  • The Brits are almost as popular as their masters, the Jєωs
    "Some preachers will keep silence about the truth, and others will trample it underfoot and deny it. Sanctity of life will be held in derision even by those who outwardly profess it, for in those days Our Lord Jesus Christ will send them not a true Pastor but a destroyer."  St. Francis of Assisi

    I’ve noticed!  :laugh2:

    Most English don’t care much for the clipped though. It’s only the elites like Boris who give themselves to the mohel for brit milah.

  • Geographically incorrect caption, but gotta love that flag!

    I was looking at Old Glory flying the other day and was visualizing such a flag, thinking "what if...?".

    It's also worth noting, that our flag would then incorporate a version of the Christian Cross.  One has to wonder if this ever comes top-of-mind to people in the various European countries --- and there are several --- that have a similar depiction.

    I didn't know BoJo had been koshered, TBH I'd never given it any thought, no reason to, no desire to, still have no such desire (ewwww!).  I thought he had been baptized Catholic.

    Don't the royal men have that done too?

    If Boris is going to have anything "snipped", he needs just to shave his head.  It wouldn't make him look like any more of a goober, than he already does.  I went the "full monty" WRT hair a couple of years ago, one of the best things I've ever done for myself.  Hair is overrated.

    Well put.

    I have to wonder what it would look like, if what are now the USA, Canada, Australia, New Zealand, and the various island colonies (Bermuda, Anguilla, the Falklands, et al) as well as places such as Jamaica, Barbados, et al, and of course Mother Britain, were all one big United Kingdom.  That'd be one pretty formidable country, one upon which the sun would barely set.

    (I've deliberately excluded the larger, continental, non-European British-ruled countries such as India, Kenya, Nigeria and so on.  Not sure where Liberia would fit into all this, assuming it would even have existed.)

    Ha,
    maybe Lew will answer my question. 
    How many times will you be shot at before you resort to violence? The American colonists number was 3.

    How many dead and wounded will you suffer before you act to stop it. The American colonists it was 9 dead and a dozen wounded. (Two of the wounded were unarmed provincials and die from their wounds)

    How many towns with their homes and churches will be looted before you've had enough? The American colonists it was 2.
    Pray the Holy Rosary.

  • And now for another installment of who's the villain.

    Civil unrest in Wexford county Ireland was bringing the heavy hand of the Regulars to town. In a bid to spare the town from its sworn defender, the English Crown, loyalist Fr John Murphy had the men of his parish sign oaths of loyalty to the crown (which is in and of itself immoral as loyalty to a man who claims to be the the head of the church when he is not pope is gravely sinful). The Wexford men were given 14 days to surrender all weapons but the collection effort yielded few firearms (mostly because the poor Irish just didn't have many). After only 3 days the commanding officer became impatient and ordered troops door to door. Looting, beatings, floggings, and shootings of the Wexford men ensued, even before some had time to comply. After 170 homes and the church had been burned down the Wexford people retreated into the fields to be spared the brutality. Fr Murphy now counseled the men to fight. 1000 men now with only 50 firearms assembled and after a few short surprise victorious skirmishes, the Wexford men were slaughtered by massive infantry assaults and cannon fire. Fr John Murphy was executed for being a traitor.

    The loyalist has to rejoice that swift justice was met out to this Irish rabble and the traitorous catholic priest was murdered.
    The rest of us know who the real villain is.
    Pray the Holy Rosary.
