I’ve got Radio 4’s Sunday morning religious programme on, at the moment.
Just as a sign of the times? They’ve a report on, about Syria.
Or, more specifically, on the religious response from the US’s Syrian American community’s.
And, yes, there’s quite an array of opinion: but most of the people the show’s talking to, are …
Well … I think the phrase is ‘anti-war’, which is all to the good, as far as I’m concerned.
With that said … ?
Let’s get a move on … !
