@ocho,

Canada is liberal in the sense that they made gay marriage legal and made it illegal for churches to teach from the Bible about homosexuality.

Compared to Nigeria and Jamaica they seem to have the opposite opinion of homosexuality. It is interesting when you think that a pastors can be arrested for preaching from the Bible. I guess freedom of religion is not important in Canada.

Hmm, i haven't heard in Toronto where it's illegal to preach from d bible o, marra of fact, where do these nigerian churches preach from then? then again, i'm a catholic n we use d Missal, but d contents r from d bible....._{am i makin sense}

yea..canada is very liberal..everything is just legal in diz nation ooo..guess they don't want 2 hurt anny1's feelingz esp. since itz a multicultral nation

I would like to see some proof for the statement that it's illegal to preach from the Bible in Canada. This is highly unlikely and probably a misrepresentation of the facts in the same manner that it is illegal to pray in schools in the US.
Some Christians are really suffering from a persecution complex. Not being able to proselitise freely against people's wishes is very different from being persecuted.

@nferyn,
Canadian Court Rules Bible Verses Against Homosexuality Are ‘Hate’ Speech
Summary: A judge in Saskatchewan has ruled that a man who placed Bible verses about homosexuality in a newspaper ad was guilty of inciting hatred.

In a ruling that has received little media coverage, a judge on the Court of Queen’s Bench in Saskatchewan, Canada has ruled that a man who put Bible verses about homosexuality in a newspaper ad was guilty of inciting hatred against homosexuals.

The December 11, 2002 decision was in a response to an appeal by the Saskatchewan Human Rights Commission over an ad that Hugh Owens placed in a Canadian newspaper. Owens was ordered to pay $1,500 to three homosexuals over the ad.

According to LifeSiteNews, churches are not only admonished against recommending certain candidates or political parties, but they also face crackdowns for speaking out on issues such as abortion and same-sex marriage.

Correction ma dear friend..this is about Verses from d Bible, i don't see where it sayz that churches are not allowed to preach from d bible. n d only thing it sayz abt d church is that it's not allowed to speak on matters of abortion n politics(i think). so where r ya gettin ya news from?

LifeSiteNews is and outpost of the North American Christian Right, not exactly a neutral news source.

I am only sharing news I have read, seen and heard on the internet, TV and radio. I did not create them myself . Do your own search on line and you can find the news first hand.

That's exactly what I've done. I looked up your source and found it very biased. I would be very surprised if it were factually correct.
Going to a source such as LifeSiteNews for information on church-state separation is like going to the Ku-Klux-Klan for information on race relations.

@nferyn, I am trying to hold back from going Ghetto on your SORRY ASS! If I was not A Christian I would!!!!

I am a Christian first and a black woman and I am proud to be one. I agree with the news as it was reported by LifeSiteNews.

I know your your statement was meant be offensive!

I understand that as a liberal /atheist you believe you are superior to Christians!!!! But That is your problem and I refuse to make it mine. It is your life and your eternity !

Take your fight up to God because he created the rules in the Bible that Christians follow. Obviously you are offended by God!

Be man enough to do that. I am so through with your sorry self!!!!!!!!!

jclord:

@nferyn, I am trying to hold back from going Ghetto on your SORRY ASS! If I was not A Christian I would!!!!

I'm affraid that the fact that you are a Christian is causing your anger. Why do you have to be offended by people that have different beliefs?

jclord:

It's not about whether or not you believe in it, it's about whether or not it is factual and correct

jclord:

I know your your statement was meant be offensive!

It wasn't meant to be offensive at all. I was just using an analogy to make things clear, but as it offended you, I appologise for offending your sensibilities

jclord:

I don't believe anybody to be superior to anybody else, but I guess that feeling is not reciprocal. I have had to good fortune of not groing up in a theist environment and not being implanted unsupported ideas in my head at childhood. I feel sorry for those that did have to go through that

jclord:

Why on earth do you need to insult me? I have not insulted you.
I am as offended by God as I am offended by Santa Clause: not at all. Something imaginary cannot offend me

jclord, chill out aiite...Nferyn was just lookin through sources just to b sure, no harm intended!

Canada is one big empty land that is boring sometimes, its kind of a peaceful place stayed in Hamilton gone around ontario now in Halifax, Nova Scotia

Canada is one big empty land that is boring sometimes,

I'd so not argue with that.

i've been to canada , toronto, just for a week. visiting a family member
canada is alright though,

yah Toronto and only a week stay like 4 3months then u would see the true side of Canada, The problem is the weather it snows for like 7months in a year gets to -30 and below. What, thats one thing i no people cant get use to, u are only aware on how to dress so u dont freeze.

we have a really good weather diz year in Toronto ooooooo

For being in such a cold region, it's odd how TO has such a large Caribbean population. I can always remember seeing lots of Jamaicans, and other West Indians nearly everywhere.

yea, caribbeans are here and also ghanaians, u might even mistaken them or even with Nigerians since they all dress da same and act da same esp. blween ghanaians and jamo's, u should have come to Jane and Finch area and that is black community per se, I love TDOT

I think the Jamacans are scattered within that area because they are alot of them in hamilton, the crackhead city and what most of them do there is drugs.

thats is what they r known for all over the world .aka their bad reputation as we have our own 2

I stay in Manitoba and i know i've gone on and on about how unbearably cold it is here so i'll just spare your g.u.y.s another boring repitition.  I just have to say though,today is supposed to be the "official day" for the begining of spring but guess what our tempraure is at, -19⁰ and that's spring? Anyway sha, we(Manitobans) are survivours!

But you guys in Manitoba are trying ooo, know people there and they are always complaining about the weather.

2day is da 20th so tomorrow is the offical date for spring, us in toronto has been having good weather, infact our winter was spring and spring is now gonna be summer so i wonder how hot summer would be because now i open all da windows open but still
