Today's Flickr photo with the most hits is a recent upload: the view to the west from the trig point, atop Pendle Hill. Keen eyes will be able to see Blackpool Tower and the Big One.

Rhiannon GrantThe Quaker Theological Discussion Group sessions over the weekend were rich international discussions, exploring the current state of the movement George Fox created and the many different ways it has developed around the world.
I spoke in the second panel, about Quaker theological discussion and how it might inform antiracist work. Both panels were recorded and are on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@quakertheologicaldiscussio8853
No poem today.
Instead, something about George Fox, Quakers, and Pendle Hill.

When William Penn was convinced of the principles of Friends, and became a frequent attendant at their meetings, he did not immediately relinquish his gay apparel; it is even said that he wore a sword, as was then customary among men of rank and fashion. Being one day in company with George Fox, he asked his advice concerning it, saying that he might, perhaps, appear singular among Friends, but his sword had once been the means of saving his life without injuring his antagonist, and moreover, that Christ had said, ‘He that hath no sword, let him sell his garment and buy one.’ George Fox answered, ‘I advise thee to wear it as long as thou canst.’ Not long after this they met again, when William had no sword, and George said to him, ‘William, where is thy sword?’ ‘Oh!’ said he, ‘I have taken thy advice; I wore it as long as I could.’
