someday I would like to get away during the christmas holiday and not return till mid of January.
On a beach in Maui over looking the sun rising and setting every day, walking the beach and having a special man to celebrate the new year together....
( this is just one of my ideas )
great way to bring in the New year... paradise and love!
I hope all your wishes come true0 -

I am very respectful of others beliefs. My wife and her entire family are Catholic, and I respect that greatly. What I don't respect is someone telling me to "recognize the profound way they live their lives", inferring that all Christians are perfect human beings. To say that is just as ridiculous as me saying all Christians/believers are hypocrites, or all priests are pedophiles, etc, as I know that's not the case.
also, there's a massive difference between respecting someone's belief and respecting the person. I'm sure you can figure out what that means." sounded like you were putting others down
I think you inferred wrong though ... :? did I say anyone was perfect? No I did not.
I was, of course, speaking about how they feel about the day and the importance to them.
Their beliefs in their lives, yes, profound.
This is Christmas for those who believe Jesus is their savior, this is profound.0 -

you said "in the profound way they live their lives". that infers something quite different than your above explanation.Gimli 1993

2. originating in or penetrating to the depths of one's being; profound grief.

4. of deep meaning; of great and broadly inclusive significance: a profound book.
5. pervasive or intense; thorough; complete: a profound silence.
6. extending, situated, or originating far down, or far beneath the surface: the profound depths of the ocean. 7. low: a profound bow.
8. deep. COLLAPSE
noun Literary .
9. something that is profound.
the bold and underlines is how I took it. the other definitions can infer what I had suspected she meant. also given most of her other posts, I think my interpretation of what was said wasn't a leap at all.Gimli 1993

Please tell me that.... why?
Do the Christians in your life do that? The ones I know don't.
I am not a Christian, do not attend church but even as I drive by churches
and see the subject of sermon it is often how they can be better people.
This the lovely thing about church ... a weekly reminder to just be better.
Knowing the imperfection of man.
All humans are a work in progress ... why we are here.0 -

Well I agree with you that it may have been natural to infer the more common sense of profound from her original statement, but then she went on to explain that was not what she meant. I was just pointing out the definition of profound which is consistent with her subsequent explanation.
Edit - what I really mean is I think she went on to explain what she meant by profound in this case - the profound part their religion plays in their lives......Cancel my subscription to the Ressurection

I'm not sure how many times I have to explain the same thing to you. tremors even said it was realistic to take your statement the way I did.

I'm not there yet.) So my compromise was, let's get a live tree every year. We buy a live tree that is suited to our area and after most of the danger of frost is past we plant it. Some of the trees we've planted have grow large enough now to be capturing CO2 efficiently, and she gets her Christmas tree every year.

I didn't know anyone else did this! We did that for some Christmases
but here in the South the pines ( Christmas tree type)
don't do as well as in the North.
I have planted in honor here though and we give the gift of trees also.
Our Christmas trees each year move outside after the holiday ...
then live on the deck with blue and white lights
then move to the yard and are covered in nummy bird treats til it is springtime
then they are mulch0 -
