King Henry the 8th was a strange man, definitely not to be focced with, but in other ways released us (The United Kingdom) from the grasp of tyranny imposed by Rome, and Catholic dominance over the people.


Strange comment Tommy, are you implying Tyranny of Henry the 8th and dominance by Church of England was acceptable.  :eek

Do you know, Mark Twain is right


Ahh! again we have a difference in opinion and of course well ALL think our opinions are right and that is why we hold them, but there is also a great number of the populous that think Mark (In all his wisdom) was wrong, or in other words a Twat.


On of My favourites of Twain's famous sayings was:

Whenever you find yourself on the side of the majority, it is time to pause and reflect.
 
Don't you just love debate?

"The modern word 'Tory' is actually a 15th century Irish word used to describe those of the Cavalier persuasion in a derogatory sense." the Irish are thick as so counts for nowt, and, I can say that 'cos I'm half half Irish.........and a bit thick :look .

My question would have to be what percentage of the population were literate in 1611? So did translating it really change peoples understanding of the scriptures or did most still rely on biased readings during church services?

Really - I think your question should read - what percentage are literate in 2017?  People are like sheep - and will follow accordingly

And I would like to see your wife tits.  :rollin :rollin :rollin

Is that where the river divides Robbo?
Hi Tommy,
What looks like a fork in the river below the bridge is actually the River Mole and River Ember running into the Thames.That point of land behind Hampton Court rail station is known as Cigarette Island. Nothing to do with fag butts, just the way the bankside forms a thin point. :)


Hey Robbo thanks got the info matey, Knowing it is a point where more than one river joins makes sense, to start with I thought it was a loop in the Thames at that point forming like an Ox Bow. Cheers buddy much in the way of fish in that part before it gets to the polluted bits, although being quite tidal at that point probably does not make a lot of difference

Ho Ho! we could get into a right old discussion here about the C of E verses the C of R.


I personally thing that it was Rome that dominated the people of this country (Pre Henry 8th) by refusing to let the masses read the Holy Scriptures for themselves, not many of the working classes in England could read Latin.
So only the priests, cardinals and all the others that held office within the Catholic Church had access to the 'Word of God', so, they said what was acceptable and true. the way they discerned it.


Henry 8th brought about change even if it was for his own ends (I'm not saying he was a good chap) he kicked out Roman Catholicism and formed the Church of England, but it was King James that really opened the the Church up to the people as he authorised the creation of 'The King James Bible' it was completed in year 1611 in Cambridge by scholars, it was written in English for the masses and not in Latin as the Catholic Bible was at that time.


I just chucked some more coal on the fire me thinks.   
Yes. But I've never fully bought into Weber's Protestant work ethic and it's influence on modern capitalism. Cavalier or Roundhead? Interstingly The modern word 'Tory' is actually a 15th century Irish word used to describe those of the Cavalier persuasion in a derogatory sense.


Tory = Penalcranium = dickhead or imprisoned brain, what can anyone add to that.  :eek


Actually I make it up as I go along  :lol

Well I'm not saying I'm thick but I was once reading stones at a nearby cemetery when I came across a bloke who was 152!
His name was Miles from London.

Hi Tommy,
A bit late in replying to your question but spent the last two days of the coarse season up on the wondrous river Wye, which is Ogris neck of the woods. Regarding the river at Hampton Court , it's not tidal there as Hampton Court is between Teddington and Molesey Locks, so usually the flow of the river is always towards the sea, providing there has been sufficient rainfall. Below Teddington Lock is tidal, although there is a "half lock" just below Richmond, to ensure there's always a sufficient depth of water in the Richmond area for navigation, irrespective of the state of the tide. The last few years the fishing has dropped off in that area, mainly due to the EA running off any rainfall as quickly as possible, so without decent flow the fishing suffers............Lecture over..............I bet you're glad you asked :lol



Hey Robbo thanks got the info matey, Knowing it is a point where more than one river joins makes sense, to start with I thought it was a loop in the Thames at that point forming like an Ox Bow. Cheers buddy much in the way of fish in that part before it gets to the polluted bits, although being quite tidal at that point probably does not make a lot of difference
