Or perhaps their god. who he prays to. There was a film with Billy Connolly when he sued god in Court . It was great. I must look it up and watch it again, may give me some ideas..

He's too old and fat now to get a job in the army.What's so troubling is that he looks so normal.

Of course, the religious right would never stoop so low as to orchestrate a campaign objecting to the rights of others to express their views or go about their perfectly lawful business, would they?

Thought for the day. get rid of god fearing people who spout absurdities, who i believe do not really believe what they say themselves, off of the BBc. We pay for the licence so we should get a reduction in ours, unless of course thought for the day will include atheists. Oh dear we must not offend the church, those in power, no that will never do. What a load of....as you say.. Great sentiments Broga, Still however much we point these things out the stupid will not understand.

These Chinese "herbal medicines" (ie weeds) have caused serious illness in some cases. Some of the practitioners have been prosecuted for using forbidden ingredients too. I wouldn`t partake of any medicine that wasn `t commonly used, and even then I`d exercise caution! I gave some old socks to the local charity shop recently (for recycling not reselling): if I`d known, I could have sent them to you for your wife to boil up. I`m sure the concoction would have been just as effective!! Your wife may have been lucky, Tim. These Chinese "herbal medicines" (ie weeds) have caused serious illness in some cases.

Aloe Vera raises its head once again!! When I was a Christian ( many years ago now) some of them were selling it (with evangelical zeal of course) under the auspices of the MLM (pyramid selling) organization <i>Herbalife</i>. It was supposed to be a wonder-cure, much like Lily the Pink`s "Medicinal Compound" , but I thought it had now faded into well-deserved obscurity. If there really were a naturally occurring "elixir" then common sense tells you that it would not be necessary to advertise the fact! BTW I used to love that song, "Lily the Pink", by <i>The Scaffold</i>, but did you realize that it was based on a real folk ballad about Lydia Pinkham and her famous <i>Vegetable Compound</i>? (Only efficacious in the case of women`s complaints though, sadly!!) I think it may still be available in the States! Aha! Aloe Vera raises its head once again!!
