“Greet Andronicus and Junia, my relatives and my fellow prisoners; they are prominent among the apostles and they were in Christ before me.” – Romans 16:7
Were there female apostles? Were all apostoloi also prebyteroi and/or episcopoi? Were there once female episcopoi/presbyteroi in the Church?
So Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie might be in a screenplay of an Ayn Rand novel. While Rand’s rampant sense of individualism lends itself to Hollywood egos, I’d like to ask Angelina Jolie what Rand would have to say about saving the children in Cambodia and whatnot? I try to think of a connection and can only shrug.
Quick Links for Today:
I’m sorry there have been so many link posts lately. I can’t possibly give a full post to every interesting site I ever come across, but I would like to share them with folks. In fact, that desire brought about the existence of this blog in the first place. More importantly, though, it’s an easy way of giving readers something to look at when Real Life™ interferes with the process of writing real posts. The rate of frequency and length of link posts will drop very soon. The vast majority of these links were bookmarked ages ago and I just got around to doing some spring cleaning in Bloglines. However, that doesn’t mean that I’ll be posting much meaty stuff in the near future. For various reasons, I’ve been trying to cut down on blogging. It’s been interfering with other aspects of my life, not the least of which being my marriage. If any of my guest bloggers would like to step up and produce thoughtful content, I would be ever so grateful.
"American Life League, (ALL), one of the most prominent and influential pro-life organizations in the US, is announcing Tuesday, April 25th as ‘National Pro-life T-shirt Day.’ They are encouraging the wearing of a pro-life t-shirt to school or work by all participants. ‘Join thousands nationwide by showing everyone that we are the majority — that we are a strong and determined voice for the babies.’ALL announced on its website."
Obviously, it’s too late to order a shirt if you don’t already have one, but perhaps if you’ve seen this in time, you can pick one you own to wear to work or school. If anyone tells you’re anti-choice and mysogynistic, tell them "Women deserve better."
