topic “God’s Plan for the

this type of home is one
where Christ is trusted,
loved and obeyed.
What progress are we
making to ihake our homes

your father and mother and

There are many who are a
disgrace to their honest
hard-working fore-fathers
and who are trying in every
way, to tear down what those
fore-fathers so. laboriously
built.
The “Sudbury Life”
recently published an article
in the interests of better
community living under the
heading “I am a sick
Canadian” and I believe it
reveals a lot of truth. It says
in part: “There are those
who claim that ours is a ‘sick
society’; that our Country is
sick; that we are sick. Well
maybe they are right. I
submit that I am sick and
maybe you are sick too.”
I am sick of having
policeman ridiculed as
“pigs” while cop killers are
hailed as some kind of folk
heroes.
I am sick of being told that
religion is only an opiate of
the people that marriage is
no longer necessary, that if
two people are in agreement
nothing else matters.
I am sick of comments of
columnists canonizing
anarchists, revolutionaries
and criminals, but con
demning law enforcement
when such criminals are
brought to justice.
I am sick of our entire
justice system whose sen
tences make a farce of the
justice they are paid to
uphold and turn criminals
loose on an already
disgusted society, while at
the same time passing other
decisions designed to take
away every means I have of
protecting my home and
family.
I am sick of pot-smoking
entertainers deluging me
with their condemnation of
my moral standards on late
night television.
I am sick of being told that
policemen are mad dogs,
who should not be allowed to
carry guns - but that
criminals who use guns and
knives to rob, maim and
murder innocent, productive
people should be understood
and helped back to society.
I am sick of not being able
to take my family to a movie,
unless I want them exposed
to nudity, homosexuality and
the glorification of narcotics.
I am sick' of hearing the
same slick slogans - the cries
of people, who chant the
same things like zombies -
because they haven’t the
capacity for verbalizing
thought.
I am sick of riots, mar
ches, protests, demon
strations, confrontations and
other mob temper tantrums
of people intellectually in
capable of working within a
system.
I am sick of the cynical
attitude towards patriotism
of politicians with little
backbone of permissiveness
of the dirty - the foulmouthed
the unwashed.
I am especially sick of the
decline of personal honesty,
personal integrity and
human sincerity.
Most of all though, I am
sick of being told that I am
sick. I’m sick of being told
that my country is sick, that
it owes the unwashed and the
loafer a living; when we
have, in truth, the greatest
nation that man has ever
brought forth, on the face of
the earth.
that
and
Fully 50 percent of all
people on earth would
willingly trade places with
the most deprived and most
underprivileged among us.
Yes, I may be sick, but if I
am only sick, I can get well
and help my country get
well.
Take note, all of you, you
will not find me throwing
rocks, or bombs, you will not
find me under a derrogatory
placard, you willnot see me
take to the streets ranting
obscencties with wild eyed
mobs.
But you will find me at
work, which proved so
enriching and rewarding to
my parents and forefathers,
paying taxes, supporting
religion, service in the
community where I live and
exhorting elected officials to
stand firm against
lawlessness.
I will be speaking in
support of those officials
institutions and personalities
who contribute to the
elevation of society.
You will find me sup
porting churches, hospitals,
charities and other
establishments, which have
shown the true spirit of this
country’s determination to
ease pain and suffering to
eliminate disease and filth
and to generate brotherhood
and prosperity.
To accomplish this, we
must all get out and vote. It
is here that you hear the
thunder of thecommon man.
It is appalling that almost 50
percent of our people are too
careless or too indifferent to
use what is one of Canada’s
greatest gifts - the right to
vote as they see fit.
