4000 animals that slowly died from heat, and lack of water. What a suffering, but I'm so happy that those responsible for this will be held accountable, and that rules will be put in place to ensure this will never ever happen again. At least their deaths were not in vain

Provincial health ministries are avoiding talking about Mennonites because they want to avoid stigmatization.

I'm sorry, but no. Stigmatize them.

Warning : rant ahead.

You cannot both live in the modern world and require everyone to bend to your little fantasies. I get that Mennonites want to live 200 years in the past and if that's your wish, fine, but that "find" stops when we're talking about highly infectious diseases.

Even with vaccines, these diseases can still spread and infect vaccinated people or, worse, people with weakened immune systems who are more at risk anyway.

You want to continue like this? Go live on a deserted island and break all contact with the outside world or something. Well Send a research team to see how long you'll last. Better yet, drop your childish beliefs and understand that there is nothing wrong with actual science and what it gets you.

They get the fruits of science anyway, the food they eat is the result of science, they'll use glasses that exist because of science and I know that there are more enough willing to drive a car when there is a need so their "omg god rules" can be bent.

Child abuse is another reason. These children are living under the rules of parents that puts them at active risk. These parents are risking death or life disability for their child just because they can't let go of their fantasies.

And for those already furiously starting to write that I need to be more respectful of their beliefs, and how dare I question their God.... Alright, I'll play. My religion allows me to shove my privates down children's throats, any age. Should you respect me now? Of course not. I'll call my god "whazoo" because there is where I pulled him out of, just like the Mennonites, just like the Christians, just like the Hindus, and I'll write it on a piece of paper to make it official, just like the Mennonites, just like the Christians, just like the Hindus.

Yeah, it's an over the top, horrible example but FFS, can it bring the point home, please? Can people please start understanding that this is not acceptable at all, just like my example?

Come on people, ALL RELIGIONS ARE MADE UP AND YOU ONLY BELIEVE IN THEM BECAUSE YOU WERE BROUGHT UP TO DO SO. And yes, those that claimed to "be raised atheist but then saw the light of God" are either lying (why are all religious so happy to lie and cheat when it comes to their religion?) or they were told that there is a god and they mistook gullibility for critical thinking.

If right now all religions would be erased from this world, I'm sure new ones would sprout like there is no tomorrow because people love to control others and there is no control like religious control. However, NONE of these religions would resemble anything of the religions we have now because again, they're all made up.

Why do we allow people to risk children's lives because of religion? If I out a knife against a child's throat, I'm insane and I'll be arrested. If I claim that God tells me to kill the child I'll still be arrested, not because I'm insane, but because people simply wouldn't believe that God would talk to me of all people. Yet, he "did", remember reading that fun chapter? If we don't allow me to kill a child, doh, then why do we allow these people to risk the lives of children just and only just because now suddenly some random imaginary god is inserted in to the conversation?

Argh, fuck all of this. Stop being so gullible, it's the same idiocracy we see with trump being worshipped like he's jeebus himself. Never mind the rapes, lies, cheating, self enrichment, fraud, insurrection, and I can go on for a while but you get the point.

/Rant.

REITs and private equity firms should be immediately made illegal. They only exist to squeeze asuxh money out of as much people and property as possible to make as much money as possible for a few shareholders, the rest can suffer
