Where debating everything under the sun is only the beginning

A boring man who thinks he is something whilst trying to be associated with the label some give him of being intellectual and wonderful. He is dead now and in practical terms for the bulk of people outside of the classy would-be smart alecs no practical great loss. His own brother Peter is a well known and intelligent journalisy=t here in Britain and not only a Christian minded man but an active member of the Church of England so balances out that pain on the backside who during his life thought he was something.

So the video will no doubt be noted as special to the people who like to think they are above others intellectually or in knowledge but I will stick with the existing brother Peter!

I might not agree with my dear Catholic, Portuguese friend, Belfrager, on many things, but at least the Catholics don't go about saying a dead man is "no great loss". At least they go about trying to live their creed.

Unless you actually meant "the true Catholics", you should look a little closer. 

What a pathetic and stupid load of old cobblers in an attempt to tackle me sonny!

And using the widespread corruption everywhere of the Church of Rome as an immature further attempt. The same Church in your place that has been bankrupted in several places due to court actions! That man is NO loss but his brother would be hence my stand by him. That interviewing was as boring as someone claiming democracy was a full blown part of the ex-colonies. Mind you it was Protestants who founded your place and looked like doing well until legions of RC Irish came in and did the widespread corruption games. (along with Italian Papists too!).

Have tried to make allowances for you due to your weather or maybe going through a boring day. 

My? What are you talking about? You must be confusing me with somebody else. 

Remember: I'm atheist.

I'm critisizing the protestant sects and cults that charges 10% taxes ...

Im Jahr 2013 erhielt die Römisch-katholische Kirche in Deutschland etwa 5,5 Milliarden Euro Kirchensteuer

In Germany, Roman Catholic Church earned 2013 through church tax 5,500,000,000 EUR.

The Catholic Church doesn't charges church taxes period.

Five thousand and five hundred million euros per year just in Gemany? wau. Are you quoting the almanac of hallucination?

It was the agreement between a famous German leader, one you may have heard about and the Vatican.
The leader vanished in a bunker at the end of WWII but his law survived and is more alive than ever.

And keep in mind, those five thousand and five hundred million euros per year is not the only source of revenue, the RCC enjoys here in Germany.

BTW, did you know that the RCC owns here 8,250km² (square kilometer) being the biggest private land owner of Germany?

Almanac of hallucination you say?
It's funny to see how ignorant you can get when it comes down to some facts.    (Blessed are the ignorant.    )

Well the Roman Church needs money very much and especially in places like America

Funny re that dig about religion from a man in a country that boasts across the world about how great it is!

And do not forget: the largest border with Mexico.
(What would the USA be without them?)

Scots represent 8.4 per cent of the UK's total population, but they generate 9.4 per cent of its annual revenues in tax -- equivalent to £1,000 extra per person. The remaining £624 is easily accounted for by decades of UK government under-spending in Scotland on defence and on other items which are not routinely broken down by region, such as foreign office services

So it seems a good time to go through the numbers on that narrower question of whether Scotland gets more in terms of public spending than it gives back in revenues.
For readers who'd rather not wade through the statistics: the answer is yes, Scotland does get a net subsidy.
