I Bet People In Sodom And Gomorrah Used Mobile Phones. A Lot

Adam Lovejoy writes: I bet people in Sodom and Gomorrah used mobile phones. A lot. You probably could hear them on the streets of S&G, screaming into their mobiles: Blah, blah, blah!!! Useless, meaningless drivel coming from all over the place: ‘And I says to him, I says…’, ‘She DIDN’T, DID she…?’, ‘I’m on a carriage, I’m on a carriage…’, ‘I’m in the pisser, dear, but I can talk’, ‘That rash I told you about, well, it’s back…’ And I bet there were loud irritating ringtones blasting from every bloody corner and every bloody window in S&G. And youngsters were all talking on the mobiles, endlessly, about nothing in particular. And disgusting thugs in hoods were showing off their latest handsets,...

And I don’t doubt for one single moment that the pop charts in S&G were dominated by the winners and losers of the X-Factor and American Idol, as pop music in those days must have been as shitty as it is now. TV song contests in S&G must have been hugely successful simply because a large proportion of TV audiences craved...

Will We Notice The End Of The World Happening? Fainthearted Should Not Read This

Adam Lovejoy writes: I often wonder whether we would notice end of the world happening? We keep on waiting for some huge disaster to occur and wipe out our civilization, but in reality, if you think about it, the end of the world would probably have nothing to do with devastating earthquakes, colliding planets or massive floods. It would be all about the total collapse of the inner world of mankind, of morality and decency and respect for others and for true values. What would be the point of technological advancement if the people who would be benefitting from it would have no inner peace and no moral compass to guide them? The end of the world would mark a stage when mankind gets most of its priorities in a twist and lives in a world of dangerous make belief. The difference between good...
