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."

"You've been trying to reach me"
I just recently discovered a very good band from the U.K., Bloc Party (I am not as quick on the up-take as I used to be when it comes to these things). For the past week or so I have really been enjoying their music, which is why their song "Modern Love" is our Friday traditio today. To be honest, one of the main reasons Bloc Party's music really resonates with me is that they remind me more than a little of Joy Division.
To be lost in the forest/To be cut adrift/You've been trying to reach me/You bought me a book/To be lost in the forest/To be cut adrift
