This weeks Quantum looks at Diana Rigg, Kool and the Gang, some good things from Donald Trump, the Middle East, China and the Vatican, Suicide, and Happiness.
This week we look at how 'equality and diversity' have become the mantra of the 'progressives' and how this doctrine is neither equal nor diverse. We look at the Christian alternative.
This weeks episode catches up on China, Education, Racism, Covid, Nuclear, plus Chadwick Boseman and Gaelic Psalm Singing.
This Quantum takes an in depth look at racism and the right and wrong responses to it. All the links can be found at theweeflea.com The issue is more complex than the simplistic solutions that we are often offered. But there is an answer...
This weeks Quantum catches up with some world news - and then looks at the key subject of education. The links are all on theweeflea.com - https://wp.me/p3QeUm-6Gy
This episode takes an overview of the Covid situation - providing a broad overview and hopefully some clarity in the midst of a confused mess. What is Covid 19? How have different countries dealt with it? Taiwan? New Zealand? Sweden? the UK? Brazil? What are Covid deaths? What about a vaccine? How has the church reacted?
This weeks Quantum looks at the 75th anniversary of Hiroshima - along with the death of John Hume, an update on China and the Beirut explosion. It's worth waiting to the end to hear a brilliant song - The Clock of the World. All links can be found on theweeflea.com
Quantum is evolving. As from this episode we will be largely focussing on one subject. This week the subject is China - or the CCP - its threat to the West;China and Covid 19; the floods in China; the CCP and its military aggression; a Chinese poem; the CCP and the Church; Taiwan; Hong Kong; China and Australia; and the extraordinary story of the Chinese seeds!
We also remember Olivid De Haviland, Peter Green and consider a song with a message from Pink Floyd. Links for this episode can be found on the Wee Flea blog - www.theweeflea.com

I was born in chains but I was taken out of Egypt I was bound to a burden, but the burden it was raised Lord I can no longer keep this secret Blessed is the name, the name be praised
I fled to the edge of a mighty sea of sorrow Pursued by the riders of a cruel and dark regime But the waters parted and my soul crossed over Out of Egypt, out of Pharaoh's dream
Word of words and the measure of all measures Blessed is the name, the name be blessed Written on my heart in burning letters That's all I know, I cannot read the rest

"Goodbye, my dear ones. Farewell, Wuhan, my hometown. Hopefully, after the disaster, You'll remember someone once Tried to let you know the truth as soon as possible. Hopefully, after the disaster, You'll learn what it means to be righteous. No more good people Should suffer from endless fear, And helpless sadness."
“那美好的仗我已經打完了， 應行的路我已行盡了， 當守的道我守住了。 從此以後， 有公義的冠冕為我留存。” 《聖經》提摩太後書4．7 "I have fought the good fight. I have finished the race. I have kept the faith. Now there is in store for me the crown of righteousness." 2 Timothy 4:7, Holy Bible

Quote from Roger Scruton
“During this year much was taken from me — my reputation, my standing as a public intellectual, my position in the Conservative movement, my peace of mind, my health. But much more was given back: by Douglas Murray’s generous defence, by the friends who rallied behind him, by the rheumatologist who saved my life and by the doctor to whose care I am now entrusted. Falling to the bottom in my own country, I have been raised to the top elsewhere, and looking back over the sequence of events I can only be glad that I have lived long enough to see this happen. Coming close to death you begin to know what life means, and what it means is gratitude.”

Keller “If Jesus Christ was really raised from the dead – if he is really the Son of God and you believe in him – all these things that you long for most desperately will come true at last. We will escape time and death. We will know love without parting, we will even communicate with non-human beings (think angels0, and we will see evil defeated forever”.

