No mention of the Irish. Quite a UKIP rant about bloody fish coming up onto Our land 400 million tears ago tho.

[Peter Henderson]

who hated the Irish.

Depends of course what you mean by "Irish"

Not the Irish again. I posted the you tube clip cos it was really funny. To cheer everyone up and pour oil on seawater or whatever the saying is.

Watch the clip and chill. Stewert Lee is really funny and he is spot on about UKIP. I would not have posted it if there were anything Irish.

I don't want the Irish argument again. It is toxic.

I know Cathy. I was just being facetious

Yep, the clip was very funny. I agree.

Well Peter I'm taking no responsibility for this next bit of news and apologise in advance from the people of Redditch. It would appear that Redditch's premier creationist, loony vicar turned Elvis impersonator will be visiting NI shortly to bring peace and creationism via the medium of Elvis songs.

Sadly I kid you not
www.redditchadvertiser.co.uk/news/11103 ... rn_Ireland

He is the ex vicar of ChristChurch in Redditch. Complete fundie loony. Often in trouble with diocese. Responsible for at least two of the creationists in my school. Also the first person to bring AiG into Redditch. The truly insane rev Andy Kelso.

Left his church a couple of years ago to become chaplain of Worcester Rugby Club till some kind of road to Damascus style epiphany, directly from God - he was that kinda guy, the sort God chats to - led to him realising he could evangelise more effectively as an Elvis impersonator.

Anyway Peter he's currently wandering Belfast like a loon and will be bringing peace and prosperity. If you see him run as fast as you can in the opposite direction. He's not your sort of Christian. Too full of bile and biblical literalism and ego. If the link doesn't work just google Redditch advertiser.

Not strictly pertinent to creationism, but along similar lines. Holocaust denial, creationisms historical and political complement.
