As pointed out under the previous post, the Swiss colleagues are only not recommending the jab in Spring/Summer. Have to go to the source, and not rely on some rag just quoting the sentences it likes.

Why do the National Trust, the WWF and the RSPB think they can redefine ‘the people’?
The People’s Plan for Nature is a curious case study in green groups ‘guiding’ democracy for their own ends

Northern Ireland. Police have been attacked in Derry today during the Easter Rising Commemoration as they attempt to intervene with the Irish Republican march which was deemed illegal after permission was not granted permission from the Parades Commission.
The PSNI had said in recent days they had “strong intelligence" that dissidents planned to attack officers and warned there could be street violence in Derry.

~Psalms 51~
"1 Have mercy on me, O God, according to your unfailing love; according to your great compassion, blot out my transgressions.
2 Wash away all my iniquity and cleanse me from my sin.
3 For I know my transgressions, and my sin is always before me.
4 Against you, you only have I sinned and done what is evil in your sight; so you are right in your verdict and justified when you judge.
5 Surely I was sinful at birth, sinful from the time my mother conceived me.
6 Yet you desired faithfulness even in the womb; you taught me wisdom in that secret place.
7 Cleanse me with hyssop, and I will be clean; wash me, and I will be whiter than snow.
8 Let me hear joy and gladness; let the bones you have crushed rejoice.
9 Hide your face from my sins and blot out all my iniquity.
10 Create in me a pure heart, O God, and renew a steadfast spirit within me.
11 Do not cast me from your presence or take your Holy Spirit from me.
12 Restore to me the joy of your salvation and grant me a willing spirit to sustain me.
13 Then, I will teach transgressors your ways so that sinners will turn back to you.
14 Deliver me from the guilt of bloodshed, O God, you who are God my Savior, and my tongue will sing of your righteousness.
15 Open my lips, Lord, and my mouth will declare your praise.
16 You do not delight in sacrifice, or I would bring it; you do not take pleasure in burnt offerings.
17 My sacrifice, O God, is a broken spirit; a broken and contrite heart you, God, will not despise.
18 May it please you to prosper Zion, to build up the walls of Jerusalem.
19 Then you will delight in the sacrifices of the righteous, in burnt offerings offered whole; then bulls will be offered on your altar."

"Baroness Falkner said if ‘sex’ is defined as biological sex for the purposes of Equality Act, this would “bring greater legal clarity” to a number of areas, including around single sex and separate sex services".
In her letter, the watchdog boss wrote: “Service providers are sometimes permitted to offer services to the sexes separately or to one sex only.
“ For instance, a hospital might run several women-onlywards. At present, the starting point is that a trans woman with a GRC can access a ‘women-only’ service.
"A biological definition of sex would make it simpler to make a women’s-only ward a space for biological women.”
She also says the change could exclude trans women with a GRC from women’s sports. Currently, organisers must demonstrate that it was necessary to exclude trans women “in the interests of fairness or safety”.
Kemi Badenoch is likely to change the legal definition of sex to "biological sex" in the Equality Act - so BANNING trans women from accessing single-sex spaces.

Alex,
Do you, as a Bible scholar and translator, have anything to say on this quotation "the way, the truth and the life", which in KJV is in lower case?
This seems to me to be important that the original translators should opt for this and why they did so, and that other later interpreters put these into the Way, the Truth and the Life.
I would be very interested to hear what you think about this, and would appreciate any comments you might have.

— A short and sweet reply, Colin, would be that capitalisation of nouns was a later feature than the early seventeenth century (and when it came, it was overdone, as persisted much longer in Danish and forever in German; the capitalisation of key nouns only is an even later orthographical feature). The republishers of the KJV/AV have not felt they had licence to capitalise key nouns, although twentieth-century translators working afresh did so to conform to the usages of their day. Alex
