Foreigners entering Britain

Note: this could have been a biggie (in terms of number of words) if I had elaborated upon my research and views. In order to keep it short, I include five appendices at the end, which one can check out to find out more, providing pertinent information and links to my writings and blogs, pre-empting questions readers might ask, e.g. “what do you mean by …” or “where’s your evidence for …”?

David Icke and “Perceptions of a Renegade Mind” (1)

A little while back a video link popped up on my You Tube feed with the title: “I’m back, but for how long” (click here). “I’m back” was someone I put at the top of the list of renowned conspiracy theorists – David Icke, who I have known about and followed for quite some time. “I’m back” also carried a sense of irony as Icke, along with a number of others, had long been excluded from YouTube for expressing views that its controllers disapproved off.

M*A*S*H – my all-time favourite American comedy

Recently, I followed an exchange where the discussion majored on the relative merits of British and American comedy. It made me realise that in the main I preferred British (but not all) over that of American comedy as it was more in tune with my own sense of humour. But there is at least one exception, and thus this blog – it is a series that I followed back in the day called M*A*S*H.

Going and belonging to a church, Church and churches, and the real Lord’s prayer

Remove it from the fire and it ceases to burn. Almost sixty years on, I want to reflect on what going and belonging (or not) to a church entails (or at least ought to) and some of the observations I have made during that time concerning my own and other’s church attendance.

Biased BBC Reporting, Donald Trump, and attacks on Christians in Nigeria

Please bear with me for addressing three subjects that interest me in the same post, recognising that folk who are not in my shoes (i.e. everyone) may see these as being unrelated. But as someone who is committed to blogging about things that matter, as I join the dots and continue to watch on my wall what is happening around me, and trying to make best use of time, that’s what I am about to do.

Derek Prince, Watchman Nee, and the importance of fasting

Some months ago, I started writing what now follows but decided best not to continue, until now. About the two personalities being referred to, I had little problem. But concerning a subject they both considered important, I did, and it seemed somewhat hypocritical of me to attempt to write about a subject that I had too little experience of, and so I decided that I’d wait until such time that I had.

Barnabas Aid, the Persecuted Church, Nigeria

Sadly, the widescale Christian persecution taking place around the world is barely reported. Recently, announcements by the Trump administration concerning persecution in Nigeria has demonstrated it is not being ignored completely by world leaders and is a hopeful sign that things might change for the better. In this posting, I raise the alarm, share what I am seeing and suggest ways to respond.
