Ted Haggard. A damn fine hypocrite
Posted in January 29th, 2009
by James in Uncategorized
So, Ted Haggard has been exposed as a ‘heterosexual man with homosexual attachments’ (his words on an Oprah show).
Isn’t it time for the church to leave people alone? Let them get on with their lives? To many members of the churches have been revealed as hypocrites - pedophiles, bishops that support pedophiles and iin the […]

Posted in January 28th, 2009
Today Baroness Murphy - Dr Elaine Murphy in a previous life - came clean about her letter to the British Medical Journal in 1974, where she reported that she had observed a case of Cello Scrotum. The disease doesn’t exist, she has now said, she sent the letter to BMJ for a laugh.

The higher-ups in the Catholic church are meeting today about 200 metres from my office - no, they didn’t come especially because it is my office, I just work in the university that is beside the one that they own.
They are debating what to do about the bishops that protect the child rapists. This time […]
What about Hilary?
Posted in January 21st, 2009
by James in Uncategorized
I was watching Obama’s inauguration live and my thoughts came back to Hilary Clinton. I favoured her in the Democrat run-off. I feel that she has some very fine views on healthcare and foreign policy. I felt that she had the weight of experience that is needed to be a good president of the US […]

It was a marsupial and therefore, much more closely related to the Kangaroo and the Oppossum than to any actual tiger. It was a predator that was top of the food chain in Tasmania and it went extinct because of […]
