Re: Tomorrow

I've just read DaveByTheSea's excellent piece on the Deficit of Compassion. Couldn't agree more. Sadly the Mammon Party has been handed victory, largely thanks to the very biased mainstream media - Murdoch & his cronies, plus the BBC. Did any of you realise there's been a major anti-Government d...

Re: Should Christ's Hospital Stop Being a Faith School?

I remember David Shephard coming to preach at CH in the '50s when he was also a Test cricketer. Who was the contact at CH who persuaded him? I do seem to remember this being mentioned somewhere. David Shepherd was / is an OB Oh really? Thought David Sheppard went to Sherborne. One learns something ...

And I wasn't aware that opinion, bile and anecdote counted as evidence, Rockfreak, but that's all we're getting! Ramble, ramble .. :roll:

Re: Politics

Rockfreak, I was just passing when I saw your post, & just had to tell you it's brilliant! You've said everything about this sorry lot that I've been feeling for a long time. Thank you! I suspect this Forum is suffering a slow but deserved death, so if I don't see you again, good luck and keep s...

Re: Should Christ's Hospital Stop Being a Faith School?

I've never understood what people mean by Faith. Faith in what? Resurrections? Virgin births? No evolutionary biologist or scientist has seriously challenged Darwin and all the findings have either endorsed or refined him. When opinion pollsters ask people whether they are Christian or not they nev...

Re: The Charge - has it been changed?

I've always believed that the Charge was a bunch of politically devious and self-serving crap. You can only work to extend the so-called advantage to a few. What about all those who don't get the advantage? This is the usual cunning right-wing propaganda which suggests that you can have all chiefs ...

Re: Politics

I got your incredibly long reply but don't see why it can't be on the Politics site. Rockfreak, you have my sympathy. I too have experienced such PMs. Best to ignore, I've found. Carry on, mate - you'll never convert this bunch, but it's such fun to watch them metaphorically turning purple in self-...
