Bothersome Questions


1. All religions claim to worship One [invisible] God. How then, does one religion know that another religion is worshipping a false [invisible] God? Do they stand these invisible Gods side by side and say "My God is more invisible than your God"? HOLD ON! There is only ONE God. Someone must be pretending there is a second invisible God there. Are they?

2. Until approx. 3 years ago diesel cost less than petroleum, said to be because there was less refining. How do the Oil Companies then justify the fact that deisel is now up to 20c per litre dearer than petroleum?

3. If oil prices are tied to some price parity, why does the USA pay half the amount the rest of the world pays?

In The Beginning

The Kingdom of De Glib was established c.1973 by the self-proclaimed King Wayne De Glib I, who was at the time stranded in Thailand. I immediately dubbed myself The Duke of Garbage, and set about establishing the Kingdom by writing letters back to the King.

On his return he joined a group of musicians who backed one of Australia's favourites sons. And so the Kingdom grew, bringing in Sir Mops de la Skeens [as Minister for Discreet & Noisy Affairs With Ladies], Baron Peter von Yodelburg, Cardinal St John Bush & Sir Stephen O'Tinkle [Chancellor of the Cornflakes].

After a couple of years of almost moving, the Kingdom has basically laid dormant up until now. The main objective of this Kingdom is to find and participate in the escape [from dusty cupboards & boxes] of rare & unconventional music, while searching for that elusive Holy Grail - piece of earth....ooops sorry! Peace On Earth.

A recent discussion brought out the ludicrous suggestion that the secret to finding Peace On Earth was actually hidden in each person's heart, brain and kidneys.

Which reminds me, I must eat
