Happy Easter Jeff, he is risen!

And in typical Easter fashion since this is a Covid blog the lockdowns on Easter, whether they are 6000 years ago or 5 years ago, traditionally don’t work so well.

Jesus Christ-ignoring the worlds first stay at home order.

How ironic that so many religious leaders did not defy the lockdown orders or the vaccine mandates.

Welby. He damaged the Anglican Church in the UK so badly it's probably gone.

As a default Anglican who adores the KJV and the Book of Common Prayer (and Miles Coverdale's translation of the Psalms) this deeply saddens me, but has prompted me in my 70s to dive deep into Catholicism (been at Buckfast Abbey on retreat for Holy Week) and will also attend some Orthodox services. Fortunate enough to spend 6 weeks in the summer of '68 on a school trip, driving from Leningrad to Odessa. Attended a couple of services in Orthodox Cathedral and was, at the age of 16, much taken by the power of their services.

Pope Francis immediately comes to mind. The leader of the Catholic Church put man before God. I pray he asked for forgiveness. God rest his soul.

Yikes.

Benn The Troll has called for the exterminations of Christians more than anyone on this blog with his constant yammering for Russians (and Ukrainians) to suffer mass deaths as he advocates US weapons to pour into the conflict.

For him to come here on Easter with more of his bullshit is just insulting to all of us who call for peace.
