Noted This Week

WHENEVER WE LEARN about a web site that we haven't previously listed, we 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
Keeping Score: Alister McGrath writes for the Times (London). 'The threat of social fragmentation is easily worsened if interest groups, secular or religious, lash out against others when justifying themselves. A rhetoric of dismissal and ridicule plays well to a populist gallery. Yet a robust civil society is fostered by a culture of respect and civility rather than derision and censure.'

Why George Herbert must die: Justin Anthony-Lewis writes for the Guardian (London). 'Like the Zen Master, if we meet George Herbert on the road, we must kill him.'

Worth Noting
Look Who's a Believer Now: Timothy Larsen writes for the Wall Street Journal (New York) on A. N. Wilson's recent return to Christian faith. 'As is the case with Mr. Wilson, intellectuals often pursue long, drawn-out love affairs with Christian thought. Next time you hear someone fume that God is the most contemptible being who never existed, keep in mind that you just might be watching the first act of a divine romantic comedy.'

Michael Ramsey Prize for Theological Writing 2009: This year's winner is Richard Bauckham for Jesus and the Eyewitnesses: The Gospels as Eyewitness Testimony. The Church Times (London) has reviewed titles nominated for this prize.
