AI drones are now being used to kill people. Machines now decide who to kill. But the responsibilty for their deaths remain with other human beings.

And in the Big News today from a Faith Perspective, there isn’t a Big Jewich Festival on now, but there will be in two weeks time. Happy two weeks to Jewish New year everybody!

To celebrate we blow a ram’s horn ever morning. It would be easy to over think the symbolic meaning of the notes of the horn. So that’s what I’ll do, adding some perfunctory references to some current news items along the way.

The Labour Party needs a new Deputy Leader. Which brings me to repentance.

It’s party conference season. Which brings me to John Wesley and the Methodists. John Wesley invented party conferences with the full approval of Jesus.

Yes, if it wasn’t for John Wesley and the Methodists, you wouldn’t have the party conference season to look forward to every year. No wonder Methodist Chapels are as popular as they are today.

Your welcome.

If the warp drive of science fiction ever comes true, then one day humans might be able to step on board a star ship and travel to the stars. Maybe even travel beyond our galaxy into the great inter galactic void. Our view of the universe would then be radically different. We would no longer see the Milky Way from the inside.

We could look towards our nearest large neighbour, the Andromeda Galaxy. It’s view is normally obscured by a myriad of stars from the Milk Way.

Instead, we might see something like this.

This is an image of the Andromeda Galaxy taken over several nights this week in Southend, with my smart scope, the Seestar S50. This time, however, all the local stars have been removed, revealing just the galaxy and a couple of its satellites.

And for those who prefer the real view.

Conditions weren’t perfect. The moon was present for the early part of most nights. And I really must have a word with my neighbours about their spotlight. This is the effect it has on my house and the southern sky when its on, which is frequently.
