Just Wondering...

A. Unabashed Pacifist:

What I’d like to hear on the nightly news: “Now this report from our correspondent on the peace front in _____.”

B. Unabashed Christian:

Holy One, Lover of Diversity,

You made us male and female, equal partners in the wonder of procreation.
Let us honor our diversity.
You made us black, white, brown, red and yellow, a rainbow of one humanity.
Let us cherish our diversity.
You made us heterosexual and homosexual, invited to share in the meaning of love.
Let us take pride in our diversity.
You made us gifted and limited, all contributing to the gift of community.
Let us find joy in our diversity.
You made us to love you and to love our neighbors.
Let us live love in our diversity.
Amen

C. Un-quoting Jesus:

“When in Rome, do as the Romans do.”

[No. Paul perhaps, but Jesus never said it – in any language.]

D. Blog: Just Wondering…

- Would it help if we all prayed for Dick Cheney’s en-lighten-ment?

- If Jews say no one should read the book of Ezekiel until age 40, what age does a Christian have to reach before being allowed to read the book of Revelation? 65?

- I read that Sarah Palin supports Miss California. Isn’t that confirmation of the “takes one to know one” saying?

- Anybody else see a connection between: (a) Bernie Madoff, (b) athletes taking steroids, (c) “beauty” contestants having breast implants, and (c) seeking justification for the use of torture?
