Blame the weather!
I’m so sorry I haven’t been around all week – blame the weather! It’s been so lovely, the outdoors has beckoned and I have succumbed. Golf, walks, garden – all sing to me like the Sirens, calling me to come out and play. So I have.
I also discovered an interesting atheist website, and couldn’t resist responding to their comments on Christianity. I rather enjoy religious discussions with atheists, but have problems with the fundamentalist type of atheist – those who think all Christians believe that the Bible must be taken literally and that God is an old man up in the sky. How easy it is to tear that sort of belief apart! But since many Christians don’t believe that, such atheists are tilting at windmills. I just have this conviction that if you’re going to tear anything apart, you need to know something about your subject. Richard Dawkins, are you listening?
I picked up a quiz from the golf club yesterday and am stuck on one final question. So perhaps you can help. The clue is, “Did this man teach some insects to float?” and the answer has to begin with a Y. Ed and I have racked our meagre brains and come up with nothing. I’d like it to be Muhammad Ali (float like a butterfly…) but his name doesn’t begin with a Y.
Any ideas?
