Brexit+10
I’m not sure why i thought this date is the tenth anniversary of Brexit; it’s next year.
I think there’d been some news story about the UK. Try to fill things up with something to write about for this month.
Is the UK in worse shape than it was before Brexit? Yep. But is that because the government has proven inept, regardless of which political party is running it? Also, yep.
But so much has been destroyed, not just by the immigration unleashed on the UK from when it was in the EU, but also from really-radical individuals who are running formerly-esteemed institutions.
Trey Chuckie went to Mass at the Vatican. Huh?
The ABC story I linked doesn’t go into much of why Charles met. This story from the CBC discusses some of the points of dispute more. There’s a schism that’s been brewing in the Church of England over this.
But the Church of England has also been hit with child abuse allegations similar to the Catholic Church.
Maybe the message is that they agree that that was messed up, and they need to work together to make sure it doesn’t ever happen again?
If you wanted to dig more, too, you can find where many of the Anglican bishops in Africa aren’t okay with some of the doctrinal changes happening in England.
Nobody is without sin. A structured faith system does provide a construct for society. It’s not wrong to pass judgment on those faiths’ tenets; it’s not all good.
I am never going to be okay with a faith that forces women to wear certain things. Or be circumcised.
Disagree? I’m not going to change my mind. Use whatever force you think is appropriate, but I ask that you do it in full view of the world.
In other news, holy crap I keep getting disrupted by recruiters. I don’t understand why I didn’t get much attention for several years, but I have to be honest about my limitations. And i really don’t want to work anymore. Get this disability stuff squared away, and finally retire.
