Have a question you are struggling to get an answer to?
Arise Sir Perceval
Why on God’s holy earth was Gordon Brown overlooked in the New Year’s Honours List? After all, according to Time magazine editors, he was single-handedly responsible for saving the world economy during the 2007 Credit Crunch?
Bleak House
Have you any considered ethical response to the bleak situation in which we find ourselves, beset on every side by bad news in which freedom loving presidents are more and more compared to ancient figures from the past, and especially at the end of this 1347 style plague, and now rumours of wars, and even more urgently of talk among the right-wing republicans of first-strike use of the ultimate weapons?
Elegiac Tributes
“Be loosed upon the grey silent waves, and leave me to rest” - What is the purpose of Melancholia in poetic versicles in the modern mood? Is it a positive?
One swallow
It appears from your articles here that someone has swallowed a Dictionary, am I totally mistaken?
Benedictus - gratias
Is there something finally that you would like to say to a dying pope?
Persecuted Royal Ladies?
Is there some substance in the recent assertion of one of the royals that she is the most persecuted royal lady in the history of royalty?
Laws as Objets d’Art
In Psalm 118, we read the expression, "How we love your laws O Lord", but my Q-anon is this - Are we really and honestly supposed to love something as nasty and negative as a Law? And is this really fair since in all personal honesty, just to be brutal and honest, I cannot see how something as negative and nasty as laws can be the object of any kind of religious charity or emotional love in any way. Am I being fair, or am I being very much mistaken? Riddle me this?
The Onset of Wars?
Is the onset of a large War really just something directly willed by God as per the popular Russian expression - tis the will of God, no opposition please; or is there some dark quality again directly willed by the Lord Lucifer about it all, or is it merely the fruit of human moral evil and base motivation like the pursuit of rocket designs in Kazakhstan or oil in the Ukraine; whichever the Dickens is it?
Christians & Wars
Why does our own western island society hold to the view that public and social Christians should do much to avoid the initiation of wars?
Rejections?
Even before Covid came along I was rejected by my local clergy and unable to be anointed when going in for some hospital procedures - is there any reason for this in reality, or was it just some ecclesiastical hatred towards people of my working-class area?
Geographics
Why do ecclesiastical boundaries follow state boundaries so nearly and dearly? Is there a reason for such blind guides leading blindly or whichever? Is it state provision that is the leader or is it church custom that is the leader? Which is it?
Yep, they can
Maybe you could elucidate how privacy rights work especially for the rich and famous, and even for the not so rich and famous?
