I don’t like to judge, well sometimes I do but that’s a “Penn” for another time. But, seriously, I read a story last week about Laura Fernee a scientist from London. It appears that Ms. Fernee had to quit her job because of physical limitations…… actually it was because of her physical appearance. She told…
Who is this Man? The Least of These
It was John Lennon who said, “Jesus was all right, but his disciples were thick and ordinary. It's them twisting it that ruins it for me.” And from what I hear when I talk to people and read what people have to say about Jesus that seems to be the common opinion. Jesus was all…
