UPDATE: November 17, 2016. Someone has posted a whole bunch of ads for porn in the comments. As a consequence, I have turned comment moderation on. I don't join in the blanket condemnation of porn that many other Catholics do but I must say that it is a sign of something that so many people in that industry are vile creeps.
... I've been posting here less and less.
This blog helped me achieve exactly what I hoped it would achieve. It gave me a place where I could work out some thoughts in public. A place where I could just go ahead and say things I believed—even if it turned out that I later decided I didn't believe them anymore. Having served that purpose, I find I have less and less need for it.
I'm not going to close it down. I may still find things I want to post and I will do my best to respond to comments and criticisms. I am grateful to the many people who have come here and read my posts and especially to those who have commented and held me accountable by challenging me.
Thank you all and I hope and pray that 2016 is a better year for the world than 2015 was.

Hi Jules, I never left comments on your blog but I looked forward to it every day. I just wanted to let you know that I miss it. I hope you are doing well now.
ReplyDeleteThank you. Having this blog was a very rewarding experience for all sorts of reasons. I've moved on and I am doing well. The blog continues to do well even without my presence: between 50 to 150 people come to see posts here every single day.
