Friday Miscellanous

Because here at knitting we also attempt to be cultural, like at Gay Canuck, today, for your consideration, and because I am lazy and have no time to post, I am notifying you that archeologists have found in Rome what appears to be the sarcophagus of St. Paul. This is important to me because Paul is Pablo, and that is my name. Ooops there goes my anonymity, oh well. I have always liked St Paul not just because we share a name but because he was the saint, who westernized early Christianity and who basically sold it to the Roman Empire outside of Judea, so he was pretty important in coming up with all the basic concepts that have formed the western world. It is because of this that when you go to any Catholic Mass, on of the reading is always from a letter of Paul to so and so. This man wrote profusely, and then someone managed to keep these letters for thousands of year. But seriously, he wrote to the Corinthians, and the Thessalonians and many more, and unfortunately he was the one who started many of the negative ideas of the catholic church, such as the unequal treatment of women and the hatred against other religions and he basically set up a network of churches across the Mediterranean Sea from which the Church could grow, and indeed it did. Ok, enough of the history lesson, if you want to know more click in the link:
