Do Something to Mark the Occassion

by Anne Kennedy | Mar 1, 2022 | Biblical Illiteracy, Church Year, False Teachers and Their Enablers, Garden-Variety Malaise, Jesus, Roman Catholics

I have got a lot of crepes to make today, as a supplement to the main event which is Regular Pancakes. Anglicans, at least up here, eat pancakes on Shrove Tuesday, as an attempt, I think, to shrive their fridges of all the fat, earnestly expecting to eat depressing...
