Got Your Jugate Yet?

A. Unabashed Pacifist:

If peace came up for sale on eBay, what would we bid?

B. Unabashed Christian:

Holy One,

How sad, how ironic – your followers depressed and mourning when death had no power over you.
How sad, how ironic – some who claim to follow you also expect you to precipitate mass murder beyond imagining, for they choose death over life.
How sad, how ironic – so many of the rest of your followers keep silent about this perversion of your message, this abomination and desecration of your name and your risen life.
Raise us from this tomb.
Amen

C. Un-quoting Jesus:

“Rock of Ages, cleft for me.”

[Not what He said when He left the tomb.]

D. Blog: A Word We Needed?

Catchword: jugate


Part of Speech: n.

Quotation: "According to Warlick, the popularity of a president, the quantity of buttons produced and the design content are key factors. Buttons with photographs are always more sought after by collectors. Buttons that include both the presidential and vice-presidential candidates are called jugates and are highly prized, especially if they include photographs of the candidates."
