In Sympathy

Last week's parish bulletin [PDF] listed parishioners who died recently. They were named Catherine, Dolores, Eshter, Marguerite, Mira, Anthony, Charles, Edward, James, John (2), Joseph, Richard, and Thomas.


It also listed the recently baptised. They were named Alexandra, Amanda, Andriana, Audra, Deanna, Gillian, Isabelle, Jade, Carter, Devin, Gavin, Jake, Liam, and Matthew.

  1. So who named their kid John(2)?

    Was John(1) the older brother?

    Didn't this act already play out in a TV series?

  2. Now that you mention it, isn't there a novel with a character named Second Corinthians?

  3. IIRC the First Corinthians were turned into pillars of salt or remain as part-and-parcel of some whale's corpus.
