"No, the deciding body was Quaker, and the reason they gave not too post was that their blog was to attract prospective students and that an article like mine would drive them away for being too personal and polemic. There are non Quaker professors…"

Gustavo Cordoba Guerrero commented on Adriana Cabrera-Velásquez's blog post 'And the Latinos, ¿Qué?'"Adriana, you are all right. Perhaps what we need is to find our own way. As Quakers, We do not have neither a human boss, nor a need to wait for instructions other than the Light. Maybe what we need is to translate, unite us and write our own…"
Gustavo Cordoba Guerrero commented on Adriana Cabrera-Velásquez's blog post 'God´s Kindom on Earth'"Two years ago I got the opportunity to visit the church that you mention. It is nice. Of course, the philosophy of them is very interesting and somehow close to the Quaker Way."
Gustavo Cordoba Guerrero commented on Adriana Cabrera-Velásquez's blog post 'Queering Theology in Latin America'"Very good Post Adriana. However, what you mention about the refusal of ESR to post what they just ask from you annoys me a bit. Quakers or a Quaker school afraid of polemics? I am tempted to think that probably there are several staff members in…"

I have been in Chicago for the past week and will be in that city all through April, while I transition into my new job as the Christian Peacemaker Teams personnel cordinator. This past weekend I went to a wondeful United Church of Christ congregation and was amazed to find so many things I long to see within the Quaker context, even in progresive and convergent USA.This church has a mission statement as tangible and spelled out as I have never…See More
Adriana Cabrera-Velásquez posted a blog postAnd the Latinos, ¿Qué?
I attended the recent FWCC Section of the Americas gathering in Philadelphia and was pleasently surprised by the deep longing of pretty much everyone present for not having the Latin American representatives attend the Sessions. There just seems to not be money anymore to bring them to the USA for these meetings. FWCC explains this circumtance in several ways, to my understanding:1. We are suffering the effects fo the economic crisis.2. Latin American Friends have asked that not all the money…See More
Adriana Cabrera-Velásquez commented on Adriana Cabrera-Velásquez's blog post 'Queering Theology in Latin America'"Certainly! You can still see the video of my participation in the summit both in Spanish and English here http://www.bethanyseminary.edu/webcasts/PeaceConf2010 and read more about the event here …"
Heather Ferguson commented on Adriana Cabrera-Velásquez's blog post 'Queering Theology in Latin America'"thank you for this courageous and inspiring essay. Can we learn more about your work at the Summit in the Dominican Republic? I will look forward to future postings."

A couple of weeks ago, Earlham School of Religion, my Alma Mater, asked me to write a post for their official blog about my Quaker ministry in Colombia. When I submitted my contribution, I was told it would not be published, for it seemed too personal and polemic for the ESR blog readers. I still think it is a pretty cool text, so I am posting it here. I thank Earlham School of Religion for teaching me to think and write this way, even if now the strength and tone of my voice seems too much for…See More