Fire when I gaze at thy
Calm and commanding eye,
Like the sun in the sky,
Comrade Napoleon!
Thou art the giver of
All that thy creatures love,
Full belly twice a day, clean straw to roll upon;
Every beast big and small
Sleeps at peace in his stall,
Thou watchest over all,

Walking alongside a spiritual mentor, I’ve been able to discover the truth and saving power of Christ in a whole new way. This new life has given me a peace in my heart I’d never experienced before. Now that I have given everything to God, nothing else affects me. I now live and play with the freedom of knowing His plan will always happen, and at the end of the day, that’s all I care about!” Siya Kolasi

Quote of the week –Sadio Mané
"Why would I want ten Ferraris, twenty diamond watches, or two planes? What will these objects do for me and for the world? I was hungry, and I had to work in the field; I survived hard times, played football barefooted, I did not have an education and many other things, but today with what I win thanks to football, I can help my people. I built schools, a stadium, we provide clothes, shoes, food for people who are in extreme poverty. In addition, I give 70 euros per month to all people in a very poor region of Senegal which contributes to their family economy. I do not need to display luxury cars, luxury homes, trips and even planes. I prefer that my people receive a little of what life has given me".

Quote of the Week: "A Christian should so shine in his life, that a person could not live with him a week without knowing the gospel. His conversation should be such that all who are about him should clearly perceive whose he is, and whom he serves; and should see the image of Jesus reflected in his daily actions." CH Spurgeon.

Quote of the Week - NSW is the last state domino to fall on abortion and marks the end of a more just and decent era, looking back to the Bourne case in 1938 where Justice Macnaghten declared: ‘The law of the land has always held that human life is sacred and the protection the law gives to human life extends also to the unborn child in the womb. The unborn child in the womb must not be destroyed unless the destruction of the child is for preserving the still more precious life of the mother.’
That ethical seriousness has been trashed. We now live under laws, red in tooth and claw, that give no protection whatsoever to ‘the unborn child in the womb’. We are becoming morally a society of dingoes amongst whom no baby is safe.
How did it come to this, and what is there left to love and fight for in a land that sacrifices its young, formally in law, on the altar of male libido and feminist spite

No one knows what the future will look like. Humans like to tell themselves stories, be they in the form of religion or political ideologies, such as nationalism, communism and liberalism. But none of these can adequately prepare us for what may happen in the next 50 years. New technology and climate change might make the world more different than we can possibly imagine. So we had better keep an open mind and hope for the best.

“Let us never assume that if we live good lives we will be without sin; our lives should be praised only when we continue to beg for pardon. But men are hopeless creatures, and the less they concentrate on their own sins, the more interested they become in the sins of others. They seek to criticize, not to correct. Unable to excuse themselves, they are ready to accuse others.”

Quote of the Week –
Gafcon is a movement “to guard and proclaim the unchanging truth in a changing world.” As we heard this week, many around the world are being tossed back and forth by waves of confusion, and blown by the wind of the latest, fashionable, false doctrine. Many are in desperate need of Jesus, who is the only one who can bring salvation. Please lift up his Church daily in your prayers, pray for us as we seek to lead, and join us in proclaiming Christ faithfully to the nations. https://www.gafcon.org/news/a-communique-from-the-gafcon-primates-council

9) Difference between Americans and British – the Cure - https://twitter.com/stormhuntley/status/1112344763049615361?s=12
“Road unsafe when this sign is under water” (US sign).
Robin Aitken – The Noble Liar – “ our ruling elite in Britain– the politicians, lawyers, academics and media people – view the current state of affairs as a positive thing;”we have banished superstition”, they say, rejoicing at the thought; but there remains a sceptical minority who look at the society brought into being by this type of thinking and see little to admire. The liberal hegemony has created an unhappy society which doesn’t really know what it believes in. And whether you are a supporter of the current orthodoxy or not, here is one thing you can rely on: it is not permanent. The qualities that make Christianity a force to be reckoned with– the truth that wins human hearts and compels belief – will not change, and will go on winning converts to its banner. In the coming years, who is to say whether the old beliefs will not triumph again over the arid fictions of our current noble lie?”

“If you want me to stick my neck out, I think I would say that if the Church were officially to approve homosexual partnerships as a legitimate alternative to hetrosexual marriage, this so far diverges from biblical sexual ethics that I would find it exceedingly difficult to stay. I might want to stay on and fight a few more years, but if they persisted I would have to leave” (John Stott, Balanced Christianity p.61)
