I was just wondering as we had a visitor at our church that said he was a Dualist but he said there were also Oneness preachers in the fellowship he was in.

From the April 13, 2009 edition of MacLean's magazine:

"According to new data from Project Teen Canada, more teens now identify as Muslim than Anglican, United Church of Canada and Baptist combined."

"Since 1984, the percentage of teens who call themselves Christians has almost been cut in half while the number who call themselves atheist has grown to sixteen per cent, up from just six percent in the mid-1980s."

This startling study gave the following stats for Canadian teens:

In 1984, 50% identified themselves as Roman Catholic. By 2008 that number had dropped to 32%.

In 1984, 35% identified themselves as Protestant. By 2008 that number had dropped to 13%.

Only 12% identified themselves as having no faith at all in 1984. By 2008 that number had risen to 32%.

More than twice as many teens identify themselves as having no faith at all as identify themselves as Protestant.

Canada needs revival!!!

That great man of faith and wisdom, Jeffrey Arnold, said, "When you stand in front of a masterpiece, you don't judge it, it judges you."

Likewise, when a man tips up a steaming double-double of Timmy's finest, he doesn't judge it, it judges him.

A man that would drink coffee under the golden arches probably considers a Whopper a fine cut of meat.

In court the other day there was a case regarding the custody of a small child.
The judge asked the boy, "do you want to live with your mother?"
He replied, "No I don't want to live with her because she beats me!".
The judge then asked, "Do you want to live with your father?"
The boy stated, "No he beats me too."
Finally the judge asked, "where do you want to live?"
The child responded, "I want to live with the Montreal Canadiens!".
The judge asked, "Why do you want to live with the Montreal Canadiens?"
The boy exclaimed, "Because the Montreal Canadiens don't beat anybody!"

None of them can play hockey.

Two boys were playing hockey at an outdoor arena when one is attacked by a Pitbull. Thinking quickly, the other boy rips a board off the nearby fence, wedges it down the dog's collar and twists, breaking the dog's neck. A reporter who was walking by saw the incident, and rushed over to interview the boy!


"Vancouver Canucks fan saves friend from vicious animal," he starts writing in his notebook.


"But I'm not a Canucks fan," the boy replied.


"Edmonton Oilers fan rescues friend from horrific attack," the reporter starts again.


"I'm not a Oilers fan either," the boy said.


"Then what are you?" the reporter asked.


"I'm a Maple Leafs fan."


The reporter turns to a new sheet in his notebook and writes, "Redneck idiot kills family pet."

Q & A from Health Canada

Q: The Stanley Cup was recently on tour in my town, and I kissed it. Do I have to worry about being infected by listeria?


A: You are safe. The Stanley Cup has not been in contact with any Maple Leaf product in over 40 years.

A few names that may be familiar to some here were mentioned in recent communications from the Apostolic Church of Pentecost about the disaster in Haiti.

The ACOP does not have any churches or "direct ministry affiliates" in Haiti, but several "members and people connected to the ACOP Atlantic District" were in the country when the earthqauke struck. All are safe.

Those mentioned were Miles and Rosemary Blair, Heidi Billington (wife of Pastor Chad Billington, Smythe Street) and Murray Moore.

Heidi Billington's story has been reported quite extensively over here on the coast that God made first.

Why would you freeze to death in an igloo?

Go club a seal, make a coat, eat the meet and be warm. Better yet, club a European and have enough hot air and blubber to heat your igloo all winter.

Seal meat - You've got to live her to get it. :killinme

The UPCI of Canada, hahaha Are you jokin, Lets just look at the facts here..
Canada has a population of 33 million vs the USA with 330 million
they could not support them selves
I dont know this for sure but i bet that Canada is given more money than they raise.
also not all churches would follow and leave, UPCI Canada would not have enough church to amount to anything, sorry but it is true.

Please dont think I am being mean here i Go to College in Canada, been here for 8 months straight now, i Respect Canada but that is just silly.

Not to mention I am surrounded by all the Leaders of the UPCI in Canada, I go to the General Superintendent's (of New Brunswick) Church and know the Youth President for New Brunswick personally. Along with all the Leaders that make up the board for NB, Not just me know them but they also know be personally and i see them almost weekly.

I am just trying to say that if this were going on I would have heard of something by now. I have talked about the Last split with several of the Pastors and they were not happy about it at all.

Very interesting.

I have been acquainted with the UPC in NB since many of the "board for NB" were still in short pants, and I don't recall ever hearing of a split.

How about some inside info? You've got the inside connections, how about giving us the scoop.
