At one point, he recorded the pastor he was staying with as "it's surprising -- here's one of the people that don't believe, and I'm not afraid to leave my children or my wife with him or anything!" (Paraphrase; it was a while back that I heard the story.) 'Pears that they think that anyone who's not one of them is a potential pedophile/rapist/angel of darkness. This guy seemed to think that it was better (as in, more polite) to not stand during the Buddhist prayers and go to the football game then to constantly turn down the invitations from his neighbours to go see some football. They must've thought that he was an elitist exclusionary tool... and they'd've been right. --\n-------------------------------------------------------------------\n* Jack Troughton jake at consultron.ca \n [link\|http://consultron.ca\|http://consultron.ca] [link\|irc://irc.ecomstation.ca\|irc://irc.ecomstation.ca] \n Kingston Ontario Canada [link\|news://news.consultron.ca\|news://news.consultron.ca] \n------------------------------------------------------------------- Edited by jake123 Sept. 5, 2006, 12:25:34 PM EDT Yep... didn't find this guy too impressive There was a story on CBC Radio One last year by a guy that went down to the SE to hang out with some of the evangelicals down there.

The(ir) "One True God[tm]" is the one source of morality. If you don't believe in Him (the right way and based on the right translation of what He said) then what restrains you from the most wicked acts of depravity? This suggests of course that if that person has a crisis of faith they will go all Lord of the Flies on you. === Purveyor of Doc Hope's [link\|http://DocHope.com\|fresh-baked dog biscuits and pet treats].
