You should check with your church at the castle to see if, like most church's they recognise the queen as the sypreme governor of the church, otherwise your in the wrong church!!!
I would hate you to find out they actually support the queen.
Your view of NOT ACCEPTING other faith's in schools, does little to promote the view of Christianity, and your view to brainwash children in only one religion, and to not allow children to make there own minds up, does little to promote your view.ALL POSTS ARE MY OWN PERSONAL VIEWS - Brian Dixon

29 September 2013 15:05246389sounds Islamic to me. - 29 September 2013 17:35246413Alexandar, the difference between us is merely that I have respect for everyones religious beliefs if they are all for the benefit of mankind. If someone gets comfort from their "church" who am I to question it.
My own feelings toward religion are formed from personal events and I firmly believe that we should all live by a moral code, and that includes respect, tolerance and humility
Your belief may prove to be right Alexandar but so might the nexts mans. Who knows for certain? - Keith Sansum1

exactly what iv been sayingALL POSTS ARE MY OWN PERSONAL VIEWS - 29 September 2013 22:02246438Also to mention, the Lady's road leading to Christ's Church must be following the East-West line of the Sun.
In fact this East-West line leads to Easter (Resurrection).
(Please leave out the "Easter is a pagan feast" remark

1 October 2013 22:35246679confirmed the castle church supports the queen as supreme governor
now where do you go alexanderALL POSTS ARE MY OWN PERSONAL VIEWS - 1 October 2013 22:49246682Lesley, you've hit the nail right on the head there, no-one with any sense can disagree with you.
Stuff the queen as the head of the church Keith, Alexander saw through your childishness ages ago. - 2 October 2013 00:40246687The Light Tower Church is dedicated to the Virgin Mary and will not renege its Faith in Jesus Christ.
The British High Command took refuge underground at the feet of this Church during WW II and the Germans never bombed or shelled the Castle by land or by sea or from the air.
Yes, Lesley, respect and humility are due. Don't we Brits commemorate those who fell in the war?
Don't underestimate the High City, because not everything you see around you is the sole doing of mortal mankind.
I mean yes, mankind does start wars and wages them, but we don't really know how often we've been spared the worst notwithstanding mankind's own (and initial) actions, do we?
Surely, it could have been much worse.
I don't think we Brits should actually be asking ourselves whether we should convert to another religion, when we have the Christian Faith, or whether we should take the Gospel out of our schools in our Country.
We also have a Christian Flag - the Union Jack - flying over our Castle.Chanters, Drums and Drones Potty Time http://youtu.be/99fMqpjnXYA

As I've said before, your brand of Christianity is responsible for over a 1000 years worth of conflict with the Islamic faith and has spawned the very worst in persecution and torture - all in the name of God...Dover and Cinque Ports Life Magazines are on Facebook www.facebook.com/DoverandCinquePortsLife - 2 October 2013 09:59246709I thought it was always understood that Hitler gave orders not to bomb or shell the castle because he wanted to install Eva Braun in it as a love nest once he had invaded - or is that a myth?

If you were correct then yes i would go along with it,
but taking away the discussion on religion/wars
my only concern for Alexander was that he was following a church that actually supported the queen as head of the church like other church'sALL POSTS ARE MY OWN PERSONAL VIEWS - Brian Dixon

- 5 October 2013 13:21247210Sacred Mysteries: the Gnostic idea that matter is bad
This comprehensible introduction to the strange beliefs of Gnosticism is delightful...
" What did the Gnostics believe? Someone asked me that, after I mentioned their intellectual opponent, Irenaeus, who lived in Lyon in the second century.
The answer is that we don't quite know, for two reasons. One is that their beliefs varied greatly from group to group. More importantly, they enforced a system of secret teaching, the esoteric gnosis or "knowledge" that gave their sect its name.
Why this should matter centuries later is that, in exposing their beliefs, St Irenaeus (pictured) gave an account of early Christianity that is still freshly impressive. The key teaching of Gnosticism that Irenaeus opposes is that material things are bad. Some Christian writers even now unthinkingly say that our being material is a falling away from God, as if it were equivalent to sin.
Reading Irenaeus's refutation of Gnosticism is no easy task. His treatise Adversus Haereses ("Against the heresies") argues in the manner of the late classical world, which is foreign to our tastes, and he has no section "New readers start here".
So it was a pleasure to catch up with a presentation of Irenaeus's book by the theologian Hans Urs von Balthasar, first published in English in 1990 under the title The Scandal of the Incarnation (Ignatius Press, £9.42). Fortunately, the translator, John Saward, is a theologian in his own right and writes very clearly..."
