What's New This Week

ALL THE NEW URLS we receive each week are here. We list two (sometimes three) weeks' worth, cycling the old ones off each week. As they disappear from this page, you'll find the links moved to their natural home categories in our resource pages.

If you can't find something that was once here, you can look in our archives or try the AO search engine. It searches our entire site, and it can also search all of the sites to which we link.

Worth Noting

It's time for another reformation: Theo Hobson, writing in The Guardian, argues that 'after the blip of Carey, the Church of England is resuming the course it has been tacitly pursuing for decades, and with new determination'

Pope on a slope: Michael Bronski, writing in the Boston Phoenix, asserts that the papacy has lost its moral authority and asks whether the new Archbishop of Canterbury could become the new voice of Christendom.

The view from above: Tom Bentley, writing in The Observer about Rowan Williams, suggests that no one can live up to the conflicting demands we make of our leaders today.

Why we need heaven (and hell, too): Newsweek, the US weekly newsmagazine, tackles a complex subject in its cover story, wondering 'How can the promise of paradise inspire both good and evil?'
