I think the nutcases you have to worry about are those who hold the reins of political power but don't respect the fundamental rights of the people they rule over. Religious or atheist can be dangerous. In Iran you had the Ayatollah. How many people did they execute in the 1979 Islamic revolution and afterward? How many infidels were killed in the last 1400 years across the Arab world? How many people did the non-religious tyrants Hitler, Stalin, Mao, and Pol Pot kill in the 20th century? How many people did the tribal dictators in Africa kill in the genocides, like Rwanda? Tyrants can be driven by some kind of false religious fervour or be atheists. It has nothing to do with christianity. But some like to lump christians in with any kind of religious extremists, which shows they don't understand christian teachings at all. But it gives them a feeling of superiority in their atheism.

First you would have to eradicate 90% of the world's population. Hitler, Stalin and Chairman Mao made a serious attempt at eradicating all opponents, but in the end, it made no difference. Their ilk ended up in the grave sooner or later, and their legacy as tyrants is established.

Actually liberals and lefties are trying to change Canada to suit foreigners. That is one of Trudeau's main goals. Some of the immigrants bring a militant religion to Canada and do in fact demand that accommodations be made for them. My comment saying Judeo-Christian culture should a basis for immigration also includes western culture and practices such as western respect for human rights, women, our parliamentary system of democracy, basic freedoms such as freedom of speech, freedom of religion. Using the term Judeio-Christian culture does not imply everyone has to be Jewish or Christian. That's where you err. It is a general term to differentiate the west from eastern cultures such as in the middle east, India, Asia, or Africa. It has been the founding culture in North America for 500 years. Liberals want to erase that history and claim we are an amalgamation of all religions and cultures from every corner of the world, probably in order to grab votes. The term is simply a way of describing the historic reality of the dominant founding Canadian or American culture. If you want to deny that and say that history doesn't count, then you are denying everything we have such as our judicial system, parliamentary system, basic human values because all these things are different in Asia, Africa, and the middle east. I prefer to defend our way of life and not be forced to change to accommodate those who won't accept it.

Since you constantly accuse westerners of genocide, who would ever take you seriously on the subject of Canadian immigration? I have never had anything to do with geneocide and don't know anyone who has. So what's the point of harassing everyone about it? What could you possibly say about immigration since that is the subject, not genocide?

Of course an Israel Jew would be welcome. They come from the same Judeo-Christian or western cultural background. Non-Europeans from certain other places such as the U.S., Australia, New Zealand would fit into our culture as well. The point was well made by a recent poster. What is wrong with trying to keep Canada as a majority Judeo-Christian caucasian people? As he aptly said, other countries protect their own religions and cultures. Why shouldn't Canadians be able to do the same thing?

OK so you define yourself as a globalist and believe everyone from anywhere in the rest of the world has the right to immigrate to Canada. You believe in open borders and Canada has no rights as a sovereign nation to decide who comes in.

I am not talking about people who are already here. Immigration policy is a legitimate issue for discussion except with leftists who want to impose their way on everyone else and shut down debate. Liberals and leftists are natural totalitarian authoritarians who would outlaw freedom of speech.

So I guess you believe in open borders and allow anyone in no matter what it does to our civilization? Most countries restrict who gets into their country in order to protect the country, but you wouldn't. Interesting. Many of those people walking across the border from the U.S. in Manitoba might have criminal records. You ok with that?

No. Never said anything like that. I'm not responsible for what posters say. I've never heard anything like that anyway. You're trying to create something.

I am not Jewish but see Jews as good Canadian citizens. They are part of our Judeo-Christian heritage.

Discrimination on immigration policy is necessary for a country to defend it's historic culture. Many countries do this. It is not racist. It is common sense to only have immigration that is going to protect one's culture and civilization.

Yes, because of your multicultural situation and being atheists, you will likely not be much use in defending our historic Judeo-Christian civilization from the threat of Islamization. The issue is not about a group of people who are assimilating and getting along with each other. That is not the real problem . The problem is the third world immigrants who bring a hostile religion and demand to change our culture to accommodate themselves and their religion.

The Government and Immigration department has the right to make that choice. There are some laws that come into play.

OK. I think there are scientists who reject the theory of evolution as well.

Our western Judeo-Christian civilization is threatened by bringing in people from third world countries who have a hostile religion and culture and do not fit in with us.

Are you from Brazil? LOL What you believe in is called multicultural marxism. It would never work for a variety of reasons. Multiculturalism has already proven to be a failure. European immigrants blend in and accept Canadian culture because they come from the same cultural/religious background. Other reliigious groups do not blend in but seem to want to form their own enclaves. They do not accept Canadian culture very well. They want to advance their own religion. So you idea is a non-starter. You obvously haven't done any research or given it any serious consideration.

Trudeau seems to be obsessed with bringing in Syrian Muslim refugees. How many of these people are even employable? Many people raised in the middle east are taught to hate westerners and non-muslims. That's what the Quran teaches. They don't speak English and many probably have no employable skills. The CBC News channel is trying to bolster Muslim immigration by running short ads now extolling the virtues of diversity, particularily Muslim immigration. I saw them in the last couple of days. One featured Mayor Nenshi from Calgary. Saskatchewan needed carpenters for construction sites in Regina and other places so they went to Ireland and hired tradesmen and carpenters to work in Saskatchewan. That's is the best solution. That's what other provinces should be doing.

The caucasian race in Canada is threatened with extinction because of the present decline in the birth rate of caucasians. It might be irreversible. The only hope I think is to bring in only immigrants from Europe, Australia, New Zealand, and the U.S. We could also put a stop to abortion which is killing off caucasians in Canada. That would be a partial solution because it might save close to 100,000 babies a year. But it is not the main solution. Without caucasian immigration in large numbers, Canada is on a downward spiral. I'm not sure what statistics you are looking at. But projections are for huge increases in old people in Canada. Who is going to pay for the health care and old age homes, etc?

