Inter-post discussion
So, I am working on the next post dealing with baptism. It's taking a bit of time as I want to make it good and consistent with what I put out there last time... the reaction was good, for the most part. I had quite few different traditions talk to me about it and all felt that it was a fair(er) treatment than what we have seen in other places. I must keep in mind that we are the whole body, all of us together. I am commited to you guys, even the fundies and the crazy-ass liberals. We're saved together. Anyways, I just wanted to let you know I'm alive and writing. Just busy. Look for the new post up in a couple days. Until then, I'll give you all some links so you can see what's happening in the blog-world:
I got a nice formal introduction over at BrianLovesYou.Com. Brian returned the love which I gave him earlier in the form of an introduction. All new readers from over that way, welcome! Be sure to leave your name and address so I can keep up with you!!
(And Kyle is a nerd. A white nerd with glasses.)
+Alan has some good things for *all* of us to be meditating on in the coming weeks. Will we love someone who is not yet good? Many of us will provide an argument concerning abortion saying that aalthough the infant has not yet breathed it first breath it has all the abilities in developement to do so and to deny that basic right of life is inherently wrong. We see this as a good consistent argument and don't hesitate to use it in a variety of settings. But will we say the same thing for a grown person? Can we love someone who has all the abilites to be good and lovable but just isn't there yet? It seems that to be consistent in our ethic that is a requirement. Anyways... go read the post.
Scot Mcknight gives those of us who find sleep to be rather elusive some tips for a more satisified rest.
That's all.

New look = good.
I just got baptized like 2 weeks ago. I haven't read your other post on baptism yet, but will check it out. Sho. Write the other one pronto.
I didn't read Alan's post you referenced yet either. I'm a slacker, what can i say? But i guess we better love folks who are not good. I am not good, and there are some folks who love me. How would I have known goodness unless i was shown?
Mike,
I thought you had given up on the blog-o-sphere. Good to see that's not the case. I heard you were moving back to Louisville. I have a feeling I will be seeing much of you during your second round at Life in Louisville.
