apostles

minding their own bus'ness
casting nets and scaling fish
some rabbi splashed their ears with words
that swamped their fishing hearts enough
to abandon all and follow him
to fish the waters of the world
saying come follow me
hang out on his drying rack



*Play, play, play while day has dawned cause night comes so quickly.

*...trying to make holy sense out of the insane around us.



*You're invited to sing the wrong song.
  -anonymous WSU student

*More than ever, we'll need to constantly keep in mind that memory, like liberty, is a fragile thing.
  -Elizabeth Loftus


*Reflections of Jean Sulivan:

  -The element of the unknown in the resurrection is like an aspiring emptiness.

  -The very vulnerability of its proofs gives faith its essential character, which is to be incapable of being possessed.


  -The object of faith is not a means of knowing, any more than the mystery of Christ is an object of historical knowledge.  We can't reach it across twenty centuries of history, but faith instantaneously makes it contemporary.  Hence it represents neither object nor an effort to understand but the transformation of the subject.

  -Thoughts by themselves have never produced a single act of love.
