Worth
Noting
Apostates
for Evensong: Dick Gross, writing as 'Godless Gross', expounds
the joys of evensong at an Australian cathedral and wonders if the
institution of evensong is damaged because 'an incorrigible atheist
loves it'.
Keep
the faith: In The Spectator, Tom Wright considers how the Church
of England can – and will – endure.
The National Cathedral is shaken, and so am I:
Ellen Painter Dollar writes for Daily Episcopalian.
'Seeing the towers that I gazed on from my little third-floor
bedroom so badly shaken has left me shaken.'
No earthquake: John Allen writes for National Catholic Reporter. 'Today, the ordinariate has been established in England and Wales, with some 1,000 laity and 64 clergy scattered across 27 different communities. Whatever one makes of it, there's scant evidence of a revolution.'
