Just back from a board meeting of the Rationalist Association. the meeting only went on two & half hours, not too bad.. but we are not one step closer to heaven on earth. actually, that isn’t really the job of the committee, we’re mainly there for oversight, or the preventing of oversights (isn’t it a bit odd that the two meanings of that word are basically the opposite of each other?)
So rather than making plans to burn down westminster abbey, we talked a lot about bookkeeping (which is the only word in english with 3 consecutive double letters!)
& the pope lives to die another day. 🙄
