It’s a carefree existence when consequences never cross your mind. The joys of irresponsibility are always a tightly inflated bubble, every stupid idea just makes perfect sense. The nostalgia.

Another one is tripe. Honey comb tripe on account of its look.

The other offal that’s popular is lamb brains generally on toast. Steak and kidney pies.

Liver is really good for you. We call it lambs fry. Lamb liver onions and bacon then thicken gravy with corn flour. Chicken or beef liver tastes just the same to me.

Rock ball. Used to throw rocks at each other. It was always fun till someone got hurt, accidentally.

Gender is also a major factor in trends.

If aren’t going to contribute to topic at hand, then get off my thread mate. Don’t hijack people’s threads with your ranting.

And into the garden a serpent did come.

The whole point of the Written Word of God is to receive the Word of God Incarnate, Jesus Himself in the Eucharist and receive His Life. When we eat Jesus Flesh and drink His Blood in the Eucharist we abide in The Word and The Word abides in us. We receive direct Life from the Eternal, God...

You will find the highest levels of security are believers, because they have to take separate qualified oaths, further to the one they already took. The first thing they establish is that an oath means something vital to you. It’s not just a great legal peril they want you to feel. They want...

People get their arms and legs tangled up with their testicles on these moral questions, when it is actually quite simple.

Wrath sure, but dispassionate Justice is perfectly fine. I remember the WWII flamethrower guy clearing Japanese defences saying, “ It was just a job “. He didn’t have any malice in what he was doing. His cause being established as just, repelling the Japanese invaders, it was simply a case of...

And yet they were referring to the same Jesus we do. Like Luther calling those that raped nuns and burned their convent, “ Holy warriors “ of Christ.

When Anabaptists murdered people and burned towns to ashes, because God commanded it, was that the same God as the atheist and Christian? Unfortunately, yes, it was the same God they were referring to. Many have done horrible things in the name of the same God people refer to.

Through circumstance and history you have had the benefit of literacy and education and cultural enforcement and affirmation to precisely form and inform your conscience. You will be judged by that informed refined conscience. Others will not be judged by your conscience. Don’t be so hasty as...

You appealed to the authority of your 40 years of examination of certain things, ironically. Besides, you haven’t truly examined the first question. I’ll spell it out. As Joes example points out. When Sam Harris an atheist says he doesn’t believe in God and we say we do believe in God. We...

The first question requires bother, and people can’t be bothered with it, so they scurry to the second question and start proof texting the hell out it. Easy, Lazy, and preaching to the choir. It is hard to be disciplined here, but it is doable.

No, the ancient Israelites were not Trinitarians, nor are the Jews today. You are not disciplined enough to stay on the first question but have gone on to the second question.

Joe seems to me like someone who is encouraging more rigorous thinking, especially on Paul’s teaching here. Sarcastic is not a word I would assign him. People forget that Catholics have been dealing with Muslims for well over 1000 years. Lots of words have been exchanged, not to mention certain...

Is that all. What you need is the 1000 to 2000 year perspective that ancient Christian tradition gives you. The same hope extended Muslims, is the same hope extended you. Fact is, we are all God’s creatures, made in His image and likeness, but for the Grace of God we could be one of them in...
