Gulf grows between Canada, U.S., on religious issues

LAKE COUCHICHING, Ont. -- God's back -- at least in America. But far fewer Canadians feel the need to hold faith in a divine being.

That's Canadian pollster and book author Michael Adams' response to the theme of the annual conference on religion being held this weekend near Orillia, Ont., as he told participants Saturday that the great religious divide between Canada and the U.S. continues to grow significantly.

The theme of this year's Couchiching conference is "God's Back -- with a Vengeance: Religion, Pluralism and the Secular State" -- but clearly Adams and his polling numbers don't support it.

In a presentation titled God, Dads, Gays and Guns, Adams used a recent Canada-U.S. poll to demonstrate the divide. The poll shows 58 per cent of Americans saying that it is necessary to believe in God in order to be a moral person, while only 30 per cent of Canadians agree to this.

And while 45 per cent of Americans now say they go to church every week, only 20 per cent (down from 85 per cent in the 1950s) of Canadians can say the same thing.

"In the United States, I guess you can say that there is one category of person who cannot be elected, and that's an atheist. And in Canada, there's a category of person who can't be elected and of course that is a person who is an ostentatious religious person," said Adams.

"In fact, people who believe in God are suspect and we want to know a little bit more about them."..........................

More at the above link. And you Canucks keep at it, eh?

Less religious people also tend to be more liberal.

I don't know if that's such a good thing. Canada is a multicultural clusterfuck, and they love it. Mostly.




...

I heard KMD's books are banned in Canada.

And let's not forget they put Rushton on "Humans Rights" trial.

Getting good people to hate their own grandparents - the jews in action. All good people hate their grandparents.

I live in a suburb of Vancouver, it is 49% non white.
Canadian culture is barley visible. I live on a street where I can hear at least 6 different languages, no unity here. Whites are on their way out. The fact that Christianity is disappearing here in not a good thing. It is just telling of the fact that the country is being legally flooded with non white, non Christians. Though I feel the church is an anti white force, I don’t think destroying our cultural religion is a good thing.

They have hate speech laws here. That keeps the already reserved Canadian from speaking up. It is a sad situation really.

I'll take a wait & see on this one.

Karl Marx (damn his wretched soul) thought religion was the opiate of the masses. This thread seems to indicate that Canadians are further along the road to tyranny, but they don't have the opiate anymore. Given this, they might rebel sooner than Americans who are controlled more by their religious NGOs.

Never know. I just wouldn't write off the Canadians. The only people I've totally wrote off are suburban American xians, who cannot think to save their lives.

I can't find any demographics for alot of Canadian cities. Canada is already so multicult liberal that they suppress demographics? Fucking christ.




....

I used to think the same way, maybe Canada was better off since they didn’t support Israel or enter into the Iraq war with us; thus not being so Judea-Christianed out like we are. I don’t see it though. Instead I see a county of “compassionate” Canadians creating an image of the US being the war monger and Canada being a peace keeping helper of the world. Christianity can be considered “the opiate of the masses” but now Canadians pay homage to their government as the solution of all of life’s ills by way of socialism. This seems to allow the government into every part of your life.

Canadian conservatives seem pretty liberal. None of the political parties spoke up against the massive immigration they got going here in this past election. Instead, all just spoke on ways to make the immigration process faster. They do actually seem to enforce their immigration laws but why not when the flood comes legally. Most of the Euro Canadians I see are old, they are a dying breed. My movers were from Alberta. They commented on all the new non white immigrants in their town, though they didn’t like it, they didn’t feel there was anything they could do about it. It ain’t the "great white north”. If things keep going the way they are up here, it will be a majority of non whites before the US.


Anima Eternae:
I read this demographic in the local paper.

HOPE FOR CANADA???? YEAH RIGHT!


No freedom of speech!

No right to bear arms!

Multiculturalism protected and promoted in Canada since 1988 (in violation of other articles of our Constitution)!


We are steadily moving towards a Soviet state! I'll be lucky if I don't end up in prison for the dissenting views I hold!

The lack of Christianity doesn't imply any progress towards white racial awareness or recognition of the jews as the the spreaders of bad seeds.

Fact is, most jews are atheists. If Canada is on a slide towards an absence of religion and mass atheism, it doesn't mean things will get any better.

Racists come in all flavors, just look at this board. Canada is liberal socialist and a major destination for most Asian emigres moving into the western world, among others like Africans and stuff. I don't necessarily want to see Christianity die, but I do want to see it change. If Christians were to become the anti-Semites they were meant to be, there might be more hope for white nationalism. I won't hold my breath.

A lack of religion doesn't imply any pro-White feelings nor does it give me hope for Canada.

On a positive note, Canada is huge and the vast empty northern areas of the country might someday be a place for millions of whites to move to and realize their racial separation. Really though.

Well, grasping at straws don't cut it here I guess.

The only other thing that popped in my mind while reading the article was that Canadian attitudes towards religion are looking much more similar to Europe's than to the America's, which might also explain their love for European style hate laws.

So it's still sort of curious that Euro-Canucks are likely to hold European opinions more than Euro-Americans, even though both are disappearing at about the same rate. Neither is a winner. Back to the drawing board.
