A Finnish politician on trial for sharing her biblical views on sexuality is heading back to court later this month as her four-year legal battle stretches on. Dr. Päivi Räsänen, the embattled member of Finland’s parliament, told CBN’s Faithwire a hearing in a prosecutor’s appeal after she was cleared of hate speech charges last year is scheduled for Aug. 31. She said she’s prepared to defend herself in any and all necessary courts of law.
“It was four years ago in June 2019 when I posted a Twitter post and also to Facebook, and it was about the Pride event that was going on, and the main church, the Evangelical Lutheran Church, decided to support it officially,” Räsänen said. “And it was a shock to me, and as a member of that church … I asked the leadership of my church … how is it possible that you are supporting something, as a matter of pride, what the Bible calls shame and sin.”

Her simple social media post, which included Scripture from the Book of Romans, soon landed her in legal hot water, as a citizen made a criminal complaint. Then other past comments from Räsänen came under scrutiny. Another complaint was reportedly filed over a radio program she was on and another over an old pamphlet she wrote about same-sex relationships. Police interrogated Räsänen over her views and Finnish prosecutors decided to up the ante and file charges.
“I was first interrogated by the police altogether 13 hours,” Räsänen said. “And I have to say that the situation was really absurd, because just some years ago I was a minister of interior in charge of police.” Räsänen was accused of “inciting against sexual minorities,” a charge which could carry two years in jail or a fine. Listen to her story.
Controlling Protein Is One of the Globalists’ Primary Goals
Between the globalists, corporate interests, and our own government, the food supply is being targeted from multiple angles. It isn’t just silly regulations and misguided subsidies driving natural foods away. Bird flu, sabotaged food processing plants, mysterious deaths of entire cattle herds, arson attacks, and an incessant push to make climate change the primary consideration for all things are combining for a perfect storm to exacerbate the ongoing food crisis.
The primary target is protein. Specifically, they’re going after beef as the environmental boogeyman. They want us eating vegetable-based proteins, lab-grown meat, or even bugs instead of anything that walked the pastures of America. This is why we launched a long-term storage prepper beef company that provides high-quality food that’s shelf-stable for up to 25-years.
At Prepper All-Naturals, we believe Americans should be eating real food today and into the future regardless of what the powers-that-be demand of us. We will never use lab-grown beef. We will never allow our cattle to be injected with mRNA vaccines. We will never bow to the draconian diktats of the climate change cult.
Visit Prepper All-Naturals and use promo code “veterans25” to get 25% off plus free shipping on Ribeye, NY Strip, Tenderloin, and other high-quality cuts of beef. It’s cooked sous vide, then freeze dried and packaged with no other ingredients, just beef. Stock up for the long haul today.
I do not know or care if I am correct, or not, but I like the sound of it as I read my comment. “Are not the Finnish police and prosecutors inciting against a religious minority, Christianity.” So, who in Finland stands for the rights of Christians? If Mrs. Räsänen were not a member of Finland’s parliament I imagine that she would have already been stoned-to-death as sexual minorities in attendance held hands and sang “Kumbaya,” acapella.
