Re: Worried
#19 Dave if you read my original post you will see there is no mention of religion. Politics is only mentioned in relation to myself as my views are not shared by the majority on site.
The purpose of the post was to ask for open , frank discussions be allowed to continue.

Re: Worried
One of the reasons there are general erections in most western countries is quite simple.
After a period of up to five years the jokes get a bit stale, the clowns loose their appeal so we elect the next lot in the hope they may be a bit funnier than the last lot.
But sadly after a very short time we find out the jokes for both sides are written by the same person, and the clowns get their make up the same way.
As for religion, I have heard they do it very well in the local church.
