Owned up to being a god botherer No he did not actually say that he did not need a visa based on some unproven myth.. He is getting a "Tier 2" visa for UK clearance and entry and then he is covered by Isle of Man law which exempts certain religious workers ie priests and chaplains and etc from the need to apply for a work permit... So it is not the case that a "Sky pilot" can just walk in on the strength of an alleged myth...And it is not totally myth by the way...We are all spiritual beings atheists and agnostics all of us. You cannot exist without having a spiritual side even if you are "agin it!"...You must have a spiritual side or else you would not have taken a stance whatever that stance be....And by the way, if something is true then it must be true for all of us otherwise it would not be true ...What you may or may not believe has no impact on truth...whatever the truth is? ....At least I had a go at sorting it out!

(Here endeth the first lesson.....) You're pretty crap at giving lessons. "I've accepted an offer to work for the Diocese of Sodor and Man, so my work will be religious" is what he said in other words a god botherer (here endeth a better lesson...)

The Well-Manicured Man Posted June 3, 2017 Share Posted June 3, 2017 Keep lots of English cash - not Manx cash - in case there is ever an emergency. If there is a major economic crash, you'll thank me for this advice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Craig King Posted June 4, 2017 Share Posted June 4, 2017 Internet access on the Isle of Man is indeed a bloody joke, and expensive. Time to light that cable or whatever. And while they are at it, turn the power station into flats and take power from UK. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
