Two stories from AOL News.
1. If you want to make sense of the picture, have a read at this.
Same scandal as last year at Christmas – and this time it made the BBC Sunday evening news, linked to the story covering the Calzaghe v Jones boxing match.
Suggested relevant Scripture verses please?
My own suggestion – "Jesus wept".
And then this:
2. Workers at Salisbury Town Hall, in Wiltshire
were told they should not utter the ancient cliche, "singing from the same hymn sheet", because its
religious connotations could hurt the feelings of unbelievers.
The directive said: "Avoid office and council
jargon wherever possible, including phrases such as 'moving forward' or
'singing from the same hymn sheet'. Not everyone understands these
phrases – some can actually cause offence (what would an atheist want
with your hymn sheet?)"
With apologies to the author of John's Gospel, "Jesus laughed".
