Golly, I’ve never seen that happen here!!!!! (Only all over the place, including my own neighborhood.) Do we still have phone booths in America—I thought they went out with the dark ages? And how about all those abandoned igloos in Canada?

Does being a Christian nation automatically makes one more intolerant? South Africa was and is a Christian nation. At one point they had apartheid and much violence and injustice. Then society changed radically and the people in power ushered in national reconciliation and forgiveness. Both were expressions of Christian heritage and thought.    My brother spent 5 years doing medical research in Boston and acquired a lot of American friends. They visit occasionally and here are just some samples of things that surprised them. - seeing children of various races playing together in school yards and playgrounds - the amount of mix couples - actual phone books in phone booths - very few ghettos and abandoned houses.   Does being a Christian nation automatically means we have a mindset that divides people into racial and economic categories? When I watch the Olympics, I see that the American team is one of the most racially mixed and that always makes me very happy. It is God's will that, as far as it is possible, we live at peace with one another.   Love,   Caroline   ----- Original Message ----- From: Terry Clifton To: TruthTalk@mail.innglory.org Sent: Monday, May 16, 2005 8:04 AM Subject: Re: [TruthTalk] TRUTH TALK Most Dangerous man in Canada   And I thought the USA was a Godless country.

Bill Whatcott CBC file photo In 2002, four people filed complaints against Bill Whatcott and a group called the Christian Truth Activists. They objected to pamphlets distributed in Regina and Saskatoon that referred to homosexual men as "sodomites" and called same-sex relationships "filthy". One of the flyers said: "Sodomites are 430 times more likely to acquire AIDS and three times more likely to sexually abuse children!" Brendan Wallace, one of the complainants, testified in 2002 he was angry and fearful as a result of receiving the material at his home.

Link will open in new window) "Initially he thought it was a personal attack on his partner and himself," the tribunal decision said. "He related some of his life experiences as a gay man and wondered how others would react, including members of his own family." Whatcott has been ordered to pay $17,500 to Wallace and the three other complainants for hurt feelings and loss of dignity and self-respect. And the tribunal has ruled that Whatcott and his group can no longer distribute material that promotes hatred against people because of their sexual orientation. On Thursday, Wallace said he was pleased the tribunal agreed spreading this kind of material is wrong, but he doubts Whatcott's group will stop. "Only two weeks ago, we received some similar hate mail distributed to our house from the same man and the same group," he said. Whatcott could not be reached for comment.     __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!? Tired of spam? Yahoo! Mail has the best spam protection around http://mail.yahoo.com
