It was God wot done it – again

Don’t you just love the way the Deluded Herd praise God when things go their way, but don’t believe it’s his doing when things don’t? Laugh? I nearly did.

First let’s get the crappiest intro in the world out of the way:

Yesterday, 7 January 2010 a Hearing was held at Macclesfield Town Hall for the Application for a Premises Licence Variation to “Lap Dancing – Full Strip” at the Repent Nightclub, 84B Mill Street, Macclesfield.

Yawn! That’ll get ’em reading.

Right, onward. In the emailed bulletin I’m referring to and quoting from (probably not yet on their website at the time of writing, because I can’t find it), the Christian Legal Centre – a bunch of homophobic tossers – are crowing about the turning-down of this application for a lap-dancing and strip joint, and end the bulletin thus:

An invisible army of prayer warriors also contributed to the success of this hearing. It was a team effort and an example of working together to produce an excellent result. We praise and thank God for this outcome.

“OK, chaps, we’ve advanced along the west flank. We’ve got the blighters surrounded. Hands at the ready. At my command, hands together and . . . pray! That’ll show the scoundrels!”

We welcome lively and challenging comments. However, please try to stay on topic, be polite and do not use abusive, racist or sexist language, and do not incite your readers to violence or other antisocial behaviour, or your comment will be deleted. This isn't censorship: it's a case of staying within the bounds of decency and having an eye to the law, although we realise the law will be different in different countries.

We do not bar anonymous comments at the moment, but we would prefer that those commenting play fair and use their name or at least a regular nom de plume. It does show a confidence in your convictions. We know, too, that it's easy to use a false name and be effectively anonymous, but, again, we appeal to your sense of good practice. Even a wacky nom de plume is better, since at least readers will come to know that contributor and maybe remember her or his previous comments.

Blatant commercial advertising will be removed.

Comments should not be construed as necessarily the policy or opinion of the Pink Triangle Trust.
