Watching as the Taliban take over Afghanistan after all the blood shed is a loss to the world unless the Taliban can move forward in time and accept a new Afghanistan where men and women are equal and every child has the right to an education. It is only through education that the world is protected whether it be millions of people or only one. Although I would be called a deeply religious person; religion can not be the controlling factor in our lives where the rights of all individuals are concerned. It must be the democratic right of people to choose those who will lead us. Praying to God that he will help the people of Afghanistan to find a way forward that leads them to the life that they want but only they can determine that only they can defend themselves against a ruthless villain within. I do not believe we will ever get involved in such a project again. We need our military here helping to maintain Canada during the many plagues that strike us which is fires at the moment. We need our military to help patrol the high seas protecting the world from pirates. God willing we will never fight a World War again where our military must once again fight an adversary bent on world domination. But we must always be ready for that nonetheless and we will be.
This Blog will talk about researching my English ancestors from Canada but also the ancestors of our son in law whose families stretch back far into Colonial French Canada. My one name study of Blake and of Pincombe also dominate my blog these days.
