Our tiny campus TEC ministry is trying out a new "Canterbury Cafe" open hours model (show up, have coffee, chat, nothing else planned) and I'm struck by how many undergrads are queer & trans & questioning and say "I tried the Catholics on campus already and there's no future for me there."

Iā€™m guessing itā€™s a copyediting oversight - the writers probably sourced their translations in the compilation and then forgot to delete the reference.

what could possibly be the reason for mentioning this specific translation?

a few weeks back I had to scramble and get my spouse on the ferry from Manhattan to Perth Amboy, otherwise he wouldn't have gotten home from work until after 11pm. Thank goodness I have a car, can't imagine how hard our terrible train network is on people who don't or can't drive.

Stopped off on the way to the train at St. Francis of Assisi in Manhattan and its marvelous mosaic work, and the martyred St. Andrew Kim, the first Korean Catholic priest.

I was suspicious (rather like Aviation Gin and its backing from Ryan Reynolds) but I don't imagine it's any more or less evil than any other Diageo-owned brand, and for a middle-of-the-road bar stocker I am pleased with it.
