Like last year, I looked back over this past year and picked a post for each month, based on highly subjective criteria, that I think most significant. I welcome observations by readers on their favorite posts as a way of gauging what, if any, of these words matter or mean anything to anyone else. I found it heartening that none of my political posts made my own cut! I do not know how much I will post between now and the new year, some, but probably not a lot. So, I thought I'd do this now. This year's 368 (so far) posts falls far short, thankfully, of last year's 427. 2008 marked my second full year (January-December) of blogging. This is my blog's 978th post.
January: St. Paul and us: The event of an encounter along the way
February: Feelings re-visited
March: On being "the forgiven"
April: Living lives of love
May: Life as dirty joke: one post-feminist perspective
June: Prophets
July: Humanae Vitae turns 40
August: Giussani on melancholy
September: Obedience
October: True education starts from a positive hypothesis
November: Starting from a positive hypothesis: marriage is indissoluble
December: A fundamental question
I also want to remember Seattle Beginning Day: An event that becomes an encounter over on Is It Possible?.
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."

Is the SLC bishop aware of this (http://orthometer.blogspot.com/ exorcizing the "Spirit of Vatican 2" since 1994)blog?
ReplyDeleteA priest must push people to love and not to hate.
I'm flabbergasted by this blog, how can the bishop allow it?
I am not trying to be dismissive when I ask, have you expressed your concern in a comment on that blog?
