    I always think, whenever I see him on TV, that Adams comes across as quite a decent bloke... is that strange?


    I thought what the one woman was saying, that Jesus wasn't born in a manger and it was just Mark trying to show him to be like Moses (I think that was the jist of it :P).. anyway, yeah; interesting

    Nah, I'm sure he is a decent person. He's just in an awkward political position where he can neither condemn nor condone stuff that was done in the name of Republicanism.. he got a bit edgy when one of the people he was interviewing mentioned terrorism

    This whole bit now's very strange. Feels like "lets shoe-horn in some IRA stuff" into a programme about the history of the Bible? :confused:

    well i suppose it's difficult having a man like Adams talk about such a subject without having to bring the IRA into it as alot of it is based on religion. I did find this weeks one more strange than the others i must admit. He was a brave man to agree to do it i think, especially coming face to face with the husband of a woman killed by a bomber in the IRA.
