Jesus didn't weep. It's an anthropopathism for goodness sakes. It's the inspired language of accomodation, so that knuckleheads like us

down the centuries can understand the hypostatic union, the divine plan, His mercy (grace in action) and the consequences of rejection.

I miss lightning storms. They are very rare here in Northern Norway. But maybe I'll be lucky during my summer holidays.

Sounds as if you're also a rear admiral surgeon inspecting the results of a recent colonectomy, performed to alleviate lazy bowel syndrome.

So you don't hold to the belief that Jesus was fully human and fully God, Bobby?

Me, waking up to a nearly depopulated planet , getting in a car and driving straight to Area 51; then to the bowels under the Pentagon, next- overseas to check out the Vatican's catacombs and libraries, and then a quick trek to the inner sanctum of the chapel in Axum, Ethiopia.
