I just took a look at a website that implicates various churches in the disappearance/ death of Canadian aboriginal children. If you're interested in seeing what I'm talking about, click here

I guess I'm not surprised at the content of the website, given that similar events have taken place in the USA, Australia, and elsewhere and have been swept under the carpet by many. Many of us are quick to point to other religions as a threat to global well being. But what about our churches? Is Christianity innocent?

I'm not suggesting a one-dimensional view of the church. I think religion brings alot of positives to the table. But it has also enabled alot of injustice worldwide. What do we do with this knowledge? How do we benefit from the good that religion has to offer while simultaneously limiting the damage that it causes?
