[Magdalen] Historical Jesus

[Sally Davies]

Yes - it's on CNN but I'm not sure when. I'd like to catch it if I can,
though the programme as promised seems rather pandering to popular
interests e.g. Turin Shroud.

Still, much is promised...!!

I'm enjoying CNN these days. Bad as American political life is, at least it
is interesting and involves a (mostly) effective "resistance" whose
unfolding story is both fascinating and inspiring.

Here, not so much. We seem to be in a state of numbness and the non stop
racial rhetoric is profoundly disempowering.

I got through the weekend by watching Willie Nelson on Youtube...Mike and
others struggling with anger about the goings-on, I can tell you it worked
for me :-)

"Roll me up and smoke me when I die"...
