There are quite a lot of things you need to plan when you get married. Some people (particularly but not exclusively wealthy Americans) even hire wedding planners to help them plan. Many of my friends told me that it would be an epic task to plan the wedding, but so far it's not really worked out like that. I think I'm a particularly good planner, and I'm determined to get most things done well in...

I went to a wedding fair a couple of weeks ago. It was much as I expected - lots of pretty things I couldn't afford (dresses, flowers, hats, cars) and some I wasn't really interested in (chair covers, make-up artists, John Cleese impersonations). I went with some friends: J, who's recently married, E, who's getting married in December and L, my bridesmaid, mostly for the fun of it and to look for ideas...

Link roundup and browser tab closing time... Expel the evildoer from among you If you're not reading back over my old entries (why not? I used to be much better before I jumped the shark), you might not have noticed that there was some LJ drama over the last one . robhu conclusively won the debate on whether complementarianism is sexist by the cunning ploy of banning me from commenting...

She doesn't seem to approve, and spends much of the article telling us how good Christian summer camps are, before giving way to Celestine Heaton...

emperor has made an interesting post (with even more interesting comments) about the whole Global Anglican Futures CONference (GAFCON) / Fellowship of Confessing Anglicans (FCA) thing happening at the moment. This is big news at the moment to Anglicans because of decisions made by the the official American arm of Anglicanism . There's some analysis by Bishop Tom Wright as well. Cross...

ok, enough discussing of sex and religion! that's another couple of hours of my day taken up with this ~shakes fist at interesting people~ XD right, i need sleep, so i'm gonna butt out of comments now, but i'd like to say thanks to the folks who commented on my last couple of posts - i appreciate hearing different opinions on the things i posted about ^_^ i don't profess to be at all learned about...

Ken again Andrew Brown went to the lecture on God and evolution by Ken Miller , the one which robhu mentioned in the comments last time. Brown was impressed by Miller. I commented using the same arguments as my previous posting. The wonderful thing about standards is In other news, top geneticist Francis Collins has started his own Christian apologetics site, Biologos.org...
