    Never listen when they tell you that Man and the animals have a common interest, that the prosperity of the one is the prosperity of the others. It is all lies.

    I assume that the Church in New Zealand provided this poster in order to gain publicity. They have done a brilliant job seeing as people like ourselves on the other side of the world are talking about it.

    It was a church that put up these ads.

    Dearie me! That's telling me, eh? And of course you're entirely right (though I suspect that will come as no surprise to you).
    But might an ever-so-humble, ever-so-embittered person enquire by what authority your bettership gives peremptory orders to a fellow poster? It wasn't at all clear from your posts that you'd been appointed to such uniquely high office.

    You're coming pretty close to ranting yourself at this stage, chief, if you don't mind my saying so (but I suppose you will - I just seem to have that effect on some people).

    Do you tell me so, now? How very Christian of Pascal! I shall take a note of this fact and memorise it. I can think of all sorts of occasions when I can just drop it into conversation and watch the result. My, how the ladies will swoon when they learn from whose lips I have learned this nut of wisdom.
