When I was a kid at school they used to serve a dessert called 'John the Baptist's Head'. It was a pudding with all this red jam coming out of the side.


The angel of the dessert?

The founding of the bulk of the world's nation states post 1914 is based on self-defined nationalisms. The bulk of those national movements involve territory that was ethnically mixed. The foundation of many of those nation states involved population movements in the aftermath. When the only one that is repeatedly held up as unjust and unjustifiable is the Zionist project, the term anti-semitism may very well be appropriate. - P*D

Groan.

I suppose Beef Wellington could also have been associated with J the B. Girded loins and all that.

Jacksonville's a cool town with a great symphony. I've been there often. I've never heard anything about an American crusade against Islam down there. There is a big Wachovia bank downtown, however. Wonder if jon's been down there...

Dewey,

A lot of the ministers and rectors I have recently encountered are passionately .... rational. They are also good at critical analysis, and that includes critical insight into their own religious texts. You are fitting right in to that pattern!

Thanks for that, PD.

I think that many people called into the ministry have that trait as a basic aspect of their personality (in all honesty, it's a pretty important tool in the pastoral tool belt), and developing that trait is a big part of the education and training in a number of ways. On the other hand, I could offer you the names of many people, here and otherwise, who would say that being part of the ministry and being rational have absolutely nothing in common - that if anything, they're completely contradictory concepts. ^_^

Yes, and how very Tertullianesque of them... ^_^
