Another One: 34th Canadian Church Burned After Woke ‘Mass Grave’ Hoax Said Christians Slaughtered Native Children
Hypothetically, if one were to destabilize Western culture, what’s the best way to do so?
While there are a number of correct answers to that question, one move stands out from the rest: Taking down Christianity.
Whether the left wants to admit it or not, Western culture — and all the good and prosperity it helps engender — is inextricably linked to Christian values.
(Some, including this writer, would even go so far as to describe Christianity as a load-bearing pillar of Western culture.)
So when rampant rumors began circulating about “mass graves” of native children being linked to Canadian schools, it’s hard not to think that the entire point of that controversy was to undermine Christianity.
According to the Catholic League, in 2021, “the Canadian government claimed that Indian children were buried in ‘mass graves’ at residential schools established by the government and run, in part, by the Catholic Church. Prime Minister Justin Trudeau sounded the alarms and ordered the nation’s flags to be flown at half mast; he pledged to spend $40 billion to settle with those associated with the alleged victims.”
Only… there were no bodies found, with 14 excavations of these purported “mass graves” recovering exactly zero bodies.
But while the initial outcry may have been a hoax, the resulting fallout was very real — and it’s churches that are facing the brunt of it.
As the CBC reported in early 2024, at least 33 churches have been burned to the ground. And of those 33 incidents, a shocking 24 of them are confirmed cases of arson.
