Does God Speak?

This is a houghtful bit of original thinking in religion. Yes, you are right, there is no suitable verb.for what you want to say. We need to reflect on this carefully.

Irish Halloween ( Samhain ) traditions

Derdriu
I have never had a bad meal in Ireland. The traditional food had to wholesome and use what was available.

Eyam, Derbyshire -Plague Village

I have not heard of any Eyam plague descendants being immune to AIDS . Covid is an air bourne virus of course and the Plague is a tic bourne bacteria as far as I am aware

Henceforth is still sued in England in a legal setting and means from now to the future or from now on....

donkey stones were used in the North of England as a special stone used in cleaning the front steps . I do not know anyone who uses one nowadays.

Irish Christmas traditions and Christmas foods

On a personal level Derdriu, I do not actually weigh and measure things when i cook. Having said that , I can look at a quantity and say ..yes that is about 8 ounces and if my boys weigh the item , it generally is about the amount i need. i have been baking for nearly 50 years ! So just use your eys and your hand and it will turn out fine

The third subheading, The shop items, intrigues me with its reference to "donkey stones."

What might donkey stones look like?
What about them might have resulted in their name?
Might they still be used today?

Skipton Castle , Yorkshire

The name Desormais intrigues me.

Is it known what "henceforth" references?

It makes me mull a personnel or policy or socio-politico-economic change, but of and regarding what and whom.

Messages of Puss in Boots

My favorite part of Puss in Boots happens early on.

It involves the third son knowing that he may overcome what presents itself initially, superficially as perhaps poverty-promising property: a mouse-, rat-chasing cat since who pays well for that?

It results when the cat speaks.

It suggests to me Romeo in Act 2, Scene 2 of Romeo and Juliet, "She speaks. O, speak again, bright angel"!

Thank you for the comment below in answer to my previous, same-day observations and question.

It's good news to learn of your improvement. May your health and strength improve as well.

(Be Thou the vision of Frank and his wife and his family and of Veronica and her husband and their family! Every day I play that, my favoritest hymn, with special dedication to all you ;-d))

Does God Speak?

Thank you for your comment below on March 2, 2018, in answer to my previous, same-day observations and question.

Elsewhere, you describe liminal places as those with religious-, spiritual-friendly, thin-veiled air.

No one from the Holy Trinity did any speaking there, at my favoritest Marian site.

But I fail to find one verb that gives us what that site generated. Elsewhere, we always have the sound, the spoken, the vocal guidance.

Is there one verb that invokes what the Knock miracle involved?

Hans Christian Andersen: his life and his fairy tales

I don't know if that's true. I believe the Brothers Grimm may be even more 'successful'. Anyway, we are talking about more than 100 languages in both cases.

Robert Anning Bell - His Life and His Works

The relief is called Honeysuckle and I believe it is exhibited in montreal, Canada. I don't know who was the model.
