"As long as liberation talk ignores racial oppression, White religion scholars are much more inclined to take it seriously." (James Cone, "Theology's Great Sin," p. 143)

Gotta hand it to the Roman Catholics. They’ve played a good long game. Really putting up some great popes lately right as magisterial Protestantism breathes its death rattle.

In other words: fascism is appealing to many during times of heightened political tension because it is (in some respects) a kind of anti-politics. It promises an easy end to social conflict; and managing social conflict without ending it is kind of what politics is.

Whoa, this is interesting. In 2016, the Journal of Anglican studies claimed that there were 1.44 million baptized Anglicans in the ACC. In the 2021 Census, only 1.1 million Canadians self-identified as Anglican, and in 2022, the parish roll count was at just under 300K. Fascinating.

One of the most striking things about the ongoing work of reconciliation is the way apologies and working towards good relations often reveals more work that has yet to be done. Reconciliation is not a one and done event, but rather an ongoing process. /

Indian Residential "Schools" were not schools. The stated purpose was to "Kill the Indian in the Child and save the Man". To this end, culture, language, and the lives of children were systematically destroyed. It was a genocide, acknowledged as such by both Pope Francis and the Canadian Government.

In a time when Residential School denialism is becoming more widespread, I am grateful for the many people both in the church and across society as a whole who are still committed to Truth and Reconciliation and to supporting this work in an ongoing fashion. www.anglican.ca/news/anglica...

LWF suggests that ELCIC has a membership of 40K as of 2023, but then under another spot on their website lists current membership at 80K. Do any Lutherans out there have a sense of which number is closer to being accurate?
