Adiaphora

Colophon

The title of this collection, adiaphora, is an old theological term that was used to describe lower-order points of theology that were not essential to the primary truths of the faith, e.g., the Gospel. These were things neither commanded nor prohibited by Scripture. Concisely, “things indifferent.”

This site then, with a bit of a wink and a nudge, aims to be a stream of such things that are either truly indifferent to life, or widely perceived as being so. Which bucket each item falls into is the task of the reader, as it is in daily life in the real world.

The site is powered by Tumblr, of course.
