That not much had changed by 1547 was indicated by Henry VIII’s own will. In his last will and testament made on 30. December, 1546 asked that ‘an altar shall be furnished for the saying of daily masses while the world shall endure’. London: Macmillan, 1896), p. 328-9.

Theology Ethics Literature Politics. Friday, March 21, 2014. Freedom of the will. How can they be held responsible for their intentions and their actions if they are not made freely? We are not merely ‘free to choose’, but obliged to be free, to understand and enact our lives in terms of choice under conditions that systematically limit the capacities of so many to shape their own destiny. The second problem is theological and moral, and is most vehemently expressed by Martin Luther in his debate with Er...

Theology Ethics Literature Politics. Saturday, March 30, 2013. Safe in the arms of Jesus. Ma'afu Kefu lay hard up against the headstone of Muriel Firmage, 1837-41 - safe in the arms of Jesus. The warm and slightly stale air of the Sydney morning coughed gently over the unmown spider grass. The blowflies circled each other with no obvious intent. A magpie hopped onto the garbage bin at the side of the church and jabbed half-heartedly at the black plastic bag overflowing the rim. Links to this post. Most f...

Theology Ethics Literature Politics. Tuesday, October 16, 2012. III A short theology of taxonomy. I have thus far argued for that genre is a ‘theological’ notion in so far as it perpetuates a certain mythoi. The problem comes with the emergence of a new way of thinking about life forms themselves – the obvious case being Darwin’s Origin of Species. Need a commentator, esp Foucault).

Theology Ethics Literature Politics. Wednesday, February 27, 2013. The Hymn of the Great Mystery -1 Tim 3:16. What good, then, is Christian theology? Be a principled pragmatist, but don’t ever let your principles too close to your practice… principles only get in the way after all. And today’s third great hymn, from 1 Timothy 3:16 is planted by Paul right in the centre of his first letter to Timothy, in the midst of his descriptions of the qualities of the various orders of ministry. To him. The fear...

Theology Ethics Literature Politics. Monday, April 20, 2015. Yoga and the Christian. NB - some readers have bee directed here by Peter Fitzsimons and others. It should be clear from a careful reading of this long paper (and not just the intro) that I make the case that is the OPPOSITE of the quote from Mark Driscoll with which it opens. Peter, embarrassingly, didn't bother to read the paper before accusing me of holding positions that I don't hold. Yoga and its Christian critics. Mohler notes that that y...
