Originally written by anonymous Cistercian monks and later translated to English by Fr. Frederick Oakeley, this song has had widespread popularity, both as a modern-day Christmas carol and also as a solemn hymn sung at churches. It tells about the birth of Christ in Bethlehem, and encourages all the faithful of the world to...
Editor writes... I've never thought of Neil Oliver as a "devout Christian". Yet, in the above monologue, he puts just about every clergyman in the land to shame by his stout defence of Christmas and the Christian heritage of the west; he issues a stark warning - after the fashion of the Old Testament prophets...
Editor writes... As we approach Christmas, there will be a treat (NOT) in store for too many Catholics, when they hear fundamental errors preached in homilies by their priests.

Comment: Note that the interviewer, Richard Madeley, is keen to put on record the fact that he is "not a conspiracy theorist". Even in the face of self-evident sinister totalitarian governance, people like him in broadcasting still think that this is about a virus. Gimme strength. Remember, in a recent previous programme his interviewee told...

For a child is born to us, and a son is given to us, and the government is upon his shoulder: and his name shall be called, Wonderful, Counsellor, God the Mighty, the Father of the world to come, the Prince of peace. (Isaiah 9:6) Comment: A very happy Christmas to one and all from the editor...
