Re your comment on my blogpost about the Alpha course, just in case you didn't see my reply.


Hi Shwatsonlock

Depending on why you chose the Alpha Course, I'd recommend a number of different options.

If you want to find out more about life and meaningful answers to it, go along to your local Unitarian church, where you will be encouraged to explore your own spirituality and come up with your own answers, e.g. in the "Build your own theology" course. Or maybe go to a philosophy course, or something from Alain de Botton's school of life thing.

If you want to find out more about Christianity, go along to a "Living the Questions" course - there's an example of one here, but your local liberal Anglican church is likely to be running one. http://www.smitf.org/education/faith-courses/

Oh, and don't go to the Holy Spirit weekend for the Alpha course. And keep asking those awkward questions!
