In 1976, a professor of economic history at the University of California, Berkeley published an essay outlining the fundamental laws of a force he perceived as humanity’s greatest existential threat: Idiocy. We see strange decisions abounding - is it because there are just so many many stupid stupid idiots? Mark and Pete have the answers. Buy the idiot by Fy
This vlog was part of a longer live video magazine program earlier today https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=D11mc7mj0tU&fbclid=IwAR3HCpBQQ7wm--CCYSSdrAeWA_wiIuzXgnxJdGK5WeB7L3VIl8Zseb25BhM. Since 1984 the River Mersey on the banks of Liverpool has been a safer place thanks to a professional rescue service that patrols the waters 24 hours a day, 365 days a year. The Mersey Inshore Rescue team is the only full time unit working in the UK, not even the Thames has such a service.
Established in 1984 their principal reason for being is to be able to respond to an air disaster at Liverpool Airport. The main runway of the airport points towards the river and the local emergency planning authorities have long considered the possibility of an airliner having to ditch into the water.
Their base, at Liverpool's pier head, is some 8 miles down river from the airport and the crew must be able to respond to a crash scene from anywhere within 14 minutes. To enable them to do this they have one of the most powerful launches ever seen on the Mersey, a twin engine 175 hp rib boat.

A prayer for you to use and share.
Let All Who Take Refuge In You Be Glad; Let Them Ever Sing For Joy.
Spread your protection over them, that those who love your name may rejoice in you.
Surely, LORD, you bless the righteous;
surround them with your favor as with a shield. (Psalm 5:11-12)

For those of us who grow up within Christianity, one of the first things we’re taught about God is that God never changes; God is the same yesterday as God is today or as God will be tomorrow. Unfortunately, this attribute of God has been historically misunderstood, both to the detriment of ourselves and in the way we see God. Where we get into trouble is not in confessing that God never changes, but when we assume that God never changes his mind. This is dangerous thinking: here Maggie and Pete thrash out the implications. What do you think?Source:

The statistical evidence from mortality curves shows that the #lockdown measures employed by the UK did not achieve the desired results. By contrasting the shape of the curves in England and Sweden I show here the lockdown had a minimal effect, in real terms lockdowns do not "flatten the curve" and certainly do not arrest or stop the spread of Covid-19, the disease caused by the #Coronavirus SARS-COV2 which has been spreading around the world.
I am Peter Timothy Cooper bringing you this episode of the Virtual Vicar as part of a series on why lockdowns don't work.

It used to be a thriving thoroughfare but Scotland Road's fortunes have dramatically changed in recent decades, but a new dawn could be about to begin as its final pub sells up. We mark the passing of this #Liverpool community.
