Cameraman learns how to use “Look” and does god too!

Following on from Tony Blair’s lessons in how to be a successful polishitun, our Dave, the heir to Blair, has learned from his master how to use the “Look” word to convey sincerity, where, of course, there is none.

The use of “Look” sounds chatty, warm and fluffy but masks the real motivation of those who want power. He wants to appear to be your mate and, in this latest instance, wants to be a “mate” to all “people of faith”.

(Ed: Is there an election coming up by any chance?) 😉

Cameron does God – just like Blair

His latest use of “Look” comes from his laughably sincere message, repeated (without so many ‘Looks’) in the Church Times, please read and have a sick bag ready. It starts “Look, a huge – a warm welcome to everybody. The Bible tells us, actually, to bear one another’s burden and you will fulfil the law of Christ;“. There are lots more “Looks” to look for – and yes there are prizes for finding all of them! (Ed: no there aren’t)

To prove my assertion that our Dave is just as shallow and hypocritical as was Blair, I quote his previous utterances on religious matters:-

“I believe, you know. I am a sort of typical member of the Church of England. As Boris Johnson once said, his religious faith is a bit like the reception for Magic FM in the Chilterns: it sort of comes and goes. That sums up a lot of people in the Church of England. We are racked with doubts, but sort of fundamentally believe, but don’t sort of wear it on our sleeves or make too much of it. I think that is sort of where I am.” The Guardian 2008

Cameraman misses the far more accurate point that we are a culturally Christian  country. To say we are a Christian country is just plain daft. Even my assertion, that being culturally Christian, will last another two generations is optimistic. The Anglican church is dead as a dodo. As-Salaam-Alaikum.

Here is wisdom concerning religion expressed some years ago:-

Seneca (4 – 65 BCE) “Religion is regarded by the common people as true, by the wise as false, and by the rulers as useful.”

Napoleon Bonaparte (1769 – 1821)

“Religion is excellent stuff for keeping common people quiet.”

“Religion is what keeps the poor from murdering the rich.”

“All religions have been made by men.”

Nick Doody

“ …religion was like an enormous dog. “If it’s yours, you love it, but it is terrifying to everyone else. Above all it should be kept away from children.”
