Well, of course it's about my life and stuff I think about. Just like a quadzillionbazillion other bloggers. I'm obsessed with God. I love beauty, enjoy absurdity, dance with despair, seek silence, and think everyone is goofy. Here's my world and what I think of it....

I finally found the one thing truthful about myself, my perceived piety is equal to my actually piety... which is basically zero. Never divide by zero piety, bad joss.
I would a fourth group ("D"), the old ladies in the front pews. In our church their perceived piety can occasionally dip below (yes, below) the perceived piety line because they are prone to talking - full voice - during the liturgy. Their actual piety is considerable once you get to know them. I don't think the chit chat is intended for any effect - neither to humble the priest nor fool others (as might a Fool for Christ); it's just chatter. Distracting? yes. Maddening? Occasionally. Would they be missed? Absolutely - the not-really-all-that-quiet pillars of the Church.
I'm with Ian.
Perhaps God will bless me and let me be an 'old lady' some day....or perhaps not.
I've very much enjoyed your podcasts on this theme. Thank you and keep them coming!
oh man, I always stand near the front. what does that say about me?? But in my defense, I've done that everywhere (except where I was on the band - er worship team). I'm too easily distracted to stand in the back. I have a hard enough time where I am.
