    Angels and Demons, the story of our state gov.

    But if we are to believe what is in the Holy book, be it Christian or any other religion there are good basic rules for life in there.
    The Ten Commandments even to those of no belief are a simple set of rules which if followed can make life much easier to understand.

    Of course there will always be those who will take it to extremes, not just those in funny clothes, there are a number of others.


    There was if the story is correct a female Pope at one time, Pope Joan!!
    But in the majority of religions it is mainly men who lead, not many female vicars or priests and have never seen any in the Jewish or funny cloth lot.
    In fact all we see of them is their male a**s up in the air.
    Best to be at the front row if Mustapha had a bad curry last night.
    Happy daze John in Oz.

    Looking through this old post and Roslyn Chapel which I visited on one of my visits to uk.The guide who was taking tourists around and trying to explain the various items as bearing Masonic meanings was incorrect . So after the tourists had departed myself and another American tourist who was also a mason attempted to correct him. His excuse was he was not a Freemason and was told what to say. There are freemasons on site and most have different ideas on what should be disclosed , so to keep harmony is best to keep quite in most cases as may upset others. I can say though I was a practising mason for well over 20 years , and wish it had been longer. I attained master of a Lodge , Preceptor and Prior of a knights Templar Lodge, and first principle of a Royal Arch lodge. And as one mason said on here when asked the reason why he was in replied .. it was for making Good men Better. Which most masons would endorse. Cheers JS

    John is always depicted in Hollywood as the evil younger brother of Richard you know the one with the Lions Heart. So would have to change my name to Dicky maybe, then it would likely be converted to Tricky Dicky like an American President not so long back. Not for me the echelons of upper Society, too much unpaid overtime. Cheers JS

    But think of the perks, get to meet people you do not know, eat foods you do not like, drink grog, whoops jus drink it all,
    The you will have some looking at you with something else in mind, but if you did not like all of this just reopen the Tower.
    Happy daze John in Oz.

    Apart from it being shrouded in legend and mystery, are the original Crown Jewels of Scotland lying somewhere in the vaults underneath the Chapel.

    All manner of weird thinks live under chapel floors.
    Dig one up at your peril.
    Some one dug up a car park in Leicester and found the skeleton of Richard 3.
