Doggy Oaths
I’d like someone to explain to me how dogs can become sworn officers. I imagine a lot from my dog’s expressions and attitudes, but I’m at a loss on this one.

This time it’s from J. K. Gayle at Aristotle’s Feminist Subject. I’m not getting into this debate. In general, I’m going to link to any list that has me on it (it’s a nice thank you, I think), and to any list that I find interesting (that’s a service to my readers). I’m honestly not…
Students at UC San Diego are trying to solve a really serious problem. (Because of the way this theme works, you need to go to the actual post to get the link. At some point I’ll try to figure out how to change that.)
I love humor and satire in particular, and I think every public figure, even if only a public figure in a minor way, should be prepared to be on the receiving end. Hmmm! It would be nice to be important enough myself to be a good target, but I suspect I’ll have to sell lots…
OK, these are just too much fun. I understand some people have gotten offended. If you’re that easily offended you should read them–you deserve it! (HT: Dave Black Online.)

This shouldn’t be an issue for those of you who believe that an infant can repent of sins and turn to Christ, the preconditions for baptism, with the parents and godparents making commitments more serious than any oath, and the infant perhaps assenting with a cry.
Hmm. But will my dog ever make it through confirmation? 🙂
I’m sure I can find an Anglican bishop who will confirm him! As for ordination of dogs or canine bishops, I wonder which province will take that step first, or perhaps someone thinks it has been taken already – and I don’t mean to refer to a possible interpretation of Deuteronomy 23:18 and Revelation 22:15.
Things are worse than I thought. At Lambeth it looks like the newly consecrated bishops will be not dogs but rabbits!
The rabbit has the appropriate facial expression for a bishop. 🙂
