what the answer is, because it’s not as if we can drive Google out of business. I know how bad it will eventually be -— I’ve read the back of the Book; I just hate to see it unfold before my eyes. Pray without ceasing -— with the election of Donald Trump, we’ve been given a bit of a reprieve, but how long it will last, only God knows.
My Pastor used to be at the Synod headquarters.
He has been preaching pretty regularly that we need to get ready for active persecution. California is getting ready to ban traditional theology on marriage, and that includes the Bible.
Google is going after the “little” publishing houses. I suspect they are holding off from angering the Catholics, or they have reached another accommodation
