The blog JN1034 is gutsy indeed. And impressive.
Within the categories and theology of Orthodoxy, JN1034 offers a compelling defense of human rights, and is particularly concerned with stopping the "global persecution against gays in the Orthodox Church," as well as supporting ecological responsibility.
What is particularly striking about this blog, however, is its theological sophistication. It takes as its inspiration the theology of théosis based in some part on St. John's Gospel, chapter 10, verse 34.
The people behind this blog are, as it were, no dopes! As a friend of mine who is an Episcopal priest pointed out: they aren't cranks.
Indeed. They are informed and--for now at least--determined.
Thank you for your gracious words, albeit we're far from having any substantial true-to-life value on the Internet. Your post inspired dialogue among us, bringing us to our knees as we reflected on our Christian lives and works for justice, peace, equality and equity of the Gospel, for humanity and creation. And so, our post today speaks to you as we affirm the necessity "to secure the blessings of liberty" by proactive initiatives, not just by written hypotheticals. With respect and admiration for your mission, JN1034+++
