The annual holiday of love is under attack this year. And it’s not from churches encouraging people to fast. Nor is it from clergy who plan to “celebrate” on Wednesday by wiping ash on people while telling them to remember their own mortality — though talk about a mood-killer! The threat isn’t from the mashup of Valentine’s Day and Ash Wednesday. The call for war is coming from the Russian Orthodox Church.
Another excellent article. It seems to me if "Christians" simply got back to the business of following Jesus (Read Matthew's Gospel (NRSVU, my suggestion, if you can't access Shem Tov's Hebrew Matthew Translation) and get their own spiritual lives straight, things might be working out better. Tom T. Hall put it best in one of his songs - "Me and Jesus, got our own thing going. Me & Jesus got it all worked out. Me and Jesus, got our own thing going, we don't need anybody to tell us what its all about." Happy Valentines to each and every one, do something special for the one you love!!
