My greatest love (apart from my partner that is) is reading - a good book that can whisk you away into its own world, taking you into parts unknown - and then dump you back into reality at the end. Travelling, dancing, walking, adventure all rate high in my world. As does taking time out to sit by the river...

GOD IS DEAD. HE IS NO MORE. HE IS KAPUT.

There is no such thing as church law, sharia law or any other religious law. The law of the land, Government law, or International law applies. Religious entities simply do not have the legal power or authority to create or apply laws.
