Quick Quiz
What do the Pope, Muslim fundamentalists and the Christian right have in common?
They all want to control women's rights to control their own bodies.
I am SICK of the constant barrage of news about this new pope business. I do not care. Britain is barely a Christian country any more, and disestablished the Catholic church centuries ago.
I do not want to listen to people prattling on about their imaginary friends. Jesus was a real live character from history. He might have been good. That's it.
Religion has caused more deaths in the history of the world than just about anything else other than disease and old age. People, grow up. You don't need a supernatural being to explain the world.
The end.

Imaginary Crimes
And real dimension difficulties! Sorry, Mr Webster. Can I have my physical chastisement now?

Snow over Britain
No, not that sort of snow. Though we have had plenty of that in the last few days.
I'm talking about the Snow family.
There's broadcaster and newsreader Jon Snow, who seems to have been a fixture on our screens forever.
Then there's his cousin Peter Snow, renowned for leaping about on out TV screens, especially at election times.
But Peter's son Dan is making quite an impression these days. He looks just like his father, wounds like him too. He's a history man, and was most recently on our screens from Syria in a documentary about the phenomenal history of the place. Brave man.
Quite a hunk too (though a bit young), a big gangly man like his father, at a mere 6'6".
The family legacy is assured.
