Comedy Lions

<<< Previous Entry: Standard Entry | This Month's entries | Next Entry: Wedding Observations >>

I tell everyone I'm back in a place that has regular internet access and now able to write stuff on the web and what do I do? Not write anything! To use my expression of the week I'm such a punk-ass. If comedy cartoon violence was as safe and as possible as they make out, I'd be threatening some on me right now if I was you. The blame attached to any lack of writing stuff this week shouldn't be placed on me though, rather it should be placed firmly at the feet of the wonderful people who run my course and who seem to think that giving me a week to write 4000 words is fun. Yay!

Nevertheless, because I don't want to leave you with nothing here are two fascinating stories from early church history

Theologian Origen would have been killed in an early massacre of Christians had not his mother hid his clothes and so prevented him from going outside to suffer with everyone else.

"If the Tiber rises to the city walls, if the Nile does not rise to the fields, if the heavens do not move or if the earth does, if there is a famine or plague, the cry is at once: 'The Christians to the lion!' Really? All of them to one lion?" - Tertullian approx. 200AD
