Just a quickie with one eye on the preceding title and another on my previous rants re carols. Whilst I am not averse to altering the last line of "Once in Royal David's City" to remove the image of a colourless eternity of waiting around, I generally object to faffing around with perfectly good hymns for the purposes of making them comprehensible to "the unchurched" or "young people" or whoever else we think are too thick to work out what the words mean for themselves, or even worse, because of the all-pervading spectre of political correctness and a cock-eyed attempt at inclusion. Well over on "Ship of Fools" they are voting for the most annoying word changes in carols.
