“Perhaps unsurprisingly, there's a paradox here! Kierkegaard's own indirect communication proposes that we start with the experience of those who don't believe and meet them on their own ground. His success in doing this is evidenced by the fact that, at least for some periods of the 20th century, aspects of his work became a major focus for radical thinkers of various kinds, including the non-religious and, interestingly, a significant number of Jewish thinkers (Buber, Rosenzweig, Taubes, and others).” BelieveKindFactsReligiousNumbersFocusCenturyCommunicationPeriodsMajorsAspectDon't BelieveIncludingVariousSignificantRadicalParadoxThinker20th CenturyProposeIndirectSignificant NumbersNon Religious Author:George Pattison

It's got the largest number of antique shops in the UK, so it's a great place to fence stolen goods. It's got tremendous communication: you've got the sea ports, you've got the channel tunnel, you've got Gatwick Airport 25 minutes away, and London's 50 minutes away by train.
