Have to celebrate all the ways he loves us. Be cool if there were more days of cowering under the ways he hates us for not doing what he wants.

The German judge is particularly strict. An 8.7 is the highest score she's ever given.

Though we all could just Google it, if we cared.

Otherwise it would be posted in the Catholic Fortum.

Yes, that feast is a real thing. Invented by Pope Pius XII, a/k/a "Hitler's Pope."

https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pope_Pius_XII

Don't know if any of Jesus' other body parts rate a Holy Feast. I do remember reading somewhere that in the Middle Ages, no fewer than 42 cathedrals claimed to possess the One and Only Gen=u-wine Foreskin of Jesus.
