The US markets were weak in light holiday trade.
The 'fiscal cliff' is unlikely to be resolved until January.
The markets may weaken a little more, but I think we have seen enough for today.
Merry Christmas!
Spiritual pride leads to a lingering spiritual death. It turns the living being into a tomb, bright and polished on the outside, proudly ornamented with scrupulous attention to detail, and ostentatious adherence to the letter of the law — but inside full of corruption, and festering foulness. They love the rituals and the worldly forms of religion, but want nothing to do with mercy and love. It is a sickening romance with the self, unto death.
