Pontifications announces change



Effective immediately Al Kimel is no longer allowing comments to his posts over at his blog, Pontifications. He made this announcement yesterday (9/27/06), offering as a reason his anticipated ordination into the priesthood of the Catholic Church and his need, spiritually and emotionally, to alter the blog. "One of the reasons I continued Pontifications after my conversion to Catholicism was to provide a forum for those Episcopalians who are wrestling with the question whether to leave Anglicanism and perhaps enter into the communion of either the Catholic or Orthodox Church," writes Kimel. But he says he thinks he's said just about everything that he has to say on this subject now, though he extends an offer to correspond with anyone considering conversion to Catholicism who wants to discuss his articles (Email Al Kimel at: tigana99 [at] hotmail.com). He Also acknowledges that he has enjoyed immensely the fascinating debates that have developed over the past two and a half years in his blog community, and that he has learned a great deal from those who have commented on his posts. Al says that he will continue to publish on his blog, but cannot yet say with what frequency.

Thanks for the two and a half years of good combox discussions, Al. We will miss them too. But we look forward to continuing to hear from you at Pontifications. God bless you in your preparations for Holy Orders.
