Victoria Pearson replied to James M. Branum's discussion 'The issue of dual-membership?'"i am multiply engaged with a number of traditions, and i think it's all right. the question that i think i am avoiding is-- what tradition do i want to struggle in? so i engage as i can, and avoid some of that struggle. i know that at some…"
Stephen Mitsuo commented on Victoria Pearson's blog post 'Called Out, Called In: Maggie Harrison's Loving Challenge'"Thank you, this was a wonderful, thoughtful post. I especially love the title--what a wonderful phrase."
Kevin Camp commented on Victoria Pearson's blog post 'Called Out, Called In: Maggie Harrison's Loving Challenge'"We're all put on the defensive from time to time. For example, I was constantly challenged and called out at the beginning of my Feminist work. And I still am, though I've learned an enormous amount.

Victoria Pearson posted a blog postCalled Out, Called In: Maggie Harrison's Loving Challenge
There is a prophet in our midst, and her name is Maggie Harrison. Rousing many like fire, making my skin itch at being possibly excluded from this club that I don't even belong to, really (when asked if I am a Quaker, I always respond, 'Not yet.'), but want to think I can put on and off like so much-- clothing?And, nakedness. Taking off the mantle of Religious Identity, making space for the un-knowingness of living INTO something, removing armor and scaffold and hard won (or not so hard won)…See More

Victoria Pearson commented on Laura Katherine's blog post 'Growth'"this is really a great frame for thinking about community growth, and its cyclic nature. As a new mother, I really resonate with this. Thank you for mining your experience and sharing it in this space."
Kathy Summers commented on Victoria Pearson's blog post 'Will the Real Christian Please Stand Up? Infighting and Outing Heterodoxy in Rob Bell's Advert'"Thanks Victoria for expressing something so important so well. Kathy"
"And when the Authorities asked Jesus where he got his authority, he asked them where they thought John the Baptist's authority came from. Rickey, I dunno if this is about "religious" people per se, but it sure fits people who imagine…"
Rickey D. Whetstone commented on Victoria Pearson's blog post 'Will the Real Christian Please Stand Up? Infighting and Outing Heterodoxy in Rob Bell's Advert'"All of the prophets of God in the old testament were considered heretics, that had a new revelation about God. Nothing has changed . . . with religious people since then. The next generation will praise Rob Bell for his insight.

- hi F(f)riends! I am a seeker and lover of Quakerliness. I live and work as Earth Literacy Teacher at Westtown School. I have attended meeting off and on since 1995-- first meeting in Boston at Beacon Hill Friends.

Martin Kelley said… - Thanks for joining! I love the "lover of Quakerliness" description--it's deliciously ambiguous. Feel free to jump into the blogs or forum to tell us more what that's about. And welcome again.
