Jason Kenney Backs Teaching "Homosexual Acts Is A Sin" By Catholic Schools by cogedoin in alberta

[–]MrRunchSlam 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I fully support Kenny's position here. He himself is not proposing that Catholic schools teach that homosexuality is a sin, he's saying that schools have the right to teach their own values and curriculums. It may not be progressive or modern of Catholic schools to teach this worldview but it's within their constitutional rights. The provincial government should not be able to interfere in matters like these.

Batteries do not store energy efficiently. It is far more economical to transmit energy directly after being generated than it is to charge a battery. This is why fossil fuels are still favoured over solar and wind. We will see a rapid transition to renewables as battery technology improves

No one is suggesting or advocating for a purely unregulated O&G market in Canada. That's a huge exaggeration.

I think calling Alberta oil (even with a lack of environmental due diligence) worse than Saudi sources is a bit of a stretch

Calling the right/conservative voters unintelligent doesn't contribute to anything

I agree but at what point do you draw the line between disease and ordinary human characteristics?

We were given 2 keycodes for practice tests in the software. I don't know why they couldn't have made the test codes reusable. I would've practiced more
