Elon Musk derides the biblical exhortation; Peterson doesn’t interrupt to correct. Surely it is the logs in eyes that blind people. What about endorsing an ‘eye for an eye’ for Two Tier Keir?
Excellent exposition (sic) of the highly-significant contrasts between foundational elements of, respectively, the Hebraic worldview, rooted in the Torah, the Messiah's teaching of the Way and the multi -tiered Babylonian system, so eagerly embodied by confessed "atheist", Starmer, whose actions ruffly betray him and his allegiances.
Enjoyed this essay... it is well-known how difficult it is to allow for the passage of time in understanding culture and ethics, and yet we seem to be getting far worse at doing this too. George Santayana warned of the dangers of not learning the lessons of history, to which Sting added his blunt assent: "History will teach us nothing." How sad it is to admit that.
Mostly good, thanks! I had a bad bike crash on the Trans-Pennine Trail while in Manchester over the Summer and cracked a rib, but it's gradually healing up now I'm back in Tennessee.
Sorry to hear that happened on your visit to old Blighty... and meanhwhile, in other summer news....our neck of the woods has become rather too well known these days (Southport).
Aye, hasn't it just. I have a friend from Southport, so I spoke to him about it while I was over the pond, and got a very different take (unsurprisingly) than the one in the media.

Many thanks for your interesting comment!

Stay wonderful!

As indeed you should. It's on my list of things to write about.
