: Hi Pete, I like cricket, tennis, soccer and
: cycling. Games have rules. It’s not a case
: of division. Prisoners during the wars
: often played soccer, stick ball, and so on
: against their guards.
:
: I think games bring people closer to all
: that is embroiled in humanity. In our
: humanness. I’m thinking here of the
: classic, ‘Chariots of Fire’.
:
: I can understand that a spectator may see
: the game as being an assault towards the
: other (i’m thinking here re, Aussie
: football and Grid Iron..I don’t like these
: games. I find them too rough, violent if you
: like). Games like cricket, need team work.
: And, players are trained to strive for that
: oneness or that unification of being ‘team’
: within the confines of ‘rules’...and these
: rules constitute the game.
:
: I’m not comparing Catholicism and cricket
: here but if the Church didn’t have rules
: well, what a mess things would be. Rules
: are necessary...and on a brighter note may
: well help keep you ahead of the game,
: so-to-speak!
: Cheers

: "I don't like the whole game.
:
: The whole game is let's divide people into
: groups and contrast their oppression.
:
: Fine, play it. See what happens. You're not
: gonna like it. We did that in the 20th
: century. The right-wingers played it in Nazi
: Germany, and the left-wingers played it
: throughout the Communist world. And all that
: happened is that we stacked up the corpses.
: Millions of them. It's not a good game. The
: equity game, that's a bad game..."
