I lived in Spain as a a student shortly before Franco's death and had a good sense of how the country would descend into anarchy and possibly a new civil war when 'the caudillo' finally dropped off the perch. He had trained the son of the exiled Alfonso The Thirteenth to be King and his successor in order that his falangist movement should continue.
He would have soon been turning in his grave at El Escorial had he realised that the young King would abandon this course in order for the country to become a democratic monarchy.
I taught this fascinating period of Spanish history to 'A' level students for a lengthy spell.
He may have turned into a licentious old goat but the favour he did to the Spanish people was of inestimable value.
Self explanatory title. I abhor that nicey nicey, politically correct, pseudo-Christianity which almost always supports leftwing attitudes - which in most cases are profoundly anti-Gospel. This Blog supports persecuted Christians. This Blog exposes cults. This Blog opposes junk science. UPDATED DAILY. This is not a forum. This Blog supports truly Christian websites and aids their efforts. It is hardhitting and unashamedly evangelical so if it offends - please do not come to this site!
