when i heard the name of it i was disturbed but i didn't kno y so i looked it up and was like...."oh ya, rt.... it's a roman mythology 'god'"....and then i thought...."woo, this could nasty just because they named it that, lol".
when we first started farming... there was a chicken we named 'houdini', cuz it kept getting out of the pen.... it was murdered by a dog..... then there was a rabbit that kept getting out.....yep. murdered too. so....we got a clue & quit naming things like that...cuz even though we were only picking the 'escape artist' facet....it was like there was a curse on the name itself.
yet.... we do have a bantam rooster named 'thor'.. he's kinda the patriarch of all the bantams & i dunno if that name came from the guy we got them off of or ? cuz he's always been called that... but ya, we quit the 'foul'-naming (fowl, get it, haaaa) understanding how deliberate & important naming is in the scriptures. i try to call him 'chicken' instead or laugh because his cackle sounds like laughter.
there is this gaming thing my son plays and a player w/ the name of 'death' keeps trying to join the group and even says "hey, i'm a christian, i love Jesus, let me in--don't keep me out because of my name"=== and everybody replies "change your name then".
i'm sure you all have some stories too, LOL...let em' rip!
