VERSION|0.5.1|NAME|Graham|DATE|1379660786|CONTENT|Reverend, so sorry you are in retirement.  This one&#039;s crying out to be satirised.  How could you resist such an open goal?

What a confused mess.  He started off with Steve Job&#039;s bleak but accurate assessment of what death is, and then expressed his dis-satisfaction with that.  Why was not clear as he then went all over the place- Darwin, Wallace, spiritualism, the Victorians, silicon valley, star signs etc etc.  

Not once did he bring up the standard Christian dogma about death and what supposedly follows.  Are Heaven &amp; Hell so unfashionable that no trendy vicar dares mention them?  An ideal opportunity to push the party line and he studiously avoided it.  What&#039;s the point of having a free propaganda slot on the Today Programme if your message is so embarrassingly ridiculous that you dare not mention it?|IP-ADDRESS|95.149.12.82|MODERATIONFLAG|
