Good banter!

Funny and family friendly, good insights, especially from a Christian perspective. Highly recommend!

Gross

Too dogmatic—they should follow Jesus’ or Thomas Aquinas’ example a bit more. In one breath, one refers to a beautiful writer as “dumb lady” and then waxes about how they’ve learned to love people. It’s silly at first, but then becomes sad when I consider that this misogynistic, hateful attitude holds away in our country.
