About Me

Life reminds me of Rachmaninoff's observation that every piece of Music required what he called "the moment of Truth". If it works, you "get it". QUESTION: What kind of person do you like the most? ANSWER: "It really doesn't matter, as long as your sincere". WONDERFUL FAITH IN ALL, in any form: The Monk in the calm of the cloister. The Pilgrims devotion circling the Ka'bba. The Torah's table. The scrolls of the Holy Qur'an. THE CREED OF ALL IS LOVE. This is my Faith & Belief in ALL SPIRITUAL WONDER. anyways, we all know 1 thing for sure: Knowledge brings confusion. ANOTHER QUESTION: What do the veils of hope & fear do for the vision of GOD as 'the hope of Paradise & fear of Hell'? ANSWER: tell me if you know.

"personne, en Europe au mois, n'ose plus soutenir la creation independante et de toutes pieces, des especes," It is manifest that at least a large # of Naturalists must admit that species are the modified descendants of other species.
