The end of an era? Goodbye Sir Patrick.

Well, if you are a declared atheist, its mildly amusing watching closet atheists squirming. That's all, not trying to prove anything... Brian Cox and people like Dawkins appeared on an atheist seasonal TV show, they are not shy. I suppose if you are in the public eye you are quite cautious about 'coming out' because it might provoke some bigotry from a minority who have deep religious convictions. It's all about money. I suspect Patrick was an atheist. I wonder if there will be any sort of religious service to celebrate his life? Was there one for Jimmy!

Ah! money,should've known.

I felt rather sorry and saddened that an inteligent man could carry that sort of hatred and unforgiveness for so long and more so against a whole country!

He wouldn't be the first but at least he had a reason.

It's sad but we're not the mouldable products we like to think. Real change comes from the upcoming generations, most of us are simply too long in the tooth to change. In that respect death is a good thing.

What I do I find particularly sad is were entire nations hang on to hatred and bigotry for generations...

I could agree he had a reason against the generation that caused and started the war,but he carried the hatred modern Germans and Germany to the grave.

No we're not,that takes work.

Change comes from within.

It's just the same only magnified by the number who constitute the whole.

What? Like the Scots' attitude to the English?
