“Children are experts in love and fairness”?!
Have they ever met a child? I had 5 of them. Children are often natural born tyrants if given a chance. I love my kids and they are wonderful human beings, but they didn’t come that way “by nature”.

What happened at Synod 2017
Of those who joked that those watching Synod via Livestream could benefit from the kind of color commentary provided for football, baseball and hockey. In the spirit of that I offer a post-game show. 🙂
Augustine and Pelagius
http://blog.ayjay.org/augustine-and-pelagius/
It makes a rigorous asceticism the only true Christian life — as [Peter] Brown points out, “Pelagius wanted every Christian to be a monk” — and condemns even the most determined ascetic to constant self-scrutiny, a kind of self-scrutiny that can never yield a clear acquittal. You might have missed something; and in any case you could sin in the next five minutes and watch your whole house of cards crash down.
