I would advise him to keep well away from British Women..What are they? Not what they were...The values we used to have are gone... That's the price you pay for being successful. home cooking replaced by microwave meals... families by nannies and day nuseries... but at least the french protect their culture.. more can be said for mine... but there are better places.. If you ask me I will tell you.. Where to find what you seek.. I found it..
I could not live without this song.. I'm not Chirstian but these guy give this passion.. It's not just about God..it's about waking up every morning and feeling alive... The Afters
I'd just move on..if it didn't work first time it won't second. If a woman tells you to get lost just do it. Stop being an over romantic sop and get on with your life. Find yoursef a woman who accepts you as you are and doesn't want you to change. French women are lost in a strange world that is unrealistic. Find yourself a real woman who is not tainted with fakeness and commmercialisation. Remember you're British... what the hell did we fight Napoleon for just for you to fall for one of them..?
Sorry before..somewhere the past crept in and I saw that a the last post...
No..I never answered someone like that but I have been thinking about something and spoke a question out loud to myself and someone thought I was speaking to them and answered it.
I'll repeat my last question..
Have you ever regretted breaking up with your first love?
No but I once waited the Euston for girl who's train was delayed for 5 hours. Only to miss her because she didnt believe anyone was stupid enough to wait that long. Maybe I'm a tad too romantic...
Have you ever regretted finishing with your first love?
I have posted this before but it seems a good place to reiterate this..
The bible is not believable for a number of other key reasons..
The things you have to bear in mind it
1. The scriptures weren’t written till up to 200 years after Jesus's death
2. The stories of his life will have be passed by mouth for those 2 centuries
3. Stories sound better when you add the element of magic and mystery and are embellished
4. The scriptures were written by people who believed he was the messiah and they would have ensured that that view was the only one presented within them
5. The church has rewritten sections to match their wants over the past 2 millennium and translated things in a way favourable to support their own beliefs.
Some people attempt to re-write history to suite their belief systems. The fact is that the writers of the 4 gospels chosen to be in the New Testament were not direct disciples of Jesus nor were they alive when he was. There were hundreds of different gospels written in the 200 years after the death of Jesus my many writers and most of them were attributed to the original disciples as well as both Mary's. The Gospel of John found in our modern bible was written around 150 AD. (And not by John the disciple who was already dead at the time).
Of the hundreds written, the 4 gospels selected to be included in the New Testament were chosen under very suspicious circumstances in the 4th century for political reasons. It was written and edited by the council of Nicaea during the reign of the pagan king Constantine. Constantine wanted everyone united under a single religion so there would be no uprisings so he had the bible complied, edited and written to meet this need. One could safely assume they picked the ones with the enhancements and embellishments that support the idea of him being the true Messiah.
There is plenty of evidence that suggests Jesus was crucified next to two members of the ‘Lestai’.
The King James version translates this as thieves but in reality the men who were crucified with Jesus were members of the Fourth Philosophy (a Jewish sect that rebelled against Rome) who took the name of Lestai. The were otherwise knowd as the 'Nazarians' after the town they came from Nazereth.
The members of the Fourth Philosophy were normally always crucified because they were rebels against Rome. Given the fact he came from Nazereth and was crucified with these two Nazarians, there is a strong possiblity he was associated with this rebel movement.
If you are truly interested there are hundreds of books and scholarly articles written on early Christian history and it is a very interesting subject. You might start with ‘Christian Anti-Semitism, A History of Hate’ by William Nichols and ‘The Rise and Fall of the Judean State’ by Solomon Zeitlin
I think the issue today it that society has changed from one where time and patience was the key to one where everyone wants a quick fix.
Supermarkets are full of ready meals and fast checkouts, trains whizz you to work at high speeds, roads have migrated to high speed dual carriage ways with nothing to look at but grass banks on both sides. You can buy everything on credit and have it in an instant. Everyone seems to be in a rush to get somewhere, and sees climbing the corporate ladder as a measure of their success.
I think that has filtered down into relationships. Everyone wants partner who can fit into this quick fast lifestyle almost as a convenience. It used to be the father was the provider and the mother the nurturer, now both parent have to work to scrape enough together to pay the mortgage and bills. Children get dumped in crèches or child care and if they do see their parents it’s in a whirlwind of microwaves and wine bottles between picking up after work and going to bed.. Stay at home mums or Dads are frowned upon as being suppressed and subjugated.
I have realised that old fashioned family values and true romance is dead in the UK. Valentine’s Day is a card from Clintons, flowers from the garage, box of chocs from Tesco’s and a Chinese from the local take away. Crazy romantic gestures are gone, replaced by affection bought from the local supermarket or fast food restaurant.
I could never find love here in the UK in this bleak barren shallow shell of a country we have now. Where the state encourages both partners to work so they can cream of their tax dollars; where greed and speed have overtaken family values and quality time. Where the concept of taking time over creating something special like a home cooked meal, a love letter or a romantic picnic is not valued.
I have given up on the shallow women I meet here in the UK who judge you by the size of you bank account not what's in your heart. I believe romantic women still exist but not in this country anymore. They exist in places where the modern day obsession with money and speed still hasn’t corrupted their view on the World and their search for love. That is why I will be looking overseas for my soul mate and I’ll leave the poor shallow soulless generation of today trapped in their high-speed money-baited hamster wheels...
