I'm sure they did. These editorial features also just so happen to show up at the same time Polycarp went to Rome and he and the Pope made kissy-kissy but agreed that each other's respective community can celebrate Easter according to their tradition but other than that, full communion!

And if anyone else but Goodacre had published it, it would have been binned on the spot and perhaps no one would have even deemed it worthy of a review Oh I don't know about that, many want/need for Thomas to be dependent on the Holy Four 4.
