I Keep Singing The Same Old Song
I see Tony has given the Catholic adoption agencies a couple of years to stop discriminating against Gays. In the meantime I presume it's OK to kick out applications for gay adoption, requests to book the Church Hall for a Gay disco or, God-forbid, a civil wedding. Cardinal Cormac Murphy-O'Connor said he was disappointed, but said he hoped there might still be some way the agencies could "continue their work".I can't see how Mr Murphy-O'Connor, I really can't. After all it's the WORD OF GOD isn't it? I don't think there's a grey area that allows you to challenge what the Lord hath forbidden.
Mind you, with a bit of thought you could perhaps ditch this particular command - after all if you can make limbo disappear I reckon you can do anything. And there is a precedent - you completely ignore Our Father when it comes to eating shellfish, wearing different fabrics at the same time and stoning adulterers to death so I guess you'll be able to mealy-mouth your way around this as the months drag by.
The be-frocked apologist went on to add "the move risked forcing religious people out of public life"
Well here's hoping Cormac. Here's hoping. We could start with Tony and Ruth.
It's amazing how this unholy trinity of Chavdom are all claiming that Endemol/Channel4 edited Celebrity Big Brother to make them look like the boorish, ill-educated arseholes that they actually are. Foul-mouthed, uncouth, bullying and, yes, racist.
With a bit of luck they will all drift into the obscurity they obviously deserve, the obscurity that evidently frightens the life out of them.
Ken Russell got it right - along with the so-called punk rocker: in came the Goody family and out they went - sharpish.
Some pleasant bastard scratched practically every car on our side of the street the other night - including mine and Dearest's. Now I can understand burglary, theft and the like. I can appreciate the fact that, at the end of it, the burglar has something tangible, and usually useful, to show for his or hers efforts. But mindless vandalism? I don't get it. I'd actually punish it far more than the other crimes (which usually involve drug-addiction anyway). Tie 'em to a lamppsot with barbed-wire and invite the local community to abuse their human-rights for a week or two.
That'll learn 'em.

Probably the same tosser that had a crack at all the wing mirrors on my side of our street not so long ago.
I swear I am going to be forced to turn into Charlton Heston at the end of whatever that film is where he is holed up in a tall building....Duh. Red wine attack - brain's gone.
What Murphy-O'Connor doesn't grasp is that Jesus himself was as gay as a Sussex air steward. He gathered those twelve disciples around him to sate his gay hunger. Long hair, beard, Jesus sandals, flowing white robes? Course the bloke was gay! I mean does The Bible mention any girlfriends or couplings in the bullrushes down by the Sea of Galilee? Course not cos the guy was as bent as a nine bob note! He was even more gay than that Samaras geezer who plays for Man City!
Faery - I concur completely.
YP - You'll end up on a Fundamentalist's hit list if you're not careful.
I have to admit to mindless vandalism in my younger days. Once smashed every window in one of the local schools when I was about 12 or 13.
But that car thing . . . one of the reasons my brother moved last year was as a result of the cars being vandalised in his street every Friday and Saturday night after the pubs closed. So I don't think we can blame the youngsters for that! Stupid fucking morons (I can say that, cos I was one)!
I wouldn't place any kid with someone who admitted to being a practising Catholic. They are disgusting!
