Here are the most interesting things I’ve read this week.
Well, el Papa, gave us the Ratsfinger again. Twice in one trip.

That has to be a record! Twice in four days.
Kelvin, do the RCs lump everyone in the Encyclical? I ask because your orders are not really English orders are they?
Thanks David | Dah•veed – I think that all Anglicans are lumped together. I am indeed not in English orders.
Its worth reading Apostolicae Curae all the same. Much of the argument focuses on the actual form of the Anglican ordinal at the time.
David | Dah•veed,
In fairness to Benedict, it was a very nice stole. One wonders if he has two millenia of papal vestments to chose from – The Vatican must have the Mother of all Dressing Up Cupboards! 🙂
Oh yes, and I nearly forgot. I saw a brilliant flash of blue darting over the River Kelvin yesterday. The sight of a glorious kingfisher. The kind of sight that makes you so glad you live in the city.
To Mother India Cafe yesterday for lunch with E. He does have a way with a curry menu.Then to Kelvingrove again. Still gloriously packed with people, many of whom had children with them. It is astonishing to make such a success from a object focussed city museum. I was wondering whether it will calm down…
I wish I had the time to do a research project on building healthy decision making processes in church life. It seems to me that a fundamental question is how we use patterns of democracy in decision making. People often pray for the involvement of the Holy Spirit or for God’s guidance at church meetings…
By the way, Archers fans, can someone tell me…Has Jazzer always been such a Pantomime Glasgwegian or is it new? The BBC website seems to suggest that he was born in Borchester in 1984. How come he sounds like he does?
