As per usual you answered nothing...And maybe you would like to comment on why Belgium refused to supply the UK with ammo and we had to procure it from the Dutch and lets us not even mention the fact that the French helped Argentina as you think the sun shines out of the EUSSR's rectum... http://www.theweek.co.uk/world-news/falkland-islands/45704/bbc-finds-evidence-french-helped-argentines-sink-our-ships https://publications.parliament.uk/pa/cm200102/cmhansrd/vo020410/halltext/20410h02.htm |

It was a "tongue in cheek" remark for goodness sake.

I think it is not just Catholics that have reservations about the origins of the royal link through the Church of England, to it's founder Henry VIII, and his daughter Elizabeth I. |

Yes, but reservations are something not uncommon throughout the inherited positions held, and ownership of land, titles and religious lineage of all leading religions across let's say Europe, all of which have a questionable history. Religion itself is an emotionally learnt belief in the unprovable existence of a God. |

Hmmn, depends on your definitions of 'unprovable' - there are plenty of 'rational and logical' arguments and 'proofs' that lean heavily towards there being a 'deity'. |

It relates to the post it was sent in reply to, did that really need to be explained ? |

I will gladly make a logical connection between the French and the existence of God for you if you'd just buy me a big bottle of good Armanac.

You might need there to be a heaven if you encounter a Frenchman that's seen you misspell Armagnac |

It was early. I wasn't quite awake. I should have posted it in French but think of the havoc and mayhem such rule-trashing audacity would have generated. The French would approve. |

Fat chance of that CC, the French don't even approve of themselves, don't believe me?, ask Sarkozy. |

I grew up in Quebec surrounded by Quebecers but they are like the French of 300 years ago. There are a few " frozen in time" colonial cultures in the America's. |

I once saw a scientist on the Royal Institute Christmas Lectures claim what we already know 95% of all there is to know. One thing is for sure. He must be one piss-poor scientist if he thinks that there is no further need for thoery or experimentation because the answers are already known. If this person is typical of the me!bership of the Royal Society, we can all safely ignore them. p.s.Cut off their funding. They are obviously a sham. Edited by Curious Cdn, Mar 31 2018, 03:50 AM.

You may think it logical, and I may think it logical, but I doubt everyone will think it logical - unfortunately. |

Logical in this case is likely to be the best explanations humans and the French can up with in the absence of proof positive.
