Those are NOT religious rights! Unless Canada has a King James version different from ours...?
Tell that to the left-wing activist groups...
I think it is more sinister than that. The left wants christians to have NO voice.
The left is basically establishing atheism as the official state religion. The author is basically going with the proposition that religion is the opiate of the masses.
It is also based on the assumption that the majority is NOT christian.
That is correct. They want government funded by the ACLU and other radical groups.
I wonder how many of the pro-homosexual "marriage" wackos are also the same people who used to believe overpopulation would have overwhelmed and destroyed the world in 2000.
(also nobody mentions world hunger anymore since there IS enough food produced to feed the world, the ONLY reason for starvation in pockets of the world is strict politics. Food as a weapon of tyrany.)
So, now they can't read? Or won't?
Correct.
What's shocking is this uproar is all about 8 electoral districts (out of 308) being reported to be bought by the Religious Right, when they were all DEMOCRATICALLY ELECTED by the people in each district to run for the Conservative Party nomination. (There are definitely more districts that have strong so-cons running but these are all that are reported)
More and more, going around with blinders on, eh? What's the use in that? The logical end is to become a street person and wander around with tin foil on your head, talking to yourself in your own perfect little world.
["you" here is the hypothetical, not referring to you, Heartofsong83!]
Only A Canadian could think that CPB was important.
Be afraid, Frances, be VERY afraid!
"Unless aware Americans act soon, the U.S. risks becoming a right-wing Christian theocracy along the lines of the fundamentalist Islamic states it most fears."
OK, that wins a Twilight Zone Award for delusional paranoia and shrill liberal insanity.
Make sure you add Paul Martin and Jean Chretien to the Twilight Zone graphic!
Perhaps trading cards with career stats are in order.
I'm surpised they left out the part where students will be required to assent to the flat earth theory in American schools. [irony]

Red Tories ARE Liberals. They just want any trace of conservatism off the table.
"What worries a clear majority of Canadians is a peculiarly American strain of Christianity that clamours for its own religious freedom and rights, but squelches them for others."
It is slander ... Freep the author folks.
Let me guess: the guy who wrote this wants to marry his boyfriend.
I stand corrected then. The womyn who wrote this wants to marry her womyn-companion-lover-bitch-mate.
