As the gentleman quoted in the article was the Bishop of Carlisle, it must have been truly indiscriminate back in 2005...

Re: Floods are a judgement on society, say bishops

Can't imagine why church attendancies are on the decline when you can go and listen to this sort of religious crap. What the hell is it with priests of allsorts that feel they have to butt into things at the worst possible time with rubbish. If this was god's punishment then the term benevolent seems a bit optimistic i am so glad i don't believe in any of the religious stuff.

Cast your bread not onto the water, but allow it to rise to the breadbin, whereby it will float itself

Re: Floods are a judgement on society, say bishops

I guess there's a lot of blessing going on. Possibly on the 7th day He had a ****-up and instead of telling everyone/thing he loved them/it, He just slurred that they were blessed

Well, obviously, that's not meant to be taken literally. It refers to any manufacturers of dairy products...

MR. CHEEKY:
I was only asking her to shut up, so I can hear what he's saying, Big Nose.
MRS. BIG NOSE:
Don't you call my husband 'Big Nose'!
MR. CHEEKY:
Well, he has got a big nose.
GREGORY:
Could you be quiet, please?
JESUS:
They shall have the earth...
GREGORY:
What was that?
JESUS:
...for their possession. How blest are those...
MR. CHEEKY:
I don't know. I was too busy talking to Big Nose.
JESUS:
...who hunger and thirst to see...
MAN #1:
I think it was 'Blessed are the cheesemakers.'
JESUS:
...right prevail.
MRS. GREGORY:
Ahh, what's so special about the cheesemakers?
GREGORY:
Well, obviously, this is not meant to be taken literally. It refers to any manufacturers of dairy products.
MR. CHEEKY:
See? If you hadn't been going on, we'd have heard that, Big Nose.
JESUS:
How blest are those who...
MR. BIG NOSE:
Hey. Say that once more; I'll smash your bloody face in.
MRS. GREGORY:
Ohh.
MR. CHEEKY:
Better keep listening. Might be a bit about 'Blessed are the big noses.'
BRIAN:
Oh, lay off him.
MR. CHEEKY:
Oh, you're not so bad yourself, Conkface. Where are you two from? Nose City?
MR. BIG NOSE:
One more time, mate; I'll take you to the ****in' cleaners!
MRS. BIG NOSE:
Language!
JESUS:
...hunger and thirst to see...

For those interested LINKY
