More 10th-grade vocabulary

"Children born with deformities in deeply traditional rural parts of India, like the remote village in the northern state of Bihar that Lakshmi hails from, are often viewed as reincarnated gods. The young girl is no different — she is named after the four-armed Hindu goddess of wealth."

From an AP news article about the little girl born with 8 limbs who just underwent surgery.

I'm feeling ostracized -- like a pariah -- out here in vocabulary land. :(

At my bible study last week my teacher told us that she was going to give a "synopsis" on The Watchtower for this week.
