The Book of Luke

i have always said The Book of Matthew is my favorite Gospel because The Beatitudes but i've been reading some scholarship on The Gospel which is how they came about and, at least in Thomas Cahill's opinion in his tome Desire In The Everlasting Hills, he asserts that the Johanine gospel was a problematic and he also said that JohnPaul was a disaster which is fascinating and then Francis made him a saint and that too is like outside of all the usual things that people do to become canonized but it's entirely his perogative when you get right down to it.  The miracles are attested of course but they can be what they are you know.  As Einstein said, science makes you think it's all a miracle or there are no miracles.  Something said more beautifully and meaningfully than my paraphrase but not necessarily with more feeling.

to face the value of the feeling is really key
it gets so very little credit for holding this whole thing altogether
it's at the bottom of Freudian slips
and that's not all!
pretty much the root and some of it is a tap root
and some spread wide for the new rains
so there are these two styles

straight & narrow & machine gun

Water is miraculous.
What we are doing to our water supply is so unintelligent.

Please join Eric Brockovich and be aware, i mean at least take 5 minutes everyday to breakdown in tears over what we're doing to the water, it's that bad really... if it weren't for rain, then it would be completely hopeless.  Round-up is ubiquitous now.  It's got that lovely cowboy sound to it doesn't it.  The war on plants has turned into the war on ourselves.  Somehow we should have seen that coming.  Okay so Gospel truth is a huge subject idnit?

Cast your bread upon the waters.

i have to stick to books then, that will be key for this particular work-in-progress and nothing will come of winging

the latest are all the Thomas Cahill the Librarian could find in the system for me, and so that's been delightful and i want to continue this study and i want to correspond with him and i am so very glad that he wrote the one about Pope John 23 because that one tells me all kinds of good things about Angelo who i wear on my rosary because i believed that he was very good and all those innovations that got started he never saw them take place and i would like to ask him if he thinks all those early brotherhoods the Franciscans and the Dominicans and the Benedictines and the Jesuits, need to include girls now? 

And we know the Dominicans were violent.  What about the Franciscans.  When was it that they were eliminating the Gnostics?  Didn't that go on even in The Second Millennium, like at Languedoc?

not such a suspicious mind as definitely always knows there are several possibilitys
