• A question of gender

    It seems to me that one rarely sees a priest who happens to be a woman happen to wear a maniple.

    Actually, one doesn’t see many people wear the maniple these days, for reasons that I’ve never quite understood.

    Why, when one does see such a thing, does it seem invariably to be sported on the left forearm of a priest who happens to be a man?

    Your thoughts please.

    (Yeah, I’ve given up on wittering. Transpires Q, in which I wrote that thing, was too CPU-intensive for the poor wee colo-server to cope with when bots came knocking, so it had to go; it’s all-but a dead language now anyway…)

    Mental. On my ‘to do’ list for today was to write a ‘back blogging’ post…

    Very strange!

    Think of it as the Holy Spirit, Nick.

    Or alternatively think of it as synchronicity as many of the rest of us might do.

    Glad you are coming back.

      So it does. Thanks, I’ve updated the link.

      I usually read Fr David’s blog in google reader. What an exotic layout it has in real life!

    My dears, I can only wish I were as exotic in real life!

    Hope Nick starts blogging again too! He did a post reviewing The Dark Knight once, which is more down-wit’-da-kidz than highfalutin’ praepostorial theatre reviews 😉 (that said, do hope you do The Habit of Art! :-))

      Thanks John – you’ve already got a nicely behaving rss feed for your content but I can’t find one for comments.

    Whatever else one might be waiting for in the post, there is always the joy of guessing how many copies of the Code of Canons of the Scottish Episcopal Church will arrive. Despite having been delighted with receiving a copy last week, there was more to come today. Last week, I merely received a copy…

    Every year, I hear people begin to moan about it getting earlier and earlier. It used to be the start of November. Then the end of October. Now, even sooner. The appearance of the first Christmas promotions in the shops. I’ve tended to join in. Can the retailers not wait?
