Jan. 16th, 2009 09:23 pm- 21:58 The med. church took Job 41:22 as prophecy that miracles would cease before the coming of Antichrist. Odd, but more plausible than Rapture? #
- 23:10 Excellent speech by Gene Robinson on role of the church: tinyurl.com/9qtr49 #
- 00:36 @ParrotKnight I am not eating any Mars bar which has life on it (or anything given away by a Murdoch paper, come to that.) #
- 08:50 @Sammee42 They say "God probably doesn't exist. Now stop worrying and enjoy your life." Which is rather patronising, all things considered. #
- 09:01 ΒΆ - this sign is called a pilcrow, apparently. Hurrah for obscure new words! #
- 09:56 Oh good; guest night falls just outside Lent. #
- 10:03 Which idiot scheduled a seminar on Richard Rolle against one on late mediaeval church reform? Bah - I'd have gone to both.... #
- 10:16 Also, the Aquinas colloquium on God and the Cosmos is the same day as the workshop on Dorothea von Montau - but I suspect that only I care! #
- 11:22 Inadvertently tried to send my desktop as an attachment. Mail gives you a pretty graphic for it, and everything... #
- 11:41 The index to E Duffy, 'The Stripping of the Altars' includes the entry 'pilgrimage badges, unwisdom of swallowing'. Sound advice, but why? #
- 11:43 Oh - because a child choked on one and was miraculously rescued by Henry VI (so the parents hung it over Henry's tomb). Snarky indexes ftw! #
- 17:52 Heh! latest chapter now only needs a conclusion. And ... er, the footnotes need sorted, and it needs to be shortened, but I'm still happy! #
