In a fascinating exploration of the biblical stories about the birth of Jesus, bestselling author Bishop John Shelby Spong shows how a literal interpretation of the Bible has led to an atmosphere of sexism and negativity towards women in Christian culture. In its place, Spong favors a more creative, or midrashish approach to scripture.
In Born of a Woman, Spong challenges the doctrine of the virgin birth, tracing its development from early accounts in the Gospels of Matthew and Luke, to its status as the prevailing belief in the early Christian church. Finally, he reveals its legacy in our contemporary attitudes toward women and female sexuality. John Shelby Spong was the Episcopal Bishop of Newark before his retirement in 2000. As a leading spokesperson for an open, scholarly and progressive Christianity, Bishop Spong has taught at Harvard and at the Graduate Theological Union in Berkeley, California. He has also lectured at universities, conference centers and churches in North America, Europe, Asia and the South Pacific. His books include A New Christianity for a New World, Rescuing the Bible from Fundamentalism, Resurrection: Myth or Reality?, Why Christianity Must Change or Die, and his autobiography, Here I Stand. "These are fascinating speculations, informed by first-rate scholarship and inspired by religious faith . . . Spong restores a flesh-and-blood humanity to the mother of Jesus . . . and beautifully reincarnates her as a feminine aspect of God." - Ron Hansen, author of Mariette in Ecstasy--Library JournalBinding Type: Paperback

What a Cute Egg… Err Flower
Easy to install and easy to use! It’s as simple as turning two knobs to tighten onto the screen and placement of the arm.
So adorable and has a strong magnet. Looks a little like an egg but who doesn’t love eggs and daisies?

Good mount for tesla cars
Build
The design is a very different when compared to regular magnetic mounts. Some people will like it and others wouldn't. This looks like a daisy flower and can be mounted to any tesla car.
Material
The phone holder itself seems to be made of good materials, and offers a sturdy mount that remains secure in place. It does take some cranking to tighten and there is always a worry of over tighetening and breaking it.
Functionality
Installation and removal are straightforward and quick. The magnet provides a strong hold for my Samsung Ultra, and keeps it firmly in position during drives.
Value for Money (VFM)
At $16, the product offers good value, however at a tad higher price. Would recommend only to those who like the looks and need the mounting functionality.

Heavy duty, super stretchy, and keeps everything secure!
I am impressed with this truck bed cargo net. It stretches incredibly well to cover full loads, but snaps back into shape perfectly without sagging. The elastic mesh is thick and feels very durable.
The included hooks are sturdy and make it super easy to anchor down to the truck bed tie-downs in just a few seconds. I’ve used it for groceries, camping gear, and loose boxes on the highway, and absolutely nothing shifts or flies out. If you want peace of mind while driving your truck, this organizer is a must-have. Highly recommended!
