The Sports Minister says he's up for conversations on hosting the next America's Cup. Team New Zealand has won a record-setting third Cup in a row. Team boss Grant Dalton says they've accepted a challenge from Britain's Ineos Britannia team and hosting in New Zealand is on the table. Auckland last hosted the Cup in 2021, during Covid. Chris Bishop says the ball is ultimately in the team's court - but there's a lot to weigh up. "Times are tight, as everyone knows - there's no magic money tree at the end of the garden. We don't have an unlimited checkbook and you're dealing with quite big sums of taxpayer money here." LISTEN ABOVESee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Sports, Arts and Culture Minister, Gayton McKenzie says he has not done anything outside the ministerial handbook following recent outcry over the more than R800 000 in taxpayer's money that was spent for his trip to France for the 2024 Olympic games. McKenzie was speaking to members of the media earlier today, where his party, the Patriotic Alliance was updating the country on the party's first 100 days in office, since the constitution of the Government of National Unity. McKenzie says he should not be compared to super fans

Minister for Sport and Recreation Chris Bishop says he is considering updating the guiding principles for transgender athletes participating in sports, after more than 50 Olympians and high-profile sports identities signed a letter challenging the Government to ban male advantage from women's sports. The group, including gold medal winners Barbara Kendall and Joseph Sullivan, accuses Sport New Zealand's guidelines of disregarding the rights of female athletes. It argues the guidelines allow males who identify as female to compete in women's sports without any explanation or transition. They believe that accepting self-identification as the sole criterion for inclusion goes against scientific evidence and disrespects female athletes. Yesterday, Bishop was presented the letter by former Olympic cyclist Gary Anderson, professional ironman athlete Candice Riley, and Save Women's Sport Australasia co-founder Ro Edge. “I think they make some fair points and we are considering updating the guidelines,” Bishop told the Mike Hosking Breakfast this morning. “The major point I think they make which I think has some merit to it is that the guidelines don't say anything at the moment about fairness. “It's a document-based, all-around inclusion, and that's really important because we want everyone, no matter their gender or how they identify to be able to participate in community sport – that is really important. We've also got to get the balance right between making sure that people feel like they can participate but also that there's fairness in the sports and safety for people participating as well. “I think the document could be updated to better reflect what I think the community expects from that so just having to think about that and once we've got a position on that, we'll we'll take it forward.” In June, the Herald revealed that following a comprehensive survey of 63 taxpayer-funded New Zealand national sports, 18 (29 per cent) of sporting codes have a transgender inclusion policy in place. Of those, 11 used Sport NZ's guidance to develop their policy. Some 45 (71 per cent) organisations did not have a policy, but 21 of those were developing one. At the recreational level, boxing and Triathlon NZ have open categories in which anyone, including transgender people, can participate. Setting age and stage conditions for the inclusion of transgender people in the gender they identify with is another approach. NZ Rugby League has a policy that at age 13 and over participants must compete in the gender they are assigned at birth. Other sports such as netball require participants, at certain levels, to have either undertaken hormone therapy, testosterone levels below a stated level, or provide a document confirming their legal gender. Bishop emphasised the guidelines were simply that and weren't mandatory. “Some sports are doing this quite well and are grappling with it. Others are sort of yet to kind of turn their mind to it, particularly comprehensively, and the guidelines will help in doing that,” he told Hosking. “They're just, it's meant to be just helpful guidance for sports to use as they navigate through this issue.” Asked whether Sport NZ shared Bishop's views, the minister told Hosking it was a government department that reported to him and was required to give effect to government policy – if he asks them to update the guidelines, they will have to.

"Enough is enough! 'We've had enough of favouritism in appointing unqualified individuals as Sports Minister. This time, we won't tolerate it. Only qualified persons should be appointed to this position. Ghana is moving forward and will never go back. We will hold you accountable!' - Countryman Songo lashes out."

