For the record. Someone, from Colorado Springs, using language strikingly, remarkably similar to this guy, has left more — how to call them? — comments linking, rather significantly, to this post (scroll to very end). It might be helpful for this fellow to receive a visit from a friend.
Anyway, just to say, that’s just so boring. Blech. This is the kind of thing — people showing their worst — for which I have no fear, come what may. You’ll simply not get my interest by merely telling me what was vomited up by mankind all over Jesus while He hung on the cross. No, no.
You will get my interest, however, by telling me about the goodness and kindness of Jesus, who loved us while we were yet sinners, so as to transform us, and bring us to life. That’s something in which to rejoice. Come Holy Spirit !
If you want to know what I do fear, it’s my attempting to say something about the Immaculate Conception in Genesis 3,15 at the Marie-Joseph Lagrange Biblical Conference.
Meanwhile, I haven’t anything written. There are non-stop distractions. For instance, I just blew out a tire — quite the explosion really — on a jagged rock on Holy Souls Mountain. What a fright. That took up much of yesterday, and will take up most of the day today. I think the checking account will allow me to buy one tire, perhaps two, depending. In saying that, I’m not soliciting donations. I would never do that!
Meanwhile, say a prayer for the marchers arriving for the march for life in Washington, D.C. When a baby in the womb is considered to be the greatest enemy of the nation, no one is beyond the reach of violence.
Accompany me, Father George David Byers, S.S.L., S.T.D., as I begin life as a Catholic Priest-Hermit by choice. Holy Souls Hermitage is dedicated to the sanctification of my fellow priests, bishops, deacons & seminarians going through the purgatory of this life or the next. Prayer and sacrifice go up, of course, for both Benedict XVI and the next Successor of Saint Peter. 
Father George, you need one of these Rock Crawlers. I found a you tube video to show you just exactly what a rock crawler is. The video was “clean” as far as I watched it, past the second crawler, the blue one. My brother has one of these he uses to go fossil hunting with. His is a 4 passenger and has the body of a jeep.
I just posted the link above and had no idea the video would show up in the post. So sorry
Protect these little ones, Lord! It was said that 1/3 of the angels went into rebellion when the plan was revealed to them that our Lord would be born of a human woman. And, ever since, the womb has been the greatest target of Satan through contraception and abortion, where the most innocent of innocence exists.
Not to worry Denise. I have moderation on anyway!
Holy Bazooka! Those rock climbers are amazing. I can’t decide which is more exciting – the bike racers or the rock climbers. Neither one is for sissies! Wow!
Joisy: The rock climbers look boring to me since, unlike Jenny the Jeep, they are not carrying five times their weight in payload!
Also, the more I look at the bikers, the more I think I could so very easily have done that. If that’s what you do all the time: easy peasy. But really really really fun!
I’ll bet you could, Father, back in the days. It looks ike it would be great fun. Not that I could do it, even in the day, but it looks like a blast. It’s the kind of fthing you tell you mom about years later when she can’t get mad at you.
Perhaps maybe Father prefers the more traditional approach that has been with man ever since his beginning?
God Bless.
[[ Sorry to change out the video on you, c.h., but I didn't want to advertise that particular film because of what I hear is the ending not of that clip, but of that film. I know people rave on about it, blah, blah, blah, but... no. To put a religious tone to all this, which is what I'm sure you're after, I would just say that we don't climb up on the Rock of our Salvation, or even on our own decide to agree with Peter, the Rock, but are rather fitted into place as living stones with Christ Jesus as our cornerstone, with Peter as the Rock on which the Church is founded, and all this by grace! Also, just to say, the clip you had... yes... well... that's the reason why penances should be DO-ABLE!!! Hah. -- Father George ]]
