In Patrick's book,does he make reference to Aethists,Buddists,Hindus or JewsWho are the PublishersWho are the Chain sellersWho are his AdvisorsWho is his AttorneyWho is his ManagerWho is his HeadmasterWho is his Boy/Girl friend(watch that one)Those who complain about others..commit the same "crime".Peoples innermost feelings should never be extracted by another,whatever the method..For that be a crime.Has anyone bothered to investigate further prior to making commentary

I have listened to a dozen of Pat's poems and I find them quite fascinating.. in a good wayHe injects 'indiscretions' into the line in a quite ruthless manner that wreaks of commercialism.He will naturally grow out of this after the piggy bank has been filled Then get down to the seriousness business of becoming our Dylan2Then go to America and remain sober in thought and well as body.Have the Manic S.P been to the States yet?Patrick ever go to Church?So many questions,so little time

DeadPassiveAll dead are passive are they not.Unless you are a believer of courseYou quote a nameless writer "Blasphemy is a victimless crime"Yet you have freedom of speech and are reluctant to use this "victimless" weapon in attempting to express yourselfPat Jones knows the intracies of marketing and exposure.Brother taught himWhy he would introduce Jesus into a poem is self evident.Ask yourself this simple question'Cui Bono'who benefits other than Patrick -a Historical Welsh Saint

Indeed, well said.

As Douglas Adams said... why is it that you can criticise a political party or a particular economic policy etc... but you are not, under any circumstances, allowed to criticise a religion.Insulting a god, at the end of the day, it NOT insulting a person. They may choose to be offended, but it is not a crime."Blasphemy is a victimless crime".

Watching Patrick Jones read his poetry aloud is moving in the exextreme, like seeing an octogenarian lady tumbling down a flight of concerete steps into the town square. He nevertheless deserves our support.

I commented:problems just exist;I've been creating stuff for some time now&what I know is:what I have already heard so far is somewhat childish and annoying as a subject,yet fun& also creating stuff even out of great inspiration is hard work and excruciatingly boring,both at the same time...I've even seen some of your poems from when you were about 19 years of age;)Now back to me!I don't tend to be descriptive, but rather abstract and imaginative, which could also pass on as stupid-crazy;blah:)

Thank you for this comment. Indeed, I think the majority of people of faith (and atheists) are open to criticism and uncomfortable with fanatic variants of their beliefs. Fanatics (from whatever viewpoint) want silence because they lack confidence in their arguments and in their voice; open debate and artistic freedom is anathema to such people.
