The passing of Christine Keeler, the former model at the centre of the Profumo affair, has prompted many elderly Britons to pine for a time when Tory ministers got sacked for doing something enviable, like sleeping with sexy women who were also having an affair with Russian diplomats - from Newsthump.

“People were scandalised by John Profumo, but most men were envious too. Everyone wanted to be a powerful man who gets ensnared by a young promiscuous beauty. No one – and I mean no one – wants to be the guy that gets drunk and tries to feel up Julia Hartley-Brewer.”

Take that, liberal post-modern world, and shove it up your... errr, jumper. Although I didn't think J-HB was THAT bad.

Play nice - I will delete anything I don't want associated with this blog and I will delete anonymous comments.

Why post emergent?

Why not?

Some years ago I wrote about things relating to church I thought were important then and probably still do to an extent. So many of us want to make sure stuff is right, trying to differentiate ourselves, yet also often miss the more important stuff, the bigger picture.

I watch various people doing church in different ways and wonder how much God is concerned about our 'important' bits of theology or stances we take. The church stream I was once so pleased to be part of is starting to look like every other church to me, so maybe it's time I had a little humility instead of pride at being different.
