FINDING TRUTH WHEREVER IT MAY BE FOUND – “We do not really want a religion that is right where we are right. What we want is a religion that is right where we are wrong….They say they want a religion to be social, when they would be social without any religion. They say they want a religion to be practical, when they would be practical without any religion. They say they want a religion acceptable to science, when they would accept the science even if they did not accept the religion. They say they want a religion like this because they are like this already. They say they want it, when they mean that they could do without it.” - ChestertonQUOTE II – “[They] believe in God, but only because God agrees with them.” Garison Keeler

:-) Oh my, thank you for tagging me. I think I must like ALL the parables, but I'll narrow them down to 5 later this eve, and will try to tag 5 who haven't already done it. (I've still got some physical energy today and am jumping on that with both feet -- literally: tomorrow is rubbish and recycling removal day, lol.)
I hope I can find 5 to tag who haven't already done this....
any volunteers?
Oops, I meant to erase that bottom part, because it's not just an invitation-- it's also sheer laziness on my part. *sigh I disgust myself.
:-p
Great graphics, by the way, Fr. V. I see that snow can be fun. It can be beautiful. (Your snow, tho' -- not mine, lol.)
What's a parable?
Rob. A pair of bowls?
Sorry it's been a long day =)

Hey, playing dumb always works with the wife! I had to give it a try.
Fr V
what is second picture - the dark brown in / against the white snow?
Uncle Jim - It is a creek cutting its way through the snow - you can't quite tell from the picture but the water and creek bed are quite orange there. Just a cool contrast to the stark white.
Aw, now I'm sure of it--God likes Ohio better.
Ok, I finally did it.
(Why haven't any of us come up with a 5-favorite chocolates meme? Just because it's Lent?)
'A pair of bowls'.. whew.. now THAT was BAD. Funny, but bad.
