“Lord”
What does this word mean to the man in the street. The expenses scandal in the UK both reflects and feeds our modern scorn for “lords”.
But a better word? King? Master? Boss? I don’t know.
Is there a place for using the words but informing and reinvigorating their meaning? (a la Pauline Greek)
Michael Hutton
I’ve discovered the words “sin” and “judgment” are often met with distaste and annoyance. (The exception is talking about judgments in a legal sense.) But especially the word “sin”. I’ve heard people say things like “Sin is such a harsh word. I like to use something like mistake or crime. Because really, who can define sin?” Like the word “ethics”, crime or mistake can be talked about without once mentioning God or some other type of supreme being. But once you change the word to “Sin” everything changes.
