270)Blasts from the past: Hard copies of my favourite posts from my old blog; Canadian Vision TV documentary excellent IMHO.

As the new year begins to unfold I decided that I want to put hard copies of, instead of just links to, my favourite and what I consider to be my most important doctrinal posts from my old blog onto my new blog. The next few postings will reflect this.

On another note I watched the Canadian Vision TV documentary entitled "The Aga Khan-A Voice of Reason":

I came away from watching this documentary feeling very positive. My comment on the Facebook site describing this feature was:

"I watched this documentary on Canadian Vision TV on Sat Jan 5th at 10pm ET. It was thoroughly enjoyable. I was left with a warm and snug feeling at the end. Congratulations to everyone involved with this production":

I highly recommend that everyone either watch this documentary or, better still, purchase the dvd:
