Secular dating is anti-Christ
While visiting St John’s Co-Cathedral, I was interested in the educational video about the great Caravaggio and his paintings there.
However, I was offended that dates used in the video referred to “CE” - the common era. This offensive secular means of referring to dates seeks to supplant Christianity from our common shared experience.
Are non-believers really so disturbed by the use of BC and AD? I would suggest they have no right to be. And in the house of God! I don’t blame the non-believers but the Church authorities who, presumably, oversaw this abomination.

Interest on ARMS billing

I have recently noticed that I am being charged amounts of interest on my bills.
I have always paid well within the 45 days grace afforded by the company as per the directives on the reverse side of the bill.
Either somebody doesn’t know what somebody is doing or else this could be a subtle way of taxing the consumerReason please, ARMS.

Nurses are not alone
In the departments of health and that for the care of the elderly, nurse staffing is in crisis. Five hundred have left the profession in a year.
