The Tabernacle

[The Saviour]

Fine sirs,

The intention of this thread is to promote thought and debate of a diverse and challenging nature.

I have used the 'off topic' room for the simple reason that anything upon anything can be discussed in it.

As your host, I will service the thread regularly. I hope that the thread is contributed to by many. This will give us a broader sense of the person behind the snooker fan.

Can I start by putting a few points forward?

Should darts be given the status of Olympic Sport?
Is Global warming a genuine threat or an imaginary monster dreamed up and employed for political manipulation?
Is Adrian Durham a wind up merchant?

1. I can't tell whether I think it should be given Olympic status. All I know is that it will probably be a very very long way for darts to become Olympic. Apparently, it's not even a "recognised" sport yet. To read up on the matter: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Olympic_sports

2. It is a serious threat but it's also used for political propaganda. Still, it deserves the attention that it gets.

3. Who is Adrian Durham?
