Two-Faced Hypocrites 'Forgive' Lennon (Pardon me while I puke)
The Vatican's newspaper has finally forgiven John Lennon for declaring that the Beatles were more famous than Jesus Christ, calling the remark a "boast" by a young man grappling with sudden fame. Click Here For StoryThis ridiculous forgiveness, from one of the most prejudiced, hate-riddled, war mongering institutions this planet has ever seen is one of the most, infuriating things I have read in quite some time.
John Lennon did more to promote peace and humanity in his short life than all of the popes put together throughout the entire history of the catholic church.
Why don't these catholic morons try apologizing themselves for all the thousands (millions?) of children that their priests molested? And since were on the topic, lets have another for all the innocent victims of wars fought in gods name? Maybe another for the victims of your twisted cruelty who were burned and boiled alive? Don't forget those you tortured and murdered in the name of your god for crimes like witchcraft and heresy, I could go on and on, but I like to think that I am a reasonable guy so I'll wait for the church to apologize and then judge who really needs to be forgiven.

Who am I to judge the church? Who the hell do these condescending idiots think they are to judge anyone?
I'll leave you with a couple of quotations. The first is probably not as famous as the second, with the exception of some members of the clergy (you know who you are).
"Whatever thy hand findest to do, do it with all thy heart."
-Jesus Christ, fictional character, circa 4 BC - 36 AD*
*I realize this makes no sense as fictional characters don't have actual birthdays and death-days, but I couldn't resist when I saw the 4 BC. How was Jesus born four years before christ? Well, he's Jesus, his mother was a virgin, for christ sake! Okay, I'll let it go. Anyway, this concise bit of data comes from the knowledgeable folks at theologyweb so lets be nice and just agree with them.
"Imagine there’s no countries, it isn’t hard to do; nothing to kill or die for, and no religion too. Imagine all the people living life in peace."
-John Lennon, actual real human 1940 -1980 AD

Marrow Transplant Cures AIDS?
BERLIN - An American man who suffered from AIDS appears to have been cured of the disease 20 months after receiving a targeted bone marrow transplant normally used to fight leukemia, his doctors said Wednesday.
While researchers - and the doctors themselves - caution that the case might be no more than a fluke, others say it may inspire a greater interest in gene therapy to fight the disease that claims two million lives each year. The virus has infected 33 million people worldwide. Full Story

My Letter To CTV News
I'm attaching a link to a story from newsdurhamregion.com http://www.newsdurhamregion.com/news/article/112449 I'm surprised that I haven't seen any coverage of this on CTV, perhaps I missed it? Or perhaps CTV isn't as supportive of the gay community as it would like the public to think it is? I seem to remember the onslaught of 'feel good' promos in the weeks leading up to Toronto Pride. One could come to the conclusion that CTV is only interested in self promotion and cares little about gay rights, and very serious hate crimes like this where innocent women are beaten publicly in front of their children. Its my sincere hope that I am wrong about the intentions of CTV news, although somehow I feel that would be hoping for too much.

TGV In Rennes
This is the TGV train we rode from Paris to Renne. The super fast train runs at speeds in excess of 300 KPH (186 MPH) and is very smooth and comfortable, not to mention regularly on time! Unheard of on a Via train.11.05.2008
Americans Vote For Change!
Barack Obama rode a wave of voter discontent to a historic White House victory, promising change as the first black U.S. president but constrained by a deep economic crisis and two lingering wars.
Obama led Democrats to a sweeping victory that expanded their majorities in both houses of Congress as voters emphatically rejected President George W. Bush's eight years of leadership.
The son of a black father from Kenya and white mother from Kansas, Obama was born at a time when black Americans were still battling segregationist policies in the South. His election triumph over Republican rival John McCain on Tuesday is a milestone that could help the United States bury its long and often brutal history of racism.
