Home · Briefed News · Tipping guilt |Praised be Jesus Christ|Laudetur Iesus Christus| Tipping guiltAbsolving guilt, green guilt, money guilt... an american cheapsteak, in a Canadian Magazine, treats us like children with the tipping guilt. I wonder who has that kind of guilt in Canada, while I don't think we have any guilt left, so perhaps we should defend ourselves from the american tipping out of guilt.Learn more... Absolving green guilt Guilt is a powerful tool. Almost daily we're bombarded with evidence of our contribution to climate change. Flown lately? You unleashed more than a tonne of carbon dioxide (CO2) into the atmosphere. Drive a car? That's six more tonnes. Short of curling up in a ball on the floor, what's a guilt-ridden consumer to do? Go shopping for carbon offsets, of course. Hundreds of carbon offset providers have sprung up in recent years as middlemen between those looking to make up for their environmental indiscretions and projects that reduce greenhouse gases. At least, that's the promise. As carbon offsetting grows in popularity among business leaders, some environmentalists worry the practice is making matters worse, since it tempts wasteful westerners to crank up their lifestyles with a clean conscience. What's more, a closer look at some offset programs reveals that a large chunk of the money consumers think is going to carbon dioxide reducing projects is actually eaten up by expenses and salaries. Maclean's asks, where's the money really going? Tipping is evil Suddenly everyone from the Starbucks barista to the dog walker has his hand out. Blame the decline in shame. In this week's Maclean's: Andrew Coyne's argument for abolishing the tip. 29.03.2008. 22:54 This article hasn't been commented yet. |
Prayer for All the Deceased
By Thy resurrection from the dead, O Christ, death no longer hath dominion over those who die in holiness. So, we beseech Thee, give rest to Thy servants in Thy sanctuary and in Abraham's bosom. Grant it to those, who from Adam until now have adored Thee with purity, to our fathers and brothers, to our kinsmen and friends, to all men who have lived by faith and passed on their road to Thee, by a thousand ways, and in all conditions, and make them worthy of the heavenly kingdom.
Eternal rest, grant unto them, O Lord, and let perpetual light shine upon them. May the souls of the faithful departed through the mercy of God rest in peace. Amen. |Letter of St. James|
