I would tend to agree with the bible belt blogger - there is much more information available on a few good blogs than in most church newspapers. On another note, it seems that the bishop's call for a fast has gone somewhat undeeded. In the "Blogging Episcopalians" blog ring, there are 274 registered members (of all theological stripes) and 255 waiting in the queue for approval. Somebody in the church likes blogging.
