I am sure it has become obvious to readers that I am using my blog as a substitute for talk therapy to address my mild depression. I was alerted to the phrase (but it was familiar to me beforehand) when I read an article in the UK Guardian newspaper about doctors beginning to use ECT...
I need to finish what I have been saying about my recent excursions into Roman Catholicism, but before I do I want to say something about my version of anarchism, which I associate with my version of Christian Anarchism. Browsing the Christian Anarchism websites I am not very impressed with many...
If I rant on this could turn out to be a long entry, but I am in some physical pain with my chronic wound on my ankle (seven years now with only a small improvement, in spite of the marvelous work my wife does in dressing it three times per week), and writing here is talk therapy for me to...
OK, as a person interested in the tenets of Christian Anarchism I want to write about what I have discerned, rightly or wrongly, about transubstantiation.
Apparently it is more a philosophical term than a theological term, but the RC Church deliberately promotes this term as a theological...
Thank you to all readers of the letters I wrote whilst in hospital. I continue now with accounts of my reactions to my everyday experiences.
Recently I was made aware of Carlo Acutis and was very disappointed with myself for not having heard of him before. I have searched the Internet for some...
This is my seventh and final letter which I wrote whilst in hospital. I was discharged late in 2018 and have been at home ever since, nursing the chronic wound on my ankle which is dressed three times per week by my marvelous wife. My doctor visits once per month to inspect the wound and to...
The more I read into Christian Anarchism the more I like it. I have already referred to the problem of being known as one, but the following thread is very informative, and wayfaring man in Post 3 gives Scriptural references to the problem.
Christian Anarchism
My next entry will be my seventh...
I am coming in quite early with posting my sixth letter which I wrote whilst in hospital. Sometimes I feel anxious to pursue my proselytizing (Oh dear, I hope not!!) of Christian Anarchism. Therefore I want to get the full seven letters out of the way for people to read. I thank everyone again...
I am very appreciative of those of you who have read my entries so far, especially my letters which I wrote whilst I was in hospital. I entitled this blog as Christian Anarchism, there are problems with that (my wife hates the idea of anarchy!), but I am asking now if there are any of you who...
My fourth letter describes the reasons for my stay in hospital. Lying on my back with my foot up resting my chronic wound, with my mind active, my motive for writing these letters was certainly to give me something to do. I am lucky and thank God for the ability to do so, noticing the conditions...
A New World Order / Total Onslaught - Walter Veith
I have just watched one of Professor Veith's lectures on the conspiracy theories attached to a New World Order, and I am going to blog about my Christian anarchist response. To begin I felt that watching it was a complete waste of my time, not...
It seems my blog entries are mostly concerned with Seventh Day Adventism, and this is because I am married to a Barbadian and here in Barbados most of my wife's family are Adventists. When I was in hospital a niece gave me the SDA Quarterly "Oneness in Christ" which moved me to write the...
Today, talking with a nephew who is a stalwart SDA member, I was telling him about my blog here and if he wished to comment on it he would have to open an account with christianforums.com and agree to his support of the Nicene Creed. After a lifetime with the SDA and claiming to be a Christian...
Thank you for the interest shown, to those of you who are reading these entries. So here is my second letter written whilst I was in hospital.
A Second Letter from Hospital.
I am arriving at a point in my letters where it appears we do not have to believe in the existence of God to achieve a...
My stay in hospital was for eight weeks (I think!), late in 2018. I began to write to fill in the time, so here I go with the first of seven essays.
A First Letter From Hospital.
Lying in bed in hospital, wondering what God's plans are for me, praying to Him and asking Him about His plans if He...
I do not want to abandon my suggestion that my entries will be about my life experiences. But especially concerning my teaching career, I have realised that they could become very personal and I might therefore be identified by long-ago colleagues, if they are still alive.
Late in 2018 I was in...
Continuing my decision to write entries for my blog, entitled Christian anarchism, on my own experiences in my life as, first an anarchist, then a Christian, and now a Christian anarchist, I must immediately point out that my entries will not be based chronologically on experiences throughout my...
Now that I have decided to avoid proselytising, for myself at any rate, being an anarchist I cannot speak for other anarchists, I have now to think about what I will be writing in my blog entitled Christian Anarchism.
It has been suggested that writing about my own experiences in dealing with...
As I understand and have experienced, all mainstream Christian denominations, sects and cults proselytise, that is the ministers preach, the Church literature proliferates, attendance at services is a given, and the music and the architecture give glory to God. Last but not least, the Bible...
I am not sure what I am doing here in my first blog but moderators can put me right.
In my description of my first blog I said I would be proselytising about Christian Anarchism. I have received 28 views so far.
But do I really want to proselytise as that is what all Christian denominations...
