He'd best make sure he never plays in Saudi Arabia. That way lies a stoning, or a beheading, or if he's lucky, a severe lashing.

I spent several years in a boarding school run by American, Australian and New Zealand Baptists and assorted players who conspired to make life a miserable experience best served by death. I survived that, and probably in reaction, became a photographer of models (I'd originally written a model photographer, but modesty made me change that) for which, perversely, I suppose I owe them a debt of gratitude. Or not. My own soul is in harmony with my own interpretation of my Creator who'd most likely pass amongst those people unrecognized.

I doubt that anyone needs look outwith the further reaches of Christianity to find madness. A pity that some take the good from something and pervert it into a horror show. Whatever became of God is Love?

P.S. Patrick Demarchelier and Janet Jackson did it better!

Some gods are hate and destruction rather than love, Rob.

If these people want to relive the Inquisition it's too bad we can't give them Plague as well for their enjoyment.
