One response to “Odd”

Re: Odd
Hi,I happened by because I was googling on the word “thurible”. I'm a US Episcopalian, and I'm currently in the Inquiry process about becoming a vocational Deacon… which, as you know, is supposedly a lay ministry.

If you don't mind, I'll be about again… feel free to look at my blog, http://www.livejournal.com/users/lirazel/.
I'm 50, with a lot of younger friends due to interests in Japanese animation and science fiction and such… so please pardon us of some of the language is even more opaque than is commonly the case when people from the British Isles and Amurrrricans try to understand each other.
Regards (how appropriate for viewing someone's blog!)

Hand-holding
The House of Lords has passed the Sexual Orientation Regulations which will come into effect in April in Scotland. I’ve already written a lot about the attitude of certain religious adoption agencies to these, and I will not repeat that now. There has been such a focus on adoption, that a lot of the detail…
