    So start a thread then.

    The Trinity - What on Earth is it?

    It meant nothing. It was one of those things that (even then) the less observably bright adults mentioned to children. Stuff such as Father Christmas and the tooth fairy.

    The Trinity - What on Earth is it?

    Yes, but only as a child. Adulthood made me think for myself and that led to this conversation.

    The Trinity - What on Earth is it?

    Wow, glad I am not a Christian. So far the outlook is not very good. All those believers for all these centuries, is this the best that you can come up with?

    The Trinity - What on Earth is it?

    Which has always involved sperm or adoption, Stop dodging the question, what does "son of God" mean?

    The Trinity - What on Earth is it?

    What does that mean? Was sperm involved or an adoption procedure? I ask again what does son of God mean.

    Commercialization of Paganism

    Yes, I agree. I am reminded of a story told to me by a young colleague from Nepal. He told me that his mother spent all of her spare time at the local Buddhist temple. People often approached her seeking advice or an opinion. The fact was that she knew virtually nothing of Buddhism, she just...

    The Trinity - What on Earth is it?

    I have mentioned in various posts why I parted from Christianity. However, one thing just continues to bug me -the Trinity. It is to me the weirdest thing imaginable, but it is accepted by millions, most of whom I believe are as puzzled as me if they were honest. It is a big subject so let us...

    What is Your Disbelief?

    Praying for Armageddon?

    Worried, this is scary stuff. @David1967 thank you for posting this. As Saint Frankenstein pointed out, Al Jazeera do make very good documentaries.

    Mine is Pan. I have been drawn to such images for as long as I can remember. He is associated with wild places, which I love, so that may have something to do with it.

    What Holidays Do You Look Forward To?

    You touch upon something special to me here. This is a great example of how food can be beautiful and meaningful. In scenarios such as you describe here, food can be a large part of the story of not only where we are but who we are and from where we came.

    Bad News

    Three years on, an update. I have just received info that the Findhorn Foundation is to sell its premises at Cluny Hill (pictured below). I knew this would happen, there was no viable alternative but it still feels like a kick in the teeth. Since the fire and lockdown, the Foundation went into...
