__________________ The Jews quarreled among themselves, saying, "How can this man give us (his) flesh to eat?"
Jesus said to them, "Amen, amen, I say to you, unless you eat the flesh of the Son of Man and drink his blood, you do not have life within you....For my flesh is true food, and my blood is true drink..."
As a result of this, many (of) his disciples returned to their former way of life and no longer accompanied him...
John, Ch. 6
300 posts exactly at the beginning of the New Year!
__________________ God:Bender, being God isn't easy. If you do too much, people get dependent on you. And if you do nothing, they lose hope. You have to use a light touch, like a safecracker or a pickpocket. Bender:Or a guy who burns down a bar for the insurance money. God:Yes, if he makes it look like an electrical thing. When you do things right, people won't be sure you've done anything at all.

And a happy, healthy New Year to you as well, and many more!!

None of the gods love wisdom or desire to become wise, for they are wise already -- nor if someone else is wise, do they love wisdom. Neither do the ignorant love wisdom or desire to become wise; for this is the grievous thing about ignorance, that those who are neither good nor beautiful nor sensible think they are good enough, and do not desire that which they do not think they are lacking.

Edinburgh's Hogmanay is supposed to be one of the biggest New Year celebrations in the world...
This year the fireworks got wet so the party was called off at 11pm - what an anticlimax!
Sounds interesting and fun! One of my goals is to get to Scotland. I have been to England (London & Guildford) several times but unfortunately never had time to make it up North to your country. I must tell you though the pictures of it are breath- taking!! Maybe next year they will keep the fireworks dry! Stay happy and healthy in 2004
