World Economic Forum Speeches

There's always room for one more. ALWAYS.

That's what the Jehovah's Witnesses keep telling me.

You guys are taking a very large, very diverse segment of the pooulation and treating them like they are all the same. That's pretty ignorant for such "enlightened" people. And being very smug about it too.

There are 5 million United Methodists in the U.S.. How many have you seen proselytizing? How about Presbyterian  have you seen? Mennoties? Lutherans? Episcopalian? I'll tell you. Almost none. Unless you hear them talk about a fund raiser or charity event. Yet you have the hubris to look down on them with disdain and talk about hypocrites. Look in a mirror.

^^^^ In my best Tie-Ton voice....BOOM!!!!

I'm not sure who you mean by "you guys". Nowhere in my comments did I say "all". Most of my comments were made in jest, but I do have a problem with anyone who acts morally superior but their opinions or actions are contradictory, or they don't practice what they preach. If someone reads that and thinks I'm talking about them, maybe they need to take a look at themselves in the mirror?  I do see a lot of that in the "evangelicals" in government. If I do have any negative opinions of religion, that's where they come from.

Most of the conversations I've had about religion on this forum come from the direction of - if it helps you live a better life, I don't see a downside. As long as it doesn't affect me.

And of course when I talk about religion it's probably going to come across as smug in the same way that several people on this board have come across as being smug when they look down their nose at, or describe their opinion and criticism of atheists. If you want to talk about painting a group with a broad brush.

How many have you seen proselytizing?

For the record, I didn't mention proselytizing (I did joke about jehovas witnesses - my sister is one) but I did think that jstells comment was funny. I took it as a snarky joke. I'm not sure how anyone else took it.

Nice sum-up of what happened - Fink, definitely is the new Schwab replacement

You obviously don't follow Canadian politics. Listening to the CBC isn't doing you any favours. It has been a biased news source for decades, providing crying rooms for employees.

I do follow Canadian politics and Pierre pollievre had zero policy - he's a whining career politician with no practical experience and no ideas other than complaining about others. He lost his seat and his kowtowing to American foreign policy at this point verges on being a traitor. Conservatives should be embarrassed that was their candidate and should do better. The cons weren't a bad party it's these radical right weirdos that are ruining it. 

[TylerBeer]

This is the most CBC-Tier take I have ever read.

What was his platform?

[Brian]

Wow-just like here in the good ol' US of A!

The word "conservative" doesn't mean what it used to 50 years ago (perhaps even 20 years ago, sadly). It's as if the sensible middle ground has disappeared and we've all somehow sorted ourselves into what would formerly be recognized as the "lunatic fringe."

[Smit]

Wow-just like here in the good ol' US of A!

To me, a conservative is a former republican who hasn't gone crazy.

Having said that, the wacko Republicans still like to call themselves "conservative."

Please enlighten me to Turdues qualifications that led to him being elected??? Drama teacher, going black face? Seriously you are questioning qualifications. Carney is more than qualified to be a PM but he stole the platform from Poilievre.

Poilievre lost his seat to a group of people making a mockery of our electoral system. Creating the longest ballot in history. They tried the same stunt in his by-election. Make the fee to run for office $20,000 (or any significant amount) and it will take out the foolishness.

I know you are educated but stop following the CBC and the liberal Toronto Star pinko commie rag.

Canada is sinking in the outcome of past liberal policies like softening crime punishments and mass immigration.

[Newbeeee™]

And then there's Freeland (oxymoron of a name) too....

When Carney spoke a couple of days ago about the new Chyna world order, and how "we're not returning to the old world order", they are running with a very old plan....


In 2009, George Soros told WEF 'Young Global Leader' Chrystia Freeland about the need to create a New World Order owned by China—insisting that a "managed decline" of the U.S. dollar was not only "necessary" but "actually desirable".

Smitfer again thinking it's crazy because his 'lil bwain cannot comprehend their plan.
Despite, they announce it.
And they're doing it.
Yet, he still, cannot comprehend....

Did I say I liked Trudeau as a candidate? Yeah actually he still had more experience in the world than Pollievere who literally spent an entire career in politics being a little whiny bitch.  His platform was just anti-whatever liberals are doing. Only overlap with Carney would be what, no carbon tax?
You're reading too much Rebel media, which is a complete joke.

Pollievre lost being he's a loser. Get over it.

You're using literally the same rhetoric As big baby POTUS.

Nice try but I don't follow Rebel media just like I don't follow CBC or the Toronto Star. I don't watch or follow CNN or Fox either.

World experience...going black face, groping women, dressing up like East Indian people... no wonder his wife left him for a doctor!

Keep trying though!

[neurosis]

Isn't he boning Katie Perry now? I'm guessing he doesn't miss is ex wife.
