Let's all be careful tomorrow as well. If you blow your fingers off you won't be able to fasten your kilt. 
Have a great 4th everyone!

Thank you Father Bill,
The States are not perfect, but it is truly a blessed nation. I am proud to have been born here. May God continue to bless her and keep her safe! And, may God bless all those to whom we owe our freedom.

If I were not American, I wish I could be Canadian. I'd love to be a native born Scot but you guys still have that British problem.

Seriously, Kentucky Celt?! Really?!
Scots ARE British, first off, and secondly, your post was ignorant and absolutely offensive on a number of levels.

Apropos, Father. Begs the question for me however, as to why we are permitted to post about the American Declaration of Independence - a document Historians agree was heavily influenced in ethos and content by King Robert I's 1320 Declaration of Arbroath and the contemporary writings of the Philosophers and Thinkers of the Scottish Enlightenment - yet we are forbidden from even mentioning anything regarding Scotland's own impending monumental decision.
Hand on heart, this is not a deliberate "cat amongst the pigeons" post - but a genuine conundrum which puzzles me.
Happy 4th of July!
