KILLER FISH!!
An excerpt from an article on AOL news.
"..A state fisheries biologist motoring near Columbia had a filling knocked out of his tooth by a high-flying fish that struck him on the side of the head. Another state biologist in the St. Charles area was seriously hurt when he was hit by a giant carp.."
what is the world coming to when we get injured from fish?
P.S.
"..Now if once we allow people to start spiritualising and refining, or as they might say 'deepening,' the sense of the world christian, it too will speedily become a useless word. In the first place, Christians themselves will never be able to apply it to anyone. It is not for us to say who, in the deepest sense, is or is not close to the spirit of Christ. We do not see into men's hearts. We cannot judge, and are indeed forbidden to judge. It would be wicked arrogance for us to say that any man is, or is not, a Christian in this refined sense. And obviously a word which we can never apply is not going to be a very useful word. As for the unbelievers, they will no doubt cheerfully use the word in the refine sense. It will become in their mouths simply a term of praise. [nowadays, however, to call someone a christian is infact an insult] In calling anyone a Christian they will mean that they him a good man. But that way of using the word will be no enrichment of the language, for we already have the word good. Meanwhile, the word christian will have been spoiled for any really useful purpose it might have served.
..The name christians was first given at Antioch (acts 11:26) to 'the disciples,' to those who accepted the teaching of the apostles."
I love C.S. Lewis.
