Well I'm glad to hear it in response to the first part, and that's a shame in regards to the second part.
The truths of religion are never so well understood as by those who have lost the power of reasoning.

...like this one.
I, too, am still alive. I don't post often these days for three basic reasons:

3. I've gotten a little bored with nitpicking the frak out of the Bible and religion.Yeah, I know what you mean. Ignorance persists despite our efforts at enlightenment. And the same old arguments get recycled. I feel sorry for you guys in the US. There is a particular brand of ignorance there that just doesn't seem to have the same influence in most other countries I know of - except the middle east and radical Islamic countries I guess.

lifelong renter, I figure it can't hurt to check things out. That means you might have a nicer place to stay when you come visit one of these days!

: )) I'm glad it's nothing dreadful that's been keeping you away.
Happy house hunting - now should be a good season for that! About a month ago, I got to help my sister get setled into her new 'owned' place - something that's been 'way overdue. At just short of 59, she's finally a property owner: her mortgage and condo fees together about equal her former rent. Only this place is twice the size, half the age and in a much better neighborhood. |
