Happy Easter Everybody
Good Morning All,
Happy Easter to all the Mgo-faithful out there. We will all probably remember this Easter for the unique conditions and world circumstances that exist, but hopefully beyond all of that you have a fine Easter in your own fashion. You/we might miss out on gathering with other family or friends, but with any luck that will make the next time you do get to see them that much more sweet.
Be healthy, enjoy the day, and blessings to all of you and your families.
Go Blue!

Happy Easter!
always feels like the real beginning of the year to me. As I reflect spiritually, I just want to be a better person this year.
Ham dinner about to be served by me...to me.
Surprisingly, I still have an appetite after consuming more Easter candy than I should have.
Happy Easter, all!???
this one easter, but never again alone.
Yes, Happy Easter to everyone here. Thanks for the post, XM!
Happy Easter. We had a zoom meeting for dinner with the in laws, and that was fun. Wish we all could have been together, but making the best of things. Keep telling my boys they are living through history.
Thanks XM! I'm sad to say I lack religious faith. I do my best to live an honorable life and I'm happiest when I'm doing for family and friends. I'm hoping that if there are pearly gates ahead, that will be enough.
Anyway, Thanksgiving is my favorite day of the year, but I also love Easter. Stepping back to enjoy the Springtime rebirth just feels good.
Be well everyone.
You are quite welcome. Remember, you aren't just a random collection of space dust, you were fearfully and wonderfully made. You might take some to get to know your creator. Regardless, have a great day.
Thank you my friend.
I've always been at the periphery of Christianity. My grandmother on dad's side was a deeply faithful Presbyterian and both my folks were believers even if we weren't church goers growing up. When I was informed of my divorce I was truly lost.
Although I've spent weeks at a time alone on bike tours or backpacking without ever being lonely, I was lonely then. Town I didn't care for. Job I didn't care for. Kids by phone and weekends and stupid restaurant dinners. There was a cool Presbyterian church where I was living. Old. Middle class flock at best. Nice stained glass. Fine sense of community. Great young gal running the show. I went every Sunday for a couple years. I helped with decorating for Christmas. Brought the kids. I liked everything about it, but it didn't influence my belief in any real way. Strange I guess.
Anyway. Cheers!
i would so love to have a more detailed discussion about this, but of course this isn't the forum for that.
you're a smart guy, so i'll pose a question that hopefully will be of interest to you: explain how, in a naturalistic, random world any type of future event, even something as simple as bouncing a ball or squeezing toothpaste out of a tube, can be expected to be like the past?
