If you based your knowledge of the human species exclusively on adverts, you'd think that the normal condition of humanity was to be a good-looking single person between 20 and 35, with excellent muscle-definition and/or an excellent figure, and a large disposable income.

Religion

Nov 07, 2020

Christianity is a religion of continuity and discontinuity as well. It's about what stays the same and what changes in the twinkling of an eye.
