And in the Big News today from a Faith Perspective, the 1968 film “Song of Summer”. This was about the crotchety old atheist, Frederick Delius, and a nice, devout Catholic, Eric Fenby, who wrote out the music dictated by Delius. Delius mocked Fenby’s Catholicism. Yes, I know, how could anyone possibly mock Catholicism.

But the virtuous Fenby continued, because even though Delius was an evil atheist, he nevertheless wrote beautiful music. The beautiful music was really created by the Invisible Magic Friend. And so, when arrogant, disrespectful, annoying atheists do something beautiful, they are really being spiritual whether they like it or not.

Shoplifters have become shameless. In moral philosophy, shame is regarded as an emotion, rather than a virtue. But thanks to all the shameless people we can now make it a choice to feel shame and so it has become a virtue.

And in the Big News today from a Faith Perspective, animals. They’re great. Animals are spiritual creatures. Animals, like humans, like to play. That’s being spiritual too. Animals get mentioned in the Big Book of Magic Stuff. Yes, animals are that important.

My point is clear.

And in the Big News today from a Faith Perspective, there’s a Big Christian Feast Day today. Happy Feast of the Assumption of the Virgin Mary into heaven. Yes, on this day the Virgin Mary went up into the sky never to be seen again, except by various groups of children in bits of France and Portugal. We know this happened because the Pope said so, and he’s infallible. And if that doesn’t convince you of the correctness of Catholicism then I don’t know what will.

But of course I’m not going to start with that. That may seem trivial compared to world events. No, I’ll start with Trump and Putin. That’s all about Ukraine. Ukrainians are divided between Russian Orthodox, Ukrainian Orthodox and Catholicism, the One True Religion. But they all believe that the Virgin Mary went up into the sky. Mornington Crescent!
