called the Kairos Palestine Document. Written by a group of Palestinian Christians, the aim of the Kairos Document is the elimination of Israe,l and it urges economic warfare through a boycott.

The document also approves “armed resistance” against Israel as carried out by “some political parties,” meaning Hamas and other terrorist groups.  However, the document rejects the charge of terrorism, labelling the murder of Israelis as “legal resistance.”

So as the National Post sees it, a group of 15 activists gets to define all United Church members basically as anti-Semitic? This article is pretty unfair to the United Church I think. 

National Post: Why United Church activists are targeting Israel

After the discussion on the Observer, where I and others stated what we would like to see, I realized that using existing technologies it is a lot easier to do so than it would have been in the past.   I am now thinking  about starting an online magazine called  "

 I thought it would be useful to collect a list of Youtube Videos, and other videos and music available on the Internet.  Please add your most liked hymns from VU and MV.

The Manual

Two words, one very small one, that can cause people to shake or shiver.

Yet, an important book to the functioning of the United Church of Canada.

January 13, 2010

In response to the humanitarian crisis provoked in Haiti by the serious earthquake on Tuesday, January 12, The United Church of Canada is appealing for donations to support relief and reconstruction efforts. The church has already committed $20,000 to relief efforts by partners in the region.

I am engaged in a discussion about Terms of Reference and I am being told that any organization has a "Terms of Reference".

The interesting part is that if you punch "TOR" in the searchbar, Terms of Reference are all over the place. Now search for the Terms of Reference of the United Church of Canada, and it comes up with any number of TOR's except for the United Church of Canada.

Once again, find me the address to access the Terms of Reference of the United Church of Canada (and I am talking about the institute itself) Thank you.
