Victim of Discrimination, Prejudice, Hatred, False Accusations and Harassment  

I Ray Wegner have decided to publicly defend myself and my record. This is due to persecutions I have had to face.  These persecutions are ongoing, and have not just come upon me recently. 

You judge a person on their record - on what they have done, or not done in the past. You do not judge a person on what they might do, or on what they could potentially do, or on what we may feel or perceive they will do. You judge a person on concrete matters they have or have not done in the past. That is only fair and honest. 

My Record

1. Have never been in trouble with the law. There is no criminal record. 

2. Have never been jailed or imprisoned. 

3. Have almost a perfect driving record, except for a few minor speeding tickets, and once for not wearing a seat belt (the seat belt had jammed a while before and I had to cut it to get out - and had not fixed it yet when the police stopped me). There has been only one minor traffic accident where it was my fault - where the insurance company had to pay out damages. 

There is the letter and spirit of the law. 

Driving safely is an art, and you need to flow with the traffic. Driving too slow can be a safety hazard. As well driving with a lack of confidence, and with a fearful attitude and being over cautious can result in accidents. 

4. Have never once smoked marijuana or taken any illegal drugs. 

5. Have never been charged of anything by the police, except as pointed out those few minor speeding tickets and not wearing a seat belt once. 

6. The police have never been called to my home due to any disturbance within my home or anything like that. 

7. Have almost a perfect record as far as being a law abiding citizen is concerned during the past forty years or so. 

I do not pretend to be perfect though, and I have done some silly, rebellious things when a kid, but generally speaking my record is an excellent one, especially during the past forty years and especially after my baptism at age 30. My record during the past 40 years is almost a perfect one. 

8. There is no previous, recent or present record of family violence within my own immediate family (myself, my wife and two children). 

9. I teach people that we should all respect the laws and the authorities and cooperate with the police. 

10. I am a responsible gun owner, and my 30-30 and .22 rifles are legally registered. 

11. My record as a honest businessman is almost perfect. If you can find someone, or anyone who has been cheated by myself in business, or in a business deal - then I'll eat my boots. People who have done business with me know that they can trust me to be honest with them. 

Have never cheated anyone in a business deal. 

12. I do not promote anything illegal on my web sites - my home page .

13. Have never hired the services of a prostitute, and have never consorted with prostitutes. 

14. Have never hunted wildlife illegally. 

15. Have carefully obeyed the noise by-laws, except for a few extremely rare circumstances, like when at times the muffler on my car broke and there was no time to get it fixed right away. Have never been charged with breaking the noise by-laws, and have never received a warning from police in this regards. 

16. Have never been caught riding the LRT without a valid ticket or bus pass. 

17. Have been very diligent in respecting my neighbours property and teach my family likewise. Naturally there have been times when I have unknowingly trespassed on private property, and there is of course the letter and the spirit of the law. 

18. Have always paid my bills. 

19. Have never had any credit card problems, and have never had to declare personal bankruptcy. I have never run a business which went bankrupt. 

20. I have never been an alcoholic, and my drinking has never caused me or anyone any problems. Never once. No accidents caused by drinking - no violence caused by drinking - no nothing. But I have enjoyed drinking beer with the guys, and have downed my fair share of alcohol. Right now I have stopped drinking alcohol for about the past 10 years or so - and do not drink at all except when we have some wine on the Passover each year.  This may change, but right now I have no real desire to start up drinking again. 

21. Due to circumstances I was forced to stay at home and raise my two children when they were small. So I understand all about raising children. I was the one who got up at night when the kids were small. 

This was a very positive and happy experience for me - raising kids, and it was probably the best job I ever had. The only problem was the financial end of it.

Yet there are some women out there who have seriously problems relating to and dealing productively with men, who would deliberately disregard and ignore all the years I spent raising my small children as a full time parent. They love to criticize and condemn, but forget about all the positive work I have done with children. 

22. There are those who would maliciously claim I am an intolerant person, but that is absolute rubbish. My web site is done in the spirit of freedom and respect for democracy. I respect other people's view points and opinions - they do not have to agree with me. I am the champion of liberty within the rule of law. 

My record shows very powerfully and clearly that I respect other people's opinions and viewpoints. We can agree to disagree. However, I do not go along with lies, prejudice, discrimination and hatred, and am not afraid to expose these matters. 

23. My record shows I am respectful of my families right to free moral agency. I do not force my religious views on anyone. I believe in freedom and am not a control freak. 

Naturally when the children are small parents do have the right to educate their own flesh and blood into their own traditions, culture and religion. This is a right we here in Canada grant to all parents, be they Muslims, Catholics, Hutterites, Baptists, Buddhists, and whatever cultural or ethnic background they may belong to. We respect native tradition, and would not object with aboriginal parents teaching their kids the ways of their tribe, and the customs and traditions of the elders. 

It is the same with me. However, in my religion, which is biblically based, my God has given people free moral agency. So once the children are older - their God given right of free moral agency needs to be respected, and I would never, ever demand they follow the same religion that I do. If they want to that is fine, but they are perfectly within their rights to reject the religion I follow, and to follow whatever religion, or belief system they want. There is absolutely no political pressure placed on them by me to follow the same religion I follow. 

If you love someone - you set them free. If they choose freely on their own will to belong to the same church I do, and follow the same religion I do then that is fine - it is their choice. 

I realize the kind of freedom, and free choice I offer to my kids is a foreign concept to my control freak enemies, who would try and control every part of my life and the lives of the public, even our thoughts. How sad and twisted these people are. How insecure, and unsure of themselves, and their belief system.  These people have very little confidence in their belief system, if they feel compelled to force their twisted logic, views and ways on others. 

The problem with so many of my enemies is that they are indeed control freaks, and they are trying to use their power to control me , and shut me up.  My suggestion to them.  Grow Up ! 

24. I have been accused of being dishonest by my enemies. 

Have I ever lied to you ?  Can you or anyone find anyone I have deliberately lied to in the past 30 to 40 years ?  

My God demands I be honest. If I am not then I am in trouble with Him. And He is a whole lot bigger, and stronger than me. So I do not want God angry with me, and believe me, He would be very upset if I started being a liar. 

And God understands that we all make honest mistakes.  After all, if we were all perfect and without sin, then Christ would not have had to die for our sins. If we were perfect, we would not need a Savior. However, we are not perfect, and we do need a Savior. I am not perfect, but I try hard to follow God, and one thing God expects from me is honesty. 

In my judgment a lot of people hate me because I am a Christian and am trying hard to follow God - and because I am honest. 

These matters are in my opinion just symptomatic of the corruption in Canada and here in Alberta. This corruption has resulted in law abiding citizens too often being treated more poorly than the actual criminals. Where Christians who strive to follow God's ways as explained in the Bible, are too often in my opinion treated worse than criminals, and in my judgment are actually being accused of being criminal.

This shows to me how Canada has become a sick, unjust and unfair society.  A society where around 80 % of the population identifies with the Christian faith, yet where persons (like myself) - who profess to be genuine followers of Christ, are too often subject to abuse, hatred,  prejudice and harassment just because we try hard to follow God's ways as explained in the Bible. 

 Isn't it time we created a society here in Canada and Alberta, which is free, and where Christians can practice their religion in peace and be free from harassment and discrimination ?
