About

I’m an academic, a mother, a theologian, a Quaker, and a muesli-reading sandal-eating Guardian-wearing guilt-ridden liberal trying to be green and hoping not to be smug. I care about lots of things, perhaps too many; I think a lot, perhaps too much; I talk very fast and type slower; and I’ll figure out as I go along what this blog is for.

“Knowing experimentally” is a tip of the wide-brimmed hat to George Fox. When he talked about “knowing experimentally” he meant knowing from experience  – which is part of what a blog’s about. I also like the idea of knowledge that’s experimental in a contemporary sense – let’s see how it works, let’s see what difference it makes, let’s see what everyone else says.
