I enjoy reading your comments, if only because I am amazed at two things; one is the hatred directed at you for not believing in other people’s religious convictions and two, because in a country whose one and only virtue, as far as I am concerned, is the principle of free speech there are so many people who seem to demand that principle for themselves yet want to deny it to others. Both are part of the same issue of course. Although the US likes to promote a certain image of itself as an open, free, tolerant society, from my perspective here in Australia it is anything but that. I wonder if you ever saw The Handmaids Tale? You do know what they would do to you if the religious fundamentalists took over your country? I guess you have a bag packed with ‘Canada’ written on it?
