Gentle readers, I am still on Sabbatical However I will be changing the format for a while. There are so many areas to address that we are going to point out our thinking about the sheep being led to the market. I have no ax to grind but I am fed up with those who try to take advantage of you. So you may  not like what we are going to present but I guarantee you that it will raise your awareness and you blood pressure as we expose these vultures for who they are.- see below

 I will be finishing the Book of Genesis soon, have you read my work yet? Teaching through the entire Bible on our wee study site http://scripturestudies.spruz.com  ("Where scholarship and study meet". A study and social network an outreach of Scripture Institute)   on the Christianity 101 Group I would like to invite you to join with us for this perhaps last of my teaching through the Bible Under the heading "Doc's notes."

 For the continuing study of "What your father didn't know and your mother wouldn't tell you" please see our study site called Scriptural studies (see below) where you can enjoy many other studies as well as mine. I will continue to write on both but here you deserve the benefit  of Irish insights on a variety topics
