It might not be that impractical, since this is what the crossroads looks like.
Then again, just moving it to the local church would likely be simpler and more practical.

Do you feel embraced?
teachings of the Bible are so muddled and self-contradictory that it was possible for Christians to happily burn heretics alive for five long centuries. It was even possible for the most venerated patriarchs of the Church, like St. Augustine and St. Thomas Aquinas, to conclude that heretics should be tortured (Augustine) or killed outright (Aquinas). Martin Luther and John Calvin advocated the wholesale murder of heretics, apostates, Jews, and witches. - Sam Harris, "Letter To A Christian Nation"

Well, fuck.
Ardern To Resign As PM
Quote:New Zealand’s prime minister, , has said she is resigning, in an unexpected announcement that came as she confirmed a national election for October.
At the party’s first caucus meeting of the year on Thursday, Ardern said she “no longer had enough in the tank” to do the job. “It’s time,” she added.

She is worn out and is smart enough and honest enough to say she needs to step away.

She always struck me as being surprisingly honest as a politician (didn't she refer to another guy as "an opinionated prick" when she thought the microphone was turned off?

Yes, David Seymour, libertarian leader. ‘Arrogant prick’. As a bipartisan gesture, a framed copy of both her comment and her apology was signed by both of them and auctioned off for $100 000, the money going to prostate cancer research.

Agreed. It’s a mark of maturity to admit when you’re burned out.

Maybe she wants to have babies and since she figured out that she didn't have time to get married she will have less time for babiez.
