Secular Progressive Bonsoir Keith, t'other day you referred to me as a "Secular Progressive" equating it to mean (in my case) socialist/communist, having finally bothered to look this term up, which I hadn't heard before, I find it translates to:
adjective Secular progressive is defined as a non-religious person or organization that promotes and supports liberal change and reform. Whilst I believe in God, far as the rest of the meaning goes I thank you for your very flattering appellation, I might even have a T-shirt printed with this on it. Reform, especially parliamentary reform, would be the culmination of my existence.
