Who Ruined Britain

[Guest Rabbit]

John McEnroe?????? Give me a break.....

But his tantrums did spawn a nation of cheeky disrespectful youth, we call them Chav's now.

He gets paid by the BBC these days to talk utter dross on the telly every Wimbledon fortnight. (thats Tennis btw but with class unlike the American version Flushing Toilet )

"You cannot be serious" was the down fall of McEnroe, I mean that was absolutely outrageous Plus a couple of bouncing rackets

 

Whilst his outburst where not in the spirit of Wimbledon I can hardly see how he has contributed to the down fall of the UK unless he has a multi billion mortgage with Fanny. After all strawberries and cream are still being served.

39 Graham Kendrick

Happy-cr*ppy hymns are a pestilence. They demean adult worship, dragging it to a level even lower than that of Mrs C. F. Alexander's All Things Bright And Beautiful (1848). They are self-obsessed, babyish, cliched, simplistic.

Several authors have written these appalling hymns. The daddy of them all when it comes to such gloopy nonsense, however, is Graham Kendrick, author of Shine, Jesus, Shine.

Kendrick, who has a personal website complete with an efficient shopping section, is the nation's pre-eminent churner-outer of evangelical bilge. Imagine Pam Ayres without the humour.

He started writing hymns in the late Sixties and has now written 400 of the ruddy things. Should it not be a strength of Anglican worship that it does not move with the times and instead provides continuity at a time of baffling change?

But no. It's out with the harmonium! In with the electric guitar! Out with the hymns sung by our forebears, such as He Who Would Valiant Be and Hills Of The North. In with the roughagerich Bind Us Together or the negro spiritual cum grammatical solecism It's A Me, O' Lord.

The sturdy hymns of England, musical embodiment of the stoicism, resolve and undemonstrative solidarity of our nation, are in severe peril, and all thanks to ill-shaven remnants of the late Sixties - grinning inadequates who have never got over the fact that they weren't Cat Stevens.
