so, someone asked awhile back if merino sheep are good for mutton awhile back and GracePorter1 said that they aren't, but I suggest she does more research because there are different variants of merino sheep and South African merino sheep are specifically bred for their meat. I literally only created this account to correct the misinformation she spread on that question that this site deemed as expert level advice when if you look into the uses of the different variants of merino sheep, the South African merino sheep is raised specifically for mutton.

severity as I had never before attained to, and enjoyed the
compensations of an approving conscience. But time
began at last to obliterate the freshness of my alarm; the

course; I began to be tortured with throes and longings,
as of Hyde struggling after freedom; and at last, in an
hour of moral weakness, I once again compounded and
swallowed the transforming draught.

Jonathan Edwards, a Puritan pastor from Massachusetts, lived from 1703 to 1758. At 23 he became the pastor of the church at Northampton, Massachusetts, considered the largest and most influential church outside of Boston. As the Great Awakening began, Edwards published A Faithful Narrative of the Surprising Work of God, which described how the Great Awakening took effect in his parish.
