Ten Views

Unlike Mr Bolan and Ed I thought I’d play this one straight.


Ten views I hold without evidence


  • Christmas is a global disgrace and ought to be abolished.
  • People who eat dogs are uncivilised.
  • Certain kinds of ‘music’ are vile and the people who listen to said ‘music’ have a serious want in them.
  • Most politicians are self-serving bastards. It’s why they become politicians. Despite this having elected representatives is a Good Thing.
  • The bible is not the word of God. It is a man-made construct. Ditto all the other holy books.
  • The cult of celebrity is not new. It exists to distract us from the important stuff. Other than that it is harmless as long as we keep a weather eye on the important stuff.
  • People are getting stupider.
  • Men and women have more in common than not.
  • Segregated education is wrong and has exacerbated the divisions in Northern Ireland society. The Catholic church has perpetrated this wrong for decades.
  • Prayer helps.

So, what kind of music falls under the third point, then?

Probably the kind you like...and Daniel O'Donnell.

There are two kinds of music. Good (the stuff I like) and everything else.

As you *know* I drive a Rolls Royce, 'cause its good for my voice.

Why are some people music snobs? And why do the rest of the people listen to dross?
