    "Unless asking him to quote primary sources in an argument over scripture has just engendered an irrational hatred of me specifically." I sympathise.

    "Do we need someone to shout "to the barricades!" or have somebody post a link to a good rendition of the "internationale?" I heard that initially, the Internationale (Eugène Pottier being the author) was meant to be on the lyric of the Marseillaise. Then Pierre Degeyter wrote the lyrics...
    One of the families (I think Pottier) tried to get the copy rights paid at the time of USSR, but failed to get the monies. Now, I can't guarantee/veracity the reality of all this.

    He sounds like he's singing 'lick my arsehole', sounds about right!
    There are times I wish they’d just ban everything- baccy and beer, burgers and bangers, and all the rest- once and for all. Instead, they creep forward one apparently tiny step at a time. It’s like being executed with a bacon slicer.

    “Politics is the art of looking for trouble, finding it whether it exists or not, diagnosing it incorrectly, and applying the wrong remedy.”

    To learn who rules over you, simply find out who you are not allowed to criticise.

    "The purpose of a university education for Left / Liberals is to attain all the politically correct attitudes towards minorties, and the financial means to live as far away from them as possible."
