Honoring Men: A Manifesto for Conscious Women - 0 views

  • I respect and honor you for providing strength, stability and protection for our well-being, generation after generation.
    • Gary Patton
       
      You're welcome!
  • Yet collectively, as conscious women, we can apologize, make new promises and recommit to respecting and honoring you.
  • I apologize for getting impregnated by the alpha bad boy and then, knowing he will not stick around to raise his progeny, lying to a nice, reliable beta provider about his paternity in order to get him to support me.

      The "Baby Mama" phenomenon, as Blacks in Toronto call it in some circles has become a major problem. It's used by some men to ehance their sex lives and by the Mamas to collect public welfare which is excessive and will endanger legitmae welfare use while producing more & more fatherless children and their associated personal & public problems.

  • I apologize for demanding that all the developed countries of the world spend far more on cures for women’s diseases, while practically ignoring diseases that strike and kill men at higher rates.
    • Gary Patton
       
      Well said and thanks! Most are not even aware of this issue, guys!!
  • I take responsibility for our epidemic of out of wedlock births.
    • Gary Patton
       
      I feel men & women must take equal responsibility for present day promiscuousness and the resultant emotional, mental & psychological pain, horrors (STDs) and wounding it has produced plus the travesty of the destruction of sacred life in the womb that has also resulted in the West.
  • I apologize for forgetting all the other times throughout history that men have sacrificed their lives for women.
    • Gary Patton
       
      No apology is needed for more often that not these have been God-inspired choices each man has made in individual circumstances with which he is confronted..
  • remaining silent regarding the common practice of circumcision
    • Gary Patton
       
      And who says that the two practises bear any similarity whatsoever. Female Genital Mutilation is a barbaric, disgusting & outrageous cultural/religious practise. Circumcision is a medically-proven health-promoting practise, especially in our promiscuous age.
  • eroding America’s freedom by pushing socialist policies that are bankrupting this country
    • Gary Patton
       
      Please note, John, that many of the so-called people-oriented, caring policies that you characterize as "socialistic" have NOT and are NOT bankrupting Canada. In fact, whose economic recovery is currently the strongest and fastest in the world in the summer of 2011. The U.S. problems are far more complex that you suggest using a simplistic word.
  • I apologize for contributing to a suffocating nanny state, complete with helmet laws and prohibitions on dodge ball, where everyone is a winner and has high self-esteem.
    • Gary Patton
       
      Come on guys! There are probably just as many men as women pushy these things ...especially among guilt-ridden Gen X over-reacting to protect their kids from things that generations of parents have lived with in freedom to make their own choices.
  • I apologize to little boys for subjecting them to a feminized education experience that impedes learning, denigrates men and drives them out of higher education.
    • Gary Patton
       
      Right on guys!
  • the long-standing practice of taking my word over one of your brothers,
    • Gary Patton
       
      I'm equally, if not more, concerned about the fundamentalist Islamic practises that subjugate women in far worse ways around the world that both men and women are passively supporting through their political correctness towards Islam that's NEVER been extended to any other religion.
  • using that legal system to create a police state built around a self-serving domestic violence industr
    • Gary Patton
       
      We've all allowed it and its a travesty of justice and social engineering by government & especially Judges.
  • not to confuse honoring women with denigrating men
  • Honoring Men: A Manifesto for Conscious Women

    An interesting article on male/female relationship issues by Mary Allen & John Cole.

Morality has no chance facing off against the Charter - 0 views

  • Morality has no chance facing off against the Charter
  • “The underlying premise — namely that all human beings are possessed of dignity in virtue of a special relationship to a God — is incapable of being used as a basis of public policy proven in the context of a democratic, multicultural and multi-faith society that must cleave to the strictures of public reason in ethical deliberation.”
  • It is to Trudeau and his Charter of Rights that we owe the almost complete transformation of Canada over three decades.

  • The battle over euthanasia will be lost for precisely the same reasons the battles were lost over abortion and over same sex marriage; namely Catholics and social conservatives fail to understand their adversary and where and how the battle is fought.
  • I call this the “majority myth.”
  • Polls once showed an overwhelming majority of Canadians opposed same-sex marriage. Same with abortion.
  • the legal battle over same-sex marriage existed because the Charter existed, no other reason.
  • Section 15, the Equality Rights section of the Charter, is the trigger that allowed Canadian courts to launch such a radical re-ordering of society. In fact, the Charter is a blueprint for constant social re-engineering by the courts, and it is invidious for that reason. It is the antithesis of democratic self-government.
  • This kind of “heavenly deception” (a technique pioneered by the Moonies) is not only dishonest, it is on loan from the very totalitarian impulses that Canadians  should naturally oppose.
  • You may be sure that judges are not about to relinquish that power. The unavoidable reality is that Canada is now governed not by elected MPs but by appointed judges. And they are almost invariably liberal in their ideology.
  • Such judges see nothing wrong with courts legislating a liberal agenda that is (legislatively speaking) unpopular.
  • Any campaign that ignores this is simply delusional.
  • Alas, the Charter is not subject to referendum. If 90 per cent of Canadians had voted against gay marriage, it would have made no difference because so-called “fundamental rights” are not subject to voter preference.
  • What almost everyone avoided in the same-sex marriage campaign was the only viable solution. It’s a solution that exists in the Charter itself — Section 33, the “notwithstanding” clause.
  • the Liberal Party has promised never to invoke s. 33. And Harper’s Conservatives have never done so. Thus was the battle lost.
