Now what…
Well, now that AI is done, I guess it’s time to find something else to generate at least two posts a week about, eh? There should be some spores that I can cultivate into semi-coherent, quasi-interesting verbiage. If nothing else, I can at at least wax self-indulgent…
I’ve actually been spending more time over at the ALPB Forum discussion board. It’s a pan-Lutheran discussion forum that runs the gamut from far “left” ELCA folks to far “right” LCMS folks, with everyone in between, including a sprinkling of non-Lutheran thought from Canterbury, Rome, Constantinople, & Geneva. It’s quite the fascinating mixture. On the LCMS front, it’s quite interesting to enter into discussions — sometimes substantive, sometimes not — with folks as diverse (politically and theologically) as Atlantic District President Dave Benke, Concordia Publishing House Publisher Rev. Paul McCain, & frequent guest on the late great Issues, Etc., Pastor William Weedon, to name but three names that will probably be recognized by readers here.
The range and tenor of discussions at the ALPB Forum can be wide, disheartening, infuriating, and frustratingly disjointed; however, it can also be refreshing, encouraging, and edifying. The ebb and flow of the discussion threads can be almost addictive, in a way that the blogosphere is hard-pressed to replicate (although certain blogs like Augsburg1530 come close…).
Anyway, if anyone has been wondering why I haven’t been posting quite as much about the theological battles raging within Mother Missouri, this is largely why - I’ve been spending my thought cycles elsewhere. And while folks like Fr. Weedon can double-dip, blogging and posting at ALPB, I just haven’t had that kind of energy or willpower. Now that AI is over, perhaps I’ll find a way…
