If my old dear was alive she would be at it every day with the hail Mary's
If he lives it will be down to all the prayers and gods love
If he kicks the bucket .....it was God's will to take him into heaven etc etc

Surely if anyone doesn't need other people to have a word with their chosen deity on their behalf it's said deity's representative on earth?
Well Mary can save nobody and unless he has some serious dealings with God in his latter days, then heaven is certainly not on the menu for him.Quote:

Anne Boleyn's family were canny. She refused to sleep with him unless they were married, and that drove him even more wild for her.Quote:

Henry suffered from a receding heir line.Quote:

5. Aim to answer peoples questions about Life the Universe and everything via all means including social media.
Thanks for asking.
* I should point out that I have great respect for the majority of Baptist Churches and despite not being a Baptist myself I have spoken in a number of them over the years.

How do you know a person who was kind and went to church failed to get into Heaven ?Quote:

Have you been present when God has interviewed them ?
It's clearly nonsense
Thanks for the reply.Quote:

I notice CCMB rules are in play here
Take the piss out of Christians, no problem.
other religuns, islam or another, you are an ist of some sort depending on the religun
as a non practicing Christian i couldn't give a friar tuck, it's the CCMB hypocrisy at play again and the usual suspects.
It wouldn't surprise me if the Pope hasn't already snuffed it but the announcement of his death
will be made public at a suitable time to deflect other news. ( e.g. a Trump peace deal for Ukraine) Cynical me?!!!
This fred is in the bank for future posts when the virtuos come calling with the isms. :wave:
What's a non practicing Christian? A Christian who isn't, or one that is such a natural that no training is required?Quote:

A fair question (slightly concealed in the obligatory mocking).Quote:

And any old book that's true is still true, just like any new science paper isn't necessarily true because it's really new!
So yes, the curry nights are 100% free.
I notice no one’s taking the mick out of yoga teachers or antique hat collectors either.Quote:
