A beginner’s guide to theology.

Well, first off might I start by bidding you a good evening (or good night if you want to be pedantic), or indeed good morning if you've already changed your clocks. It has been far too long since my last update and I do feel slightly guilty, but university work has been a priority recently and has put me off writing to you for a while. Nonetheless, I'm writing now and on a topic which I promised to write about a few months ago, after I'd written my essay on it. I'm pleased to say that my Sources Continue reading [...]

Clegg in action – And by gosh did he make a good impression.

Wow! A political rambling?! It's about bloody time. I know, I've been very lapse of late and I think this is probably the first proper ramble I've had since the anniversary of Michael Jackson's death. My political fire has reignited and it's mostly thanks to the memoirs of ex-Business Secretary Lord Mandelson; reading The Third Man: Life at the Heart of New Labour has really spurred me on to get back into following British Politics. And what a day to rediscover my political passion. With Prime Continue reading [...]

The government, the recession and the miserable bastards who complain about them both

I'm sorry, but I feel well within my rights to have a bit of a bloody rant here.

Firstly, this would've happened next year under a Labour government, it's just that Cameron felt it better to reduce the deficit now rather Continue reading [...]

Genius at work.

Surrounded by books, my netbook and a cup of tea and laying on the biggest and comfiest pillow known to man, is there really a better way to work? I'm currently working on the plan for my next essay, Study on the New Age and Pagan Spiritualities. It's actually not as dull as you'd think and there's a lot more to the New Age and Paganism than weird "hippies" worshipping crystals and believing in karma - the history and philosophy behind it is really quite fascinating. I'll be sure to post something Continue reading [...]

Milliband strikes! Or maybe not…

Good afternoon fellow readers, how are you doing? I actually put off writing this blog until today as I thought the contents of the Trinity ramble may have fried your brains, if you'd read it. Even if not, I just thought I'd give a quick analysis (wrong word perhaps?) of this week's Labour victory in the Oldham by-election. I actually feel quite guilty. Being a member of the Lib Dems I get invited to all sorts of meetings and really cool things of the political type, one such thing included Continue reading [...]
