They all got me thinking not just about life but also more about my own site, which has sat in a state of disrepair for an embarrassingly long period of time.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I especially felt it was time to restart the blog site, which predated most of the reasonable blogging tools by a century or two. Since this means that I could put away the stone hammer and chisels for more recent tools such as WordPress 5.7, it&#8217;s been an enjoyable few evenings getting the pieces back in order. It&#8217;s also fun to NOT have to look at two decades of old topics.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I still have a ton of work to do, but it feels good to get some of the pieces back online. I welcome your comments, both about what is being discussed and what we haven&#8217;t gotten to talk about yet. My goal is to provide the opportunity to explore our world, expand our minds, and enhance our ability to live lives of faith. I don&#8217;t expect you to agree with everything I write &#8212; in fact, I hope this site attracts a wide variety of thought so we can learn from each other.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For those of you wondering, this <a href=\"http:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Tertulia\">Tertulia<\/a> is an informal platform to discuss life, broadening individual knowledge, share experience, and crack a pun or two. Your comments are welcome, but please post nice. You can count of a wide range of topics, neatly organized into categories, but feel free to skip across domains to have some fun.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>So, welcome!  Sign up, weigh in, drop a pun or two, be nice, and swing away for the fences with ideas to inspire conversation!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>So, why a new site?
