Einstein '“Insanity is doing the same thing over and over and expecting different results.” The people leading us are insane.
Terrible news Padraig. I feel bad for the poor dogs who are stolen, or those who end up in uncaring hands, how cruel.
I love Jordan Peterson, I really do. I understand he is close to a form of Agnosticism/ vague Belief. But as Jesus said to Nicodemeus, 'You are not far from the Kingdom of God' One thing I did find ironic and I never heard anyone else comment on this. His, 'Twelve Rules for Life', inform us how to live sound lives. Yet poor Jordon appears to be in a prolonged kind of break down coupled with heavy drug abuse. The irony being he is instructing young people how to lead good, productive lives when he himself appears to have crashed and burned. Still I love him. St Augustine must have been very much like him before his conversion.
Puppies from Labrador dogs are selling for around £2500 pounds (ar0und $3400). Astonishing. Do all l these people looking to buy puppies actually care about dogs? Or are they looking to escape curfews?
Cool. Here it's made-from-scratch Tamales. A locally owned & operated donut shop makes and sells them every holiday season. A favorite restaurant used to also, but it's changed ownership.
Yes. Thank you. I wonder what the New Year will bring? We had the most beautiful Christmas Vigil Mass this morning. They are doing a real honest to goodness Mid Night Mass tonight at Midnight. I would have loved to go, I have not been to a real midnight mass since I was a child.
Here is a really lovely family movie to watch at Christmas. It's on Amazon. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Searching_for_Bobby_Fischer
A blessed and holy Christmas to all MOG forum members. Peace and good health to you and your families.
My poor pastor recently came off quarantine for being exposed to covid-19; I was scheduled to assist him at the Christmas Eve Holy Mass, but it just was cancelled because he has been put quarantine once more! Now where are these wonderful parishioners going to go for Holy Mass? Lord have Mercy!
We are never closer to Christ than when we hang upon a Cross. The Parishioners have nowhere to lay their heads this Christmas. What could be closer to the Holy Family? Let them approach the baby Jesus in the Holy Caves of their hearts. As least you can do the readings and give the Eucharist Terry?
I offered to do a Communion Service, but I believe our church secretary had already begun calling up families to cancel.
