What? - The earth NOT billions of years old?

“The best physical evidence that the earth is young is the dwindling resource that evolutionists refuse to admit is dwindling ... the magnetic energy in the field of the earth’s dipole magnet ... To deny that it is a dwindling resource is phoney science.”

Thomas Barnes, - Ph.D., Physicist

Forget democracy!

I see that in Ireland, voters will have to vote on exactly the same text as last time when they are iniquitously forced to vote again on October the 2nd where a clear, democratic result had already been achieved.
This is in spite of the promises made by the Irish government that they would be voting on something which was not the same.
Europhiles in every government put the interests of Brussels ahead of the interests of their own peoples.
They should be ashamed!

Big Brother.

Big Brother: Watching other people's lives because you don't have one!

Well, it might have worked!

John Wilkins, a British inventor, drew up plans in the 1640s to send a manned wooden 'chariot' to the Moon propelled by gunpowder, feather wings and springs.
Convinced the Moon was inhabited by a race of people called the Selenites, he was determined to visit them to set up trade links.

Hmm. Can never be proved but we must believe it, eh?

“The pathetic thing is that we have scientists who are trying to prove evolution, which no scientist can ever prove.”

Forcing Christians to lie?

'A doctor has been removed from an adoption panel because she refuses to endorse applications by homosexual couples. [Even though she has recused herself from decision-making in the handful of cases where such adoptions are being considered - so where is the problem?]
Dr Sheila Matthews, who is a Christian, was told that her beliefs on gay adoption were incompatible with equality legislation and council policies.
The paediatrician had asked to be allowed to abstain from all voting in cases involving same-sex couples.'

1] Such adoptions are wrong.
2] Even if you consider them to be right, to treat this doctor's conscience as being of no worth, makes the authorities wrong anyway.
Northamptonshire County Council wins a LoonyTunesWatch coconut.

I know that many Christians will want to be on such panels. Are they to be forced to be 'economical with the truth'?

Should they be?

Situation ethics?

We are talking about the lives of youngsters compared to a 'white lie'. Can Christians ever tell untruths in righteousness?

I don't know. I do not pretend to although I am always profoundly suspicious of 'The end justifies the means' philosophies.

Koop.

Fusion mislaid?

Nuclear fission - atom-splitting - is a fairly dangerous procedure.
Nuclear fusion - the joining together of atoms to create energy - is apparently not.
For years we have been promised nuclear fusion - particularly cold fusion - as the panacea to all our energy problems and needs as a planet.
Okay. So where is it?

Ephesians 1:2.

Grace be to you, and peace, from God our Father, and from the Lord Jesus Christ.
Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who hath blessed us with all spiritual blessings in heavenly places in Christ.

Honestly. What is the matter with the man? He was wrongly given out, caught, yesterday. Fine. But he if he hadn't hit the ball, he was clearly out LBW in any case.

What a misery guts!

On July the 13th ...

On the 13th of July I invented a most realistic scenario about 'burglar Jimmy Bloggs' and the several thousand offences he is simply unable to commit if locked away for five years.
Further to that, if he is a druggie - which he may well be - the estimate for offences committed is very much on the low side. The scenario is far from uncommon.
But let us stick around 2,000 as a working total.
In any home the average number of occupants is above two, so his acts will have affected well over 4,000 people a large proportion of whom will have been aged, infirm, disabled. Moreover, in the single dwelling homes even more than the others, there will be a significant proportion who will feel unable to remain in that house and will choose to move.
In all cases: the householders feel violated; it causes massive inconvenience; it means inviting police all over your property and the victim will have to spend considerable amounts of time getting back to normal.
In most cases: it may affect future insurance cover; may require a variety of workmen onsite to repair damage and possibly to change locks; it causes endless paperwork and may well take months to settle down.
Householders feel obliged to spend their hard-earned cash on security systems.
It is little better in the case of non domestic crimes where it may be the final straw for some businesses working on the edge of a precipice and will often be a direct cause of unemployment.

I am not sorry! Bloggs should be facing an extremely heavy sentence in the region of ten to twenty years.
Ordinary people deserve the protection - his interests are trivial in the larger picture.

Hark, hark!

I must draw you attention to an excellent article on the decline of birds in our countryside by the irrascible Robin Page who majors on the tragic loss of skylarks.
Please note his comments on magpies which give good reason for their massive increase, although I believe that his estimate of 600,000 pairs currently is a woeful underestimate.


People are mildly amused and consider me a tad eccentric when I go on and on about the wretched magpie but this is a serious issue and these appalling creatures are part of a major problem which is wrecking our songbird population.
There are four major points to be raised:
1} Where are the Greens when you really need them? - They are twittering about leftwing issues, unproven science and capitalist wickedness.
2} The weak-willed, the soft and the terminally tender-hearted must accept a large proportion of the blame for not permitting proper 'management' of our wildlife.
3} The RSPB has weakened and lost the plot.
4} Destruction of habitats and use of pesticides are heavily criticised by the more 'right on' bird lovers and, to be fair, they are not wrong. However, their emphasis is wrong.

After all the madness, I can still be stunned!

