Noted This Week

WHENEVER WE LEARN about a web site that we haven't previously listed, we'll note it here. Sometimes such sites are brand new and sometimes they have been around for a while without our having noticed. We list two 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. We do not mention on this page remakes of sites that are already in our listings.

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. If you still can't find it, please let us know.

If you would like your website listed at Anglicans Online, please use this form to tell us about it.

Worth Noting
High Profile: 'Lauded by some and lambasted by others, Archbishop Peter Akinola wields influence far outside his Anglican province of Nigeria. Third Way found him grounded in a hotel near Heathrow Airport.' This important interview opens with the following question: 'In 2006 and 2007, Time listed you as one of the 100 most influential people in the world. How do you reconcile the status of a primate in the Anglican Communion with the call to humility and servanthood?'

On the origin of Darwin: 'As the world of science prepares to celebrate the bicentenary of the birth of Charles Darwin, and the 150th anniversary of the publication of the seminal 'On the Origin of Species', an opportunity arises to look back on the relationship between Darwin, his supporters and the Christian Church.' A new section of the Church of England's website.

In May 1555 a broadsheet was printed in Rome that depicted the suffering and executions of the Carthusian monks of the London Charterhouse, who had been put to death 20 years earlier by Henry VIII. This little-known work had a profound influence on later images of Roman Catholic martyrdom, as well as on successive generations of English Roman Catholics.
