"now accepts the Queen as head of all of the church of England"
Not half of it, then!
Try looking in on Folkestone Road, Keith, opposite the former Priory of St. Mary and St. Martin: the Church has gone.

I always thought 33 LPs and 45 EPs were more or less the same age, 78s were the old style records.

Keith, your question in 84:
I live in Folkestone Road, and used to live in Malvern Road when Christ Church stood in Folkestone Road.
It was the local Church of England church for this area.
It's gone now, although it was in perfect condition. So how can the queen be the head of C/E Christ's Church if it is no more?
She doesn't ever stand up for churches of the C/E that are knocked down or converted.
How can you be head of a C/E church dedicated to Christ that no longer exists?
Here in Dover anyway.
Surely with the knocking down of this church, the queen's own authority came down with it!

Well, having established you recognise the queen as the head of the church, let's get into the debate you appear to want to put forward as a red herring.
I have also lived on the Folkestone Road, and Longfield Road(for info)
My understanding of Christchurch church was that falling numbers was one of the reason's for the church to go, its nice though alexander that you have stopped blaming local authorities for church closures, and now blame the correct people.
I'm sure the cost and upkeep of such a big building, if the congregation was small would get church leaders to question it's viability.
That said, I always recall a church of England priest telling me 25 years ago that you don't need church's to be a good Christian
you can do this in every day life.
For some it's church's, for others it's how you lead your life.

KeithS, I read the first line of your deranged post 88, which is a repetition of many other phrases you keep posting in which you mention me and give a false declaration about me.
Consequently I decided not to read any further and actually to ignore these deranged posts of yours altogether, on this and other threads, because you keep posting lies about me regards my Christian Faith.
I think you may have a disorder.

That's probably the most sensible and apt statement I have seen from Keith on here
The amount of pure drivel on this thread beggars belief though...

Paul, It is a thread with the title 'Politics, Politics, etc.' - no other way for it to be except full of drivel.

paul and neil
you both have a choice of threads and posters that you can ignore.

Indeed Howard, I saw the thread title and ignored it altogether until I saw that Paul had posted and wondered what he'd had to say.

Yep, it's a bit like sticking your tongue on the end of a 9V battery to see if there's any life in it. You know you'll get a shock, but you have to have a go anyway....
Howard - I think we have just as much right to comment on the drivel, as the poster has to issue it in the first place. The thread isn't the problem, it's the quality (or lack thereof) of reasoned statement by certain posters (and that isn't directed at Keith S on this occasion
).
You have already stated "the thread title has no relevance now to the posts", so why should Neil and I not make similar observations?

Paul Isles, perhaps you and KeithS have decided together to make posts in which KeithS continually attributes false statements to me, and then comes back and has another go, and obsessively repeats it, and then you join in from your corner seated behind a monitor.
Why hide behind a monitor?
I live in Dover and you can come say to me to my face what you have to say hidden away
That's if you are man enough to do it, which I strongly doubt

the distinction is clear between "having no relevance" and "drivel", the latter is insulting and not aimed at anyone in particular as far as i can see.

Beg to amplify your thoughts slightly Howard. When a thread starts with a title such as this we can expect that many of the posts will be relevant, some will not, but most will also be pure drivel.

One person's relevance is someone else's drivel it all depends on that particular poster's viewpoint, we have to read a post or thread to find out which.
