A note for the spiritual people.

Again a bit of a diversion, the consultant asked if i minded having a woman working with him carry out the op, which she did. They recorded the op and the earlier exploratory which they couldn’t chop bits out as my warfarin INR was too high.

Which reminded me of a colleague at my last workplace who had this done and asked for a DVD. And got one. A week later i had a request to get the corporate intranet to show safety videos. I set the page up but had no test video

‘Hey john use this’ said the guy. Wise arse. Just as well i looped the video feed to my pc only.

What though the radiance

Which was once so bright

Be now for ever taken from my sight,

Though nothing can bring back the hour

Of splendour in the grass,

Of glory in the flower,

We will grieve not, rather find

Strength in what remains behind;

In the primal sympathy

Which having been must ever be;

In the soothing thoughts that spring

Out of human suffering;

In the faith that looks through death,

In years that bring the philosophic mind.

William Wordsworth

I attended a Xmas event at a local Christian group last weekend . It was an hour long ‘ A Christmas carol’ musical treat based in the novel but introducing the Nativity directly into the narrative .
I fidgeted from start to finish.
When the play ended we were shepherded into a contemporary’ village ‘ in the car park complete with two Roman soldiers guarding the entrance , log fires, donkeys , sheep and arts and crafts .
Very nice too.
The best bit was getting out of the muddy field used as a car park.
I have to ask myself whether these people were spiritual or was this all done more for themselves .
I can’t decide .

Everything is Spiritual, the temporal is but a moment in terms of eternity. Each one of us has a Spiritual core even if we don't recognise it. Many are frightened to even explore the possibility of an existence that remains outside the plausible explanations of scientists, who so often claim to have found the answers only to discover that they only have a small portion of the potential of our learning.

Turn to any page of the historical writings that we describe as Scriptures and see explanations by revelation, of God and Christ, who was born to master death of the Spirit and lead us all to eternal life. We all have that gift regardless of who or what we are. Then the judgement of our Temporal existence holds sway, when our Maker decides what our Eternal future will be based on our belief in Him and our works that prove it.

Meditate, pray or do whatever it takes to feel the eternal side of this earthly existence. Explain it away any way you wish there is only one truth and it is just too simple for many to risk believing that it might be so. Time may be coming when many will find that they trust only one true unchanging Being - our Father in Heaven. The proof will come when the time is right. For now He waits for us to turn to Him and acknowledge His Begotten Son all the while repenting of our many mistakes while in this human state.

Just read the scriptures. All the answers anyone could ever want are there.

True. It's what I can't stand about us. Scheming Macaques without fur.

I like what I know about Christianity and I have no doubt that Jesus (and Mohammad) were good well intended people, but the idea that an all knowing all loving creator exists is just a fantasy created by and written by humans.  
Having posted the above, knowledge proves that Humans are emotional beings first and logical beings second, and the proof that the emotions and logic areas are separate is plentiful. 

You choose your path see 2, its more than that though, its like a hedgehog being told that there is an internet, jet travel, space travel. Its even more than that though, its not understanding the language that its told in, even when you understand the language, the meaning will escape you.
