I’ve noticed in the coverage surrounding the UCCF dispute and this Baptist Times story that one name keeps turning up, that is The Lawyers’ Christian Fellowship .
I have to say that it appears that they have a Public Policy Unit which states its aim as being to “promote Christian values by: defending the freedom [...]
There is something quite strange about finding out after the event that you have met somebody whose blog you read. On Saturday I thought there were 6 adults at the Ship meet who also had wiblogs.However, over the last few days I have become aware the figure is somewhere nearer 9.
It’s all getting rather [...]
The Guardian has some interesting wrapping paper in it this week. It’s billed as being festive, but you’d really have to stretch your imagination to put todays Rachel Whitehead offering in that category. Her offering consists of a packages wrapped up in serveral layers of brown paper, cardboard boxes and badly applied sticky tape [...]
Very interesting article on women bloggers in Marie Claire . It turns out that of the 50 million blogs worldwide, 56% are written by the fairer sex.
Interesting that according some academic they quote that “the web is important a forum for 21st century women as the novel was for the likes of Jane Austen and [...]

Fineline , Farli and Dave’s Cartoon Blog have all taken up the current debate on Christian Unions so I’ve decided, for what it’s probably not worth, I’d put my bit in aswell.
First off – I believe that this story is linked to the very real rise in secular fundamentalism in this country [...]
Well, here I am at the end of No Music Day, having accomplished the task and ready to reflect.
To me the most striking thing was the awareness that I got of how I use music to block out people, lonliness and boredom.
On the train I had to listen to the juvenille screams, rather than block [...]
Tuesday 21st Nov is No Music Day
Saturday 25th is Buy Nothing Day
These are not compulsory days, but rather days where people are being encouraged to stop doing part of their normal activity in order to reflect on the nature and purpose of the activity. As both make clear the idea of these [...]
I am bored and kind of actually have some time to spare and so am connecting to Farli’s meme.
