Jon PENNYCOOK"Fury" as troublemakers try to deny the existence of Eostre and want English Heritage to ignore the pre-Christian heritage of England. I expect these people would be up in arms if anyone told them where St George was actually from.

David AllanI am sure that the young James Cook, before he became the famous explorer and ventured off to circumnavigate the globe, would have been very familiar with this route through the North Yorkshire village of Great Ayton.
He spent his childhood here and attended a nearby school. He must have walked this way many times, along the banks of the River Leven, between the village and nearby Aireyholme Farm, where he lived with his parents.
I love this view, captured in the April sunshine, still managing to evoke a scene of quintessential bygone England.

Something not Easter related.

Jonathan EmmesediThe Three Marys at the Empty Sepulchre -- Baciccio (Giovanni Battista Gaulli) -- oil on canvas -- c.1684 -- Fitzwilliam Museum, Cambridge.
Seeing posts about Easter prompted me to post this Baciccio, with which I fell in love when it was displayed for a while at London's National Gallery many years ago.
Growing up in England, the language, images, sounds, and architecture of Christianity are inescapable, even though England has become a largely post-Christian, secularized society.
As somebody who is not a Christian, I have mixed feelings about this. I was going to post a long thread about these mixed feelings, but it's getting late so that thread will have to wait.

.:\dGh/:.Given how #Liverpool lost to #ManchesterCity, and how the team has played the whole season, I don't believe there are arguments for #ArneSlot to continue.
It's a matter of when, after the seasion ends. I still believe #XabiAlonso is going to come anyway.
