Doh

It's not rain, it's Jesus pissing on your parade.

Why is this news??

Odd Photo, whats going on with the person in the background.

Rain? In England? No way.

Is anyone gonna help that poor lady....looks like she took a tumble in the mud...the photog would have cropped the picture

"Above the Fold" on BSDNC? Who could have imagined?

I like how the 'spiritual' chick has a cancerous cigarette hanging out of her mouth. I thought the new agers were supposed to be health conscious?

Stonehenge is a wonderful place. It does attract a lot of hippie types, but go there during another time, and reflect. Think about how prehistoric man was able to build such huge structures without technology. It's inspiring.

Wht's not so inspiring is the great british weather, unfortunately..

Looks like Stonehenge has a case of hippies. Pretty bad one too, judging by the photos.

Can one say coo-coo-for coca puffs!!:) If one would think about this spectical. It's not really funny. It is just a shame because they have no where to turn for any type of faith. They would rather believe in some type of false God than have faith in the God that placed them here. On planet earth. You see, they are so lost in their own lifes that they try to convince them selfs that the stars are going to rectify their true feelings. A sence of mistrust and a false sence of believing in the reallity. This is so sad:(

Here is a short excerpt from my memoirs regarding travel to Europe in the early 70's. Take it for what it's worth.

'It was the morning of the fall equinox in 1971 and I thought a visit to that ancient monument to the solar system should be a good idea. The trucker who picked me up just outside London around 2am was sympathetic enough to my concept that he drove out of his way to deliver me at the gate of the sacred Druid worship place. There was a chain link fence surrounding the stones, which were a hundred yards from the road or so. The official entrance was through a tunnel under the road from a ticket booth/souvenir shop, which was closed. No one in sight. I walked across the road, threw my alligator bag over the fence, and followed it as easily as hopping a barbed wire fence in west Texas. I walked up to the stones and sat down in the inner circle noticing that the sky to the east was starting to turn pink. About that time, I saw a flashlight emerge from the tunnel and soon there was a short, uniformed guard standing before me asking me what I was doing. Explaining that I had come all the way from Texas to see this marvel, I invited him to sit down with me. He told me I had to leave, the site was closed. I explained the great distance involved with my trip and again invited him to sit and enjoy the sunrise. Anger started to rise in his voice as he pointed out that he had on a uniform of authority derived from the Queen of England. I retorted that the rocks were here four thousand years before there was a Queen of England and again entreated him to sit. He stated that he would contact the local sheriff. I asked what that would mean. He said that I would have to spend the rest of the night in jail. I pointed out that the sheriff could not get to us before the end of the night, and he might not want to waste the sheriff’s trip. Would he like to sit and visit? Taking his 14-inch flashlight in hand, he seemed to be moving toward a threatening posture. I stood up (now looking down at him) and asked him if he was preparing to hit me with it because I wanted to see the sunrise at Stonehenge? After a moments thought, he said “No,” sat down, and entered into a friendly conversation about the place as the color of the stones turned from pink to gold to grey. I left (he allowed me to go through the gate) and continued on my way. He had been blocked from reality by the persona laid on him by the Queen. Sometimes you just have to move past the formal stuffiness to become a person again.'

Stonehenge is such a spiritual, mystical place. It really does give you a feeling of being connected with the earth and the universe. Happy Solstice, People! Blessed be to all who are celebrating.

Wow! Really, how many people say "its the summers solstice"? The people I know say "its the first day of summer"

Why not a picture of a family picnic in a park, kids with a lemonade stand, older people sitting on porches fanning themselves, etc.

I normally love the pictorials, but this was entirely too depressing for "the first day of summer"

Nice Rocks

They're Rocks, put there by humans and have not moved since. Obviously. If anything, it represents an historical landmark of human intelligence by recognizing that the sun stops moving northward and begins its southern movement back to the horizon at the same point and time every year. Why? because of something called an orbit and the Earth's axial tilt in relation to the sun. There is nothing mystical about nature and the Laws of Physics, more specifically, Newton's Three Laws of Motion.

Looks like a bunch of Wacko's to me. No wonder Governments don't pay attention to the mass'es. They say one in three people are a little nut's. Well this story and pictures prove it to me. People are always looking for the little man that sits in a chair in the sky. Unbelievable.

My anger at this time is interfering with my ability to write a logical post. All I can say at the moment is that I'm very upset with the ignorance and hypocrisy of many of the comments here. I would imagine thousands of outraged posts if the ignorant & malicious comments were about a mainstream religion.

On the flip-side, my sincere thank you to all who, in your posts, showed your support and respect for religious/spiritual freedom.

It is human kind(s) eighth attempt to hold the knowledge of the world still. Meaning, an unmoveable, unmanipulated time pieces, the sun. The value of the "community" then could be found accountable to the same measure. 1thessalonians 4:29

The first was a magnatized load stone in a bowl of fluid within a/some moon stone bowl(s) that led man north, north then being somewhere south of todays alaska.....the year of our lord jesus 892 BC....of the same peoples the (desire of our heart) were the iroqoui who met the vikings moving south from hudson bay into northern minnesota....the year of our lord 941 AD. A great settlement, north of the US canadian border, that was produced by mans walk into the unknown then held in place by human and natures limits. They produced leaders who needed a throne, an elder who could teach the traditions that got them there. And then, the eighth generation forgot. We are all of Moses, 53,000 years to the past(left, known) and 2900 years into the future(right, unknown)

Man's intellgence is based on our ability to undo the natural clock.....only fision can do this.

Nut jobs.....

Except...

This, being a leap year, the Solstice was yesterday.

They may very well be a bunch of whackos! But it looks like they had a lot more fun than me on the first day of summer. I spent the day running a 2200 degree furnace with an outside heat index of 105 degrees.

Looks like a classic shroom event to me. What do want to bet there is the scent of maryjane in the air. Wow get me a plane ticket.

Look at these drifters. Now there is an Occupy Stonehenge?

Hippies!
