S.M. Hutchens on losing one’s faith: “Experienced pastors, when faced with students who ‘lose their faith’ at college, do not begin to argue back with them on matters philosophical or theological. They inquire into ‘lifestyle’ issues in the attempt to ascertain whether there is a release to be gained from overthrowing the faith in which they were raised. There usually is.”

In much more serious news, The Headmistress at The Common Room has been blogging the heck out of the travesty of justice that is taking place in my old hometown of San Angelo, Texas.

CPS says they are, too, but I don’t believe it.
Gracious Hospitality collects Teatime Recipes this week. I’m planning to host a book club tea at my house soon, so I will definitely be looking over these recipes. There’s a linky there to add a link to your favorite recipe, too.
This collection of links was all over the map from the mundane to the silly to the serious and discerning. Take it for what it’s worth, and don’t get stuck popping the virtual bubble wrap for too long.
Yes, we did see C.S. Lewis in the desert, where she found a metal tag with the Dharma logo next to a polar bear skeleton. I think that’s what I remember anyway, but my memory’s not quite what it used to be. 🙂
Okay, I had to come back up to say how incredibly coincidental it is that one of my “captcha” words that I have to type in is “polar.”
