Indeed .. and I have to mention that Simon of 'Fairport' plays annually in my neck-of-the woods to this day. :D Fairport's Cropredy Convention (formerly Cropredy Festival) is an annual festival of folk and rock music, headed by British folk-rock band Fairport Convention and held on the edge of...

My father worked for "the firm" .. an officer in the Royal Navy. We didn't get on too well .. diverging paths in life .. "good Lord, youv'e gone native!" :D Since the WW's, the Navy (and shipbuilding) has dramatically declined .. 'what goes up, must come down'.

I've heard that "life begins at 40". :) On a scientific basis, I would say that it is around 40, that our bones begin to deteriorate.. ..that is, on average .. naturally, through malnutrition or disease, it is much earlier.

..then, why did you say that "there is no possibility of any gods"? :)

I guess it means spiritually bankrupt .. no awareness of ultimate realities other than worldly pursuit.

Should old acquaintance be forgot, and never brought to mind? Should old acquaintance be forgot, and auld lang syne? For auld lang syne, my dear, for auld lang syne, we'll take a cup of kindness yet, for auld lang syne. HAPPY NEW YEAR to those that celebrate, and those that don't. 😁

Make it all milk (semi-skimmed), and it should be all right.. :) An 8-ounce cup of hot chocolate has about 9 milligrams of caffeine, while an 8-ounce cup of brewed coffee has around 95 milligrams. Larger sizes, such as the “grande” size in many coffee shops, has between 200 and 300 milligrams.

Not really .. Jesus Christ was born at some point. :)

..and Merry Christmas to you and family.. ..but not too merry (liquid spirits) .. I assume you will be attending mass tonight :)

Poker? ..not a very sociable game .. I remember in the UK (and most likely many other countries), 'whist drives' were popular. It is basically "trumps" with all cards in play. Partners sit opposite each other with 13 cards each( a table of 4), and the pairs have to get the majority of tricks. It...

If only.. 🐻‍❄️

I see blasphemy as a social evil .. it is not that G-d would be angry in a literal sense, but it is something that satan would encourage us to do. ..as in the video, it is something that is likely to weaken our faith .. significantly upon repetition. All of the commandments are for the benefit...

For me, it pertains to Divine guidance .. a seeking of truth, and how it relates to family and community.

As Einstein says "It's all relative". :) In this instance, the sun appears to "set", as we are not really standing still.. ..we are spinning on a globe.

One of my sons is a vegan .. he always checks ingredients, and is more strict than me in that regards, these days. I will eat most things in moderation .. but not anything containing pork .. however tiny %. I love vegetables .. particularly okra, aubergines, squash. :) ..and cheese is often...

Maybe in your 'neck of the woods'. :)

No. :) Billionaires are not billionaires by accident.

It's a pity RJM is not present to clarify what I mean.. Perhaps he would quote:- 24. No man can serve two masters: for either he will hate the one, and love the other; or else he will hold to the one, and despise the other. Ye cannot serve God and mammon(wealth). - Gospel of Matthew 6 - ..and...

Really? Is that why you have so many likes? ..or have you "fixed the clock" .. ;) I feel sure there will be new members who claim to be clairvoyant .. no app needed. :D
