Two Quotes From NOTHING TO BE FRIGHTENED OF

________________________________________________________________________________________________

Irony does not dry up the grass.
It just burns off the weeds.
•
Perhaps the fact that
God is incomprehensible
is the strongest argument
for His existence.

      Too many to choose from
      but my favorite story
      is THE STOWAWAY from "10 1/2 Chapters"

      I learned more about Noah's Ark
      from this story than the Bible
      could ever have taught me

      "You are forgiven, my son"

      And I am certain JB
      would say the same
