Canadian Culture

We would like to invite you to come to Canada and learn about our
culture and language. This is a great opportunity to experience all that
Canada and its people has to offer.

Live with warm and hospitable Canadian families, become a member of the
family rather than a tourist and improve your conversational English
skills!

We truly want you to have a great time!

 Homestay accommodation provides an excellent opportunity for you to
learn about Canadian culture first hand. The host family provides a safe
place for you to live while being immersed in the use of English
language and culture of a Canadian family.  The host family provides
students with breakfast and dinner daily as well as a clean private
room.

Many language courses are available and may be taken in conjunction with
the Homestay program.

Bowers Homestay Services offers this unique cultural experience
year-round. Tours are also available and  vary depending upon the
season. Such as a trip to a cottage in the summer or  skiing in the
winter.

Your home away from home…

THE INFINITY PRAYER

 q525.81.    THE INFINITY PRAYER                      

    how peacefully we rest at last – awaiting some "futuristic
intelligence" -(preferably our own, -but not mandatory in eternity).

   to one day "discover" in all of that endless and "eternal time" ahead,
-the "futuristic science and technology" -to be able to "recreate" our
bodies, our brains, and all of the "original memories" of ourselves that
our brains once contained.

   -so that we may "awake again" in eternity as our "original selves," -in
body, in brain, and in all of the original memories of ourselves, -as we
knew ourselves to be.

    in order to be among our friends and loved ones once again, -who will
also be "recreated" and awaken there, – for a joyous and eternal reunion.

    -and therefore our "immortal and eternal memories," -and those of our
loved ones, and our friends will not be "lost forever" in an "endless
sleep" -forever in eternity.

  -thanks to the continual and "eternal process" of learning, inventing,
researching, -breakthroughs and innovations – discoveries and
explorations, -which will continue forever in eternity.

   and thus will continue to forever "increase" the science, the
knowledge, the wisdom, -and the  powers of our "forever changing"
futuristic intelligence -forever in eternal time.
——————————————

P.S.  should "man" remain the same as man is now for all of eternal time,
-then the "above" nor his "conquest" of the universe shall ever become a
reality to him in eternity.

   the human mind can shape reality – it has proven itself of that a
million times through out the long history of itself. – if it can be
imagined by us – it can be "performed" some day by our futuristic
intelligence in eternity.

   -however "most" of what will be accomplished and performed through
"futuristic science" by our futuristic intelligence through out eternity,
can never be imagined (or known to us) in our times – no matter how hard
we may try to imagine it all.

    we can only imagine a "small sample" of what the "new" science and
technology of millions of years from now will be like – (not to mention
the many billions of years yet left into eternity).

    – thus the "above mentioned" -(great as it is and "impossible" for us
to accomplish with our current science in our times) -will not be their
"final or greatest accomplishment" for all of eternal time.

    -perhaps not even "time travel," -or their existence in a different
"energy form," -or even their one day learning the science, knowledge and
wisdom of god in eternity. -since these things we can imagine in our
times.

  – as we have become the "futuristic intelligence" of our ancient
primates through our "continual increase" in science and technology.

   in millions of years from now we shall be viewed similarly as
"primates" to our futuristic intelligence -as they "also" continue forever
in eternity increasing their science, their knowledge, their wisdom and
their technology, which will be "light years" ahead of our own.

            -THE INFINET FUTURISTIC SOCIETY  

  -learn more about your status in eternity  -aliens, artificial
intelligence (AI), "time travel," THE FUTURISTIC GODS, the future of our
intelligence in eternity, -and much more.
  -read us at "ALT.SOCIETY.FUTURES" newsgroup. (coming soon).
