Conversed with a Priest at the gas pumps..
I am a Volvo fan so I started admiring it. When out steps the occupant... a Priest.
Now seeing a priest at a gas station in the northern states might be more common, but here in Florida it's rare. Especially in full black with the collar.

The Meteor Shower that Gave us Christianity (cracked.com)
The fact that there are two billion or so Christians in the world today is largely due to one guy: Constantine the Great. He's the Roman emperor who legalized Christianity, converted to Christianity himself and cleared the path for spreading the religion throughout Europe and then across the globe.

I have an Idea...
What I don't like is seeing a blind link to a random site with a message saying "here's my blog" in a blog post.
How about posting what it's about, or an article from it?? I am not going to click on a link just because you say it's your blog.
It also clogs up our front page with what looks like spam links.
Content people! Make me want to… Continue
