Thread Name: BS: All changed, changed utterly.
Subject: RE: BS: All changed, changed utterly.
It was very badly drafted then.
It would have been much easier to just correct that.
You would not have needed a referendum.


Thanks for the advice ;)

Joe Offer, of course I don't want all discussion on the Bible suppressed; I love nothing better than a rousing debate on the meaning of Strait Is the Gate. What I want is for every thread not to be dragged into the single obsession of Bible-lovers. Have a separate thread for us.

Otherwise every thread becomes like the 46A bus, when you're liable to find someone buttonholing you to talk about the true meaning of the Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse or the canons of the Elders of Zion. While I'm happy to talk about the former, at times, though not really about the latter - a step too far in loopiness for me - if a thread is started that's intended to talk about, say, the referendum on marriage equality, or, say, the vote for Scottish independence, or, say, the real meaning of the lyrics in The Maid of Aughrim, then that's what I want to talk about. Not the Bible. To have to talk about the Bible on these other threads, or page down, sighing, through the other strange obsessives' maunderings about it, annoys me.
