Graham commented, after I mentioned I had installed Ubuntu Linux on my home computer: “Ooh, do let us know how you get on.”
I’m getting on quite well, and I think it is the best Linux distribution for home and church office desktops I’ve seen to date. But it isn’t for most people yet.
The biggest problem […]
In my recent post Is the mainline church closed-source? I resigned myself to using the King James Version of the Bible. Last night, I installed more open-source software on my computer — I’m loving the Ubuntu Linux, but that’s another entry — and GnomeSword2 Bible Guide had a translation I had never heard of: the […]
Chuck Currie forwards without comment a news release about a proposal that will come to the United Church of Christ General Synod (Atlanta!) this summer.
Since the subject of alternative formation and fellowship has come up several times before, I can’t help but be interested. Now, I have to wonder if there is a difference here […]
After lamenting the loss of at least one member congregation recently, there’s some good news, and here in the Joseph Priestley district.
The long-emerging Unitarian Universalists of Gettysburg has (have?) associated with the UUA. Just found out, but thanks to the Public Opinion, Chambersburg, Pennsylvania. (The story is held at Feeds4All.com.)
While I hold fellowship with the Unitarian Universalist Association, and formerly held unitarian theology, I am a trinitarian Universalist. I can (and have) said the Nicene Creed without bursting into flames or rueing my hypocrisy. There are a few of us, and perhaps to the scandal of the UU rank-and-file, more than would be guessed.

I’m thinking back more than ten years when the Internet when email was still exotic, text based tranfers (anyone remember gopher?) were cutting edge, and my web browsing had to be done through a Unix shell.
My, but times have changed.
Today:
I check bus and subway schedules online. I order pizza online. I check my work email online. I pay […]
After two years of almost continuous design changes and technological upgrades — I started out self-coding! — Boy in the bands is now two years old!
My friend Terrance blogged (”Feed a Kid, Change the World“) about the “Nineteen cents a day” campaign of the McGovern-Dole program, and how one can click-though to help and so forth. Here’s a letter Terrance links in the Washington Post by the former senators who headline the organization.
I’m assuming that my readers understand that […]
The more I read and nose around — for what, fifteen years now? — the clearer it is that the locus of universalist theology is among the Evangelicals and in no way among the Unitarian Universalists, or even in the mainline. (Oddly enough, the conversation around Universalism is validating after years of being painted […]
It seems such a folly to have spent so much to collect books only to let them yellow. (Not that I’ve stopped. Just won a 1799 collection of William Vidler’s works on eBay.)
Time to blog a tad less and read a tad more. Here’s what I’ve pulled from the shelf.
