    Nope. As a Christian, I don’t buy this division. There are my sisters and brothers in Christ, and there are those who may become my sisters and brothers in Christ. No one is better by some perceived position – an admonishment that is written soon after Christ left. We’re also new peoples in Christ. Any hurt feeling between me and someone else are between two individuals. Not as a group – but as individuals.

    And I work in something on my own that doesn’t care about my age, sex, or ethnic background, and I will happily teach it to anyone who asks.

    Thanks Mike Reeves-McMillan , that was enjoyable, and something I’ve heard from my partner many times.
