I've played my Christmas with the Smurfs album every Christmas morning for the past 15 years. That always makes me smile.

I'm glad you're here.
I too read all I could about the gospel of Judas when it came out, and thought it was wonderful. I loved the stuff that implied that Jesus really hated prosthelytizing and would not have approved of any religion based on him.

Quote from: Aggie on February 27, 2012, 04:59:49 PMThis is so very true, but has this not almost always been the case? In the UK, there were almost scandals over top MPs and PMs sending their children to public schools instead of the state-funded ones, when they were saying that there was nothing wrong with state schools. If you can afford it, you have the right to do so, but if the state schools are so good, why not save the money and send them to one?
Regarding your last point, how many top-level politicians' children do you think attend state/public rather than public/private school? Similar to the provision of public healthcare, the decision-makers are ones with very little personal interest in the public system and lucrative connections to alternative service providers. The poorer that the publicly-funded schools are (in terms of performance), the more profitable commercial education providers will be.
