^I won't watch em cause I don't have the time, and I don't really need to watch a bunch of anti-American garbage right now.

I haven't been able to watch them yet. I'll try watching them or at least some of them, from my mom's computer later, she has DSL and it's easier to watch videos on her computer.

It actually is good if people can have enough of a sense of humor to be able to laugh at themselves sometimes, I don't think Matthew is attempting to insult anyone. Some of the parodies he's posted are funny. People can be idiots no matter who they are or where they live folks.

Whatever the case, this is just Internet stuff. :D

time...

Oh my word, we're a bunch of Yankee buffoons. I wish we would let Canada guide us with their wisdom, since their entire country is devoid of idiocy.

On the other hand, do you think our ignorance of Canada comes from it's relative unimportance in the global scheme of things?

Keep trying, little brother!

Let's not start the "Americans are arrogant and everything that goes wrong in the world is their fault" routine again please. It wasn't only Americans who were killed in the World Trade Center.

I would probably think the videos are amusing, I just haven't had the chance to watch them yet.

This is really a cultural thing. As a fellow Canuck, I think its hilarious.

But as the speaker at our church said yesterday,

"We're called to be Christians first. We are a nation of our own. We are not Canadians (Americans, Mexicans, etc..) Christians, we are Christians who reside in Canada, America, etc. We belong to the Kingdom of Heaven first."

It was a great message that really hit home.

Yes I see eye to eye with Petra Fan Canada... I dont understand why people from other nations have prejudice about each other, specially with us the Brazilians :cry: but firstly we are Christian living in different countries, so let the light of Jesus shine through us and make a difference in this world :D :D :D

It's not that I lack a sense of humour, or even that I can't take jokes that go against what I believe or feel...No, very much the opposite, but Matthew posts so much about the U.S. and hes always commenting on how bad this and that are etc...It gets old, and it gets annoying. How would he like it if I just spewed out garbage about Canada from now on?
