Steven asks…

Malta is a great holiday destination and why is not advertised more?

Malta is a place with history and more from the clubs in paceville to the churches and beyond .Valletta is a place for the family .This island malta is one of the only places where children can run free on the island and be safe.This little island malta is hidden from the travellers tours and why is not on the travel tours guides.?

Doug answers:

Malta is very beautiful but at the end of the day it is still a small island and especially in this day and age it has a lot of competition from larger countries vying for a share of the lucrative market.

Some countries are really ploughing money into advertising e.g. If I turn on CNN then I constantly see adverts for Montenegro, India, etc all the time

Malta has an established tourist base already and one of my friends was Maltese but living here in the Netherlands (but she spent every summer in Malta and was planning to retire back there again). She told me that in the summertime it is actually a little bit overpopulated with tourists anyway. Therefore I can understand that the Maltese government is reluctant to invest huge sums on money in attracting more tourism for which there is not sufficient capacity (at the risk of spoiling the experience for current visitors or upsetting local residents)

So yes I agree, lovely country, but I don’t think it needs more advertisements at the current time.

Susan asks…

World history help ( shorter ) 2?

Doug answers:

James asks…

How gullible are Christians to believe that there was no religion in Political History and?

our fore-fathers were only secular in belief? note:( http://www.WatchmenPastors.org and click on Briefings for details)
this narrator takes us on a tour of the Capital Building where the early history in the 1600′s show Congress publishing its own Christian Bible and using the Capital Bldg, as a church before and after official business.
What else can we learn about our Country’s rich History when we’re begin told otherwise about Christianity in Government/Buildings?
Thanks to all for catching my error of first congress. At the urging of Massachusetts and Virginia, the First Continental Congress met in Philadelphia on Sept. 5, 1774, and was attended by representatives of all the colonies except Georgia. Patrick Henry of Virginia declared: “The distinctions between Pennsylvanians, New Yorkers, and New Englanders are no more. I am not a Virginian but an American.” This Congress, which adjourned Oct. 26, 1774, passed intercolonial resolutions calling for extensive boycott by the colonies against British trade.
All that to say, that many here are quick to accept those contending that first members of Parliament and Government didn’t establish our Government with Religious tones and overtones of religious beliefs.
Now look where our Government is headed without it…
