I had a pleasant weekend of eating out. S and I hit the town on Saturday; I went out with [livejournal.com profile] robhu and Safi on Sunday.

Much discussion of religion on Sunday. I remember mentioning James Fowler's Stages of Faith (surely begging for a Quizilla meme), and N.T. Wright's thoughts on what the Apostle Paul meant by the word gospel.

If I'd had time, I would also have mentioned this article on Process Theology which I found after Googling for stuff [livejournal.com profile] ladysisyphus mentioned. It's good to see my own thoughts about Romans 1 being thought of by someone else too. As usual, I find myself asking why don't you just give up? when I read this sort of thing, but it's also kind of interesting.

No great insights from all this discussion, apart from Slartibartfast's: that I'd far rather be happy than right any day. Logic is occasionally over-rated.

Update: The discussion continues in the comments, with contributions from me, [livejournal.com profile] robhu, and someone called FoaF.
