I was looking forward yesterday Sunday to the docking of the first commercial capsule with the international space station. But the live feed distressed me, and I clicked out. I realise that this was a great achievement for America, but as long as I could bear to watch it, there was little if no acknowledgement of the cosmonauts present, or of the programmes behind them or behind everything. One doesn't do that. And they bore it with such grace. OBSERVATION: In the Church, too, one of the most distressing things for me is people who forget the importance of other people. It is of great importance in the Congregational Church, where all are said to have the Holy Spirit, and therefore are of immeasurable value to the Body.
