...and James sloughed a slew of overdue library books, having yet again bit off more than he could chew.

Everyone has their own spin

i've visited a sweet black church the past two weeks on Sunday morning. As part of their worship they recite the Apostle's Creed.

It's a pretty normal thing to say in a church. It's old, it's tested and approved, and lots of Christians can agree over it (not all probably, but we dont talk about them).

But at this church they changed a small thing that ends up revealing their hand.

It's not "catholic" (lower-case 'c' of course) but "Christian" church.

It screams, "we are not Catholic!"

Everyone has their spin i guess, throwing their little twist of interpretation into the mix. Oh, and the "Virgin Mary" was written "virgin Mary". The devil's in the details. And i'm sure i missed some other nuances in there...
