An Irish personal evangelistic site. I'm not representing a particular church, but it's broadly evangelical in tone. My aim is to cover topics I've encountered in discussions I've had over the years, mainly here in Ireland..
I think of good old Stevie Wonder, and his 1973 song, Superstition. As he sang – Superstition ain’t the way. What did he mean by things you don’t understand? Perhaps he means that you shouldn’t just follow traditions without looking into their background. I’ve met few people who were superstitious or approved of those who … Continue reading Not At All
Physically, perhaps I look like a monkey. I had a beard at various stages. When I was a teacher, some of the kids called me a wolfman 😀. However, I generally like to think in terms of how Jesus views us. And we are His sheep, if we believe in Him. Being sheepish is sometimes … Continue reading A Sheep
Hi Paul, Happy 100th birthday. Well, you didn’t expect that to happen did you? Right now, I could say that I might have another 30 years left on earth, but who knows what I’ll need to face in those 30 years. You’re unlikely to live much longer on this earth, but you’re gonna live forever … Continue reading Everybody Wants to Go to Heaven, But Nobody Wants to Die
The secular side of me would probably want to go to a computer store. I don’t think in terms of cities for shopping sprees. Perhaps that applies more to fashion. Still, back in the 1990s, you didn’t see much in terms of computer stores in the Republic of Ireland. I used to like visiting Belfast … Continue reading Computer Stores and Christian Bookshops
No, my middle name isn’t Unintended Consequences 😀. I’m just a little uncomfortable with giving too much information about myself for fear of unintended consequences. At the same time, if I’m reading blog posts, it’s nice to be aware that it’s a real person, and a name helps that. I had a blog about 20 … Continue reading Unintended Consequences
Well, I think that I’m learning all day every day. But the last formal learning was a Udemy course – The AI Engineer Course 2026: Complete AI Engineer Bootcamp. Udemy has astonishing sales every couple of weeks where you get courses for as little as 10 euro or so. I can’t say that I’ve become … Continue reading AI Engineering
I don’t mind being asked about anything 😀. The only thing that pops to mind are questions that might require a lot of thought and research, such as what’s my favourite song. This has varied so much over the years. Maybe the most stable ones were Strawberry Fields Forever by the Beatles and Pressing On … Continue reading What’s Your Favourite Song?
It’s difficult to answer this one. I failed my driving test on the first occasion. Then, I passed when I did it again. Perhaps it made me a better driver, but I don’t know. And I would have failed to get jobs that I applied for, and I’d get another job instead. But I don’t … Continue reading God, Have Mercy on Me, a Sinner
Let me think. I could write “It was the best of times, it was the “blurst” of times”. But maybe Charles Dickens would sue me – or the monkeys from the Simpsons. I’d probably want to write about my physical background and my spiritual background. So, I’d write about my Cork background and maybe even … Continue reading I Was Born Twice
I assume that this question relates to things that I’d be sorry to lose rather than something that would literally cause your death, such as losing access to essential medication. So, I choose the Bible, something that allows me to access the Web, and a musical instrument. I don’t absolutely need these. I have enough … Continue reading Bible, Web, Musical Instrument
