Something is stirring in the undergrowth on the tangled bank...
You'll find my evolving thoughts here, but not those of my employer, and certainly not any medical advice...
In these straitened economic times, who *pays* for theology as an academic discipline (cough cough)? I sure hope it ain't the tax payer. Do you think if I proposed to Sammy Wilson that he should require an audit of all the Departments in relation to any funding that goes to religious groups or pseudologies? How much do we as taxpayers pay, say, for the upkeep of Union Theological College, that hotbed of creationism and cabbage?
I seen a photo of an anti-papal protester holding a placard that said - "drop the filioque!"
ReplyDeleteWhen the Theology post-grads take to the streets like this, you know that anarchy cannot be far behind!
