How come we get churchmen in charge ?

How does a Rudd or an Obama get into politics? "I thought we were all secularists here "...and had dismissed forever the place of " religion" .

suddenly as if by some revelation, Jounos realise when they see the election of a new president in the US ---- they don't understand what's happening . Not as though they do really understand whats' happening ----its just that at rare times the high priests realise they don't realise why things are happening as they are. Some of their theology is not working.

If you don't understand ,,,
EITHER you have been wearing blinkers ( people in power often act in faith)
AND/OR you don't already know how they get into politics
OR

Maybe you are so one sided about secularism that you can't see its not very sustainable -



(Journalist don't understand much about real communities because they aren't part of them as much as they think .)

You mean sport yes well Ok but, even there you need emotion dummies.
Press are in a mess trying to work out why emotional even spiritual people get into power .
We are supposed to be a secular society - thats our greatest calim to fame acording to many .
Pity they don't read history - secularism is a fad limiting ones mind to this world and what we know about it .
A friend of a famous fabian said almost a century ago that " there was something ironic in the name atheists chose when they called themselves Secularists . By definition they had tied themselves to a fashion of this world that passeth away .... They have not got vision or conviction, mastery of their work ,loyalty of their household or any form of human dignity" ........because they deny such bigger things are out there.
