Screaming

I Scream, You Scream

Conservative Brethren, liberal Brethren, progressive Brethren, fundamental Brethren, left Brethren, right Brethren, wrong Brethren, red brethren, blue Brethren, and moderate purple Brethren all agree that it's a good idea.

Beardless

There's a Disturbance in the Force.

We've spotted a disturbing trend in the Brotherhood. While it's been a long time since anyone's seriously expected to see a head covering or a Brethren beard on any given Sunday morning with any kind of regularity, you could always count on those few outré young adults who hold on to the old ways. You could count on spotting a few at Brethren gatherings such as NYAC or Annual Conference and they always brought a warm fuzzy feeling to your insides. Whether it was the sincerity or outrageousness it was a welcome pillar to the foundation of the Brotherhood.

Well, they're becoming more scarce. When before, for example ,you could count on spotting the odd Brethren beard amongst those studying at Bethany it now seems that there's less hirsuteness to be found on those hallowed grounds. All too soon it will all be a memory.

Have you seen me?