'Witches, druids and followers of the Norse gods in police forces throughout the country have persuaded the Home Office to let them set up a support group.
The Pagan Police Association will help officers who cast spells and join midnight rituals to fit their beliefs around their police work.'

Please arrange correctly: "taken the asylum the have lunatics over"

A clear admission.

“We have to admit that there is nothing in the geological records that runs contrary to the views of conservative creationists.”

Sandhurst's shame.

'The senior chaplain at Sandhurst military academy has dropped the Apostles' Creed from Anglican services saying it might offend religious minorities.
The Daily Mail reported on 31st January that centuries of religious tradition have been sacrificed for the sake of political correctness.
Reverend Jonathan Gough dropped the Christian declaration of faith in God, Father, Son and Holy Spirit when he took office last month.
A fellow Chaplain said it had been removed 'to stop upsetting cadets who do not believe in God'. This is despite the fact that attendance is not compulsory. Non-believing Sandhurst cadets can and do opt out of church.'

In the words of Al Murray - "Sandhurst, SHAME on you! Jonathan Gough, SHAME on you!"

TWOCers - introduce fear!

Last night I watched Traffic Cops from Humberside and my heart went out to the police drivers.

Their faces and guarded comments said it all. The rules on pursuits have now gone from being lax and casual in the extreme to them ridiculously, often not being allowed to pursue at all!

Worse than this was their desperation when talking about how 'the system' deals with the conscience-free, adrenaline junkies they catch time after time and who are released time after time to offend and endanger innocent lives again and again.

Children as young as 11 are stealing cars and risking the lives of law-abiding people. To the do-gooders of course, they are misunderstood.

Their overweening arrogance at point of arrest could never have happened in the days of corporal punishment. I accept that this will never happen again and so we must work to bring about a Campaign for Real Sentencing.

There must be rigorous punishments; there must be real FEAR in these youngsters of what will happen if caught.

Bring back borstals; bring back approved schools.

For those over 16 - a five year mandatory, minimum sentence must be put in place for all drivers who engage in any police chases and two years for stealing a car; three years for burning one at the end of ' a good evening out'.

Being carried in a TWOCed vehicle must carry custody - every time! Youngsters will not be permitted to claim 'I didn't know it had been nicked' - it must be their responsibility to find out.

Our society does not need this epidemic. It can be cured - all that is needed is the political will to protect the public rather than the youthful thugs and chavs.

Totality.

Magistrates and judges are restricted in sentencing because of a principle which is a rather peculiar one - and one not known about by most of the general public.

Let us say that somebody has been convicted of: a motoring insurance offence, an MOT offence, licence offences, having a car in an unroadworthy condition and, for the sake of argument, a further half a dozen offences to cap it all off.

Phew. That little lot should tot up to quite a sentence, wouldn't you say?

Well, it doesn't! It cannot because of 'totality' which means that an overview must be taken and in effect, the only offence punished will be the most serious one and all others will receive an NSP - No Separate Penalty. So in this case, only the insurance matter will be punished and all the others will be ignored.

When I was on the Bench, I always tried to insist that the insurance offence would be punished at the higher end of the scale under such circumstances - but there were restrictions on that too!

If the offender is on a relatively low income, they would get points on the licence and a pretty small fine.

It also means of course, that somebody with a single insurance offence and no others will be sentenced identically to a thorough rogue - and that ain't justice!

Do not blame magistrates for appalling sentencing practices - quite often, indeed most of the time, their hands are tied.

John Hind.

The Bishop of Chichester has spoken of how Church teaching is being corrupted, likening it to a soup recipe which is changed little by little. Very few people notice and eventually it contains none of the original ingredients, yet goes under the same name!

Well. In these matters I'm a gourmet and so are many of my Christian friends and colleagues! [Good call, Bish!]

Global what?

Last Saturday was our school's Summer Fayre and naturally, we were very concerned about the weather in the runup to the event.
I went to the BBC weather site and five days before, it forecast heavy rain. The following day it also predicted heavy rain. With three days to go, it was light rain. By the Thursday, it was telling us that the weather would be rain-free. The day before and heavy rain was back on the agenda.
Very early on the Saturday it was to be light rain from 1pm.
IT WAS DRY ALL DAY. There was some late evening rain!

And we are told that scientists can predict global warming years down the line?

Professor Dawkins - again.

It is old. It is misleading. It is blatant propaganda to an atheistic and evolutionary cause.

It is also extremely disturbing that a series of lectures by Richard Dawkins, Growing up in the Universe has suddenly arrived in our school - unsolicited.

[Remember Dawkins - the vile extremist who has made positive remarks about eugenics and has also suggested that children of Christian parents should be removed from such homes? Remember too, the Dawkins who skulks and hides rather than debate openly with scientists who do not share his evolutionist views?]

His Royal Institution Christmas Lectures for Children apparently did not do sufficient damage back in 1991 so they have been re-released and turned into a freebie.

Cunningly sent towards the end of the Summer Term, it will clearly be shown willy-nilly to all sorts of classes throughout the nation because teaching in the last week is very difficult and 'popping on a DVD' is not!
