You're welcome. I forget what for...

Thanks also for the statuette collections you sent me today. I love black kitty cats!😻 My fur baby is one (she's not my only fur baby...but she is the one who is and always shall be my baby of the bunch 😻).

By the way, you made a comment on another thread about being a recovering Catholic secular humanist. Me too, sort of. I was a Catholic and I am a humanist but there's actually more than one kind. I think I'm a bit closer to a Renaissance humanist than a secular one, with a dash of socialism and utopianism mixed in with my democratic leanings. I'm a staunch believer in the civil and equal rights of all people. I believe in reason and science but find there is also truth in the spiritual, metaphysical and paranormal...we just don't know the science behind it yet. I believe in the possibility, perhaps even reality or at least probability, of beings/forces more powerful than ourselves but I am doubtful there has ever been a singular being/force or even race thereof that has been superior to all others. However, I also believe in every person's to practice faith in their own way and that there is no wrong religion or lack thereof...but I abhor religion pushers (like missionaries) and I don't think there is a decent organized religion on this planet. Also, my favorite poet is Robert Burns, who was never described as a humanist but was a bit of an Everyman who believed in and supported the causes of ordinary people and humanity, as do I.

Not as fun as the response you gave - certainly not as simple - but then I never was exactly the round peg fitting in the round hole (talk about tests 😉).
