No, not Wales.

The bible says that once you're dead, you die. Then when Jesus shows up for the rapture, we all get taken up.
Then we get judged ... at which point, we end up in heaven or hell.

Easy, innit!

So is Jesus really a necromancer then? I've had my suspicions about his links to the undead for a number of years now...

Now let's talk about the word 'virgin'... That's a tricky one because it can be translated into all sorts of other words, one being 'young maiden' .... or from the greek, (I think, can't remember) meaning 'dweller in her father's house'... not much to do with chastity!

And given that Jesus's lineage was meant to be from the line of King David (so the bible says) how is it then a 'virgin' birth?

Ooh, I feel all controversial.

My favourite is always the Inn keeper.

You can have so much fun with that role.

That was a good interview. I really like Dawkins - infact his whole manner makes him very likeable. And he explains things in very lucid terms, and uses excellent analogies to support his explanations.

I wish my teaching used to be as good as that.
