Life has become more ghastly busy than I had anticipated, so the promised long-winded exegesis may be somewhat delayed.Lallands Peat Worrierhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07238432265194046726noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1638916042737526171.post-20514841015568034092009-08-06T15:28:39.092+01:002009-08-06T15:28:39.092+01:00Some parts of the article are easy to refute but I...Some parts of the article are easy to refute but I look forward to finding out what you have to say about the religous angle. For all its flaws, the article makes a good point about cosying up to relgious interests. This has become increasingly apparent in the SNP, not only at a leadership level but in choice of candidates.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1638916042737526171.post-53604073896321243502009-08-05T23:00:44.176+01:002009-08-05T23:00:44.176+01:00I read it, reflected on it and wrote a two part re...I read it, reflected on it and wrote a two part response to it on Scotsvoices, http://scotsvoices.blogspot.com/2009/08/on-nationalism.html<br /><br />The whole article is based on the unionist template of:<br /><br />1. Scotland is too small too be a proper country<br />2. Scotland's history is mostly fake, we're all British<br />3. Internationalism means no Scotland<br />4. Nationalism is a distraction from the "real" issues.<br />5. The SNP has conned the voters into voting for them.<br /><br />The whole article is a rehash of these well worn themes. Not much original thought from Paul in there.DougtheDughttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02952281599715356995noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1638916042737526171.post-25601504983686969732009-08-05T19:02:39.748+01:002009-08-05T19:02:39.748+01:00I read the article - it was a scary view into the ...I read the article - it was a scary view into the mindset of international socialism - normally the hatred and contempt for nation, country and religion is better hidden.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1638916042737526171.post-89480420186814348172009-08-03T11:34:49.105+01:002009-08-03T11:34:49.105+01:00I've written my take on it today.
