![]() | You scored as Stan Marsh, You're Stan Marsh! Probably the sanest of the group, you're the mastermind behind the good plans and can easily resolve problems. To you love is amazing, and you're probably already in it. You can be a smart ass and don't have a problem saying what's on your mind. And you're probably an activist. Dude, this is pretty fucked up right here.

south park?
could not resist twisted soul that I am
wedding
I officiated at a wedding on Friday! I've been ordained since 1999, and this is the first wedding I have done. It was rather cool, I almost started crying myself while reading from first Corinthians. Putting the brief service together and then reading the words caused me to reflect on my own less than perfect behavior in my marriage.
Anyway, after all these years doing church work I actually feel like a real pastor. How weird is that?

Meditation
John 1:1, 14 NRSV
1 In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. .... 14 And the Word became flesh and lived among us,
I have read this many times over the years, now I see it in a different light.
Grace and peace to all

I found this on Dave Walker's cartoon blog. It is a good visual of where I have been and where I am now.

violence
Violence begets violence, I am extremely saddened by todays violence in Virginia. I pray for all touched by this savage act.
I say the following not to be casual about the murder of anyone, but to be serious about all murder
Today I read a blurb about Bush's "outrage" at the violence on the Virginia Tech Campus....
In my mailbox was a piece about 57 people slaughtered in Iraq on Saturday!! Where is the outrage about that? A life is a life Mr. Bush You are responsible for all of the deaths in Iraq, and I have to wonder does your cavalier approach to violence somehow allow this kind of thing to happen.......

Resurection cats and friends
Alleluia Christ is risen!!!
I am grateful for the resurrection, for the hope that it brings. When every place I look is dark and all seems lost, in the resurrection there is hope.
Is it a fact? Did it happen exactly as we have been told? I don't know. Is it truth? Yes!
Today my friend Michelle's cat Trouvee, started eating. Trouvee was ill and unable to eat, Michelle has been tube feeding her for weeks, today she ate.
Today I heard about a young woman, a teenager, who wrote a book for children about the disparity between the haves and the have nots.
Today a friend who has MS and was severely anemic was released from the hospital, her strength renewed.
It has been a difficult holy week for me, in the past it was business as usual teach people about the atonement how lucky we are blah blah blah.....This year it was real, I wept, I yelled and shared in the suffering of Christ, which is what I prayed for. Silly me...god always answers
Christ is risen indeed! Alleluia Alleluia

Greetings
After ranting on the atonement let me introduce myself..... I am a mother a nurse and a pastor. After many years in the charismatic/evangelical tradition I made the break. My reasons for leaving are many including but not limited to: the religious right, peace and social justice.
I am a member of The Lindisfarne Community a new monastic community based in Ithaca New York, we are a community in the "broadly Anglican Celtic tradition" to quote our Bishop Abbot Andy. I was ordained a priest 2 years ago. My life consists of trying to balance work rest prayer and study.... I struggle to be the same all week as I am on sunday right now that just isn't happening. Or maybe it is, I've been grouchy to everyone all week.....So I'm human
Currently I am studying ethics through the Lindisfarne School of Theology. I live in California so we have class via IM and iChat.
I'm reading "The Last Week" by John Dominic Crossan and Marcus Borg.
I am listening to protest music on my ipod
