Some of your readers may be familiar with the classic, gone-viral video of Dr. Albert Barrett lecturing on ‘exponential growth’ (i.e. compound interest) to a classroom of comatose college students in Texas. If you haven’t seen it, take and hour or so and view here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=F-QA2rkpBSY
Dr. Barrett takes the ‘down side’ view of compound growth. Cheers!
Can someone extrapolate or expand to the Canadian situation? Are we looking at a similar de-leveraging phenom in Maple Leaf Land giving the high consumer debt levels? Where are home/and prices headed and how geographically sensitive are the pressures?
Ashvin: I will look at your Picturing Christ blog. However, I wonder how any conscious (i.e. ‘awake’) person can select one spiritual tradition over another as more truthful, except on the basis of personal or family history or tradition. Spiritual traditions point to the same truth. Period. It’s great to acknowledge and follow a spiritual path; I do. Be ‘evangelical’ about that, but not that your chosen tradition is more true than another. ‘Evangelical’ yes; ‘evangelical Christian’ no. You immediately invalidate your claim.
