BC Legislative Session Starts With A Prayer?

No, that was not appropriate.  This stuff is meaningless to me – and although graceful hogwash by any other name – I want our politicians to be accountable to me and everyone else they claim to represent, the people in BC, and not some imaginary metaphysical authority. And all this would in essence be harmless if it wouldn’t be for the fact that elsewhere in the world people are appealing to similar “higher” authorities when they blow themselves up in public while killing hundreds of innocent people. This – for me- brings the entire concept of a “higher authority” in to question, wouldn’t you say?  It is time to grow up as a species and accept full responsibilities for our own actions; there is no one else in charge here.
