There is no I in Team.


ODSP vs Ontario Works

My issue has never been with those who can't work; it is with those who won't work.  They have earned my contempt.

Welfare is a sin and anyone unwilling to work should not eat.

2 Thessalonians 3:7-13New Revised Standard Version (NRSV)

For you yourselves know how you ought to imitate us; we were not idle when we were with you, and we did not eat anyone’s bread without paying for it; but with toil and labor we worked night and day, so that we might not burden any of you. This was not because we do not have that right, but in order to give you an example to imitate. 10 For even when we were with you, we gave you this command: Anyone unwilling to work should not eat. 11 For we hear that some of you are living in idleness, mere busybodies, not doing any work. 12 Now such persons we command and exhort in the Lord Jesus Christ to do their work quietly and to earn their own living. 13 Brothers and sisters,[a] do not be weary in doing what is right.

Ancient Rome

Why did Rome decay from the inside?  Well, our federal government wants to make us even more of a welfare state.  Those who work for a living are supporting those who vote for a living.  Is is stupid to work hard?  I don't know anymore.

Lotto Tickets

Cindy says she hates lotto tickets because they're a waste of money.  I buy them once in a while.  It's fun to imagine what I'd do with the winnings.  But, for many, there's evil in gambling.  And, I won't tell them different.  If you've been reading my blog, you know why.  So, why do I buy them?  Well, for me the evil is to put your trust in anything but God.  And, I'm not counting on a win to change my life or putting my hopes in winning.  It's fun to think about, but it is entertainment.  The truth is that I've already won the lotto, beaten the odds.  I have a nice home, a good paying job, am in good health, have my parents with me still, have a loving wife, want for nothing, have a smart and healthy daughter, and have many more blessings.  God has blessed me greatly and to Him go all the thanks.  For, I do not deserve all these blessings.  Many have less, suffer, and go hungry.  So, the lotto has already been won, so to speak.  Thanks be to God Almighty.

The Last Post

Sorry guys.  The last post was sitting in my draft box, probably for years.  It is a quite lengthy Facebook posting from a past attempt to save my political & religious comments and preserve them in my blog.  It did remind me of an unfortunate old conflict though.  The funny thing is, I was looking for this very text on Facebook for days to cite the text in a subsequent argument.  I couldn't find it.  I searched and searched.  Ironically, coincidentally, or divinely, I find it now after the person has deleted me from their friend list.  Tragically, the person couldn't live with my point of view.  I must admit my fault of very much wanting to do the same.

I read it again, and it got me thinking.  I've often been confused by the vehement opposition many Atheists have to Church.  I assume it's a learned behavior, or that there is some trauma in their history.  When they lash out, what to do?  Could I have handled it differently?  Probably.  Should I have?  In retrospect, it seems so.  In the face of an affront that intends to destroy faith, it's difficult for one who loves God to not react emotionally.  But, is it the best way to minister to others, to carry forth the Gospel?  Probably not.  It is a very difficult challenge to minister to the hurting, the reluctant, those who find it repugnant, one we are not adequately prepared for.  God said that he would give those who were called the words that they would speak, and I'm sure He still does so.  And, maybe we're not supposed to convert or win people back on the spot and rather plant the seed that will grow and begin their journey.  God will do the work, make the change.  Maybe by our witness, we sow the seed or turn people away by our behavior.  I'm not speaking of hypocrisy, as hypocrisy abounds everywhere.  I've posted many times about how the unChurched perceive Christians.  They truth is that nobody is perfect, and that includes Christians who profess high standards that even they can not attain but rather aspire to.  It is a goal, a model, and a struggle. 

FATHER, strengthen and guide me.  I ask this in Jesus' name.  Amen.

On the other hand, you have five fingers.... I mean, on the other hand, lots of my Christian friends won't accept the idea the God used evolution. They also push one vs. the other. I don't see a conflict.


William Ramier commented on a link.
I don't know about that, but it's a thought. It's been my experience that Darwinists push the idea that it has to be one or the other, and logically if it's evolution then there is no God.


William Ramier commented on a link.
What I can't stand is how he pushed a petition in the UK to have parents who taught their children Christian teachings loose custody of those children for child abuse, arguing that religion was harmful to their mental development and limited (damaged them) them in life.

You would not have to take MRE under "my" system. And, I disagree with what you think is needed and what you say.

