Politics and Religion

04/07/2007 by Debra

Rules of etiquette commonly call for the avoidance of certain topics. Chief among those are politics and religion.

It is worth noting that these are treated as two separate items, and rightly so.

When religion is factored into politics neither can work appropriately.

Religion deals with spirituality, with ones belief in being part of a specific god’s community and the leaders therein are charged with representing a specific community of belief.

Politics deals with issues specific to secular communities. An elected representative is charged with representing everyone, not just those who subscribe to a certain belief system. Though some governments tend to forget this. [Read more…] about Politics and Religion

Are Tits breasts?

02/10/2007 by Debra

stripclubThe Breast Cancer Society of Canada doesn’t seem to think so.

BCSC turned down a donation of funds raised at a strip club event so as not to offend certain other donors.

How nice.

I wonder who else they won’t accept donations from?

Perhaps they have access to studies showing that strippers aren’t women. That they aren’t subject to the same chance of breast cancer as the rest of us.

They claim that they turned the money down because its major donors did not support a connection to exotic dancers.

Did the money have a money shot on it? What the hell?

I propose we send letters to the Breast Cancer Society of Canada which they can read at their leisure and then pass on to their major donors.

Included in this letter would be the definition of charity

To wit;
1. Provision of help or relief to the poor; almsgiving.
2. Something given to help the needy; alms.
3. An institution, organization, or fund established to help the needy.
4. Benevolence or generosity toward others or toward humanity.
5. Indulgence or forbearance in judging others.

And if that is too subtle maybe someone would take it upon themselves to mail a stripper pole or facsimile of with explicit instructions of where to place it.
