Good morning sweet soo!
I rarely do this but since a new pope takes over I will disclose a small bit of my frustration with the catholic denomination. I tried to make it work I really tried. Studied the bible till I was blue in the faith and (no my boomerang never came back) focused on the new testament. you know the opening line "I have come to show you a better way" My criticism is not with the teachings of the "man christ" but how the Vatican applies those teachings to themselves. They don't - They have both feet planted firmly in this world and operate based on increasing the three "P's" Power, Possession and Prestige." The exact opposite of the teachings, of the christ. So if I was ever to go back they would have cleaned house of all the damage thru sexual abuse thats been perpetrated on our children made amends. Sell off all their priceless palace riches and the palace itself. Take the proceeds and feed the poor. Treat all as equals, no exclusions (especially women). Throw out celibacy. If you want to know why your churches are empty in the north america, people now think for themselves and the catholic church is so unplugged and irrelevant to the ordinary lay person it does not meet their spiritual needs.
Look at your new young priests! Social misfits who can't make it anywhere else. give me a call when you get that straightened out.

Skipper the Church (any denomination) is simply like man himself (herself) full of flaws and also sin. I don't suggest anyone ignore that part of it but there is good in everything. One has to have faith and do the best they can in the alloted time. Be aware of the sin and do ones best to avoid being dragged down by it. If we let the sinfull side of things that happen in and around the Church break us away from all the good then we are the losers. I'm likely the last guy to preach but that's the way I see it. Have a great day all

Grace,
I'm with Trudeau to a certain extent on that point. If I were in the position and wanted to destroy/abolish the Senate, I would choose a bunch of imbeciles to sit on said board, like Harper did. I would then just sit back and watch it implode. Public opinion has now hit a new low with the shenanigans of Senators. It would be a simple achievement for the PM to eradicate, if not just reform the senate now.
The question is this: is Harper smart enough to set the stage the way he has. There is no shortage of imbeciles surrounding him, mostly conservative, but not all. Was it premeditated or did he just by chance choose scoundrels.
Like Rick Mercer said. 'I guess there are no honest people left in PEI who Harper could find to take the position. Bur blaming Mike Duffy for abusing the senate is like blaming a horse for taking a whiz in the street.'

Oh, Trudeau didn't buy into Ron Reagan and, like his liberal protege, Jean Chretien, likely wouldn't have bought into Dubya and his band of merry war mongers.
BTW, did others pick up on the fact that Chretien was at Chavez's funeral. Good for him and for Canada. A country doesn't build bridges by snubbing world leaders.

Putting Canadians lives at risk: government cuts to food inspection
The Conservative government has cut $56 million from the budget of the Canadian Food Inspection Agency (CFIA), meaning that there are now fewer food safety inspectors checking Canadians' food for contamination and other hazards.
Based on projections presented by the CFIA in its Reports on Plans and Priorities for 2012-2013, over 300 full-time equivalent jobs will be cut by 2015, including 100 inspectors who have already been laid off.

The money the feds have spent in Afghanistan alone on security for the dam project there = 1.65 billion in 10 years from 2001-2011 and more to be spent.

Here's one to ponder.
The US Senate Legislation Committee chaired by Senator Feinstein voted to move forward with legislation once again limiting the sale of automatic weapons.The committee members again voted along party lines - the Republicans against it and the Democrats - some reluctantly - voted for it.
Now it will go before Congress and watch the GOP controlled House vote no and the Dems vote yes.
In spite of clear polls showing the majority of Americans favor tougher gun laws and after losing two presidential elections the Republicans will continue to give into the NRA fools and wonder why they can't win elections.
In the meantime cities will continue to be war zones and schools shooting galleries for the wackos.
Perhaps instead of swearing to uphold the Constitution against all enemies 'both foreign and domestic' they should swear to uphold it against all enemies 'both real and imagined'.

While I will agree with you 100% that no-one needs a fully automatic gun of any discription, you know full well that the "gun culture" of the U S will always try and stop any infringment of those "rights". Now laws are all well and good, and we have fairly stringent rules regarding what are "restricted and prohibited" weapons, but you more than likely read this about an ex R C M P officer who had stuff that required bomb disposal folks to come and remove his "cache", plus machine guns and loads of ammo.

We all know how well the media inflates those stories.
You rarely hear the other side.
How about you explain your point of view to this person.

In all seriousness...there is a middle ground.
You break into my house, threaten me or my family and I'll put you right in the middle of the ground.
I know...it means nothing when you live in a place where that fear is not real.

Hi there Flyhawk and Grump, flattery will go a long way. LOL
Poor Grump is taking a beating from rw and Voice. Those guys are something else. I wonder if they ever stop to hear themselves. They're trying to rattle your chains Grump but...... you seem able to hold your own.

hmmmmmm, well now, if you hadn't gone and gotten every one all p'sd off, and acting like a bunch of bully brats.
I don't think either one you would have such a fear that someone would want to seriously hurt either one of you ........ do you ?
What happened to have to arm yourself to the teeth and have a fear of something bad happening ?
And especially to have a ccw..... just what business are you in voice......... you said pharma, oh crap..........you're a supplier aren't you ? I knew you'd lead us to what you really are !

Pretty ridiculous huh ! About as stupid as the comments you've been making today.
As far as a ccw permit......I'm thinking you must attend at the Rod and Gun Club and that permit allows you to transport that gun for an hour , to the club, and you get an hour after you leave the club to get it home.
Unless, you are ssmps, opp, you wouldn't be able to take that gun anywhere with you.

you say I am wrong. This merely proves your igniorance of a subject you should be on top of.
Here is a quote from the University of Florida:
"Designed for working pharmacists, the flexible Working Professional Doctor of Pharmacy program will allow you to complete your Pharm.D. requirements in as few as three years while you work so you can maintain your work, family, and personal obligations."
You , of course, had been talking about 4 years after some Mickey Mouse 2 year diploma.
I had said 3 years after a Bph or whatever the Bachelor of Pharmacy is. You see, In Canada we don't have Associate degrees ..only real ones.
Do you demand that those about you call you Doctor? I know what I would call you.

I actually have a BSc in chemistry as well redranger, but what's your point?
Also, I don't know how many times I have to state that I do not even live or work in Canada.

Also, as far as the "mickey mouse" degree goes, why don't you look up the prerequisites for any Pharmacy program in the States. I'm sure there's nothing Disney-ish about it.
The University of Toronto TRIED to get certified for a 4 year Pharm.D program. They failed several times. The USA leads Pharmacy for a reason. Globally, Canadian degrees are about as good as an A+ on a finger painting in JK.

You may carry on with your bull...you have lost my interest. You simply don't know what you talking about. Why did you not even concede that you were wrong when I proved it to you. You went off on a different tack. Go play with your mortar and pestle and let the intelligent Canadians have a meaningful discourse.

From Grump to V o R;
"Then again you are likely one of those boys who just wants to sleep with your big gun."
Actually, sleeping with your big gun is a really effective hunting technique. I bagged two moose from my stand that way. My brothers still refer to the 'incidents' as the hunting accidents of '89 and '91. Pure jealousy as they are are the ones that taught me their entirely, time tested and successful 'technique'. :)

I cave Sparks. My gut gurgling that day certainly delayed our success by about seven days in '88 by my recollection. Crap. But we all still enjoyed many naps, reading westerns, whilst in the company of our respective big gun on our respective stands in the interim. Success again, and so much fun.
