Canadian Values

Darrel Reid is the kind of MP candidate (he’s from Richmond BC) that scares me.

To be honest, I don’t know much about him. I cannot make too many comments on his personal election platform. What scares me is what appears to be the guiding light for the way that he would make political decisions. “I think every Christian’s under an obligation to change laws to reflect biblical values,” says Reid. “Different Christians are going to try to change different laws, according to the call God gives them.

This is a quote taken from this website. The quote is from 2000, but I would imagine that Reid still holds this belief.

I certainly do not want any MP to influence bills, laws, etc based on biblical values. Like most people in Canada, I think I hold strong and sensible moral values. I want biblical values as much as I want Islamic values as much as I want Jewish values as much as I want Zorastraan values.
