BRHG was obviously well prepared. It was quite interesting that the Canon could not remember 'Faith, Hope & Charity'! His twist on the Descatres quote "I think, therefore I am" just underlines the point the Roger had made earlier that the 'Church' twists and turns and changes its tack to keep people on board and maintain social influence. This also links to the point made by the Christian woman towards the end of the debate who talked about the good works/community development being carried out by religious bodies. My experience is that many of these bodies do this for two reasons (1) as a means of obtaining funding - both public and from trusts and foundations (2) as part of their missionary programme. Once again, well done folks. Excellent – well done for making the recording available to all who could not be there for the debate.

Mr. Goldblatt, I've read THE BALL IS ROUND with great interest, being an American fairly new-come to the world's game. My own sport of choice remains baseball, for reasons about as deeply historical as your own seem to be. If you could drop me an e-mail at h.turtledove at yahoo dot com, I'd enjoy talking with you about the two sports. Thanks. An anarchist football side almost sounds like a contradiction in terms.

If anyone from the group would be up for doing an interviews please get in touch. We are hopefully getting a short news alert out today and a longer piece out early next week so sooner rather than later would be good.
