I love the layout too much to change it, although it bugs me sometimes, and lack the skills to customize it.

This was a result of my explaining that I had spent some time on Good Friday reading some of the historical Jesus materials that have been found over all these decades of studying Dead Sea Scrolls, Nag Hammadi, the Apocryphal gospels and other bits of papyrus.There were many links that drew a click, like was the date of the crucifixion ever arrived at, and some scholars think April 3 as a result of extrapolating a timeline based on the four New Testament gospels along with other sources and figuring back to when Passover would have been during the year generally agreed to as his year of death. That lead to “stauros” and how the cross we know may not have been the type of cross used, although the Romans had a variety of sadistically whimsical designs, but that it is often referenced by ancient Greek historians as stauros, which would have been one giant vertical beam. That all lead to depictions of the crucifixion during various ages and the number of nails used in this time period vs that, and whether they painted it with nails through the wrists or the hands.

I then found a marvelous link to click on the “historical/actual Jesus” and the “Jesus of the mind” in which a debate was raging about whether or not the physical being known as Jesus actually ever ate, drank or, indeed, suffered, or did all that suffering only take place in the mind of Paul, and apparently there are folks that spend their lives studying all this, and there I was, on Good Friday just about 3PM, the time of death we were taught, reading not scripture nor a missal, but philosophical and historical treatises. I didn’t start out to do that.I really had sat down to answer some email and thought I’d look this “one little thing” up while I finished brewed my tea.

Cradle Catholic. As inescapable as DNA even for one as lapsed as I.

*Arthur Jackson* 05/08/78-07/01/07

It’s been 5yrs and it feels like yesterday…some days are better than others, but the pain remains…I’ve know this man since 1st grade, we attended elementary & high school together….He was my friend,soulmate,my LIFE…Our kids miss him so much, I wish he was here to mentor,guide, his boys(2) or see his daughter as she blossoms into a beautiful,bright,intelligent, young lady….although he died during his 2nd surgery it was still a result of gun violence…this type of savagery has claimed the ives of so many of Nola’s fathers, my youngest son’s kindergarten class had 6 kids including my son whose dad was killed…my really goes out to the kids, because they’re the ones whose really suffering….this has to STOP, just the thought of some poor child being told they’re dad is DEAD, gone foever and haing to endure the pain on their face, (as I recall my kids experience) breaks my heart….PEACE*
