Frome, Heart of Wessex

Directory Summary

In these Frome pages, AskWhy! gives a few facts about the history and people of Frome and its Wessex environs. It is in the heart of the old Saxon kingdom of Wessex, and therefore at the center of a plethora of interesting historical houses and places. Frome is a long neglected town, but the neglect has preserved much of it, and it is slowly reviving as its more glamoorous neighbours get too expensive or overcrowded. It is not a tourist attraction itself but is just the place for a holiday center for seeing old England from Stonehenge to the Tank Museum, with a few tankards of cider thrown in of an evening! Cheers!

The Wisdom of Carl

Societies that teach contentment with our present station in life, in expectation of post mortem reward, tend to inoculate themselves against revolution. Further, fear of death, which in some respects is adaptive in the evolutionary struggle for existence, is maladaptive in warfare. Those cultures that teach an afterlife of bliss for heroes—or even for those who just did what those in authority told them—might gain a competitive advantatage.

Carl Sagan, The Demon Haunted World (1996)

Before you go, think about this…

The Bishop of London, Dr Mandell Creighton, was telling the Earl of Rosebery that he easily overcame dowsiness, should it come upon him. “I always start to write a sermon, and in a few minutes I am wide awake. “My problem is the opposite”, said Rosebery, “I endure many sleepless nights”. “I have a cure for that too”, said the bishop, “If I cannot sleep, I start to read my sermon, then I am sound asleep in a few seconds.” Lord Rosebery, who had shown some interest, turning away with a dubious glance, muttered that the medicine could be of no use to him, as it was always his practice to choose the lesser evil.
