Visit to my local mosque 2023 – Unity Iftaar

“Unity Iftaar (evening meal during the blessed month of Ramadan to mark the end of the Fasting Day) has been running successfully throughout our branches and centres for a number of years.

But first, let us mourn over and remember the victims of the Nashville School Shootings.

Alex Jones talks to Silk and General Flynn and why this matters

I admit it, one of my regular, typically daily, watchman activities is to check out that day’s broadcast of the Alex Jones show (although, given there is generally some three hours of it, I focus on selected items, and do a lot of skipping over stuff given that Alex, more than many presenters, rants a lot and I need to cut to the chase).

A time to be tolerant; a time not to be tolerant

I just checked Ecclesiastes 3 and it ain’t there.
