By Dale, on July 6th, 2010% Check out (and contribute to!?) the online, editable, book (‘Not Only A Father‘) by Tim Bulkeley about gender language and God.
Yes – editable.
This is a new kind of book. A book you discuss with others, and with the author, as you read. It may even be edited and rewritten as a result of your comments.

Thanks to a funky plugin3, I can now make my nuances and additions viewable by hovering or clicking on the footnote number4 – all without breaking the flow of thought.5

By Dale, on June 25th, 2010% I’ve been getting the site back to something of the look it had on the old Atahualpa version, and adding little bits and pieces. Comments/suggestions welcome.
I’m also adding (soon) a page where I’ll make some of my music available – eek!
By Dale, on June 22nd, 2010% as you’ll have seen, i’ve updated my theme – it’ll take a bit of jiggling (when I get time here/there) to get it where I want it… but the new version of atahualpa has a lot of theme options!

Two songs from Johnny Cash’s album, American IV, contrast a repentant person with an unrepentant person. The contrast is striking – between the person who ‘hangs his head’ (eventually in prayerful repentance in the last verse) and the person who ‘damns’ everyone (or more particularly, their eyes!).

By Dale, on April 15th, 2010% Some scattered, quick thoughts about miracles, in passing reflection (all I’ve got time for at the moment) on some recent posts by Damian and Glenn.

By Dale, on April 12th, 2010% One of my favourite blogs I follow is ‘Just Thomism‘ by James Chastek (who has no idea who I am, I presume, apart from the odd comment here/there).
