Another Paper Done
I'm done another one, paper for school, that is. I've only got a few left to tidy up long overdue course extensions...
This on revolves around Richard Hooker, his Lawes, extempore prayer and the Book of Common Prayer. I will not bore you with the details, but understanding the development of the Puritans within the Church of England is a good place to start!
The just of the essay is that by using the formal prayers of the Prayer Book, set form prayer, that the community improves itself as it can trust the written prayer seeks their good, as opposed to private prayer which can lead to selfish ends. the logic applies to any kind of group liturgy, so that careful planning and execution creates an edifying experience for all present, without the worry of its ends being high-jacked by one or two people.
