A word about substack . . . you can read articles on substack for free, without an account if you want. All the previous posts are there too. You can ‘subscribe’ for free and then emails from me when I post will show up in your inbox. Substack will invite you to pay - but you don’t have to, it’s free. If you want to have have a paid subscription though, thank you, I’ll be collecting the $ into a discretionary account, just like the olden days when I was a priest, and giving it away to good people and places making the world better.
