Been Vetted Yet?

A. Unabashed Pacifist:

Bring it on…PEACE!

B. Unabashed Christian:

Holy One,

You can come down now. I don’t need for you to be on that cross.
You can come out now. I have no need for another dead Jew.
You can call my name now. I’m ready to listen.
You can show me the way. I want something better.
Amen

C. Un-quoting Jesus:

“Send me an email about that idea of marketing T-shirts with my pale face on them.”

[Graven image? Making Him in our likeness? Craven image? He probably wonders what has possessed us, but He never said this.]

D. Blog: “Vetting”

1. to examine or treat as a veterinarian does
