They still use the Napoleonic Code. What do you expect?

Yet, Quebec still use Napoleonic Code and doesn't love the Bible at all.

Well... your legislative chamber does have a crucifix on it's wall... so maybe your less different than you think... Wink

Anyway, amen to this proposal...

Welcome to nominal religion. Quebec people love crosses and saying than they are Catholic, but churches are empty and religious observance is very low. As someone already said, they are only Catholics in polls and while filing their census form.

So Max what do you think I'd be like if I was from Quebec?

I actually remember a Christian hardcore label based in Montreal vaguely. And the Christian hardcore scene is almost exclusively Protestant. You'll find more atheists than Catholics at a Christian hardcore show.

Would depend of your first language. If you were French, you would be one of those atheists living in the trendy neighbourhoods of Montreal.
If you were English, I think it's likely you would have left Quebec after your studies to go to Toronto or Vancouver, since future is quite bleak for unilingual Anglophones in Quebec. If you liked French, you would stay, probably living in a trendy, but not wealthy English area or perhaps a trendy French area. For religion, I would suppose United Church of Canada or atheism. Trendy, liberal charismatism is quite rare in Montreal.

Well upon doing some searching I did find this: http://www.vineyardmontreal.com

It also appears there are actually quite a few Anglican churches in Montreal.

Yes, Anglican is the main protestant denomination in Quebec, but it's very mainstream and traditionnal, so not for you.

For Vineyard, I said trendy, liberal and charismatic. It's charismatic, I doubt it's trendy or liberal.

I go to such a Vineyard. But I know they vary widely, some are quite conservative. But those are also mostly in the south. I'm guessing in Montreal it would definitely lean more liberal.

And the only person who's Twitter I subscribe to and get texts of is a hipster Christian blogger in Brooklyn, and she's an Episcopalian. So who knows she might have some sort of Canadian equivalent. Wonder what Nathan would think of her actually...

It's a good thing Max actually responded positively to this and it resulted in a somewhat interesting discussion about Canadian religion. Otherwise even I would've zapped you for such an attention-whoring threadjack.

Kindly get back on topic. Now.

I can't help but think that modern social conservationism has morphed evolved into institutionalized ignorance.

Fixed for maximum creatonist outrage.

Come on, 29% of us are already obese. Do we really want to exacerbate that problem by coming out and making a state fast food?
