God has built all possible routings on a site and knows - to a moral certainty - which one is best

Architects build just one and worry for the rest of their careers about the holes that might have been.

Ward - I think even trinitarians posit an Uncaused Cause (say Anslem, for example). But I can't go on with the analogy or else I'd risk being sacrilegious....

Hope all is well

"2 4 6 8 time to transubtantiate" and make a cross on your abdomen!! I should never have introduced the murky trinity concept..always an invite/demand for at least an encyclical or council of GCA's ( at Trent?).

And now something actually useful I now have serious suspicions that Purgatory is located at the bottom of the Quarry at Merion so do i intentionally hit it in there or just pass go and intentionally do a Tommy Nacarato and dump it in the Devils asshole?
"Golf is happiness. It's intoxication w/o the hangover; stimulation w/o the pills. It's price is high yet its rewards are richer. Some say its a boys pastime but it builds men. It cleanses the mind/rejuvenates the body. It is these things and many more for those of us who truly love it." M.Norman

Any afterlife is unlikely and/or dodgy.

There was the old joke about the golf architect creating a very deep bunker, to which a member replied "The right of eternal punishment is reserved for God alone, not the golf course architect."
