    Hey MrClean I guess your not of Irish decent then? :wink:
    I also guess that you don't believe Noah built his boat? :smile:
    and I also guess you will soon run out of friends :D (only joking )

    Thought for today
    How many lives shall I touch today?
    How many neighbours will pass my way?
    I can bless so many and help so much
    If I meet each one with a Christ-like touch

    Most of my many Irish friends would agree with me on this two quotes. :smile: I have met people from many countries in my travels and I can saw without a single doubt, as a group, no people in the world are better, more trustworthy, and decent lot than the Irish.

    ‎"The study of theology, as it stands in Christian churches, is the study of nothing; it is founded on nothing; it rests on nothing; it proceeds by no authorities; it has no data; it can demonstrate nothing and admits of no conclusion."-- Thomas Paine

    ‎"Man is a Religious Animal. He is the only Religious Animal. He is the only animal that has the True Religion - several of them. He is the only animal that loves his neighbour as himself and cuts his throat if his theology isn't straight. He has made a graveyard of the globe in trying his honest best to smooth his brother's path to happiness and heaven." - Mark Twain
