Easter Play and complaint on Facebook
I recently put the following article on Facebook and got a rather interesting reply see after article
Easter
My Grand Children go to a Roman Catholic School and they recently re enacted the Easter Story in a play to the parents, I just wonder how many School Children are taught the story of Easter or do they think it is just a time to eat lots of Chocolate?
I am some what perplex by the various Super market chains who refuse to show any religious content on their Easter Eggs, some say that they do not want to offend other religions but their main reason is they can not sell those with a Religious Content?

Surely these Supermarkets whose only God is money and profit must
realise that Easter is a Christian Festival , a celebration of Jesus
being crucified and returning from the dead to save us. Now you may not
agree with that BUT surely it is hypocritical to make money out of a
Festival you do not support?
Some of our Secularist faction believe that Easter should be banned as a Bank Holiday and a National Celebration maybe called the “Arriving of Spring Holiday” well sorry Facts Population of UK 63 million 2012 59% Christian 25% atheists agnostics do not and could not care 16% other religions. 371,70000 Christians (just over 37 million) Humanist/Secularist 28,000 which 0.044% . Give 20 Philosophers one question and they will come up with 20 answers and none have come up with the Philosophy of Christianity
Militant Secularist want the banning of religion they differ from a Secularist Country where Religion plays no part in Government but still values the part Religion plays in society. The laws, moral code, ethics in the UK are built on Christianity and cannot be forgotten

Judo ban MMA and Cage Fighting
If you are interested in Modern Day Judo here are two links you must read the first is from BJA Coach Don Werner I think I agree with everything he say so much so I have suggested he try Sambo
http://www.pinewoodjudo.com/dons_view_view.php?id=224
http://www.mmafighting.com/2015/3/8/8170623/what-is-judos-problem-with-mixed-martial-arts
There are lot of things in this article where I agree with the IJF BUT what I do not agree with is the control the IJF and French want over their Judoka we are supposed to live in a Democratic society the IJF sounds like a dictatorship
Yet according to the article MMA is banned in France
http://www.mmaweekly.com/despite-ufc-lobbying-efforts-france-upholds-ban-on-mixed-martial-arts
The way I read it is that Cage Fighting is banned now to my mind that is not the same as MMA. MMA just means Mixed Martial Arts which means anything you want it to be, MMA is not a recognised style like Judo or Sambo. It is all things to all men until someone can actually come with a definitive answer to what MMA is how can anyone ban an abbreviation of Mixed Martial Arts? Many years ago I suggested that MMA should be registered as a product but I was laughed at. I said call this new style just MMA breakaway from the word Mixed Martial Arts if this had been done you would not have the problem you have today.
With regard to Cage Fighting that is a style which is literally fighting in Cage.It is not something I watch or enjoy but once again why ban it? if people want to watch, participate and if it is well run why not let it carry on.
