Ooh! Vicar!!
I was told yesterday that our lady vicar used to be a man which I think is pretty cool actually, but it got me to thinking about recent controversies regarding female Bishops.
Basically there are non, and a vote decided it should remain that way.
Would our lady vicar be able to run for Bishop on the grounds that genetically she is and always will be a man? Also, how come the laws of sexual equality do not seem to apply to the church of England? Is Religion excluded from such things?
Purely from a law point of view, because I have no objections or moral dilemma over our lady vicar (good luck to her I say), I find it ironic that the church will accept a man now living as a woman - no matter how convincing they look - over a real woman.
No wonder congregations are dwindling. Isn't it time the C.O.E. adapted to the 21st century? God didn't write the Bible - a man did, probably many men over the centuries.
The core values of compassion, understanding, love and marriage do not need to be undermined. A Two thousand year old document that is not fit for purpose in these modern times is just a piece of paper. You serve the community. We don't serve you.

Solution to Tsunami's??
Have you ever tried to think of a solution to a problem and an idea popped into your head immediately?
The reason I ask is I have been watching the horror unfold in Japan after the Earthquake and Tsunami. The Japanese are experts at designing buildings to survive Earthquakes but the nature of a Tsunami means not much can be done to protect against them.
I'm waffling because my idea MUST have been thought of already, and has not been done, so I'm thinking it must be a stupid idea.
Okay, here goes ---- build houses on Pylons.
One Japanese town hit hard by the tsunami showed an Electricity pylon[?] right in the line of the wall of water as it came in. Everything around the pylon was destroyed, but, thanks to the gaping spaces between the pylons structure, the water ran right through it.
I googled 'houses built on pylons' and got nothing, but then I got bored :O)
With everything I have read and seen about the physics and technology used to combat these natural disasters no one has mentioned pylons??
I'll get my coat .............
