medieval-religion: Scholarly discussions of medieval religion and culture
I think I should just point out that the 'Ship of Fools' site, while it
contains reports of services held in churches throughout the world,
including the one involving Desmond Tutu at St Albans, has nothing to do
with the congregation of St Albans.

> I sent Brenda Cook's note referring to St Albans from the discussion on
representations of Januarius on to a friend who is a lay canon of St Albans
with a great interest in its building - and thought his responses, from the
point of view of one living daily with the fabric, might be of interest.

"even originally"?
what a curious concept.

with Desmond Tutu presiding]
with respect to the former ArchBishop, there is much more of interest on
that
site than his 12 minute ruminations on Alban's martyrdom.

with the Promise of *more* to come
"COMING SOON! A 7-inch screw in a cardboard box, to remind you of what
George
Bush and Tony Blair are doing to the Middle East!"
these Albanites are definitely on the Cutting Edge of the New Religion.
