After succumbing to a fever of some sort in 1705, Irish woman Margorie McCall was hastily buried to prevent the spread of whatever had done her in. Margorie was buried with a valuable ring, which her husband had been unable to remove due to swelling. This made her an even better target for body snatchers, who could cash in on both the corpse and the ring.
The evening after Margorie was buried, before the soil had even settled, the grave-robbers showed up and started digging. Unable to pry the ring off the finger, they decided to cut the finger off. As soon as blood was drawn, Margorie awoke from her coma, sat straight up and screamed.
The fate of the grave-robbers remains unknown. One story says the men dropped dead on the spot, while another claims they fled and never returned to their chosen profession.
Margorie climbed out of the hole and made her way back to her home.
Her husband John, a doctor, was at home with the children when he heard a knock at the door. He told the children, “If your mother were still alive, I’d swear that was her knock.”
When he opened the door to find his wife standing there, dressed in her burial clothes, blood dripping from her finger but very much alive, he dropped dead to the floor. He was buried in the plot Margorie had vacated.
Margorie went on to re-marry and have several children. When she did finally die, she was returned to Shankill Cemetery in Lurgan, Ireland, where her gravestone still stands. It bears the inscription “Lived Once, Buried Twice.”
Leftist elites in Canada have launched a campaign to normalize Sharia law – the illiberal and often barbaric set of laws enforced in Islamic dictatorships.
In Ottawa, the Trudeau government was in the middle of what feels like a show-trial designed to make “Islamophobia” illegal – a term the government itself has failed to define.
After the controversial M-103 was passed in Parliament, leftist media and the Trudeau government insisted that the critics were wrong, that it’s just a motion – symbolic! – and that M-103 will have no legislative impact.
When the Heritage Committee began its hearings, however, critics who expressed concern over the motion were proven right.
One of the first experts to testify implied police should prosecute Canadians over social media posts that police deem offensive or incorrect. Yes, prosecute.
Orwell would be rolling in his grave.
More than just Orwellian, these official suggestions are reminiscent of theocratic tyranny. That’s not Canadian law. That’s Sharia law.
In the background of this charade, the mainstream media joined in and is doing its part to support Trudeau’s agenda.
The article quoted a Liberal MP and several spiritual leaders who defended M-103, without providing balance or skepticism over the motion or towards Sharia .
The article explained how Sharia is already in Canada, that it only governs religious practices and only applies to people inside the Muslim community.
It included a quote from an advocate saying that those who oppose M-103 and fear Sharia are motivated by “bigotry, plain and simple.”
Pretending Sharia is already here and no big deal is incorrect; vilifying those who oppose it is both dishonest and dangerous.
Back in 2003, the Islamic Institute of Civil Justice proposed that Muslims have their own tribunals and a parallel legal system – Sharia law – in Ontario.
It was then Muslim activists who took a stand and launched campaigns against these proposed Sharia courts.
Iranian-born Homa Arjomand argued that Sharia tribunals would undermine women’s rights and “push back Canadian law by 1,400 years.”
“Keep Sharia Law out of Canadian judicial system,” Sun columnist Tarek Fatah wrote at the time, arguing that religious tribunals trespass upon the public domain.
Activist Nasrin Ramzanali said that if these Sharia courts materialized, “I (would) feel threatened here.”
Ultimately the Liberal government in Ontario rejected the bid to allow Sharia courts.
We shouldn’t pretend that Sharia already governs in Canada; we should fight against it at every opportunity.
That’s because Sharia is not just a set of religious rules, it is a totalitarian ideology that enforces a sexist and outdated worldview.
Sharia insists that there is no separation between mosque and state, and that Islamic rules dictate both the private and public lives of the people.
Sharia law replaces Canadian law, it doesn’t live alongside it – but that’s not where the trouble with Sharia ends.
Even if Sharia only applied to Muslims in Canada, how would we feel about a set of laws that permits a man to beat his wife? How about a legal system that allows a man to divorce his wife simply by saying the word “divorce” three times aloud?
Sharia is not consistent with our way of life in Canada – despite what The “Liberals” in Government and the CBC want us to believe.
@gservator , why do I feel like painfully stupid would be the best way to describe the government under Justin Trudeau?
Really though, I don’t want to make fun of it too much because I know that you guys are actually living that reality up there and that shit is fucking terrifying. Sometimes I don’t understand how the West I ever got where it is today.
Yeah I mean it would be dumb of me to say I live in a shitty country. But the amount of REALLY stupid shit that keeps on happening is beginning to make me rather nervous. Trudeau is messing us up and I’m not really surprised.
What was he even doing with himself before he became prime minister? He was a part-time Drama teacher and something else, but I don’t know what it was because I’m a dumb American. I don’t blame you for being nervous, the amount of shit coming out of Canada probably makes most of this continent pretty nervous.
I think he was. I hear people say that a lot.. It’s just frustrating shit. It’s embarrassing. Our government caves into so much
Yeah, I’ve noticed. And why? Because Daddy was prime minister too? Or was it his grandfather?
Father
I thought so. I guess I’m not that dumb of an American after all.
So answer me this, is the Trudeau family the Canadian equivalent of the Bush family in that it’s basically a dynasty?
No, I’d say worse since the Trudeau’s were best friends with dictators, would cripple the economy each time they got in and glorify the Anti west message each time aswell.
Yeah, that’s definitely worse. It definitely scared me when I saw him talking about how much he loves Castro. That’s not the guy you want running a western country. That’s a guy you want to send over to Cuba.
hi!! i’m taking part in the BT Young Scientist & Technology Exhibition this year, and i’m doing a study on stim toys, and the advantages and disadvantages of their normalization (aka, fidget spinners got really popular this year, and i wanna showcase how exactly that affects people with adhd and autism who use stim toys). i was wondering if you could fill out + share my survey for me!
the people who i’m looking for to fill this out are ideally autistic people,people with adhd, (including self-diagnosed), or anyone who knows somebody who is autistic or has adhd, who are currently attending school of any sort. the survey is on google forms, and contains 13 yes/no questions.
