Joel Garver, a prof at LaSalle, has an insightful writeup over at his blog, Sacra Doctrina, on the state of children and violence in Philadelphia. Apropos our last conversation here, read his post if you get a chance. The information comes from the Report Card 2007: The Well-Being of Children and Youth in Philadelphia, “the city’s annual analysis of the overall condition of its youngest citizens.” Despite the sad results, I agree with Joel’s suggested plan of action: fasting, prayer, and service.

RSSThe Anglican Scotist directs our attention to Optimus Prime’s piercing critique of the GAFCON document and its attack on the Anglican Covenant, found at the Rev. Canon Kendall Harmon’s excellent blog. OP makes the especially perceptive point that the Covenant is not in itself a “fix” for current problems, but rather an something like an prolegomena or architecture for how churches in the communion relate to one another. It’s subtle but extremely important re: our expectations.
ADDITIONALLY: a link offered by 3rd Mill. Catholic analyzing the GAFCON.
(0)Head on over to haligweor, a blog I discovered thanks to 3rd Mill. Catholic, who i discovered thanks to Per Caritatem. I was especially delighted to read the quite funny post “Faux Catholic.” Those of you that are still not quite sure what being Anglo-Catholic entails, as is the case with most Anglo-Catholics I know, will definitely get a kick out of it. One of the coolest things about this strange blogging culture is learning that there are other people out there going through situations quite similar to your own. A rather virtual support group.

This is so heartbreaking. Bless you Father Dan and Mother Kate for taking such loving care of your little one.
Let’s take it easy on the Father-mantle
I didn’t mean to drop it down on you like Elisha! but it is a burden of love.
This hasn’t to do with children, but my post today over at my deepgraceoftheory sums up what’s been going on in my conversations with scientists and I could sure use some theological and poststructuralist help. This is, in other words, a good time to see if you want to re-enter the conversation, which I know is one that readers of unlikeness are interested in, whether or not you have time to get involved with us right now. I do have some wonderful scientists in this conversation though, I must say! We are remarkably careful with one another’s feelings. I’m having a wonderful time thinking with them!
Janet, thanks for the update. I’ll definitely try to grab some time on Deep Grace of Theory on my lunch breaks away from the kids. Thanks for staying in touch with us.
You are so gracious! I should have said the post is called “Theorist abases herself in dust and ashes,” because the conversation moves fast, and it will get buried soon, but this is the post that updates and provides an entry for new voices.
