Everyday thousands of children are being sexually abused. You can stop the abuse of at least one child by simply praying. You can possibly stop the abuse of thousands of children by forwarding the link in First Time Visitor? by email, Twitter or Facebook to every Christian you know. Save a child or lots of children!!!! Do Something, please!

3:15 PM prayer in brief:
Pray for God to stop 1 child from being molested today.
Pray for God to stop 1 child molestation happening now.
Pray for God to rescue 1 child from sexual slavery.
Pray for God to save 1 girl from genital circumcision.
Pray for God to stop 1 girl from becoming a child-bride.
If you have the faith pray for 100 children rather than one.
Give Thanks. There is more to this prayer here

Prestigious University Dentistry Students Glorify 'Culture of Rape'

Dalhousie University in Halifax, Nova Scotia has launched an investigation into disturbing, sexually explicit Facebook posts attributed to male students in the faculty of dentistry, CBC News has learned.

The men were part of a Facebook group called the Class of DDS 2015 Gentlemen. The group was removed from Facebook late last week.

Calling the language in the Facebook group "unacceptable and deeply disturbing," university president Richard Florizone announced late Monday that the school will address the issue promptly, announcing next steps before the end of the week.

"Over the next 48 hours the university will consider the full range of options available to us to address these serious allegations," Florizone said in a statement. "Dalhousie will follow an approach that is victim-centred, that focuses on understanding and repairing the harm caused, and that reinforces a safe and respectful environment."


For one of Canada's oldest and most prestigious universities, this incident is a shame and a great embarrassment. The term university student is invariably associated with 'learning'. Yet, it appears that these dentistry students learned nothing from the St. Mary's U. disgraceful behaviour on frosh week just last year. St. Mary's is within sight of Dalhousie.

It is clear that they just don't get the whole 'culture of rape' mentality that they so obviously suffer from. A strong message needs to be sent by the university that the 'culture of rape' is not acceptable on their campus. Perhaps the police should consider charges since it is not acceptable in society either. Nevertheless, I expect none of those idiots think they have done anything wrong.

I would hope that their names get published so that they can be shunned by potential patients in the years to come should they be allowed to graduate. I would prefer that they not be allowed to graduate; they are an embarrassment to the profession.

Fourth-year dentistry exams yet to take place this month have been cancelled, according to the statement, and will instead occur in January.

CBC News obtained screenshots of the group's posts, which are sexually explicit and appear to involve discussions of female classmates.

In one post, members were polled and asked, "Who would you hate f---?" They were given two names to vote on.

Another post shows a woman wearing a bikini. The caption says, "Bang until stress is relieved or unconscious (girl)."

The screenshots also include conversations among the members in the past few days. From those images, it is clear that members of the group were concerned there had been a leak and that the school's administration was now involved.

Jokes about chloroform

"RED ALERT!!!!! RED F---ING ALERT!!!!!" reads one post. "Apparently one of the ladies has seen or heard something about the recent posts in the gentleman's. We have to get rid of the evidence."

The group then launched another poll asking its members whether it should "Do nothing," "Hold off unless the shit hits the fan," "Put posts on the DDS Class of 2015," or "Issue statement of some sort."

Their conversations also include jokes about using chloroform on women.

The words: "Does this rag smell like chloroform to you??" were superimposed on one photo.

In response to another photo of a bikini-clad woman, two members wrote: "Can you tell me what this chloroform smells like?" and "Does this mask smell like nitrous oxide to you?"

The group had at least 12 members.

CBC News has decided not to name the men involved at this stage of the investigation.

Janet Bryson, a spokeswoman for Dalhousie University, told CBC News earlier Monday the university was taking the situation very seriously.

"It's a bit of a complicated process," said Bryson. "There might be a number of students that are involved and trying to ensure that they're getting the support that they need as we go forward investigating it."

At least three of the men have removed their Facebook profiles in the past 24 hours.

The Dalhousie University investigation comes one year after Saint Mary's University (just down the street from Dalhousie) launched a probe of its own into sexual impropriety. That probe began after first-year students were seen in an online video reciting a pro-rape chant.

CBC News spoke with one dentistry student on campus on Monday who said he was "aware" of the group, but wasn't a member. He thought it was a group formed for people who wanted to "gripe."

When reached by email Monday, one of the group's members directed CBC News to his lawyer.
