My favourite part of the UK is the Scottish Highlands, although I've never visited them. Likewise, the reason here is their natural beauty.

What do you believe will be the fate of the universe? The fate of humans on this planet?

Have you been to Westminster Cathedral?

I went past it a few weeks ago, but didn't have time to go in. I'll try to attend a service there next time I'm in Central London. It's a ten minute walk from where I get off.

What do you think of Pope Francis?

Do you like stained glass windows?

Do you like the smell of beeswax?

Yes.

What do you consider the best way of cultivating the virtue of meekness/humility or, if you prefer, eradicating the sin of pride?

Living in obedience to a superior.

Have you ever been to a monastery or convent or perhaps the ruins of one?
