Conservative Canadian governement spends $800,000.00 on translated bibles for Africa and Asia

Atta Boy, Gilles, You Tell ‘em Where it’s at!
Excerpt:
Can someone explain to me how the bible being translated into African
and Asian dialects is supposed to help a poor weak and tired woman
feeling nothing but despair, wondering how she’ll feed her kids today? 
Or how does sending preachers to explain how end times are a comin’ to
women whose time has come now or that of her child’s due to starvation
and lack of proper health care? And a question that I share with ACR’s
Pale Cold:  How comforting can a preacher who has translated the Lord’s
Prayer be to a woman who is dying from complications to giving birth to
13 kids in a 10 year span?

Harper and the Religious Right destroying Canada

Canadians seem to care more about sports than Canada

If Only Canadians Can Have as Much Passion Over What’s Happening to Them as They do About Hockey
Excerpt:
How come Canadians can’t be this passionate and channel all that energy
into politics? I mean, it’s about their futures, for the love of gawd.
To me, it seems that they care more about what happens to their
favourite team and/or least favourite player than they do about
themselves, regarding the most important things; will I be able to
continue earning a living? Will I be able to access health care for my
family and myself? Will we become a nation of Evangelicals waiting
while they engineer the end times (wouldn’t it put it past those
wingnuts to do just that)? Will be able to retire? If we had at least
half that passion, we wouldn’t be living under such scary and uncertain
times, or at least, we wouldn’t allow our governments to ‘boil the
frog’, in turning Canada into a place we are starting to no longer
recognize.
