Ain’t much good in warning people about an eternal torment while ignoring the temporal hells that torture bodies & souls in the here & now.

Today is a great day to overcome evil with good.

The steadily growing population of rare lesser horseshoe bats in the shed (roughly 100) attests to the level of flying insect life in the forest outside, since each bat catches around 3,000 per night.

Healthy nature depends on healthy, wild, functioning *ecosystems*.
