Aunty! I've thought about you every so often. Thank you. I hope you are well.
Oh my gosh. I did not know until now. You are all so kind! Thank you from the bottom of my heart. I do miss you all.

Hi Manichean. I'm even tardier than you. I'm just seeing this now. Yes, I agree, Christ experiences everything that a man would, but the part I took issue with in your comment is He learning a...
Manachean, you’re wrong about Jesus needing to learn anything. He is both God and man simultaneously, not one at one time and the other at other times. There are several presuppositions you have to...
The writing is very good, but I can't say I felt engaged with the characters. There wasn't any character development, or not enough to make me care beyond the initial emotion. Hope that helps.
I voted as well. Thanks for directing me Scher. All three were good reads. I wish I had the time to stop here more often.
I didn't say that was evidence for believing in God's existence. My point was that it was not proof that God didn't exist. That's the claim: because suffering is in the world God is ether malicious...
Popeye never made it past Kindergarten. (Nice to see you Pen!)
What does Popeye eat when there is a spinach shortage?
Yep. I couldn't have said it better myself. ;)
I'm not sure I quite understand your point Melanie in the original post. Suffering is part of how we form compassion, and through compassion, love and self sacrifice. Suffering is how God makes us...
Oh, I'm so saddened to hear. He was a good young man, and bright, and obviously persevered with his difficulties, and I was really fond of him. Eternal rest grant unto him, O Lord.
Hehe, join the club. ;)
Oh my gosh, that sounds horrible. I've never heard of it but I hope it doesn't effect your vision as time goes on. Can laser surgery help? They do amazing things...

Do I count as a veteran? ;)
Yeah, I bet I was close a few times...lol. And I gained the same ten pounds.
Sorry to hear about the loss of your parent. I also lost a parent during my...
Hmm, should be interesting. Of course by then Putin might claim all of Eastern Europe again. :p Thanks.
They played well. We keep improving every four years. Maybe next one. Where is the next one being held?
Oh this contest was always fun and I can see everyone is having a ball. Too bad I missed it. For what it's worth, with it down to the Final Eight, from here I predict Columbia to win it, Columbia...
Barbara!! I wondered often what happened to you. I hope you're well. I only stop by Lit Net now and then, but I would like to hear what happened. If you want to keep it private just send me a PM....
Oh darn. I must have missed the deadline and the poll closed. I thought we had until the end of the day of the 28th. I guess that's Greenwich time? I guess it best I not say how I would have...
Congratulations DocHeart. I enjoyed all the stories and it was tough to choose.
Thank you Jo, Juniper, and Calidore. :)

Islandclimber - You're back! I haven't seen you in ages.
Kiki - Nice to speak to you. It's been a while as well.
Paul - Yes, thank you. ...
