Well, as you bring it up.....................


Do you REALLY think we would be communicating via the internet if old Henry had NOT "rebelled"?


We would most likely be cowering down in a corner, eating turnips and believing that the priest could "strike us down".


Don't forget that the Roman Catholic Pope condemmed Galileo as a heretic.

How DARE he suggest the Earth went around the Sun? !!!!!!





As I said. Black Magic Mumbo Jumbo. Eventually we will "grow out of it"

Henry is one of my all time heroes of history. He just sort of stood back and went 'Hey, why do I have to do things according to what some tart in a dress in Italy tells me to do?' As you rightly say he is someone who pushed us forward instead of us being held back, as a nation.

Reminds me of the time the old guy at Central Park used to parade around with his placard

"The messiah will come again"

I will never forget the time some guy said

"Yes he is sitting in the dressing room with a number 6 on his back"


Ahhhh.......my namesake

I did like this quote from him......

"One of my great joys when I was at St Mary's Church was that it was right next to Central Park. If I stood on a chair I could see half the pitch.

Why not pay like the rest of us and see the whole pitch ???

Bloody cheapskate.