Yes, there is a video on The Rebel Media dot com with Faith Goldy where she actually went to the border in Manitoba to see first hand the migrants coming across the border. The RCMP has stopped reporting on the numbers crossing every day. There appears to be an organized smuggling operation going on with taxi drivers bringing people to the border. Most of them are single men, strong and able. One man she talked to came from Iritrea and was in the army there and there was no war going on. Not sure why he came to Canada. But any migrant in the U.S. with a criminal record or past is going to come across because he has a good chance of being deported by the U.S.

You seem to be making up a number of assumptions with no proof or evidence. Yes there are many different religions in the world. Of course each believer thinks his or her religion is the true one and all others are false. There are many different denominations calling themselves christian. I believe many of them probably are christian. But there are others which are not biblical and would fall under the category of cults. You make the assumption that christians disbelieve in science. This is not correct. I can't really speak for other people so I will limit my answer to my own view. I had a great interest in science when I was a kid and had my own chemistry lab at home. I believe in true science, not fake science. Of course the big debate is about evolution versus creation. I don't think evolution is supported by science. Also I am not convinced man-made global warming is proven. I believe in climate change. There has always been climate change, but not man-made climate change. Anti-vaccination people are not restricted to certain christians. I know there are some christians who don't believe in it, but I think the great majority are not anti-vaccination. There are a lot of vegans or vegetarians who are anti-vaccination but who are not christians. You also err in saying christians think the planet is disposable. I have talked to christians for decades and have never met one christian who believes that. I think you made that one up on the fly. Christians believe in responsible use of the creation that God has given us. But they don't support environmental fanaticism, which we see a lot of these days. Those people have their own religion, worshipping mother earth.

I noticed something very unusual on the CBC News channel the last couple of days. Yesterday and today they broadcast a short ad promoting diversity/multiculturalism. Today it was on about 4:47PM and was the Mayor of Calgary, Nenshi, talking about diversity. I wondered who is running and paying for this ad. Seems very strange. Wonder if this part of the work of the committee directed to deal with Islamophobia. Perhaps we will see educational ads to teach Canadians about diversity.

It is an established fact that Canada has an aging population. The only way Canada can continue to provide a decent health care system and Old Age Pensions to the increasing number of seniors is if we have significant immigration which will contribute to the tax base, not drain the system. However, this immigration should come from Europe because that is where culture most closely matches the Judeo-Christian culture which built Canada.

The Council of European Canadians has a great article called "Islamization of Canada - Without a Counter Reaction" - by Peter Goodchild For those who are concerned about the future of Canada with regard to immigration, this organization seems well worth consideration. http://www.eurocanadian.ca/2017/04/islamization-of-canada-without-a-counter-reaction.html#more "Globalists such as Justin Trudeau would like to fill the West with people who will help to create a vast dictatorship, where the main population consists of uneducated people accustomed to autocracy, and where the dissidents are reduced in numbers, taught to be ashamed of their own culture, and brainwashed into a belief in what is euphemistically called multiculturalism. Ultimately this so-called multiculturalism means a world of no culture at all — a world of no values, no pride, no self-respect, no past, and no future, only obedience. Tens of thousands of "Syrian refugees" have already been brought into Canada by Trudeau, and many more will be coming. Most do not speak English, most are not employable, and most are Muslim. And why is no Muslim country willing to take these people? Canada already has serious problems of unemployment and poverty, and our health-care system is rated 30th by the World Health Organization, yet Trudeau spends vast amounts of money on such questionable issues as his so-called humanitarianism — more accurately referred to as "grabbing the ethnic vote." The total expected cost of bringing in these Syrians is said to be about a billion dollars, though the real figure may be considerably more than that. And of course Syrians are not the only Muslims coming into Canada. Canada has the world's highest overall rate of immigration. It also has the world's fastest growing Muslim population. Yet most of Canada is barren land, not suitable for further growth in population of any sort."

The problem in Canada is the Liberal and NDP want open immigration from the third world and could care less how it effects our country. I don't believe there is much opposition among the left to open immigration. Most are either for it or at best take a neutral position. Few oppose it. None want to be seen as racist or xenophobic, and now Islamophobic. The left know how to play this to silence any critics. Few polictians will stand against open borders. The odd politician that does, even in a very mild manner, such as Kelly Leitch, is immediately rejected as some kind of radical or racist, xenophobic. The fewer from western Judeo-Christian countries, the happier the left are. They are also globalists and believe in dragging Canada into some kind of global socialist order. The more immigrants we get from the third world, the more political pressure the left can exert to increase the numbers from those areas even more. They realize these type of immigrants are likely to vote for left leaning parties who will support open borders and immigration from the third world. They are quite comfortable with illegal migrants walking across the border and getting onto our social system. Since the U.N. is the current vehicle for globalism, they strongly support all things U.N. If the U.N. decrees man-made global warming is a fact, they all jump and are ready to pay whatever carbon tax is imposed. Of course there might be the odd person who protests, but this does little good because his voice is drowned out by the majority on the left.

The Roman Church does NOT recognize the bible as it's final authority Their final authority is called the Majesterium, a council of hierarchy. Only Protestant Bible believers believe the bible as their final authority. Of course today, many churches have gone downhill and fallen into error. But at the time of the Reformation, the Jesuits were formed to counter the REformation. They started the Counter-reformation. They held a council around 1545 and decreed a long list heresies which Protestants believed. I believe one of them was the Protestant belief of the right of private interpretation of the bible. They condemned this. You can mock my view that the Roman church held back progress in many countries, but the evidence is there. Mexico, South America and Central America were exploited by Spain 500 years ago. There are books written on that.
