"Klass Hendrikse is a Pastor at the Exodus Church, a Dutch Protestant Church in central Holland. A conventional service, with hymns, readings from the Bible, and the Lord's Prayer. But the message from Mr Hendrikse's sermon is not conventional at all – 'Make the most of life on earth, because it will probably be the only one you get'. |

I like it! Can we also take a big JCB and big demolition ball-and-chain to...er....the work ethic, that nebulous thing that journalists like to call the economy, and also that nasty sort of "Englishness" that puts the word "English" in front of all sorts of right-wing loony movements. |

Very interesting, of course while religion is founded on belief in a god, it provides for many people a lot more than just a platform for worship of that god. For many it is the basis of their community and more, so I suppose it is possible to be a minister of religion for many reasons other then belief in its god. |
