We are to evangelize the community towards God. This is our first assignment to preach repentance. And then demonstrate the diakonos and apostolic mandate. <a href="https://scalini-torhout.kinja.com/scalini-torhout-1826539135" rel="nofollow">scalini-torhout.kinja</a><br />Rifat Ansarihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08807558891346928498noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2086296370004835655.post-63779924458425737962015-06-17T04:12:12.312-04:002015-06-17T04:12:12.312-04:00I love that start of the story.

Most of them 'Catholic'.<br />I wanted to say something else urgently, but the thought of the teachers got me.<br />Ah, yes - chickens! In spite of my dirt phobia you have actually convinced me that we need some when our cats die.

So am I in some ways. <br /><br />Angella- Isn't it funny that I still remember that? I think it was because of the shame. Which sucks. <br /><br />Ms. Peace- Thyme- I am not sure which is worse but when you combine religion with politics, it's the absolute WORST. Which is what the Republican party is trying to do today. <br /><br />Jo- I had heard that too. According to this author, it was not allowed for church men to marry but it was certainly expected that they would procreate. I would say- "How crazy!" but I don't think it's one bit crazier than anything which probably goes on today.

Apparently it was a cost saving measure, so they didn't have to pay for priests' wives anymore. Must have been an odd transitional period, eh?

Not that I have seen many chickens at all, but.........<br /><br />Of religion or politics, which do you think harms mankind the most? I think it is a toss-up. The whole world would be better off without either. (although I must say that I sometimes like the way this pope thinks when he is not thinking of religion but of the plight of people.)Peace Thymehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17361079101751470855noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2086296370004835655.post-16291834453432331332015-06-14T15:01:45.054-04:002015-06-14T15:01:45.054-04:00Oh dear, what a lack of imagination your teacher h...Oh dear, what a lack of imagination your teacher had.
