Shame they can’t stick to their principles.
Less religion would be so good for the world.

Many of the founders of Israel were secular. And now the ultraorthodox have a disproportionate influence, including as to how people are allowed to marry.

Yes, it is disgraceful. And many Swiss women had to wait another 30 years.

It is a holiday sacred to American anglophiles because it's named after Benedict Arnold.

They always seem to be women with balls, though.

Hey K2...They don't want or need balls...They are WIMMIN. They try to fix the mess those who have the balls have made of the world. At least they think with their brains and not their other appendages.

There was a French feminist movie that tried to coin the expression "They've got clit!" It didn't catch on for some reason.

It didn't catch on because those feminists hadn't quite learned that one's intelligence, courage, determination, perseverance etc is not governed by one's genitalia.

Of course in France we've known that just about forever -- and his long reigning father was Omar Bongo.

Ali Bongo was also a British comedy magician of the 60's, 70's and 80's.

Valentines Day and Ash Wednesday have not coincided since 1945. Until today. Easter 2018 falls on April Fool’s Day, also unusual.

I think you'd like it. It also uses the panel show format and hilarious stream-of-consciousness replies and asides.
