Since I moved to the US last August, I am constantly amazed that the Kooks here are STILL impressed with the idea that god is punishing the US for being so tolerant of gays by sending hurricanes and terrorists and wars to them.
This idea ws invalid the day the Kooks first crapped it out…
- Canada allows gay marriage.
- Canada doesn’t throw you in jail for pot possession (you can be fined…but you’ll still get a job).
- Canada has had openly gay elected politicians (I’m not entirely sure if there are any now).
- Canada has had a strong military presence in Afghanistan since 9-11.
- Canada never went to Iraq (because by some slim miracle we elect only *partially* retarded officials to head our government).
And yet:
- Canada has never been attacked by foreign terrorists (we terrorize ourselves, thank you very much).
- Canada is almost completely unaffected by natural disasters (except the FUCKING FUCKING cold).
- My home province of Alberta is the world’s largest rat-free landmass.
- My home province of Alberta also contains more oil than there is in the entire middle-east.
- Canada has VAST quantities of clean, fresh water (we drink out of our taps at home, much to the shock of most of my friends here).
- Canadians pay nothing for health care, and having been employed in both countries I can tell you the amount of income tax I paid back in Canada was just *barely* more than I pay here. Month to month I don’t even notice the difference.
Sure seems like god smiles on Canada.
So I guess all the fundies have to realize is that they should give everyone the right to marry, mind their own business, stop trying to limit the freedoms of others to satisfy their personal beliefs, and travel to other countries for reasons other than shootin’ guns or *practising* shootin’ guns, and god will take away all the terrorists and floods and hurricanes and wars!!
Wait…that sounds hopelessly simplistic and retarded doesn’t it?
Meh don’t listen to me…down here I’m just a funny guy who says aboot.
