Irony alert…

You’d better watch out… Do these idiots even recognise the mere possibility that not everybody shares an unshakable faith in their fairy-tales? Only a member of a religious group, having never entertained the idea of an original-thought, could feel (without a trace of irony), that… it was his duty to distinguish the reality of Jesus [...]

Friday’s music

Great song from a great band.  Enjoy the lyrics…  

Friday Music

I always loved this music, perhaps it takes me back to my time on the very-same mountain in Scotland.  It’s by Sigur Ros
