If its anonymous then it's not really a valid opinion. </p> <p> I like it, and thanks for the generous hat tip! Agree with Blair (well not with Blair more about the swap). </p> http://newsbiscuit.com/forum/topic.php?id=56946#post-165053 Tue, 26 Feb 2013 17:03:27 +0000 Sinnick 165053@http://newsbiscuit.com/forum/ <p>Yes, Tony Blair would have been better - it brings the reader back to the political thread, which I only hinted at. </p> http://newsbiscuit.com/forum/topic.php?id=56946#post-165050 Tue, 26 Feb 2013 16:56:00 +0000 Bob 165050@http://newsbiscuit.com/forum/ <p>yeah maybe swap Allah for Tony Blair :-) </p> http://newsbiscuit.com/forum/topic.php?id=56946#post-165048 Tue, 26 Feb 2013 16:43:58 +0000 Sinnick 165048@http://newsbiscuit.com/forum/ <p>Thanks for the "crap" tag, whoever it was.</p> <p>I don't try for a full article very often because I know I struggle to get the structure right. I'm far better at non-creative writing. I'd much prefer to put some effort into something half-decent than present some of the poorly thought-out nonsense that often appears here.</p> <p>In this case, I think the idea is Ok, but I know it lacks something in the presentation. Because it needs to be topical, I subbed it anyway, knowing that the good-humoured folk around here would chip in with honest &amp; constructive thoughts. That's what's intended for this website.</p> <p>So, in the spirit of this place, if you don't like something and can't be bothered to be honest or constructive, just crawl back to YouTube where your witty repartee will be better appreciated. </p> http://newsbiscuit.com/forum/topic.php?id=56946#post-164985 Tue, 26 Feb 2013 08:31:12 +0000 Squudge 164985@http://newsbiscuit.com/forum/ <p>Lovely, except the headline (I'd have read it sooner otherwise).</p> <p>Has God now admitted that he was aware of indirect and non-specific complaints?<br /> A nice quote might be (petulantly) "it's always easier with the benefit of 20:20 hindsight"</p> <p>Is the Holy Trinity some sort of ecumenical Coalition, or a family business struggling in the current credibility crunch? </p> <p>I'd leave Allah out of this as you are probably in enough trouble. </p> http://newsbiscuit.com/forum/topic.php?id=56946#post-164932 Mon, 25 Feb 2013 23:06:50 +0000 Sinnick 164932@http://newsbiscuit.com/forum/ <p>Following several years of allegations and rumours in the Christian Times and Jewish Chronicle, God and his two assistants have finally admitted that they have got it wrong.</p> <p>This follows recent revelations in the popular press, where several Roman Catholic priests have been reported to be misusing their episcopal rings.</p> <p>In addition, the sudden resignation of Pope Benedict XVI has prompted further interest in his past record as a member of Hitler Youth, tolerance of paedophiles and intolerance of just about everything else; indeed, this has prompted a Mass debate in certain circles.</p> <p>God said he hadn't been aware of "certain goings on", but as CEO had expected his staff to report back to him. The Holy Spirit dismissed this since it was his job just to serve the wine. Jesus has also denied responsibility, reminding God that He's the Omniscient Being and really should have known what was happening.</p> <p>It is rumoured that God was considering standing down. Allah is said to be interested in the role.</p> <p>[hat-tip to Perks] </p>
