Church journeying……

March 30, 2004

ireneQ‘s journey away from what she perceives as (and probably indeed ARE) excesses in the charismatic churches she has attended and back towards a more traditional approach has interested me.

Homosexuality, the church, and the ‘Messy Christian’

March 30, 2004

I am not going to comment on this post, except to say that I think you should go and read it, and think very carefully about its implications. A swift knee-jerk reaction either of accepting every implication of it, or of rejecting it in its entirety is definitely not what is called for. I think [...]

UK reviews of ‘the passion of the christ’ begin

March 30, 2004

LAughing Giraffe believes: “The Passion of the Christ is not anti-semitic. It is a film about personal choice, forgiveness, the moral triumph of compassion in the face of extreme brutality; another interpretation of an age old story. Given Gibson’s graphic portrayal of Jesus’ last hours even I, a non-Christian, can see why the woman sat [...]

Iconoblog reports : “One film critic described it as the film that refuses to go away, about a Saviour who refuses to stay dead. You may not like what it says, but you can’t avoid the Jesus it portrays. Friends have seen it, and said almost everyone was crying and the cinema was silent as [...]

Out of the mouths of babes…

March 27, 2004

Life is so simple for a five year old boy. My son Henry quite seriously stated to me the other day that I was the strongest person in the whole world except for God. Wheter that has anything to do with the fact that I am the only one he is allowed to play fight [...]

Meditation Vs Prayer

March 27, 2004

A reader of my blog wrote Dr. Warnock, I was hoping you might be able to give me a little insight into a difficult issue my wife is facing at work. She enjoys her job, though the atmosphere of the place has a distinct New Age flavor (aroma therapy, soothing music, etc.). She is, of [...]

To negotiate or to Kill?

March 25, 2004

In the light of our transatlantic spat over the death of a man in a wheelchair, I found it interesting to note that on the same day that Tony Blair met Gaddafi in a tent, I heard on the radio (but now cannot confirm on the net) an American apparently testified to the 911 commission [...]

March 24, 2004

I am sorry to so bang on about this, and sooner or later no doubt I will just ‘blog on’, but really you guys. I thought that we stood for good, justice and the American way. Since when does that involve cold blooded murder of your enemy without even giving them a chance to surrender? [...]

March 23, 2004

The British newspaper, The Telegraph in a peice examining the strategy of killing Yassin states: “The fact that this paraplegic was killed as he returned from religious observance, on a route he used daily, will give Israel’s friends pause for concern. We live in a world where image counts for a lot. His wheelchair blown [...]

Was I "Not seeing the funny side"

March 23, 2004

Over at Connexion I was glad to see I wasnt the ONLY one who posted their belief that Josh was being inappropriate, and more seriously the impression (since corrected by Josh) that he was rejoicing over a death. But I am surprised by the request for both me and theconnexion to ‘correct’ our posts. Actually [...]
