Traditional Anglican ping, continued in memory of its founder Arlin Adams.

FReepmail sionnsar if you want on or off this moderately high-volume ping list (typically 3-7 pings/day).
This list is pinged by sionnsar and newheart.

Remember this:

"It is easy to be a madman: it is easy to be a heretic."

especially today in so much of Western Christianity:

“The poison of heresy is not too dangerous when it is preached only from outside the Church. Many times more perilous is that poison which is gradually introduced into the organism in larger and larger doses by those who, in virtue of their position, should not be poisoners but spiritual physicians.” Metropolitan Philaret

You know what, sionnsar, I think many Westerners are, at base, afraid to be Christians. They are afraid someone will think they are weird. And by the world's standards, we are weird. Real Christianity asks a lot of individuals, a lot they don't want to give or have the strength, they think, to undertake.
