Hymns: Let all the World in Every Corner Sing

I’ve been exploring some of the very modern worship songs as an old guy πŸ˜€.

Today it’s the turn of the old … Continue reading Hymns: Let all the World in Every Corner Sing

Me? Write a Guide? 😱

I ‘d need to use AI to write a guide to setting healthy boundaries in relationships. I’m a 20th century person. I’m a bit out of my depth in the 21st century. I cope with it all by instinct.

Is There Life On Mars?

A Meme? 🧐

Finally, a question that I can’t answer πŸ˜€. I hardly know what a meme is. I first heard the term at a lecture back in 2007, which was held in Maynooth. Theologian, Alister McGrath, mentioned the term in a talk that he gave about Richard Dawkins’ The God Delusion. I can’t remember what he said. … Continue reading A Meme? 🧐

Not Visiting Kerry

Well, I would think that most people do plenty of research. However, whenever I meet visitors in Limerick, I always urge them to head to the coastal areas rather than hang out in cities like Limerick. Any coastal area would probably do. And Kerry is my personal favourite. My first visit to Killarney, one of … Continue reading Not Visiting Kerry
