April Fools!

It is April Fools’ Day, but I wonder if anyone can tell? There are so many fools about, and so many foolish opinions expressed, I wonder if we should dedicate 364 days to the Fool and reserve just one for the Wise.

Here is some April Foolery to whet your appetites before you watch the day’s news or speak to an average Briton:

"There is no God"

"Marriage can be redefined at will"

"Killing unborn children liberates women"

"The Church of England has a bright future"

"Diversity is our strength"

"Speaking to God using unintelligible syllables makes Him more likely to act"

"Each road leads to God"

"We elect the cleverest, highest calibre people to rule us"

"It’s okay to ignore bits of the Bible if the Holy Spirit tells you to"

"The Bible says ‘do not be judgemental'"

"Jesus turns Himself into bread"

"I am a descendant of monkeys"

"The Religion of Peace is a religion of peace"

"God guarantees to heal your present body"

"Watching YouTube videos is a great substitute for Bible study"

"A man can turn into a woman"

"Hell is unjust"

"It is kinder to kill sick or disabled people than care for them"

"Deep down, I’m a good person"

I could go on…

The way of a fool is right in his own eyes, but he who heeds counsel is wise. Proverbs 12:15
