Getting to Know Me – Getting to Know (possibly too much) About Me
You’re Origen! You do nothing by half-measures. If you’re going to read the Bible, you want to read it in the original languages. If you’re going to teach, you’re going to reach as many souls as possible, through a proliferation of lectures and books. If you’re a guy and you’re going to fight for purity [...]

Leaving labels behind
Once John Edwards dropped out, the Democratic race became “the black guy” versus “the white woman”. At least for some people.
