This week, I have received a few ANONYMOUS comments on this blog which have called into question my ministry as a Pastor because of my perceived positions on certain issues.
Apart from the license that the use of ANONYMITY provides those who wish to attack fellow Christians, I'm troubled that there are some within the Christian community who believe that unless you see the world EXACTLY as they do, that you are somehow underserving of the name Christian, much less the ministry of Pastor.
Accept this entry as a plea to return to the spirit expressed in this quotation from St. Augustine, quoted at the start of Vatican II by John XXIII...
May the sarcastic takeoff on the famous hymn, a takeoff coined by Robert McAfee Brown, prove NOT to be real within the Christian world:
WE ARE ALL DIVIDED, NOT ONE BODY WE
SOME LACK FAITH AND OTHERS HOPE AND ALL LACK CHARITY
ONWARD, CHRISTIAN SOLDIERS.......

People are funny! I think many times what they really wish for is justice for every one else but charity for themselves
Sorry instead of "they" and "themselves" in my previous blog I really should have included myself in that collective too and used "we" and "ourselves"
Count me in the we as well.......It's shared humanity!
