Don't call them Japs though.
No, really. It's like the N word (only not posting so it can't be searched.)

It's funny. Funny-peculiar I mean.
I finally understood a joke I asked about on here a while back.
Something about how the Godless cannot prosper - well then how do you explain Europe?

May have the words wrong.
But I was watching TV and realised just how entrenched Darwinism is, in this country.
How accepted it is.
TV licence payers fund the BBC (yeah, sorry, we're pinko socialists too) and it is simply a given scientific fact that evolution is true and real and happened and all that and everything. No questions.

The gorgeous Prof Cox is allowed on TV because we believe in all this. As is Sir David Attenbrough - okay it's more his bag, but me goodness I have to bring Brian Cox in every now and then in case there are people alive not aware of his loveliness.

To me it beggars belief that it is possible in some schools in the US creationism is considered part of the curriculum.I know there are Christians of different flavours here. And I know the Cellar is not a hotbed of creationism, so nothing here is personal. But bloody hell.

Americans call their President The Leader of the Free World.
C'mon.

Oh, just to even it out a little...
I used to work in a bar every Sunday.
Licencing laws in those days meant you could only open 12.00-15.00.
So at 12.05 the Old Boys came in. Proper old Aylesbury men, Bucks accents, wellies, the lot.
Stayed for two drinks and the roast potatoes (used to be free on the bar - as was cheese and pickled onions) and left. One of them was virulently anti-Jap. Well, that's what he said so thats how I'll write it. He said a lot more about them as well.

He was in a POW camp. His friend was tortured in a bizarre way which was something to do with half a melon taped to an open wound on his back...? In the heat and the humidity it did for him anyway. He died with festering sores and without mercy.

Hard to argue bleeding heart liberalism in the face of that.
