We should be counting blessings

Sean Bostock is absolutely right that we do have blessings to count. Let's hope it stays that way.

Sean mentions Darfur where there is "parked" the machine of militant Islam that subscribes to shariah law in its most merciless manifestation - yet there are always lots of children to be found on charity pleas for help to the West. What they need is contraception; this whole round of disaster is ridiculous.

He mentions "The great pretender Tony Blair who is waging a war on our behalf. A war that is quite unjustified."

Absolutely agreed Sean, yet what is happening there? Militant Islam again; Sunnis killing Shiites and our boys and girls as well. They all believe shariah law to be the great measure of justice.

Now this government has thought fit to sanction shariah law for citizens of this country.

It won't affect us? Nuts! Look at Canada. Creeping, it first affected Muslims then where there was a Muslim man married to a western woman and a dispute over a child of the union, this has also reportedly been dealt with under shariah law.

Yes, we should count our blessings. I have a feeling if we don't now, we won't have so many to count shortly.