William Ramier commented on his own link.
If I prayed to Jesus in a mosque during an active Muslim service, I would be disrupting their worship. If we changed every worship service, every religion, it would cease to be; those of that faith would loose their faith, and would not be free. The holy places of each faith are where people gather to practice a specific faith, to worship, to teach, and to help each other. It should not, however, be confined to these spaces. There are already places of interfaith worship and multi-faith prayer rooms. I respect a Jewish or Muslim person's right to worship in their holy places without my interference, just as I hope they respect me and allow me to worship unmolested in my Church.


William Ramier commented on his own link.
Didn't you say that a Church was not a public place? Freedom of religion would not permit me to pray to Jesus in a mosque. That's Muslims' place of worship--a holly place for them, and I respect that. I have no issue with Islam being practiced in public though.


William Ramier commented on his own link.
Why are you so vehemently opposed? We should all be free.


William Ramier commented on his own link.
They can set up candles for Hanukkah and crescent moons too. I don't mind. We are supposed to be a mosaic society, not one of censorship. A Christmas Tree's presence is not imposing anything. It's public worship, something we're supposed to be free to engage in.


William Ramier commented on his own link.
But, when Christmas Trees are removed from public buildings, when public worship is restricted, when faith is restricted in schools, we are not free.


William Ramier commented on his own link.
Freedom of religion, as a constitutional right, does not just include in the Church and the home.


William Ramier commented on his own link.

Thanks Ed. :(

When I went to school, public school in Quebec, we had religious instruction. I'd like to see it return to the public school system. We had different classes for different faiths. I think it worked well. It taught students who whey were by where they came from. It helped to carry faith and culture forward. It was taught alongside English, math, science, and French. I think it was a system that worked well.

I have no problem with Islam being taught under this system. I would like to see all faiths free in society. That's what I want. I hope we achieve it before things get worse.


William Ramier commented on his own link.
Freedom of religion is the issue of the meme. The brainwashing is that religion and science are enemies. The brainwashing is that religion is harmful.

I have been know to meditate, sometimes using Anglican prayer beads (much like a Catholic rosary). It's not that common a practice; many Christians feel that meditation/using prayer beads is not okay (and that's okay too). I believe the Desert Fathers meditated, and it was practiced and modified by many Christian religious orders over the centuries. There are a few Anglican orders here in Canada, if I may plug them:

On the surface level, Liberalism seems like a great idea. 
Keep up with the times, everyone pays their fair share, everyone is taken care of, everyone is tolerant, no wars...etc. 

If only that were the case, right? 
Truth is, Liberalism is far different. I know they aren't all like this, but the ones I've seen are some of the most fowl-mouthed, immature, stubborn people you'll ever come across. 
Rare is it that I can debate them without being called names, and usually those names are sexual. 
They love to bring up racism, proving that they are the racists. 
They love to protest and ban things they don't agree with. So much for tolerance, eh? 
No wars? Get real. I don't like wars either, but I know that humanity will always be at war. Besides, their president is more of a war-monger than Bush ever was. And in Canada, it was the Liberal government who sent our troops to the middle east, not the Conservatives. 

If this is not how Liberalism is supposed to be, they haven't shown me otherwise.

There's a huge difference between Classic Liberalism (what liberals think they are) and modern liberalism (big government, censorship, anti tolerance, over regulation, big brother, over spending, hand outs, over taxing, anti military, etc...); modern liberalism

Party politics? That's party business. The party whip has to keep them in line. The party leader was elected by the party members, knowing their policy.

In Jeffersonian democracy, there would be no parties. But, because we can't all agree, we associate with like minded people. Parties form.

That one writer made a good point about amnesty for illegal aliens. Maybe he's pushing it so hard because he's trying to protect himself. I don't care if he's American or African personally; however, there's a law that says the President has to be American born. Or, am I wrong?

I think Voltaire said it best when he said that he disagreed with what they were saying but that he would fight to the death for their right to say it.

The left has become so unpalatable to me (polarization and personal attacks) that I am turned off by left environmentalism.


William Ramier commented on his own link.
Did you ever hear Preston Manning's speech on Green Conservatism? It's been written off by the left vote buying, a farce, and noneffective. I see it as another avenue.


William Ramier commented on his own link.
I'm sorry if I have offended you Ed. I'm just trying to advocate for the right. We need a voice too.

Does that make me sexist/racist. I've been told it does. I've been told I am. I've been told that "democratic socialism" is the only true way, and that if I'm against it then I am unCanadian.

