Earthly Palaces
Doggerel Dave said:
Thumbs up for the sonnet, Gary.
Without a religious bone in my body, I really have great regard for, especially, cathedrals. And despite the earthly wealth and power which created them, I can sit inside their vastness (if quiet, not too touristy) and reach a state of quiet contemplation not often achieved elsewhere.
A contradiction? Probably.....

Agreed - no thought is actually free or totally new, it always comes from somewhere......
Nice one, Gary.

Does the No.7 Bus go to \'Ye Worlds of Outer Space\'? How much is the fare?! lol. Can we take a day trip there and back?
Ain\'t much intelligent life on Earth sometimes. lol.

So where are you with that, Gary?
\'Absence of evidence is not evidence of absence\'.
Does Christ\'s grace stretch to infinity in all directions?
Who are these flat earthers anyway? 🙂

Good write Gary.

If being flippant I might say \'Some places may say \'Oh, we would like to consider Formal Confession, but we\'ve not got the cash to build the confessional Boxes\'. Doh!

Window Washing
orchidee said:
You seeing clearly out that window now?!
I know what you mean, as windows get smudgy. May as well wait until Spring-cleaning days?!
Erm, I can\'t say I\'ve been to Confession. Hellfire and damnation to me then? Argh! Erm, maybe not. lol.

Where’s that fine man now?
orchidee said:
Doh! So that\'s \'justice\' maybe. Setting up a \'sex pact\' then the guy breaks a leg, and she has to nurse him.

Tranquility
Doggerel Dave said:
Thanks Gary. \'Tranquility\' is the very word I used, together with a visualisation not a million miles from the one you supplied here, when I did my own version of meditation. Don\'t seem to practice much now, but my life was much more strife torn then....

More chance of being run over by a bus than winning the lottery, prayer or no prayer?!
Dang it, I wish I\'d seen that No.7 bus coming! heehee.

I felt led to write a hymn-poem on not \'praying it all away\' if we don\'t like what we\'re attempting to pray away.
I still pray certain things will or will not happen though. Erm, apart from some obvious things. Praying to win the Lottery? Hmm, some do! lol.

Such a vivid picture you paint, Gary.
Evokes a similar feeling to a gallery Old Master.
You should know that \"past sins, rehashed, replayed; condemnable\" happen as memories to me sometimes now.
It is relief that I know I won\'t have the journey you describe so richly. Thanks for the experience though..

I expect you know that in the Protestant and some other views there is no purgatory. By the time of our final judgement, it\'s too late for purgatory or to do penance.
