I don't make a lot of personal posts so please bear with me. #Rufus hasn't been doing well for the past week or so. I mean, he's 13 (at least), and has slowed down due to age, but the past week or two he's been acting like every movement is a Herculean effort. A few times in the past couple of weeks his rear legs have given out on him completely to where I've had to pick him up and carry him which is, in itself, telling. Rufus has always hated being carried and struggled continuously when I did so. Yesterday while petting him I noticed two golf-ball sized things up under his chin. Now, they may be benign lipomas as Rufus is covered with them (one one each thigh, one on each shoulder, one on his chest and a few smaller bumps here and there) or they may be indicative of something else. I'm no vet and aside from emergency medic battlefield training I have no medical experience whatsoever, but these new things seem to be where your or mine lymph nodes are located....

It is up to the reader to decide which story to believe. Stories like Aslan's are likely to cause persons who would potentially read the biblical narrative with an open mind to shun it without even looking at it for themselves; literally judging a book by its cover... An act most parents dissuade their children from doing to books as well as people.
Anyway, this is all moot as we are very unlikely to change each other's minds. Let us agree that we are pleased to live in a country which grants us freedom of and from "religion."
BTW, Jesus spoke & taught against religion for religion's sake calling it empty, vain, and detestable.
