JW>  No...probably Thiland :-)  

MC>  I didn't realize they were without cups in Thiland.

-> Not cups, God  

You mean their cups don't runneth over?

Being two different people at two different times and places with two
different points of view, I don't think we have a choice.


MC> Evidently their view is really an estimation of their self.

JW> 'estimation of self'?

I think if we were capable of getting A's we wouldn't be here.
Life is a 'B' Movie.



MC>  Happy campers they're not.
 
JW> Somehow Christian want badly to believe that atheists 
JW> can not be happy campers. ...

I don't want that. It was just an observation. Excpetions, far and few 
as they may be, are noted.


MC>  You can't be very happy if you believe life will end 
MC>  when the body expires.

JW>  Sure you can! It brings an enhancment to the enkpyment 
JW>  of the day, the end of being 'anxious for the morrow'...

I look forward to the morrow's of eternity.


JW> The body expires (I can vouch for the fact that it wears out :-)

Too bad there's no Jiffy-Lub' for us humans.


JW>   Whether consciousness (about which we know so little --and 
JW>   I've been studying it for thirty years...) expires as well is 
JW>   antithetical to my chrrch's official hope :-)

I better confer with a higher authority before I comment on that..


MC>> Nothing to look forward to but another day of paying taxes...

JW> Tut tut Rather:
    Another day of blessed existance conscious of contributing 
    if only be way of paying taxes to society, harming none, enjoying all.

    I look forward to the tomorrow thst will be the only existant
reality,,.
    Tomorrow! Fine, abundant food. The pleasure of company, both human and
    feline, surrounded by books, Google, Anticipation of many things, 
    including your response to my heresies...
    I think we are not as far apart as I think you are going to think.:-)

Allelujah
