The Rector does not maintain a "blog" whereby to draw attention to himself and cultivate celebrity status, real or imagined, in cyberspace. Nor does he seek to inflict his transient ruminations on posterity, partly because he does not believe they would or should be of any interest to anyone, and partly because he is not given to idle cogitation when in the presence of his computer. However, on such occasions as he produces substantial and informed written contributions to the discussion of issues of enduring importance to the life of the Church, and to the role of the Church in society, and if these contributions are not confidential or in any way embargoed, the relevant documents may be posted here.
