Why are you yelling? Please summarize this wall of text.
THE BANK OF CANADA'S SENIOR DEPUTY GOVERNOR ROGERS SAYS TARGETING HOME PRICES DIRECTLY WITH INTEREST RATES 'IS NOT THE ANSWER' AND WOULD RISK IMPOSING COSTS ACROSS THE ECONOMY, WHILE NOTING FALLING HOUSE PRICES CAN CUT HOUSEHOLD WEALTH, WEAKEN SPENDING AND SLOW SALES AND CONSTRUCTION, AND THAT TAKING MORTGAGE COSTS OUT OF CPI WOULD REMOVE A REAL COST MANY HOUSEHOLDS ARE PAYING.

Some of you may have called this, even though I've always said I never wanted to actually be in politics, though I love talking about them... But I, like many of you, am tired of feeling betrayed by so-called conservatives in this province, who time and time again fail to maintain the courage of their convictions and the convictions of their constituents, sacrificing it for political expediency and power. With that being said, I'm hoping to run with @One_BCHQ for Abby West this election, and I need your help. This isn't a commitment to vote, it's just a nomination to get my name on the ballot, and I need ~150 signatures by Oct. 3rd. You can sign here (tinyurl.com/5t2ux8a3), and you do need to fill in your full name, email, and full residential address (not a PO box), and reside in the Abbotsford West electoral district for your signature to count. If you don't live in Abby West, sharing this with someone who does would be a huge help. Thanks so much, Patrick, Lauren + the girls tinyurl.com/5t2ux8a3

A summary of the BC Political Coup - unbelievable: -The center-right Conservative Party ousted their own leader who was voted in by actual members because the party elite felt she was too right-leaning... she was ALSO banned from running with them in the election. Her husband was seemingly banned as well. (A total family purge) The party leadership was then replaced with people who LOST to her in the actual vote. A third-world style coup. NOW this party expects the 51% of their membership who they betrayed to simply "unite" -Seeing this dumpster fire happening, the Premier called an election on the same day to upgrade his majority government to...... a majority government to "handle Trump".... and get himself power for 2 extra years. This is not a real democracy. This is a banana republic.

Fun fact: In economics, a “free” product isn’t necessarily free. If you spend time waiting in line, traveling to get it, or filling out a form, that time has a cost. Your opportunity cost is whatever you could have done with that time instead.

The whole "Canada joining the EU" schtick is just late-game cope by anti-American Elbowzos. Canada is attached at the hip with the United States. Our future is with them, no matter what. Time for a geography lesson and a reality check! 😅

John leaned on Jesus' chest at supper. Stayed at the cross when every other man ran. Outlived all twelve. Beaten. Boiled in oil. Exiled to a rock in the ocean. Thirty years later, Jesus appeared to him in glory. John didn't worship. Didn't kneel. Didn't lift his hands. He fell at His feet as dead. As dead. Peter did the same thing. After the miraculous catch - boats sinking under the weight - Peter didn't celebrate. He said: "Depart from me; for I am a sinful man, O Lord." Isaiah saw the Lord high and lifted up. Seraphim crying, Holy. And the prophet said: "Woe is me! for I am undone." Job argued with God for 37 chapters. Then God showed up. Job said: "I abhor myself and repent in dust and ashes." Every tough man in the Bible who saw the living God had the same reaction. Not awe. Not worship. Collapse. Now look at us. Walking into church with coffee. Nodding at sermons. Shaking hands in the lobby. Forgetting it by Tuesday. We think we've been in God's presence. If you'd been in God's presence, you wouldn't walk out the same way you walked in. The men who saw Him couldn't stand. We can barely be bothered to sit. When Jesus returns, there will be no more heroes. No more performers. The hero and the villain will stand equal at last - empty-handed, bare-faced, finally free to be merely beloved...

Canada is the only G7 country that owns ZERO gold. They finished selling in early 2016 and kept 77 ounces of coins, which is about $400,000 worth. The final sale was 95,817 ounces at an average of $1,274.70, for around $122 million. At today’s prices that’s roughly $495 million. So that batch alone cost them about $374 million. But that’s not the real number… In 1965 Canada held 1,023 tonnes. That’s 32.9 million ounces. They spent the next 50 years selling it off. At today’s price that hoard would be worth roughly $170 billion. Canada’s entire foreign currency reserves are about $126 billion. The gold they sold would be worth more than everything they currently hold. The reason given was diversification. Move away from physical commodities into liquid financial assets. The best part is that Canada is the fourth largest gold producer on earth. They mined 200 tonnes last year, worth about $15 billion. They dig it out of the ground, sell it to other central banks, and hold none of it.

Exactly.
The surest way to refute Calvinism, apparently, is to avoid describing it accurately.

This is the "double pendulum". It's an extremely simple device, yet it's also one of the most unpredictable ones. You can start the movement from the exact same position a thousand times, and it will never react the same way. It is impossible to build a mathematical / computer model that will precisely predict its behaviour, and it only has a few inputs. That's why "Climate" models are nothing but junk. Earths climate is a multi-variable, extremely complex system. No single input (like the concentration of carbon dioxide) determines its behaviour. teapaw.org/ps_ilove_me/status/208…

Once you are saved, you cannot pluck yourself out of the Father's hand (John 10:28 KJV) and "lose or forfeit" salvation...Once you are saved, you cannot be “unsaved,” “unborn again,” “unredeemed,” “unsealed,” “unjustified,” “unreconciled,” or “unforgiven." Once you are saved, you are sealed with the Holy Spirit of promise unto the day of redemption (Eph 1:13-14, 4:30 KJV), meaning you can't be unsealed. Once you have believed on the Lord Jesus Christ, you are saved, and you are not your own; you have been bought with a price, by the precious blood of Jesus Christ (1 Corinthians 6:19-20 KJV). Once you have been born again (saved), can't be unborn again (unsaved). OSAS. Once a child of GOD, always a child of GOD.

Don’t put words in my mouth.
