[kj] kj2010 Feast Of Fools

[Brendan Quinn]

The circumcision of Jesus has traditionally been seen, as explained in the popular 14th century work the Golden <http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Golden_Legend>  Legend, as the first time the blood <http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Blood_of_Christ>  of Christ was shed, and thus the beginning of the process of the redemption <http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Salvation#Redemption>  of man,

 

Simple, duh, dunno why I had to look it up. Merciful god redeems bad humans (humans, bad, not eat apple, told you so! tsk), not by, I dunno, a little nose-twitch like on Bewitched, or a Jedi hand-wave, or a thought, but ...get this: genital mutilation of god’s virgin-born son. Of course!  

 

PS: Darren you’ll probably appreciate this series, Mr Deity:

I'm not sure I like the sound of that. Did they deep-fry them, like onion rings? Or perhaps play mini-quoits?

At least it was consistent with what Jaz was saying 2 months ago at the cheese & wine party :oD as he explained to me the Feast Of Fools is an concept dating back to medieval times & I'm sure Jaz has some ideas planned for the gigs ... http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Feast_of_Fools

that title is bound to backfire with pretentious music journalists. I would have thought a title like 'Continuing Under New Tangents Systematically' would have been a more suitable name.Only one problem just like BTATS & ED&VRE can anyone think of a simple acronymn that we could discuss this potential title of the obviously outstanding new album from Killing Joke on the gathering list?

PS-Does anyone want to swap an old lawnmower for a ski chalet in Austria?
