No funding for sports facilities: Ottawa - National Post

Too many... all of them, programs are subsidized by taxpayers... that's right... us, the ones that pay, the ones that struggle to grow and prosper... and the media and the politicians keep saying it is the Federal Government paying or it is the Provincial government paying or it is the Municipality paying... and how could we ignore... it is the big corporations paying... On all of the above, it is always and invariably; us, the taxpayer who ends up paying.


So, enough is enough. We must get into the concept of small government by the people for the people and discontinue all of these 'ideals' of us giving the government the ability to do whatever they want with our hard earned resources. They work for us, period.

There are many people requiring of our love and compassion, but when we abdicate our responsibility to care to the obscurity of political intentions, then we surrender our own dignity to them.

So many parasites and predators emerge from this illusion that says that a magnanimous government can really help the people and the end cannot be but when the people react and say that is it! No more!

We are going to take care of our neighbours loving them and being compassionate with them and as human beings we are equipped to handle the matter, Jesus tells us we can and we certainly can, not on our own because we still need of the Church for moral guidance, but that is far from depending on the government to ultimately derive our efforts towards 'helping' sodomites keep living in the darkness or some women believing that a choice is only when they think it is and therefore they should be entitled to kill their own at any stage of pregnancy.

Governments exist only to provide protection for life and to guarantee the freedoms God has given us from creation. The government is a creation of humans and throughout history we can testify of so many empires and kingdoms, as well as republics and democracies that have succumbed mainly because they re-engineered morality on behalf of their own ambitions, greed and weaknesses.

Lord, teach us to pray, just as John taught his disciples

Gospel text ( L uke 11,1-4): One day Jesus was praying in a certain place and when He had finished, one of his disciples said to him, «Lord, teach us to pray, just as John taught his disciples». And Jesus said to them, «When you pray, say this: Father, hallowed be your name, may your kingdom come, give us each day the kind of bread we need, and forgive us our sins, for we also for-give all who do us wrong, and do not bring us to the test»

Money

Is money the ultimate goal, the end of all means? Nowadays, it seems, everything is not just measured in terms of money, but everything needs to be, has to be, in terms of money. Money is set as the goal, over anything. Money is meant to be just a media for exchange of goods and services, not a goal on itself, yet our society has corrupted onto making of money a statement beyond life, family, marriage and most definitively above love and truth. Such a philosophy has degraded our souls to the point of denying everything that is in conflict with the value of money. Even when charity is concerned, it seems mercy can only be measured in monetary terms, as if charity could be measured by anyone except God alone. If there is crusade or cause to be enrolled, the only acceptable way has been institutionalized as the amount of money it can be contributed, regardless of the individual efforts that could be applied or spent.

A matter of life or death

Maybe I am the only one in Ontario, ‘experiencing’ a confrontation with the 407ETR corporation, or maybe not. So far it seems the fact is that I am not, that many out there are subjected to billing from the corporation. No, I am not saying unfair, discriminatory or any of the kind, but I am going to say, unsupported and unsubstantiated. The issue of the matter is that the corporation, for some presumably important reason, is blessed by the province of Ontario to have the ability to stop the licensing of any individual who fail to pay the corporation anything they ask for even if they apparently, are not able to support with facts what they claim.
