Canada leading the way in moral decay – By Yvonne Sam

Canada leading the way in moral decay

By Yvonne Sam

God keep our land glorious and free! O Canada, we stand on guard for thee. O Canada, we stand on guard for thee. 

The words above are the lyrics to the Canadian national anthem, but sadly none of it rings true any longer.  Oh! Canada can’t you see, no one is standing on guard for thee. Today while there is much more knowledge available than any other time in history, very few would take umbrage at revelation of the fact that people are no wiser than before.  On the other hand many would contend that that we are living in a particularly foolish period —– a period that is largely and visibly wisdom-free, especially among those with the most knowledge: the best educated. Catapulting at an almost rapid pace as the absence of wisdom is the decline in morality.

But, Seriously, Where Are the Aliens? – Derek Thompson | The Atlantic

But, Seriously, Where Are the Aliens?

Humanity may be as few as 10 years away from discovering evidence of extraterrestrial life. Once we do, it will only deepen the mystery of where alien intelligence might be hiding.

Derek Thompson | The Atlantic

Enrico Fermi was an architect of the atomic bomb, a father of radioactivity research, and a Nobel Prize–winning scientist who contributed to breakthroughs in quantum mechanics and theoretical physics. But in the popular imagination, his name is most commonly associated with one simple, three-word question, originally meant as a throwaway joke to amuse a group of scientists discussing UFOs at the Los Alamos lab in 1950: Where is everybody?

Fermi wasn’t the first person to ask a variant of this question about alien intelligence. But he owns it. The query is known around the world as the Fermi paradox. It’s typically summarized like this:    

A Child Does NOT Cry in Spanish or English. A Child Simply Cries, and We Respond – Oscar Cásares | The Washington Post

A Child Does NOT Cry in Spanish or English. A Child Simply Cries, and We Respond.

Oscar Cásares | The Washington Post

They were NOT my children. So why on earth would I want to listen to seven minutes of an audio recording of small children crying for their mommies and daddies?

Children from Mexico and Guatemala and Honduras and El Salvador, children separated from their families at the U.S.A. border, children who weren’t from here. But everyone around me kept listening to the recording and asking:

Did you hear it? And each time I nodded, not because I’d heard it but because it was sad, all of it, and I didn’t need to listen to a recording to know this. Still, it made me wonder if it would help me understand the sadness in a different way. I told myself I’d listen only once, but once turned into twice, and after the third time, I couldn’t stop listening. I listened until the back of my head rang with the grating clarity of their little voices.

POLITICS – GUYANA CONSTITUTION REPAIR

.

By Verian Mentis-Barker – June 21, 2018  

.

The Constitution is the supreme law of Guyana. It outlines the branches and powers of Government, establishes qualifications and times for elections, lists basic human rights and sets up independent institutions to protect these rights. All laws made by Parliament must be in keeping with the provisions of the Constitution. This means that any law that is in conflict with the Constitution is unconstitutional, in other words, it is not valid……     

….. Early in 1999 an Act of Parliament established the Constitutional Reform Commission. It successfully completed its tasks and submitted its report to the National Assembly by the due date of 17th July, 1999. The Commission made 171 recommendations for constitutional amendments. All amendments, with the exception of those requiring a referendum, have been passed into Acts of Parliament.

This is not what was meant by ‘suffer the little children…’- By Mohamed Hamaludin

This is not what was meant by ‘suffer the little children…’

By Mohamed Hamaludin

An undocumented Honduran woman claimed immigration agents ripped her infant from her while she was breastfeeding her baby at a detention center in McAllen, Texas, and handcuffed her when she resisted the outrage. The Department of Homeland Security rejected the accusation as “false” but, given the administration’s record on “false” news, the denial will ring hollow to many people.

And, in any case, between April 19 and May 31, 1,995 children were taken from 1,940 adults who crossed the border without documentation, the parents jailed, the children taken into state custody.
