He's my government and my protection and everything I need. I'm tired of hearing people who claim to be Christian be self-righteous like the above person was. Even though it was a joke, it's a rather disturbed joke, because that is what he must really thinks in his heart. At least my country has a chance to be righteous, but not that other country. I'm tired of hearing that from Americans. I have news for you. It is biblical not to owe any money, but how many people in America have bills in collections? 60, 70, 80 per cent? How many? If it was so Godly, why doesn't people obey that rule in the bible. Or are they always going to be the servants to the lenders who borrowed that money to them. Why do people not live up to it?

I do know poeple who pay on mortgages every month so they can own a house. Do you have issues with that or do you think we should go back to live in caves?

Condemned any homosexual actions lately, oh wait you live in Canada. nevermind. [quote]I'm tired of hearing that from Americans. I have news for you.

You can't get a car or buy a house without going into debt for pete's sake get over yourself. Edited August 8, 2008 by Justin86 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dominicansoul Posted August 8, 2008 Share Posted August 8, 2008 (edited) [quote]The Bible says pride cometh before a fall. With the economic recession you are facing right now, which also is spreading here in Canada, I think you should reconsider all of your Attitudes. Your country is not the country you think it is. It is corrupt and evil. You think that because Republicans say they are against Abortion and homosexual rights your nation is any more Godly than anybody else's. Well guess what, Conservatives in my nation say they're also against homosexual rights and abortion. And in both nations, nothing ever gets done about these. If you haven't already realized, it's a stupid carrot and the Donkey trick. They dangle that carrot in front of you so they can stay in power. You are blind, arrogant, and proud. And any other American who thinks the same is blind, arrogant, and proud. Stop being self-righteous, and start trusting in God and God alone. Your government isn't going to make your nation a godly nation, God is through you![/quote] WOW. Now, I don't know if you are Canadian. But by what you have just posted here, I can assume you are. I've met a total of seven Canadians in my whole life (in an American convent.) 6 out of the 7 said to me, almost verbatim, the exact same thing you wrote....! (And no, I didn't provoke them in any way.) I find this incredibly fantastic! At what age do you all learn to hate your neighbor to the South? Is this like in a Canadian nursery rhyme book? These same Canadians used to love it when Canadian holidays came up, because that gave them more opportunities to bash America and Americans. I also enjoyed their frank discussion on how we were to blame for the Canadian casualties of WWII (we entered the WAR way too late for their tastes) and for all the other problems that beset Canada that we are remotely involved in. So, it seems there's a lot of arrogance in almost every country in this world. America doesn't seem to be the leader in that area...

StColette Posted August 8, 2008 Share Posted August 8, 2008 I believe the entire argument is not worth going into, especially since the main issue seems to be with what Nihil said. And Nihil is a Canadian not an American. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Neither are more or less godly than the other. You guys only create that illusion in your head to justify your corruption right now, and it's coming down around you now.

cmotherofpirl Posted August 8, 2008 Share Posted August 8, 2008 Canada is actually a beautiful place, I spent every summer there for years and was an exchange student there.
