An Ulster Conscience

  First blog entry this year I think  A reward of £100 for a small task.  a reward for one special gifted person {a knowledge of Christian theology may help}   From the account of the final judgement of all mankind told by Jesus the Christ in KJV Matthews Gospel Chapter 25 verses 31 to 46 I maintain     the reward is for the first person to convince me that i am wrong in my reading of Matthew 25:verses 31-46  that's it, a simple task,  I mean if it is not a sin at the final Judgement, how can it be a sin today?   I have been a theologian now for more than 40 years . I am still learning from the books of the Bible, every week my appreciation and understanding of God grows, and I know that I shall not ever fully understand God until I am in the presence of God , so I know that I may be missing something from this final judgement account and am willing to pay £100 of my own money to the one who can open my eyes to see what he/she sees, t...

Regarding the Good Friday Agreement, aka The Belfast Agreement  on the Good Friday Agreement, don't take my word for it  look at it for yourself .  it's freely available online at Irish Department of foreign affairs/ the UN /the British Government/ and many other places, in searchable pdf format  you can search for "majority" & see if its defined  ( I can't see any definition ) you can search for "percent" & see if it is used (I can't find any) you can search for the symbol " % " and see that it is used twice 60% and 40%.  But that is not regarding a border poll. Never-the-less it is the only place in the agreement where a majority is quantified.  in my view that 60/40 is the "spirit" of the agreement as to majority -v- minority in the absence of any other definitions  please read it yourselves don't heed the spin politicians from here or abroad  source example:- https://www.dfa.ie/media/dfa/alldfawebsitemedia/ourroles...

  Why I do, what I do Some people may think I am balmy. I might actually be delusional. The bible has been a deeply daily integral part of my life since I was mid-teenager. I belong with the man of Calvary. And yet on Belfast Pride Parade day I appear on the parades commission portal as [ Private Individual ] under the label ‘ Parade Related Protest’ I protest , not against the parade, but against a group of different protestors, who are protesting about the parade. They call themselves, United Christian Witness . People may wonder why a 70plus disabled granddad with a rollator would go to the bother of counter protest at all. I have been offered assistance at my protest from within my denomination but I feel one person is enough. John the baptist was alone. I am not going to say anything about these United Christian Witness that they would not agree with. So shamefully wicked and vile are the sins of these United Christian Witness, that ...

 Government is a mechanism for solving problems collectively;  that we cannot solve individually I like that

 Some things would need to change before a unified Ireland would seem an attractive option , and being the FATTEST country in Europe isn't one of theese   view this interview  https://youtu.be/Z1d1cxmrPAs
