“The Bible is indeed the greatest book ever written. It has shaped the cultures of the world in countless ways, and it contains the words of everlasting life. But for so many today, it is largely opaque, indecipherable – at best a puzzling text from a prescientific age.” Bishop Robert Barron, The Word on […]
We admit that the Bible is not easy for everyone to follow. But usually, this is because the person does not believe in himself enough and is too much weighed down by entrenched human doctrines or dogmas that obscure the Biblical text.
The inability of Christians to grasp the meaning and message of both Genesis and Revelation create a great divide in America. Christians struggle with both the beginning and culmination of the Scriptures — the Alpha and the Omega as they might be called. Both Genesis and Revelation bring a lot of baggage with them to […]
Turkey has positioned itself with great care to be the go-between with Russia and Ukraine – and this seems to be paying off. On Thursday afternoon, President Vladimir Putin rang the Turkish President, Recep Tayyip Erdogan, and told him what Russia’s precise demands were for a peace deal with Ukraine. The Russian demands fall into […]

Met de hoge brandstofprijzen en het milieu in acht nemend moet men er eens goed over na denken welke afstand en hoe men deze wil afleggen om de nodige boodschappen te doen.
Nu de brandstofprijzen zo hoog zijn kan het best geen kwaad om de snelheid wat te temperen en het sportief rijden achterwege te laten.

“Situaties en personen komen bij ons zoals het licht dat we erop schijnen vanuit onze gedachten. Hoe onbewust oordelen we anderen door het licht dat in ons is, veroordelen of keuren hen door ons begrip van wat goed en fout is, eerbaar en oneerbaar! We laten gewoon ons oordeel gelden door het licht wat in ons is.”

Originally it was “Marcus Space” but I was corrected about it when it would have to mean “the space of Marcus Ampe” that it should have an ” ‘s” added being “Marcus his space”.
Your thought is welcome, because I would love to know how it best would be. Before I changed it from Marcus Space I had done some search about the grammatical rules. Though not a linguist and not knowing the English language properly, having also to decide to take the UK, American or Australian English I chose the English from the United Kingdom (my mother having been born there and having lived there as well)
Looking at the Possessive adjective, personal and other pronouns in the Practical English Grammar edition of 1960/1969,impression of 1976 it is written it should be Mary’s father, when it is the father of Mary and Marcus’s blog when it is the blog of Marcus.
I am called Marcus and not Marcu, so according to what I understand of the grammatical rules explained in my old grammar book, from the period I had to teach in England (not language but a.o. history), I thought I should use the apostrophe s denoting “my space” is the space of Marcus Ampe = Marcus his space => Marcus’s Space.
I do know lots of things have been changed in Dutch, French and German, the languages spoken in Belgium where I live know and in 1999 I had a very serious car accident which made I lost my memory and lots of my knowledge and ability to speak several languages. But I want to continue to learn and where there is something wrong I would like to correct it.
So I would appreciate it if you would enlighten me please.
Thanks for taking the interest for visiting my blog and for willing to comment on it.
God bless.
