andrew, i like the idea of moving deeper discussion on this topic (court of the gentiles) to your opensourcetheology site.

the inability to thread on blogs makes ongoing conversation and cycles of building thought rather cumbersome. perhaps these communal blogs that keep popping up should try to move serious threads or comments to a system that can be aggregated and preserved? or not. the other thing is the overlap. the few communal blogs i am a part of have some overlap that could be fruitful:

postmodern_theology.blogspot.com
christianity.blogspot.com
opensourcetheology.net
kingdomspace.com

cheers.d
