In medieval folklore, bears are said to give birth in the winter. A bear cub is born as a shapeless and eyeless lump of flesh, which the mother shapes into its proper form by licking it (the origin of the expression "to lick into shape"). The cub is also supposedly born head first, which makes its head weak and its arms and legs strong, allowing bears to stand upright.

Finished up the Relics class yesterday with an excellent discussion of early Protestant critiques of relic veneration!

It was great to spend some time each week talking about such a fascinating topic with such engaged students.
