It is a GAP that even God may not breach ... yet I know YOU trust His love. At least, Jesus' honoring of women throughout the New testament, even ones "brought to Him by religious Jews" - caught in the act of adultery. No men were likewise brought to Jesus by these Jewish leaders!

You must have seen the mother throwing her autistic child into the canal? Certainly adds new meaning to the "Throw away Generation!" Aloha! Rico
