David Keen has tagged me. I don't normally respond to tags or tag others but he did it so nicely and described me as an influence on his blog. Brilliant that you influence someone to start a blog and then they go off and do it so much better than you. It helps me to get in touch with my inner trainer.So he has posted here about blogs who have influenced him and invites us to go and do...

Mouse has been prodded into making a comment that he had intended to make some time ago. With the release of Robbie Williams' latest single 'bodies' there was much debate on Christian blogs about the theology behind it. David Keen provides a helpful summary of a large quantity of the commentary. Opinion ranges from those who attempt in vain to find the deeper meaning behind Williams'...

Summarising is a mug’s game, or possibly a meme. After my attack on Packer’s summary of the New Testament yesterday, David Ker suggested that summarising the message might make a good meme. So, allowing for creative adaptation of the rules, here’s a go at some rules for a new meme. Summarise the Bible in five statements, [...]

The Beaker Folk of Husborne Crawley (Free subscription) | 17/11/2009
Many thanks to Revd David Keen for his post alerting us to Britain's ageing population . It's all very distressing. For some. Here in Husborne Crawley, I'm feeling rather more sanguine. Firstly because it will improve the behaviour of our community over time. Young Keith's not going to be half so keen on staggering back from the White Horse planning trouble when he's Middle-aged...

Mouse is once again indebted to Rev David Keen for his excellent blog . This time for bringing to Mouse's attention a report entitled 'Life Support: Young people's needs in a digital age', commissioned by online charity YouthNet . The report deals with young people's views on the internet and its importance in their lives, and included a survey of 994 young people aged 16-24. The headline...

Local Bloggers are beginning to produce a few good examples of effective scrutiny of Local Councils. In this piece David Keen , who is a Vicar in Yeovil and writes regularly for my Wardman Wire political site, gives an account of a local controversy in the Somerset town of Somerton, which has lead to a number of resignations from the Town Council. Further, some national commentators...

... The funniest thing, however, is that Mouse's attention was brought to this by fellow blogger David Keen (via Twitter, of course). At the bottom of the psychological analysis, TweetPsych provides a short list of "Some people that think like you" (shouldn't that be 'who think like you'?). Top of the list was David Keen. That can only be bad news for Rev Keen....

David Keen, David Ker and Doug Chaplin have been posting on “5 Deeply De-Christian Doctrines”, a meme for which they have been tagged. So far no-one has tagged me specifically on this one, as far as I know. Is that because my name doesn’t fit the meme’s alliteration by starting with “D”? But David Ker [...]

I have never been “tagged” before on Zoomtard to be part of a blogging meme but David Keen tagged me on his 5 Deeply De-Christian Doctrines. List 5 doctrines that are taught within the Christian church that you believe to be deeply de-Christian. Here goes, off the top of my head: 1. That the commemoration of [...]

I’ve been tagged by David Keen with a rather good, if provocative meme. List 5 doctrines that are taught within the Christian church that you believe to be deeply de-Christian. There’s clearly some flexibility on the word “doctrine” here, to include some actual practices with ideological or theological implications. I shall try also to broaden my scope [...]
