Essays
What We Think We Are Doing: 'Wherever one is on the spectrum of opinion, to have no theology for full inclusion, while more or less practicing it, is worse than having bad theology. Bad theology cries out for better theology. No theology, however, calls the whole enterprise into question.' An essay by Bishop Pierre Whalon.
