Allistair Lomax replied to Stephen Petter's discussion 'Concerned about 'non-theistic Quakerism'. (An oxymoron!)'"Dear Stephen,
I'm afraid I can offer little advise about the possibility of 'outside' BYM. Unfortunately, there is little opportunity to follow a Quaker faith outside BYM in the UK. I and a few others have connections to…"
Allistair Lomax replied to Stephen Petter's discussion 'Concerned about 'non-theistic Quakerism'. (An oxymoron!)'"Hi Stephen,
I mostly resist the temptation to get involved in discussions on these kinds of issues, but I saw your posting and felt I needed to respond.I hope you won't be offended, if I offer you the following advice. To be frank, I…"
Allistair Lomax commented on Allistair Lomax's blog post 'SPEAKING TRUTH TO POWER: WHY BRITAIN YEARLY MEETING DID NOT...'"Thanks for your comment, Jane. I hope you won't mind if I respond. I don't think you should read anything into the fact the Britain Yearly Meeting was invited to address Elizabeth Windsor at all. It was probably done because the…"
Joe Turner commented on Allistair Lomax's blog post 'SPEAKING TRUTH TO POWER: WHY BRITAIN YEARLY MEETING DID NOT...'"I am not a Quaker, but have a lot of interest in conservative Quakerism and NFF.
To me, the issue is not about the titles (or even the individual) but the position the monarch represents. In that respect, my first - and only…"
Allistair Lomax commented on Allistair Lomax's blog post 'SPEAKING TRUTH TO POWER: WHY BRITAIN YEARLY MEETING DID NOT...'"Oddly enough, I can't find much to detract from in the content of the address either, but then again liberal Friends are good at expressing things that border on the platitudinous that few would disagree with. It's the…"
Nenad Knezevic commented on Allistair Lomax's blog post 'SPEAKING TRUTH TO POWER: WHY BRITAIN YEARLY MEETING DID NOT...'"We've just had a long discussion on this in the Quakers group on FB. I'm sorry that an otherwise good address has been marred by the debate on that one word. I tend to see it as a formality, but I also perfectly understand why many Quakers…"

Allistair Lomax commented on Jim Wilson's blog post 'Quaker Communion'"There are sound issues of faith behind why Quakers do not practice an outward 'communion'. Echoing Tom Smith's comment, I hope that those Friends who advocate an introduction of this form of ritual into Quaker worship will first…"
Allistair Lomax replied to Joseph Stalnaker's discussion 'Comparative Study: On Being Gay and Amish' in the group Conservative Friends"Thanks for the response, Joey, I do appreciate the way in which you have dealt with my response, without confrontation or rancour. I hope you won't mind if I do make a response to a couple of points.
Initially, it is fair to say, I…"
Allistair Lomax commented on Rodney Guy Pharris's blog post 'Fox on Bread & Wine'"This is an excellent exposition of the Early Quaker understanding of the Lord's Supper. I'd like to add a few comments, of my own, if I may. One of the other essential issues for Fox and the Early Quakers is the one of 'shadow'…"

My interest in NFF is that I want to listen, learn and ask the occasional question.
I am a member of an liberal meeting that does it's best to be supportive of my Christianity, but doesn't quite get it.
I have a deep concern about liberal Friends in the US cutting themselves off from our roots. I feel called to try and nurture that now tenuous connection the true Inward Teacher.
I am on the US mailing list for NFF and Dan Davenport may remember from our time together at Boise Valley Friends meeting some twenty years ago.
You can also look at some of my blog posts on this site.
Thank you for your consideration.
