"Well," as Leo Gorcey (in character) might say, "look whoose got his-self a new goil friend!"
But, of course, that's not all. For you see, when you are a rich, big executive type, you are in a position to impress the ladies like no others.

Devils and (real life as opposed to movie) organized crime, like diseases, flourish in a dirty environment, and it is a candid sign of their presence that you see such a plethora of worse than crassness and vulgarity so often in the media and on the internet. Yesterday, I did a search on YouTube for anything on 18th century puppet shows (having learned of the great popularity of them in that era from reading some Spectator papers of Joseph Addison.) Among the results I came up with was all sorts of nastiness that had nothing remotely to do with what I was looking for. Disgusted, I went then to see if there wasn't some feature on YouTube that would filter out all that was most gross, sordid, and depraved. Fortunately, there is such a feature, at the very bottom of a YouTube page marked "Safety" and switch on or off; and which you rest assured I readily availed myself of.
Meantime, we are seeing what in recent years has become the annual attack on Thanksgiving in the way of ads for "Black Friday" deals. Unless you are or anything just short of utter slime, I recommend you boycott those businesses that go that route and use that approach.
If there is anything wrong to the doctrine of Mary, it could only be because either there is too much or too little is made of her. Consequently, the true doctrine must be one that makes neither too much nor too little of her. We can only pray then that God guide us in this way.
Whenever he looks in the mirror, he sees a torturer, gang rapist, and serial murderer. But at least (in society's eyes) he's respectable.
Doctor, strangely, enough, are a lot like actors in that, although they may be financially very wealthy, they usually have much less actual independence and say in what goes on than we customarily infer or attribute to them.

1. They who have been taught to believe In One God the Father Almighty, ought also to believe in His Only-begotten Son. For he that denies the Son, the same has not the Father. [1 John 2:23] I am the Door, says Jesus; no one comes unto the Father but through Me. For if you deny the Door, the knowledge concerning the Father is shut off from you. No man knows the father, save the Son, and he to whomsoever the Son shall reveal Him. [Matthew 11:27] For if you deny Him who reveals, you remain in ignorance. There is a sentence in the Gospels, saying, He that believes not on the Son, shall not see life; but the wrath of God abides on him. [John 3:36] For the Father has indignation when the Only-begotten Son is set at nought. For it is grievous to a king that merely his soldier should be dishonoured; and when one of his nobler officers or friends is dishonoured, then his anger is greatly increased: but if any should do despite to the king's only-begotten son himself, who shall appease the father's indignation on behalf of his only-begotten son?
5. But the Saviour comes in various forms to each man for his profit. For to those who have need of gladness He becomes a Vine; and to those who want to enter in He stands as a Door; and to those who need to offer up their prayers He stands a mediating High Priest. Again, to those who have sins He becomes a Sheep, that He may be sacrificed for them. He is made all things to all men [1 Corinthians 9:22], remaining in His own nature what He is. For so remaining, and holding the dignity of His Sonship in reality unchangeable, He adapts Himself to our infirmities, just as some excellent physician or compassionate teacher; though He is Very Lord, and received not the Lordship by advancement, but has the dignity of His Lordship from nature, and is not called Lord improperly , as we are, but is so in verity, since by the Father's bidding He is Lord of His own works. For our lordship is over men of equal rights and like passions, nay often over our elders, and often a young master rules over aged servants. But in the case of our Lord Jesus Christ the Lordship is not so: but He is first Maker, then Lord: first He made all things by the Father's will, then, He is Lord of the things which were made by Him.
