Comes down to the Henry dilemma of a male Heir and the political power of the Catholic Church and their interfering in secular affairs.

Mmm… read that back to yourself.

I can't believe in something that says that if we don't all conform to some centuries old writings, we are damned!! Surely people should strive to be kind without being threatened!!

I like the thing he said to the guy who was promoting his religion as very tolerant. In reply Hitchens said the bloke was claiming that his particular brand of religion was very good because it was watered down and wasn't actually very religious at all

First trip of the year moho shake down. We normally do a few nights on a Park Dean resort in March, just to get away and because it's very very cheap in the first week they're open (last week of March). Makes a change from the Park Dean at Withernsea.

Many religions may come across as 'reasonable' in the UK, but you don't need to look too hard to find the zealots. And I am not just thinking of Islam here, plenty of other religions (including Christianity) have zealots available and just itching to get their hands on power.

Hartlepool - Redcar pretty interchangeable on the grand scheme of things

Be surprised if anyone else gets that.

One might almost think the problem is people, not religion.

Well that's the thing about faith isn't it...

You may be completely wrong and we could live in some bizarre world where we DO go somewhere.... unless you can go there, how would you ever know. It's far from impossible...

But it's nice to think there's something.... because the alternative is quite frankly terrifying.

Of course, because your opinion must be correct and mine must be incorrect.

How about mine is correct and yours is wrong ?