William Ramier commented on his own link.
I'm not advocating racism or censorship. I'm advocating conservatism and individual freedom.


William Ramier commented on his own link.
When people speak out strongly in support of conservatism, they are a Nazi.


William Ramier commented on his own link.
I bit my tongue for a long long time Ed. And, people walked all over me and my ideas, assuming I was liberal, never considering that they were offending me or that I might think different than they do. I got sick of it. Again, we have the polarization. People mistook my silence for lack of opposition. Also, conservatives are shamed into being quiet. They are told they are wrong and stupid, everywhere. It gnaws away at you.


William Ramier commented on his own link.
To say he is wrong is not to say he is an idiot. And, I thought I've been careful about that.


William Ramier commented on his own link.
How does somebody who is anti democrat, for instance, express the opinion that the President is the wrong person for the job, is leading people down the wrong road?


William Ramier commented on his own link.
I will endeavor to be more careful and thoughtful when I post. But, how do you separate the politician from the politics?


William Ramier commented on his own link.
Getting rid of Muslims for being different is no better than making the Jews wear a star.


William Ramier commented on his own link.
I try not to post intolerant posts. Some sites want the Muslims gone from North America. I have made my opposition know on those sites. I don't like liberal policy. I don't hide that anymore. But, I try to be tolerant. I also try to speak for conservatism. They clash; however, I want to promote individual freedom and support freedom of religion and culture and expression.


William Ramier commented on his own link.
If Jewish people want a menorah there or Muslims want a crescent moon, I have no problem with that.

Tolerance is not exclusion or censorship.


William Ramier commented on his own link.
It is thought by many that liberalism leads the way in fighting for tolerance. I don't want tolerance to become simply being liberal.


William Ramier commented on his own link.
Studies have shown that we are not receptive to foreign ideas. We subconsciously surround ourselves with those who think like we think. The longer we live, the more we advocate that way of thinking and close ourselves off to different ways of thinking.

William Ramier commented on his own link.
I disagree. I think conservatism is the best way forward. Terrorism is not the answer. Democracy and education are the way forward.


William Ramier commented on his own link.
That is what science is supposed to do. I have observed that some set out with a goal and try to find evidence to prove it (whatever their goal is--religious, environmental, political, etc).

Also, I'm not a big fan of environmental extremists limiting our freedoms. And, I really don't like terrorists, a lot.

There are global patterns of cold and warming, through out the ages. They can see it in the ice core samples.

I think people should have the freedom to express thoughts.


William Ramier commented on his own link.
I think conservatism another way forward, a better way.


William Ramier commented on his own link.
I thing conservatives are under attack by the main stream media, ridiculed, labeled as narrow minded, stupid, unintelligent, and bigoted, thought to be xenophobic and hate filled, caring no more for their fellow man than a dog, not enough to spend one cent on the poor or suffering, thought to advocate for totalitarianism, called Nazis, hated and bombarded with vehement words and speech. Liberalism is taught, not as a way forward, but as the only correct way forward.

Lowering the Corporate tax rate has cost Canada $53 Billion in lost revenue so far.  Zero jobs to show for it.  Corporations in Canada are currently hoarding record cash reserves and NOT reinvesting into our economy.  They used to in the 60's and 70's... not anymore: http://youtu.be/dYro5JUI1EU

How many people do you know who don't work for a company? What is the percentage? Most of us are employed by businesses. They allow us to pay our mortgages and buy our cars. The less tax they pay, the more profitable they are, the bigger they get. The bigger they get, the more people they employ, the more people buy houses and cars and food and clothes. Our retirement savings are often investments in these very corporations through stocks, bonds, mutual funds, etc... We own those very corporations. Corporations are easy targets. Taxing them makes them far less effective as a vehicle to our affluence.

I don't have a problem with Joe (I mean akbar) Muslim. It's extremists that are dangerous. Unfortunately, you can't tell them apart (which makes us vulnerable); and, we live in a world that breads extremists. As a Christian, I believe that their faith is wrong. As a conservative libitarian who values individual rights for all vs. minority rights, I believe they have the right to worship whatever way they want. Is it right to tell a citizen they can't be Muslim? We need to invest more resources in finding out which ones are the extremists. Find the bad ones. I don't want to throw the baby out with the bathwater.

Part of the problem is that people don't vote. When I worked in a union shop, we had about 400 employees. About 25 would show up for a union meeting. If you don't want money spent on things you don't agree with, get out and vote.
