1) you don’t really believe that the troubles in NI was about religious doctrine do you ? 2) he never said he was his employer . People in NI differentiated themselves based on their religion and discriminated against and in the most extreme cases sought to kill the other tribe. Some people of Muslim faith differentiate themselves from say people of Christian faith and seek to discriminate against and in the most extreme cases seek to kill them. It’s exactly the same. Red worked for the security services - in his case the Army in Northern Ireland just as a Stagecoach bus driver in Stafford works for Stagecoach. Red claimed he is the security service. That’s weird just as it would be weird for our driver to claim he is Stagecoach. Pillock. Spoken like a true civvy. |

They didn’t kill each other because they thought each other were heretics . It was about resources and historical hatred . The stagecoach analogy is just wrong. |

On the contrary Bentley, it’s exactly the same.
And the Stagecoach analogy is spot on. That too is exactly the same.

Perhaps you could explain why the Stagecoach analogy is “completely wrong” in your opinion

No we are not France - but we should follow their excellent example By which you mean, we should set up a dinghy service and offload the migrants back to France? An old friend of mine lives in France now. He says it is a top place to live. You have work there, you have 2hr lunch breaks, you have top wine, amazing bakeries, decent restaurants, friendly neighbours, top health service...
It's this country which is knackered.

It's this country which is knackered. Like any country, it rather depends where you live. My son lives in rural south France, it's a million miles away from the violence and crime of Marseille or Paris, yet it's still France. |

I'd advise strongly against the government attempting to re-write scripture. I would advise the government to consider whether their laws are in line with scripture, After all, theft and murder are straight out of the 10 commandments. I'm not suggesting you're wrong in what you belive, and I'm not patronising. I am however suggesting that god, any god, is man made. |

My son lives in rural south France, it's a million miles away from the violence and crime of Marseille or Paris, yet it's still France. He travels all over France. He's got a truck which he converted for living in. I don't believe he goes to Paris though, although I could be wrong. He does a fair bit of work for farmers and vineyards etc and it is well paid and you can just ask around a few locals and you have as much work as you want. He says the locals are great and will invite him to dine with them. The best thing is there is no stress and the cops leave you alone too. |

Once upon a time we were travelling in France when our daughter developed a dental emergency in a very small town on a Sunday. One of the locals kindly found a dentist for us who came and opened her office and performed a minor emergency procedure. For this level of service we expected to be charged a huge amount. The bill was 26 Euros. |

Makes you wonder why tens of thousands flee the place and come to the UK every year... |

Talk about Christianity.
I was walking down a main Street in Manchester city centre.
Yesterday
And seen a lady in a long purple robe.
I went up to her and asked if she was COE
She said yes she was from the Cathedral.
And told me it was ash Wednesday and put a cross on my head .
It seems not long there was uproar in the COE over woman preacherseeking.
As for Evangelism it shows you can do.it in a licenced perlite manner
