Civilized Bears…

WELCOME HOME, FRIENDS!
CivilizedBears.com is a Family-Friendly Freestead where all visitors can safely roam! You’ll want to read our Civilized Bears Stories…
“Visions of Love & Hope!”
Except for the occasional zealous Rant against Human cruelty to each other and our fellow animals — and against the willful, depraved destruction of fundamental treasures like our Sacred Earth and our Traditional Culture. And our precious Freedom hard-won for us by the blood of Our Own (Support our Veterans!) — this is a joyful Celebration of our living Green World, the Wild Places and All Creatures who share it.
And of living a life independent and free of the Machine.
We’re just a Down-Home country family enjoying that freedom. We do our best to ensure that the language used here is acceptable to most visitors.
We’re conservative in our life style and values, but make few political or ideological comments (we take for granted that you love Animals and treasure the Wilderness, or you wouldn’t be on this site). Your own views and choices are respected.
Civilized Bears Philosophy…
If you asked us for our personal philosophy, it would be Red Green’s “Remember, I’m pullin’ for ya. We’re all in this together.” Very Canadian, eh?
To be serious, it’s “John 13:34” — has been since childhood. Which is gettin’ to be a long time ago.
