I recently visited a monastery and had some good discussions with a hierodeacon there about society today. He said the monastery gets a steady stream of young men interested in the monastic life, but often they lack the most basic skills. "I've had to teach some of them how to use a broom."
What's a scream is that they keep lifting & replacing the handset. Also, dial tone was not that long ago & everyone understood it back then.
ReplyDeleteOh, well.
So, now, give one an ax & tell him to go fetch some firewood. That could end well (not).
