Meddle Not In the Affairs of Dragons; for You Are Crunchy and Taste Good with Ketchup.

If we all sang the same note in the choir, there'd never be any harmony.

Funny, isn't it, how we accept Grace for ourselves and demand justice for others?

Were you indicating some of theses should be re-introduced?

Well those are really interesting! I even think some of those would still be good for today. :)

I wonder what the rules were for the men teachers?

For what will a man be profited, if he gains the whole world, and forfeits his soul? Mat. 16:26

The 1879 List of Expectations of the society of the time:

1. Teachers each day will fill lamps and clean the chimneys before beginning work.

2. Each teacher will bring a bucket of water and a scuttle of coal for the day's session.

3. Make your pens carefully. You may whittle nibs to the individual taste of the children.

4. Men teachers may take one evening a week for courting purposes or two evenings a week to attend church regularly.

5. After ten hours in school, you may spend the remaining time reading the Bible or other good books.

6. Women teachers who marry or engage in unseemly conduct will be dismissed.

7. Every teacher should lay aside, from each day, a goodly sum for his benefit during his declining years so that he will not become a burden on society.

8. Any teacher who smokes, uses liquor in any form, frequents pool and public halls, or gets shaved in a barber shop, will give good reason to suspect his worth, intention, integrity and honesty.

Getting shaved in a barber shop a character issue?!?! I wonder what was behind that.

"Absurdity reigns and confusion makes it look good."

"Sinless perfection is such a shallow goal."

"I love God only as much as the person I love the least."

*Forgiveness is always good news. And that is the gospel truth.

(And finally, the ideas expressed above are solely my person views and not that of any organization with which I am associated.)
