c) Because, sneaking a peek at the topics I’ll have to cover almost immediately if I carry on writing, I realise I can’t go on dodging certain ideological positions – positions that would very much annoy some powerful groups: the government, the opposition, the far left, the left, the centre, the right, the far right, and even that anonymous floating mass which appears in keys to surveys as ‘undecided’ or ‘don’t know/no response’. They would probably also annoy the Catholic Church, the Masons, the Mormons, the Jehovah’s Witnesses, Christian Science, the various occult sects, the Rotary Clubs and the Lions Clubs, and most likely a few social clubs, sports clubs and boules clubs.
