"Greetings from vacation
in Canada"
Hello to all Doves from Canada. Am vacationing
in beautiful Vancouver Island 30 km. north of Victoria. What a beautiful
country, what a peaceful laid-back civiliized place. Best of all,
temp in the summer is in 70's. in stark contrast to Ariaona 110 temps.
But I am sort of chagrined by the cultural ignoring of
God and Christ up in in the popular media here. On the TV channels
routinely available, not one is a religious or Christian channel.
On Sundays, not one worship program anywhere. Except if you use the
Direct TV satellite system where you can then access United States
Christan programs.
The news casts are especially slanted and left-winged.
That the United States' presence in Iraq is wrong is an absolute given
up here. The vote controversy on marriage amendment in the United
States was reported as if there were still backward elements of bigoted
holdouts still opposing the march of progress.
Very infuriating. I don't see how Canadian Christians
stand it.
