[size=1em]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.[/size]
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

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 [size=1em]way they discerned it. [/size]
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.
[/quote]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

You mean like, people who spend a lot of money on a well crafted Titanium Akrapovic are very intelligent. And those who pick up a scraped can from a mate for next to nowt, cut it down so you cant see the damage any more, fit it to their bikes and find it sounds a lot better than they expected, are a lot further down the IQ tables?
Oh yes, and did someone mention tits?

Anyway . . . is religious faith a mental illness? I think it's a fine line between religious fervor and neurosis.

I believe in some cases it is, but in no way different to people's undying belief in sports teams, phone brands etc etc
I just think if people are let loose with their own opinions for too long and it starts to rot their brains. You need a healthy dose of argument/debate in life to stop you tipping your minds scales to far in one direction. Problem is once it's gone there doesn't seem to be a way back for these people. One minute your questioning why apple are charging so much for inferior products the next minute your on a street corner preaching psalms and having fisticuffs with anyone that disagrees....
