RZ is my hero. He made the best observation IMHO. "Were they bored with God? What brought this on?" I thought that was a good observation...what brought on the emergent conversation. Did these young evangelicals get bored with God, or doctrine, or the Church?

Good stuff.

Thanks for posting the video.

I couldn't stop watching You Tube clips of this panel discussion. As someone who left the church a long time ago, I still find arguments around the church interesting. One of the most interesting things I saw in these clips is that there is actually no discussion, only agreement. It would have been great to see a panel discussion with multiple views represented. That's why I loved growing up in the Mennonite community; in my private high school I was educated on major world religions before I studied ANY Mennonite history. Kudos to my school for promoting tolerance and allowing students to make their own educated decisions on faith!

This video infuriated me. These men patently misrepresented a very broad and nuanced movement with sweeping generalizations, patronizing (though unqualified) witty quips and (what seemed to me) no effort to understand. Do I acknowledge the truth of much of what they are saying? Of course, but that only makes their own twisting of truth more palatable. These men should know better.

I wish I had done this first. I believe this video was actually shot in Saskatoon, as a friend of mine, musician Paul Benjamin produced and does some back-up vocals on it. Rock on.

Christmas in Vancouver

As you can see I've been fooling around with different templates, fonts, colours, etc. I like this one - Carla was using it, so I've followed her lead. The font appears small - I've enlarged it on this post. By the way - I've lost my site counter!!! When I made the template shift, it disappeared. I have had a difficult time adding a new one. this is a bit frustrating as I like to see how many people are reading this thing. Any techies out there able to help me out? Anyways - had another does of Christmas in Vancouver. Went on the bright lights train in Stanley Park. This was actually pretty good. The train goes for about 15 minutes through a well decorated part of the Park. There were a few odd images - along with Santa, snowmen and a nativity scene, there were also native americans and a leprechaun. The train took a turn into Bizarro world, when a dancing cowgirl on stilts came out and did a little jig. This was a real live person on stilts dancing around. I was wonde...

Oh no, Dr. Montgomery!

"Healthcare in the heart of Yaletown - if you can afford it" For the past 6 years I have had the same physician: Dr. Brian Montgomery. We are quite close and I call him Brian. He knows me inside and out (literally). This is the longest period of time I have had the same doctor. We have quite a good relationship. I've invited he and his partner over to our place, but we've never been able to sync our schedules up. Well, I am sad to say our professional relationship is over. Brian will no longer be my doctor. I made the decision earlier this evening. As I was watching the news, Brian's face all of a sudden popped up - His clinc - the Mainland Clinic - is now going to start charging its patients to make appointments. The fees are going to be $30/appt. or $75 for the year to become a "member" of the clinic. The only motivation I can see is obviosuly money. The physcians obviously decided that the amounts they were billing the government was not enough. I hol...
