    Jesus can change people?

    It doesn't matter whether he could have given a different law. The law is what we have.

    Attendance at local church

    Thanks - I'll read those and the original article later on. Good to get links from both sides - I don't dispute the downsides of wearing higher grade masks having experienced some of them myself, but always good to see it from all angles.

    Things you realize as you get older

    I'm not as young as I used to be.

    The cheap version

    Anything where the drop in quality is unacceptable. On a regular basis that includes coffee. The place I normally get my coffee charges me $16 for a 2lb bag of roasted beans. A local store charges $5 for a 2lb bag of ground coffee. I tried it, I'd rather pay the extra.

    So... What are YOU doing? - Part 8

    I still walk around town if it's cold. I think some of the people in my area think I'm crazy, especially when I'm out walking after dark when it's below freezing. But running is a different proposition - I generate so much more body heat and maintaining a suitable body temperature becomes...

    Jesus can change people?

    God handed down the laws. Why God required that is above my pay grade.

    Good or bad,

    This idea that going out is "endangering people". Because there's no risk to anyone, driver included, in taking the car anywhere. It's like people have lost the distinction between "safe" and "risk free". We've all taken miniscule risks every single day of our lives but now the tiniest risk has...

    So... What are YOU doing? - Part 8

    Since I got active I don't like winter as much. I want to be able to stretch my legs and work, but it's hard when there's ice on the roads and it's below freezing. There are treadmills and the like but they get really tedious after a while.

    Attendance at local church

    Would it work for you to attend wearing a high grade mask? A vented N95 would give you a lot of protection, as long as you'd fitted it well, and the vent would make it easier for you to breathe.

    Good or bad,

    Many people, on both sides, simply parrot what their preferred media outlet says and show little evidence of thinking for themselves. Also that many people are remarkably inconsistent.

    When doves cry

    Earplugs. I use them to block out noise when I'm sleeping and when I'm operating power tools for any length of time. Some time I should probably get a pair of proper ear defenders for use with my power saws but for now I seldom use them for long enough to be overly concerned. I've seen a style...

    Last Dental Visit

    I think it was in 2006 to repair a broken tooth. It was the second time that tooth broke. When it broke for the third time I figured the work the dentist had done made it more likely to break again so let it be. There's not much left of that tooth now.

    Jesus can change people?

    The Law required a sacrifice to atone for sin. If you look through the list of sacrifices in Leviticus the requirement was typically for a lamb without blemish. If someone didn't live that perfect life they would be blemished, and therefore not suitable as a sacrifice.

    So... What are YOU doing? - Part 8

    After church my wife helped her friend with an activity for the kids, and I went home and took an unexpected nap. Once I'd properly woken up I had a chat with a friend abroad who I haven't spoken to for a while, then went for a walk. It was getting dark so I wore some bright colors and took a...

    Is hate speech free speech?

    Depending on how you define "hate speech" I think the answer would vary. If someone is directly calling for violence against a specific person or group I'd be inclined to tread more carefully than when dealing with much of what is called "hate speech" these days. These days it sometimes seems...

    So... What are YOU doing? - Part 8

    We went out for a walk today. It was serously cold. By the time we got home I had ice in my beard.

    So... What are YOU doing? - Part 8

    A bit of demolition today. I pried the baseboards off in our bedroom closet and pulled the bottom few inches of the lath and plaster wall off. Being able to get at the space behind the wall meant I could trace a couple of cables that have been confusing me for a while. I found the joists ran...

    A gift card with unlimited money on it

    Probably the hardware store. I need a lot of stuff for my house project, and when that's done I can get stuff to build other things, and if I've got unlimited money I can make a steady income from reselling stuff like pipe and cable.
