Buffy -the new Dante? Hell, no.

Interesting brief comment on the state of hell. It does raise the issue that any of our talk about an afterlife is likely to be interpreted by many younger people against a background of Fluffy the Umpire-Sprayer, Millenium and films like Dogma or Stigmata. It makes me wonder whether we really need to overhaul our thinking and our language about such things in order to communicate more accurately; avoiding the sillinesses and hooking into the helpful. I don't think I've seen anything yet that does that. If you know differently, plesae tell me.

"Spend and tax" not "tax and spend"

 I got a response from my MP which got me kind of mad. You'll see why as I reproduce it here. Apologies for the strange changes in types...
