SDA News - Cancel Culture Cancels Adventism

"Pastor Jan Marcussen’s book National Sunday Law (NSL) is
creating a lot of controversy in New Zealand as Haley Rivas Herrera, the mother of a child who is responsible for delivering newspapers, told the local news that she is going to burn the piles of NSL books they gave her daughter to distribute to her newspaper route. 
The books were part of a mass mailing campaign in Wellington, Lower Hutt and surrounding areas to share the Three Angels’ Messages with the community. 
But the mother wasn’t upset that her 11-year-old daughter was delivering advertisements for alcohol, she was only outraged about the National Sunday Law books. Haley told the media that she was going to put the stacks of National Sunday Law books in the “wood burner.”
 
This news was reported on March 9, 2021 by Stuff, New Zealand’s most popular news website which has around 2 million monthly readers.
The report quoted Haley Rivas Herrera, who said she was “horrified” and “disgusted” with the National Sunday Law book and called it “extreme and insidious propaganda, extreme religious rhetoric” and a “conspiracy theory.”
 
Why are Adventists silent and why would a newspaper distribution company risk the possibility of legal action for not fulfilling its contractual obligations and allow National Sunday Law books to be burned? It is because nobody wants to feel the wrath of Rome:

And they worshiped the beast, saying, Who is like unto the beast? who is able to make war with him Revelation 13:4.

 We are witnessing the cancel culture and the denial of free speech and freedom to practice one’s faith." AdventMessenger
