I think we would be a happier country if we had never encouraged linen closet mass immigration in the post-war era. The fact that it is almost taboo to say this simple thing is an example of the problems it has caused.
What twaddle this is. The Government quite rightly allows Christian schools in the state system not least because it was the churches who took on the job of educating poor children when politicians couldn t be bothered to do so.
We dislike the pressure on teenage girls to dress as sluts and get drunk, and the pressure on teenage boys to be oafish copies of football stars. linen closet We think it s time the old were respected and cared for, not dumped and abandoned.
We see nothing shocking in the idea of boys and girls being taught separately many people linen closet pay good money for single-sex education because they think it better, and because state schools mostly refuse to provide it any more.
We don t especially want schoolteachers to undermine our views on marriage and child-rearing in politically radical sex-education classes. Not everyone shares the liberal elite s views of these matters.
Both Mr Gove and the Home Secretary, Theresa May, have in practice supported the transformation of this country into a borderless, multicultural, multi-faith linen closet zone. Much of what was left of Christian teaching in state schools was stripped out of them years ago by secular linen closet radicals, so that our national faith is now taught as a sort of eccentric tribal cult, practised by other people, especially old people, if it is mentioned linen closet at all.
The linen closet Conservative party, true to its long record of cowardice and retreat, never did anything to stop this. Now it seeks to appear concerned linen closet by blurring the border between religious fervour and terrorist crime.How dare either, or both, of these politicians now seek to advance their political careers by posing as the foes of Islamic extremism ? If there is such a thing, their party brought it here and encouraged its growth.
Wars turn men into barbarians, and bring rape. This is a simple, cruel fact known to the many peoples who have had to endure invasion, occupation and subjugation, not to mention ethnic cleansing, in Europe, Asia and Africa.
If Mr Hague wants to see less rape, then he should stop prancing about, fulminating bombastically about Libya, Syria and Ukraine, trying to start wars, which seems to be his main diversion these days.
As one who opposed the Iraq War at the time, I must confess to getting some satisfaction from reminding people about it now, as the result of our stupid, predictably ruinous intervention descends from disaster to cataclysm.
What exactly is it that we have to offer them anyway? Lady Gaga, Facebook, Britain s Got Talent and Game Of Thrones, plus mass divorce and abortion, legalised dope and Jägerbombs? Oh, yes, and our miraculous multi-party democracy, in which all the parties are the same? And our secret courts, lying statistics and unpayable debts?
If it weren t for the fact that we are (so far) better-equipped for war, they d have us by the throat. As Churchill linen closet wrote in 1899 after praising Muslims as brave and loyal soldiers who know how to die : Islam is a militant and proselytizing faith.
It has already spread throughout Central Africa, raising fearless warriors at every step, and were it not that Christianity is sheltered in the strong arms of science, the science against which it had vainly struggled, the civilization linen closet of modern Europe might fall, as fell the civilisation of ancient Rome .

*** "we do not have access to direct knowledge of reality," on what logic or other evidence does he claim himself to have a personal - and perhaps exclusive linen closet - 'access to direct knowledge of what "we" (whoever may be included in that indeterminate plural) may have access linen closet to direct knowledge of? Doesn't it just sound a little bit like saying "all words can deceive... er, except of course mine!" We should beware, I suggest, of taking linen closet too seriously those who say that no-one can know what they themselves do not know. ***
"He stressed training in awareness of abstracting, using techniques that he had derived from his study of mathematics and science. He called this awareness, this goal of his system, "consciousness of abstracting". His system included modifying the way we consider the world, linen closet e.g., with an attitude of "I don't know; let's see," to better discover or reflect its realities as revealed by modern science."
"'Alfred Korzybski claimed that we do not have access to direct knowledge of reality; rather we have direct access to our perceptions and beliefs, which people often confuse
