Not something we have come across.

Im surprised its on TV regularly. Quite enjoyable on its own terms. It is primarily a childrens film, but has enough appeal for this adult at least.
Before we work on Artificial Intelligence shouldn't we address the problem of natural stupidity.

Which channel? We watch very little TV, mostly documentaries and a bit of detective fiction. I watch Casualty and Holby City, but they aren't as good as they used to be. Modern comedies don't do it for us at all.

Littleroses…. a Nanny McPhee film is often on one of the channels over the Christmas period.

Keep an eye open.... kind of film I think you may like - maybe (?).

I looked it up and it is definitely not the sort of thing we would wish to watch. We watch very little at Christmas, having better things to do.

I’m so pleased you have subverted this thread into a discussion of your TV watching habits.

I’ve seen the first one and it’s quite good.

It’s available on Amazon Prime if you want to see it, but I wouldn’t say it’s so good that you should sign up to Amazon Prime if you don’t already have it.

Ooops! Apologies, madam ;)

Apologies to Vlad/Phyl as well - don't fret, I'll have this thread back on track in a tick, just have to find something..

….. and we can't have Jeremy happy that your thread has gone off topic, now can we...

Kind-of back on track but this view is more of a sage's view than a Christian's view, but I always found it interesting:

This maybe better suited on 'God of the Omnis'.... but anyway..

Thank you, Robbie, good to see you too. :)

Yes, it's certainly a different take on the omni God.

To be fair to Jeremy he has put in a sterling effort to respond to the threads ive placed recently.
Good to hear from you again Sweet Pea.

Sorry but I got as far as "endless sea of vibrational energies" and then "non-physical holographic information system of light". This is some sort of parody, yes?

Bonkers.

The Permian extinction happened. Life barely continued to exist at all. It may be that humanity's present actions will cause the extinction of all life on earth. It is a strong possibility, even probability, but it has yet to happen. Therefore, as yet the Permian extinction remains the greatest catastrophe for living things to occur on earth, and something that remains difficult for any theologian to give a convincing explanation for, as far as I'm concerned. If you think that stating something as bleeding obvious as this is bonkers, then your thinking is facile in the extreme.

I've never seen 'Nanny McPhee' but I know about it and like Emma Thompson in other things so would probably like her in that.
