  North America’s Moral and Spiritual Crisis –Part 3

  March 19, 2013 / All Social Media, Online, Politics, Thought Casts, Trending Topics, Water Cooler Talk

  Here is part three of an interview I did years ago. It is amazing how relevant this interview is for today.
  You would think we would have learned some things from our past failures. It seems like we have just invented new ways to fail. The moral climate in North America has dropped to an all time low. The riots a couple of years ago in Vancouver uncovered the dark side of a lot of people who you would never think would take part in such crimes. We have seen the same in Toronto and Montreal.

  Bono’s message to church leaders–2

  March 5, 2013 / Opinionators, Social Good, Top Stories, Water Cooler Talk

  This is part two of an interview with Bono of U2 fame. It is refreshing to hear someone who speaks his mind but does so with humility. The Church today is trying hard to relate to the world. They have cookie cutter services designed to not offend or make anyone uncomfortable. Well the message of Christianity is radical. It is a call to social justice and it challenges people to reach out in tangible ways to the homeless, the widow, the orphans, the hungry and the outcast of society. The bible says, love your enemies, forgive those who mistreat you.

  A Culture Of Violence Verses A Culture of Success.

  January 3, 2013 / All News & World, I THiNK, Lifestyle, News & World, Water Cooler Talk

  I have been advocating for a long time about discussing gun control. On one hand people feel threatened by the word control and on the other people say do away with guns all together. I think Bob Costas, Charles Barkley and John Mcenroe make some very good points. Charles feels safer with a gun, John feels safer without a gun and Bob Costas talks about the gun culture in America. I believe Costas talks about the heart of the matter

  Nina Grewal A Merry Christmas

  December 13, 2012 / Events, Holidays, I THiNK, News & World, Politics, Social Media, Think Global, Thought Casts, Water Cooler Talk

  Nina Grewal is a Sikh and she loves Christmas. She has no problem wishing people a Merry Christmas. Sometimes political correctness is anything but correct. What makes Canada a great country is that we can celebrate our various religious holidays. The bah humbug folks who are disturbed because of Nativity scenes on public property or the singing of traditional songs during Christmas are simply disturbe

  Well I’ll be doggone!

  December 10, 2012 / Entertainment, Funny, I THiNK, Inspirational, News & World, Water Cooler Talk

  The idea of teaching dogs to drive seems like a good one to me. Just think of the advantages on a long trip, you would have one more driver to share the load. The other thing is they are safer drivers than most of the people we encounter on the roadways.

  The high cost of freedom….Thank You

  November 11, 2012 / All News & World, Events, Holidays, I THiNK, News & World, Opinionators, Top Stories

  I hate war. I respect and honour the man and women who fought for freedom and defended our country. The problem with war is that so many great men and women give their lives fighting in them. My father and my brother both served in the military. My father paid a dear price for his service. He had the worst job in the military. He was a chaplain and served on the front lines. He had to communicate with the families that they lost a loved one in battle.
