God, Nature, Contemporary Issues & Knitting

While I may not be an ordained member of the clergy, those who know me have remarked that few "clergy persons" know more about theology than I do! Although many have expressed doubts, which they are entitled to, I still call myself a Christian. Professing Jesus Christ and Him Crucified does not preclude me from respecting other faiths, nor does it preclude me loving those who practice other creeds -- or even no creed. It is my intention to use this blog to address issues I feel I cannot address in my knitting blog. I will also use this space for pictures of animals and beautiful scenery. After all, such is God's creation.

"And God made ... the greater light to rule the day, and the lesser light to rule the night: [God] made the stars also." Genesis 1:16 KJV 

Is this great science? Not exactly. Beautiful poetry? I think so. I am comforted to know that there is always light, even if we aren't aware of it.

And some say animals don’t have souls? 

Read Ecclesiastes 3:21 AGAIN -- if you didn’t read it before!

I never understood why some people refer to slow sex as “making love”. Sex is not making love. Never.

Sex is an act

“Making love” an attitude.

And it’s always the attitude that defines what you are really doing.

Have decided to try for a “Month of Anteros” for those of us who are not in relationships.

Indeed, may God grant us peace!

Ring out wild bells to the wild sky, The flying cloud, the frosty light: The year is dying in the night; Ring out, wild bells, and let him die. Ring out the old, ring in the new, Ring, happy bells, across the snow: The year is going, let him go; Ring out the false, ring in the true.

~Alfred, Lord Tennyson, ‘In Memoriam’ A.H.H..(1833)

The impressive Lincoln Cathedral (officially the Cathedral Church of St. Mary), dominates Lincoln’s skyline and can be seen from 30 miles away. Its 271-foot central tower is the second tallest in England.

“In their historical revision, the PA and Fatah ignore that Jesus was a Jew (“Judean”) according to Christian tradition and that the Roman Empire changed the name of the land Judea into “Palestine” only a hundred years after Jesus lived. In spite of the dishonesty, senior PA and Fatah leaders have consistently presented Jesus and his mother Mary as Palestinians and Jesus as “the first Palestinian Martyr,” and the first Palestinian refugee, as documented by Palestinian Media Watch”

Not to mention that the PA and Hamas have violently persecuted Christians.
