• Aaron Swartz

    Can I suggest you head over to Akma’s blog to read his post about the death of Aaron Swartz. It is moving and thoughtful and expresses more eloquently than I can how I feel about this death.

    Most people won’t know Aaron’s name. However we all get the benefit of his work.

    As Akma says, “the churches have an intrinsic interest in communication, free communication, profligate communication.”

    Hear, hear.

     

One response to “West End meets Maryhill Road”

    It’ll be the West End in due course, you mark my words! I’ve staked my mortgage on it.

    Point taken re subtitles Kelvin, I must try to do better in future.

    And finally (for now) I’m game to take up Father Madpriest’s (forcibly) relinquished cudgel. Oh fuck yes!

    🙂

    ps I’d guess it’s at best 50-50 whether this comment gets to stay in its original form!

    pps I’ll try not to swear on your Blog again Kelvin, unless it’s similarly for effect!

  • Dripping Wax

    The day begins with the discovery that someone (a member of the Orthodox church community who use the church sometimes) left a box of candles on a heater yesterday. The mess and stench greet me when I go into church at 0730 to get ready for the early service.

  • Chiasmus Alert

    There was an outbreak of chiasmus in the Scottish Parliament yesterday, with this comment coming from David McLetchie: “Wouldn't it be ironic if … the criminals can be smokers but the smokers will become criminals?”Very clever. Of such stuff preachers are made and preachers make stuff of.

  • Apophatic

    That last blog entry about the Election is an example of an apophatic blog entry. Not many of them about in the blogsphere.

  • So well behaved

    I'd just like you to note how good I am being at not blogging anything about the Episcopal Election in this diocese.Lead us not into temptation.
