I've not been participating in Three Weeks For Dreamwidth, because I couldn't think of anything sensible to do, but it occurs to me I could do a Frequently (Or Not So Frequently) Asked Questions About Anglicanism/ the Church thing. Which may not actually meet with all that much interest, but I do actually know about it... It would also be a rather good exercise for me, as, while I know intellectually that the Church is a pretty strange and at times esoteric world of its own, I have a tendency to think it's normal.*
So: the way a FONSNAQ works is simple: you leave me questions/ prompts, and I respond to them. So if you're dying to know... oh, I don't know. What an ordinand does all day (when not faffing about on the internet). How people get to be priests. Why the Royal Wedding looked the way it did. What vicars actually do. What 'tat' is, and why Anglo-Catholics won't shut up about it.
... but I'm sure you'd think of better questions, anyway. Have at it - any question/ prompt, however serious or silly, welcome.
(Anyone have any suggestions for comms that might be interested in a link?)
* To quote Fr Gandalf, a wise priest of my acquaintance, "What you must never forget, Tree, is that the church does some very peculiar things to some people."
