  • Government grifters and charlatan faith leaders have completely debased the idea of ‘Christianity’ over the past few decades to the point where most people associate Christianity as some joke religion that no one really takes seriously.

    Personally, I see anyone who proclaims themselves as Christian as a liar, bigot, narcissist and someone lacking in empathy for others. Sure you can tell me about Jesus Christ but I associate anyone who claims him are just paying lip service to the religion and that they are just psychotic sociopaths who are only interested in power and money.

    I don’t mind Churches dying out because they’ve basically destroyed their own religion themselves.

    Unfortunately, humans are a dumb species that rely heavily on wanting to believe in something so once this religion dies out another one will take its place and repeat the process. It’s been happening for thousands of years so I don’t think we’ll stop that tradition any time soon.






  • I respect Charlie Angus because he has made a career for speaking up for the little guy, the minority and especially Indigenous Canadians.

    He’s right on this point … any time a politician speaks, we have to hold them accountable for everything they say, suggest, imply or state outright. They don’t tease or speak off the cuff … everything they say is significant, even if it is from an idiot politician like Turnip.

    And we all have a responsibility to call them out on their statements at every instance. If we allow them to overstep once, then they’ll take a step further and if we allow that next step, they’ll take another step again and on and on.

    It’s the argument of the slippery slope … allow things to move a bit and its easy to stop … if you allow it to go on too much, too far and too fast … then it is far too difficult to stop.


  • Sign of things to come … I’m not bothering to read that stupidity.

    The next four years (and probably more beyond that) will just be never ending rage politics, nonsense, distraction, diversion and general stupidity while those in power get to do whatever they want in the background. There will be so much noise everywhere that very few if anyone will ever notice what is really happening in the country. Not notice of course until it’s too late and too far gone for anyone to be able to fix it.


  • At this point, I’m convinced it’s just a matter of regulating food

    Every major revolution in history was more or less sparked and accelerated because people were starving. And when you have the choice of starving to death or doing something, anything, then most people will opt for action rather than dying.

    So as long as you keep people fed … you can abuse them, manipulate them, treat them with no respect and take away everything from them and the majority of them won’t do a thing … take away their food however, and they’ll lash out like a wild animal.

    This also doesn’t mean that you keep people well fed … it just means keeping enough food in their grasp to keep them from revolting.
