I started working on this blog post three days ago, and the economic reality keeps changing.
First, I’m not happy with the banking situation, but it’s a piece of news unrelated to the mortgage bailout that sticks in my craw today. From the Seattle Times via the Neatorama blog, we learn that Alan H. Fishman, the [...]
Kevin Kelly’s Cool Tools site is one of my favorites for finding the perfect tool that does many jobs.
Normally that’s a physical artifact, but today he recommends a free download — a book and site about games called Deep Fun — that comes from the Unitarian Universalist Association.
Hurrah!

My friend Katharine has commented on her own LiveJournal on the gasoline that cannot be found in metro Atlanta. Other reports I’ve read note great anxiety in western North Carolina with spot shortages in other Southern locations.
The word is that these shortages are due to hurricane-hampered refinery production, but new refineries aren’t going to be [...]
OK: not this hymn. But I’ve watched nearly all of the broadcasted episodes of Battlestar Galactica — all but episode 10 “Revelations” — in the last few weeks (thanks A.M. for the DVD loan) and the religion threads therein are fascinating. I’m not so keen even now to bring it up because just discussing them [...]
I mean that in the literal, physical sense. Hubby and I were out on lower Connecticut Avenue tonight — he needed clothes and we both needed some Malaysian food — to see a press crew avec satellite truck outside the Mayflower Hotel: site of one Universalist General Convention, our domestic partnership celebration brunch and at [...]
But moving has taken more of an effort than I thought, and Verizon has failed to get our DSL transferred. So it’s writing from a coffee shop for the time being.
Feel free to add your thoughts to the desert island book list, or comment here about what you make of the McCain debate demurral, and [...]
Hubby and I became homeowners yesterday, and we move Monday. Much of what we own is in boxes. But there are a few handfuls of books I can’t bear to put away yet. As if I might be called to preach this Sunday or lead a retreat . . .
Add in the fact that [...]
There’s a long-standing tension among the Christians within Unitarian Universalism over what is Christian: is culture enough? can one be reared Christian, and this upbringing be sufficient to hold and maintain the faith?
I think this belief in Christian culture — as a high call of character formation — is fading in part because it [...]
I love open governance, responsive organizing and Christian fellowship.
For these reasons, I asked members of the Unitarian Universalist Christian Fellowship leadership if Board minutes and financials could be put up on the UUCF site. And they did, promptly. And I’m very happy. Thanks!
If you want to see them yourself, the download links are at [...]
If you read this history of the Church of the Larger Fellowship, you’ll get the impression that the Universalists had a scant history of extra-congregational ministry and what it did have was only tacked on to the better-known Unitarian Church of the Larger Fellowship to form the body we know today. (More about the National [...]
