Richard, go for it!! That is what I like, someone who has reached the wisdom of their years (and I ain't that far behind - years that is,!!) and is still searching and will not give up.

And may I thank each and everyone one of you who have contributed to this discussion - it has been most enlightening, entertaining, thought provoking and educational (wow how many adjectives will fit on a pin head?). Thanks Brian for starting the topic - oh heck, this does sound a bit patronizing when I read it back, but what else can I say?

And to show that as we get older we get braver here is an absolutely true story - it was emailed to me by a most reliable source:

at Easter Sunday mass in a small town and the priest after starting his homily OK launched into an anti-abortion tirade . An older Irish sounding woman up the back, got up and shouted "It's Easter Sunday Father, Christ is risen, Alleluia" and walked out ! Several other women and men followed her and my aunt and others applauded. Don't know who the bloke was, but the laity are definitely revolting.

I suspect the hierarchy are too thinking that we the Laity are revolting!
