Paper, pacifism and Quaker Idol (Links)
-
Have any of you taken or taught a writing class recently? Do you recommend a particular school or type of class? Or a book on the subject?
-
I just got done with my small group discussion session for my "War & Christian Conscience" class. In my discussion group, I'm the only pacifist, or at least the only pacifist who talks.
-
Almost immediately, I regreted putting it the way I did, and the reason why came up a few minutes later when another Friend, a noted Quaker historian and writer, admitted to sometimes making an idol out his Quakerism instead of worshiping the Living God.
-
If I don't trust my Friend, then I won't trust her initiative and I will resist her ideas. Trust is the trust we give the Holy Spirit, the trust we give to Jesus, the trust of handing our will and our lives over to a power greater than ourselves.
