I Watched "The Bible" On TV

After a slew of social media endorsements I watched "the Bible" TV production that screened last night on Australian TV. I predict churches won't be crowded with newcomers after "the bible" screened on TV. With an unruly character count and lots of death it kind of felt like a series of truncated Game of Thrones episodes but with poor dialogue and a cruel crapucious invisible main character. This main character starts by wiping out the whole world, then the city of Sodom, after a chat with the more compassionate Abraham. Then this main character convinces Abraham to kill his only son only to stop him at the last minute. I stopped  watching at that point. 

Now, I could go onto explain why I don't think God is cruel and capricious but for this post I'm going to leave that because this is how I think many people will have viewed God after seeing at least this first part of the TV production.

Everything Is Not Happening

This post is more of a personal life updated than a proper blog post 2012 was not a great year. With great gusto we had decided to make a big change in 2013. Primarily we were going to move to a new suburb and live right next to some old friends who we greatly admire. Nearly 6 months later we have not moved we're still in the same house and no closer to moving into a new place. House prices in the area have been rapidly rising (and faster than where we currently live). According to realestate.com the median house price has gone from $325k in December to $430k in March, and with 25 buyers for each house sold, houses that we can afford get sold before we have a chance to look at them. We did put an offer on one house but it failed a building inspection. So the idea of moving has been postponed.

In the last 18 months not much has changed in life my but I am aware of the great things in my life. I have the most beautiful wife and kid and, unlike thier parents they are really happy.
