A friend who is working on a scholarly article asked whether I knew of any Christian images of humans ascending to heaven. I didn't, but a little poking around turned up this one. Weird! I suppose it illustrates moving from darkness into light. And I've read of people who experience a near-death experience as resembling a tunnel that leads to light beyond. All the same, what would one do with this narratively?!?

Labor Day 2024—VOTE!
September 2, 2024
Normally, I like to honor Labor Day with a focus on unions, women, and work. As early voting gets under way this year, however, the really big idea seems to be VOTE. (For Harris-Walz, of course.)
