On this day in 1935, my beloved noble USS Macon slowly sank into the sea off Pt. Sur. All but 2 of her crew survived. I never saw my beloved again.

I am so empty.

No particular reason.

As you may have noticed, the https://clongclongmoo.org website site has changed a bit. Some people wanted to be able to access the music with fewer clicks. That should work again now.

Here's a quick note to everyone who uses relatively new platforms such as #Miro, #Faircamp or #Coop: feel free to use the submit form to draw attention to your new music. I'd especially appreciate hearing from anyone who runs a netlabel with free #CreativeCommons music.

17th-century painting of Christ in the Winepress. A motif in Christian iconography in which Christ himself becomes the grapes and his blood becomes wine. The image derives from interpretations by Augustine and other early theologians of biblical passages and appears in Christian art from the 12th to the 18th century.

“The fact that the Twelve were all men cannot be used to bar women from leadership ministries for several reasons.

– Jesus called the Twelve before the New Covenant had been inaugurated and before the Holy Spirit had come on all believers.

– He chose the Twelve to help with his ministry to Israel within a certain cultural context.

– He chose Judas to be one of the Twelve, which makes the idea that these men were a precedent for church leadership problematic.

– Jesus never refers to the Twelve as leaders.” – Marg Mowczko
