11.2.06 A time for acceptance![]() Rather than quote everyday bloggers this time, I quote King Abdullah—whom, incidentally, is descended directly from the prophet Mohammed: And we have to continue to ask ourselves, what type of world do we want for our children? I too often hear the word used as, tolerance. And tolerance is such an awful word. If we are going to strive to move forward in the future, the word that we should be talking about is acceptance. We need to accept our common humanity and our common values. And I hope that lessons can be learned from this dreadful issue, that we can move forward as humanity, and truly try to strive together, as friends and as neighbours, to bring a better world to all. The full press statements between the President and His Majesty from February 8 can be found here (thanks to Gina Cobb for the link). A video link at the RNC can be found here.

NoteEntries from 2006 to the end of 2009 were done on the Blogger service. As of January 1, 2010, this blog has shifted to a Wordpress installation, with the latest posts here.With Blogger ceasing to support FTP publishing on May 1, I have decided to turn these older pages in to an archive, so you will no longer be able to enter comments. However, you can comment on entries posted after January 1, 2010. Quick links![]() Add feeds
