This is the new Titusonenine Site

A blog purpose reminder
Here is a reminder of the purpose of this blog when it was started in March, 2003:

A free floating commentary on culture, politics, economics, and religion based on a passionate commitment to the truth and a desire graciously to refute that which is contrary to it….

Here is the section of the New Testament on which the title is based:

7: For a bishop, as God’s steward, must be blameless; he must not be arrogant or quick-tempered or a drunkard or violent or greedy for gain,
8: but hospitable, a lover of goodness, master of himself, upright, holy, and self-controlled;
9: he must hold firm to the sure word as taught, so that he may be able to give instruction in sound doctrine and also to confute those who contradict it.

Titus 1:7-9, RSV

Congratulations, Kendall!

It must be such a burden, having to deal with a blog that has a million and a quarter hits.  Will the site meter start over from scratch, or will you just keep going?

I notice that Greg made the first comment.  And it’s not even 7:00 am LA time.  Some people need to find real lives.

What I like so far about the site: When I finish reading the comments and I click back to the main page, it takes me back to where I left off.  Before on the old site, I was taken back to the top and had to scroll down again to the next article. 

Congrats on the new digs!

Snarkster, we think Kendall must have a couple of clones.  Kendall and Greg partnered together… scary thought!  Watch out Anglican world!

I wonder if Titus 1:9 is included in the new lectionary or do we now know better?

I want to ask a question about about Presbytarian Elders. It seems to me that Elders are chosen by the congregation in a fairly democratic way, for example when a church is founded. But it also seems that there is no way that an Elder can be voted down as a member of Session…ever. Is this really true? What for instance can be done if an Elder “behaves badly” - keeping it general for now, and does a disservice to the congregation? To whom are elders accountable and who can reign in their power?
Also - a technical question: why is my comment in a small side-chain of comments and not on the main blog
Thank you,
Peter
