Has someone broken it?

- General breakdown of law and order and respect for other people in the so called secular society.
- In he field of religion: loony Islamic fundamentalists blowing themselves and other up; Christian monks fighting with each other in the Church of the nativity in Bethlehem at Christmas (can you get much lower?), loony Orthodox Jews spitting on little school girls in Israel.

So, where will the new morality come from? Is it inevitable that we are heading for a destructive future?

Are you having one last blast for 2011 or is this the first one for 2012 ?

In light of your last para I am leaving for the cave straight after posting this reply.

Since when did religion have anything to do with morality?






The older I get, the better I was

Advice is what we seek when we already know the answer - but wish we didn't

I've got a compass app on my phone. Do you think it will lead me down the wrong path then Dally?

If it's anything like the one on Mrs D's i Phone - yes, as it doesn't work!

To which "so called secular society" do you refer?

As for the "Christian" monks ... what do you expect from Christians? Observing the words of Jesus or something?






Freedom without Socialism is privilege and injustice.
Socialism without freedom is slavery and brutality.