It's Wednesday, April 12th, A.D. 2023. This is The Worldview in 5 Minutes heard at www.TheWorldview.com. I'm Adam McManus. (Adam@TheWorldview.com) By Jonathan Clark Malaysia state bans Muslims from attending Christian events Malaysia's state of Selangor issued an anti-Christian ruling last month. It bans Muslims from visiting non-Muslim places of worship, including churches. Selangor is the most populous state in the Southeast Asian country which has a Muslim majority.  The ban comes after Malaysia's Sports Minister announced an event for people to learn about Christianity.  An Open Doors spokesman said, “It is alarming to see the rise in incidents like this, giving more and more control to the Islamic authority and restricting the rights of the minorities.” Malaysia is ranked 43rd on the Open Doors' World Watch List of nations where it is most difficult to be a Christian.  Iran and Saudi Arabia restore diplomatic ties with one another Iran and Saudi Arabia restored diplomatic ties last Thursday with one another. The two countries have long been rivals, and for seven years they have not had diplomatic ties. The Iranian and Saudi foreign ministers came to the agreement, brokered by China, during a meeting in Beijing. This represents China's increased influence among Gulf Arab states as the U.S. presence in the region diminishes. Int'l Monetary Fund expects global economy to grow by 3% On Tuesday, the International Monetary Fund said it expects the global economy to grow around 3% annually over the next five years. It's the weakest growth forecast since 1990. The IMF's latest report predicts 90% of advanced economies will stop expanding this year. This comes as countries in North America and Europe raise interest rates to combat inflation. Meanwhile, about half of global growth is expected to come from economies in Asia like China and India. Idaho and Indiana crack down on kids' gender confusion More U.S. states are cracking down on gender confusion. Last week, Idaho and Indiana enacted laws to protect children from puberty blockers and so-called “sex-change” surgeries. Ten other states have passed similar legislation. Even more states have banned males, pretending to be females, from competing in female sports. In response, the Biden administration is trying to protect gender confusion. Last week, the U.S. Department of Education proposed expanding Title IX protections to include “gender identity.” This would effectively keep publicly-funded schools from banning transgender athletes.   Romans 1:28 says, “And since they did not see fit to acknowledge God, God gave them up to a debased mind to do what ought not to be done.” 2 pro-abort vandals charged in Florida At the end of last month, the U.S. Department of Justice announced a federal grand jury charged two more people for attacking pro-life pregnancy centers in Florida. A total of four people have now been indicted for pro-abortion vandalism in the state. If convicted, they could face years in prison and hundreds of thousands of dollars in fines. However, the four indictments are small in comparison with the dozens of pro-abortion attacks carried out on pregnancy centers over the last year. 150 Catholic priests in Baltimore abused 600 kids Last Wednesday, Maryland's Attorney General Anthony Brown released a 463-page report on child sexual abuse in the Archdiocese of Baltimore. The Archdiocese is the oldest Roman Catholic diocese in the U.S. The report accuses 150 Catholic priests and other individuals from the Archdiocese of abusing over 600 children during the span of 80 years. More workers taking parental leave The Wall Street Journal reports the number of workers taking parental leave is up 13.5% from 2021. Nearly 500,000 working parents took leave in January, the most since 1994. One driving factor is an increase in the number of births in the past two years. Another factor is an increase in the availability of paid parental leave. Last March, 25% of workers had access to parental leave, up from 19% in 2019. Seven states now require employers to offer paid leave, up from four in 2018. 66% of Americans believe Jesus rose from dead And finally, Lifeway Research released a study last Wednesday ahead of Resurrection Sunday.  The survey found 66% of U.S. adults believe the Biblical accounts of the physical resurrection of Jesus are completely accurate. Twenty-three percent disagree, and 11% aren't sure. However, Lifeway reports many Americans have conflicting views on the Bible and see little connection between the resurrection of Christ and their daily lives. The Apostle John wrote in Revelation 1:4-6, “Grace to you… from Jesus Christ the faithful witness, the firstborn of the dead, and the ruler of the kings on earth . . . who loves us and has freed us from our sins by His blood and made us a kingdom, priests to His God and Father.” Close And that's The Worldview in 5 Minutes on this Wednesday, April 12th in the year of our Lord 2023. Subscribe by iTunes or email to our unique Christian newscast at www.TheWorldview.com.
