I was just reading today's Sun when I was struck by the photograph on the front page Leading from the Front about the Mayor's cycle trip for Sunday 6 March. There was a time when Sunday was used for worshipping God, the apostle John in Revelation speaks about being in the Spirit on the Lord's Day.
It would be good if the Mayors led from the front in keeping the Lord's Day as it used to be kept and leave cycle trips for the Saturday. It is then they would in truth 'Lead from the Front.

Does GOD approve of using Force on others?

Sorry Dick, but I do not believe in your God, so why should I be forced to observe these things just because you do? Or, perhaps if I must be forced to observe the God you worship, does that mean that YOU should be forced to observe the god that I worship? How about THIS: I will allow YOU to worship YOUR god whenever you chose, and YOU allow ME the same courtesy to worship my imaginary friend (or not) when I chose. NO? YOu want to be free to do what YOU want, but dont want to allow me the same courtesy. You want to use FORCE on me. Does your god approve of using force on others?
