The blog of the Ancient Mariner: It worries me

It worries me

It worries me a little to be discussing things with those I know to be more intelligent/better educated than me.

It worries me when those things are of life-changing importance.

It worries me most when I *know* inside that some of those with greater intelligence and training are *wrong* about key things, but I can't say exactly why or how.

Does anyone else out there wonder how it is that HUGE numbers of people are apparently lead by the nose down dark alleys and into bad places, probably in all sincerity.

Can I change the world?

Play nice - I will delete anything I don't want associated with this blog and I will delete anonymous comments.

Why post emergent?

Why not?

Some years ago I wrote about things relating to church I thought were important then and probably still do to an extent. So many of us want to make sure stuff is right, trying to differentiate ourselves, yet also often miss the more important stuff, the bigger picture.

I watch various people doing church in different ways and wonder how much God is concerned about our 'important' bits of theology or stances we take. The church stream I was once so pleased to be part of is starting to look like every other church to me, so maybe it's time I had a little humility instead of pride at being different.
