a civilised debating space for the exchange of information and views about politics, society, and the human condition.
About Me
- anticant
- London, United Kingdom
- anticant is the blogname of a lifelong free speech and civil rights campaigner. A lot of his life since WW2 has been taken up with battling against cruel and over-bossy laws, censorship, censoriousness, and Nanny Knows Best types. Now elderly and in poor health, anticant hopes his memories and thoughts will be of interest to those engaged in today's struggles for freedom, democracy, and a more hopeful tomorrow. e-mail: anticant@hotmail.co.uk

You have a new job as a publicist, I think.
Funny you should say that! Last night I dreamed I was doing a Max Clifford for President Palin on her first visit to these shores. For a start, I told her that British pitbulls don't wear lipstick - it would be like cross-dressing for them. At that point, God instructed her to fire me.
Long live the next President-elect of the US, whichever Obama or McCain, because there is nothing more fanatic than a priestess. The lesser of two evils, because Washington seems to be bound to become the second Vatican State in the world, or should I say the third Church cradle?
Yes, it's increasingly looking as if much of this century is going to see a re-run of the Crusades.
Heaven help us all!
Enlighten up you guys.
You are giving even Postmodern irony a bit of humour back.
There won't be much postmodernism around when this preneanderthal lady is installed in the White House.
Sounds a bit like an Adam and Eve story to me.
"Pray for our military men and women who are striving to do what is right also for this country; that our leaders, our national leaders, are sending them out for a task that is from God. That is what we have to make sure that we are praying for, that there is a plan and that plan is God's plan." the Alaska Governoress is quoted as saying.
Examine the syntax closely:
"...[W]e are praying...that there is a plan and [that] that plan is God's...."
In other words, psychologically, the latent doubt is actually very close to the surface. A typical reaction formation then is to act frantically to 'make it so'. In that internal conflict, then, lies the danger, namely /doubt/.
Either you need Jesus or you don';t1
Me mum always said 'them as NEEDS to goes to church!'
