Blogito ergo sum! Actually, as N.T. Wright averred, "'Amor, ergo sum:' I am loved, therefore I am." Among other things, I am a Roman Catholic deacon. This is a public cyberspace in which I seek to foster Christian discipleship in the late modern milieu in the diakonia of koinonia and in the recognition that "the Eucharist is the only place of resistance to annihilation of the human subject."

"There's a time device inside of me..."
The Kinks' Destroyer is this week's Friday traditio. Why? Because I heard it on the radio this week and remembered what a strange and catchy song it is, the sequel to Lola. I remember I went through a Kinks phase way back in the early '80s. Remember friends, "it's a mixed up, muddled up, shook up world," including Lola.
By way of Quaerere Deum "Grace is a gift, and it is not given for innocence nor withheld for sin" from The Cloud of Unknowing.
