False witness

BOSTON, MA—Local man Justin Fuller immediately fell dead after clicking “I have read and accept these terms and conditions” when installing a new piece of software Friday morning. The Lord and Sovereign Judge, from which nothing is hidden, could tell Fuller had not even glanced at the twelve pages of legalese, and thus his checking of the box was a lie against which God took immediate vengeance.

It is a good thing this is satire and not actual serious, reasonable theology, otherwise many of you, including most likely, Chuck, would be in big trouble, perhaps even dearly departed from this present realm.

(No comment on myself...)

Thank you to Saint Chuckles of Maple Ridge for the link.

The commandment is serious, however. These Old Testament/Hebrew Bible commandments are well summed up by Jesus Christ in Matthew 22, Mark 12, Luke 10 in the New Testament.

New arena for John the Rage (Calgary)

National Hockey League

No surprise, Calgary eventually negotiated a way to an agreement on an event centre and arena which would keep the Calgary Flames in Calgary, long term.

This provides new Calgarian, John the Rage, with a modern National Hockey League arena and events centre to attend, when he can fit it into his busy work and social schedule. Including exciting Christian singles events...

(By the way, the Rage would like to state that quote: 'Chuck needs a dome!', even though Chuck would look even more like the Red Skull, if he did as the Rage suggests.)

The city, the Calgary Flames and the Calgary Stampede have agreed on terms for an event centre that would become the new home for the Flames and replace the 36-year-old Saddledome. City council has yet to approve the deal, but details were unveiled at a news conference Monday evening at city hall. The estimated cost of the proposed 19,000-seat venue is $550 million.

Paying part of that $550 million should not effect your inheritance/savings/investments, too much, Rage.

The cost to build it would be split equally between the city and Calgary Sports and Entertainment, which owns the Flames, the Western Hockey League's Hitmen, CFL's Stampeders and National Lacrosse League's Roughnecks. 

Council is expected to vote on ratification next week. If the deal is approved, shovels go in the ground in 2021.

CSEC would retain all revenues generated by the event centre, but the city would get a facility fee on every ticket sold to every event for 35 years — estimated to be $155 million — receive a share of naming rights and collect any additional property tax from businesses that spring up in the area. 

The city vowed in its proposal that the new arena would not increase municipal property taxes. CSEC would also invest $75 million into local community sports organizations over 35 years.

From a Canadian perspective, Ottawa remains the only Canadian League market with significant questions in regard to a suitable long term building.

Philosophical & Theological Reflections On Satirical Images: Summer 2019

Facebook: Many of British friends do not vote Conservative. This advertisement would support their case... 

Facebook: I am most impressed by the cat being willing to pose for the photo.

Facebook: I dislike the taste of diet sodas. That looks like two weeks lunch for me.

.

Facebook: a) Survive earthquake b) Publicly display self as 'kool' surviving earthquake.

To be clear: I do not support racism or racist comments. I am for immigration and reasonable security measures within immigration and for the protection of national sovereignty. I do not support 'go back' comments.

Prime Minister Trudeau's comments that these 'go back' comments 'should not be allowed' in Canada, concern me.

I reason that there is at times a fine line between true hate speech and political rhetoric used to gain support for a politician. The difference between hate speech and political rhetoric needs to be parsed in an objective, non-heated, non-political, context.

Related, slander and libel laws handle defamation.

The Canadian Charter of Rights and Freedoms guarantees the right to “freedom of thought, belief, opinion and expression, including freedom of the press and other media of communication”, but this right, along with all rights guaranteed by The Charter, is not absolute. 

Some types of free expression in Canada are crimes, such as perjury, distributing obscene material, and hate speech. 

The right to free expression is subject to “reasonable limits prescribed by law as can be demonstrably justified in a free and democratic society.” Free expression crimes in Canada are constitutional issues, and the onus is on the government to prove that the infringement is justifiable. 

However, some limits on free expression in Canada have nothing to do with government restrictions or the right to free expression as defined in the Charter. 

One such limit is the civil tort of defamation. Defamation refers to harming another person’s reputation by making a false written or oral statement about that person to a third party. Defamation law is not about protecting pride; it is about protecting reputation and offering restitution to people whose reputations have been wrongly damaged. 

Although courts will very occasionally issue an injunction to stop defamation that has not yet occurred, almost all defamation cases involve one person suing another for damages from defamatory statements that have already been made.
