Gallican Anglican Eastern: December 2009
http://gallicananglican.blogspot.com/2009_12_01_archive.html
Tuesday, December 29, 2009. Sign of the Times. But we are not too sure about the real thing. You know what I mean, incarnations, resurrections, ascensions - stuff like that. In fact, we have grown beyond such charmingly mythological stuff. And it's not always that charming either, is it? Think of the wars, the inquisition, the intolerance, the oppression of women. Religion clearly turns good people bad - especially when they actually believe in it. Monday, December 28, 2009. Only God will do. View my com...

Gallican Anglican Eastern: August 2009
http://gallicananglican.blogspot.com/2009_08_01_archive.html
Saturday, August 29, 2009. God could do it, it was fitting that he did it, and therefore he did it). But did God agree with Duns Scotus, or was the latter assuming too much? Pun intended, I fear.). I believe that the Mother of God reigns in glory, that she appeared to such saints as Seraphim of Sarov, and that by the Holy Spirit (as St Silouan of tne Holy Mountain says) she sees us and hears our prayers. However, I also believe (with Lossky - humbly, I might say! Thursday, August 27, 2009. In my childhoo...

Gallican Anglican Eastern: May 2010
http://gallicananglican.blogspot.com/2010_05_01_archive.html
Tuesday, May 25, 2010. Just a few days ago, travelling along Portsmouth Drive, I was startled to come across some $40,000 worth of petrified human dentition. Four very large molars, chiselled out of Oamaru stone, now hog what used to be a very attractive view down the harbour. And we paid for them. Now why did we do that? Well, we did that because we believe in art, indeed we believe in public. When I say we,. Called Notre Dame de Condom, but that is hardly the same thing, as you will no doubt agree.

Gallican Anglican Eastern: March 2010
http://gallicananglican.blogspot.com/2010_03_01_archive.html
Thursday, March 11, 2010. And at those Feet. A good few years ago now I sat at the feet of the Dalai Lama in the Town Hall during what I think must have been his first visit to Dunedin. Like most of the other people who virtually filled the hall, I don't think I followed His Holiness' line of thought as closely as I perhaps should have done, but one thing was as clear as a bell. According to the Dharma,. All sentient beings would eventual reach eternal bliss. Ah yes, but what about freewill? Speaking per...

Gallican Anglican Eastern: February 2010
http://gallicananglican.blogspot.com/2010_02_01_archive.html
Thursday, February 25, 2010. Having it both ways. Today is the anniversary of the papal bull Regnans in excelsis. Published in 1570 announcing Pope St Pius V's deposition of Queen Elizabeth I from her royal throne and his call to her subjects to abandon both their sovereign and the spiritual leadership of the 'lewd preachers and ministers of impiety' whom she had planted in the Lord's Vineyard. With friends like this . . . Tuesday, February 09, 2010. Perhaps you were put off by Professor J.P. Ken...That ...

Gallican Anglican Eastern: Divine Suitability
http://gallicananglican.blogspot.com/2013/11/divine-suitability.html
Wednesday, November 27, 2013. Not long ago the American scientist Lawrence Krauss (often to be seen on television) gave a lecture in Australia in which he proclaimed God to be entirely unnecessary. The universe could come into existence without a cause because subatomic particles do so all the time - if only for a mere nanosecond or so. Even for Christians this sort of thing is a great problem. They often have very firm ideas of the way God should behave even while they accept his omnipotence. Our doubts...

Gallican Anglican Eastern: Strategy and Tactics
http://gallicananglican.blogspot.com/2013/11/strategy-and-tactics.html
Wednesday, November 27, 2013. So the Roman Pontiff is retiring. I must say that I admire him for his decision not to put us through a repeat of his predecessor's protracted and very public death-throes. I am also grateful to him for his determination to restore the balance of the Roman rite, even although that doesn't effect me personally. But aren't de facto. Relationships more harmful to society - especially to children? And what about the soaring rate of divorce? Surely it is divorce. Know exactly wha...

Gallican Anglican Eastern: November 2009
http://gallicananglican.blogspot.com/2009_11_01_archive.html
Thursday, November 26, 2009. Neither here nor there. Allow me to come out of the closet. I am a member of Forward in Faith. In favour of the innovators has been both dishonest and unjust - and much, much too soon. Hence my decision to join those who are now probably just tilting at windmills - at least where Anglicanism in the western world is concerned. But lost causes often have a fine air of tragic inevitability about them. However, as my copies of New Directions. This response has been little short o...
