So just like religion then

Thank Clapton...

You remind me of the guy who trued to explain apartheid to me.. staring with the assumption...

"Look the chinks, coolies and the blacks they aren't like us"...

I said. "Actually I think that fundamentally they are"...

He said "well then there is no point in talking to you is there"?

Or the communist at University who wanted to talk to me about being 'working class'

I had spent a year on the shop floor of a factory. I knew more about the 'working class' than he did.

All worldviews, dear boy are based on metaphysical assumptions, none of which are demonstrably true.

We cant prove that science is correct, only that it gives the right answer,. We cant prove that religion is correct, only that it makes people feel better.

We cant prove that Marxism is correct, only that it brings war, conflict., hatred and misery - all justified by a faux morality stricter than any religion except Islam.

Er no. You don't do drumming in an overcoat

Paul, your link goes to a video in portrait phone style with subtitles, containing only parts of the item I saw on iPlayer. There was no drummer. Unfortunately, on iPlayer they only have today's Breakfast so you can't see the original clip for 7th April which was in normal widescreen.
