Hammer and tongs

There’s an unfortunate lesson here.

For years I’ve been writing on practical matters associated with religion and I get a steady readership. Nothing stellar, but steady. I chose this tack because years and years ago, I developed something of a reputation of getting in people’s faces and getting red-faced. I figured I could make more of an impact if I gave to the common good.

So, not entirely in character, I’ve lately been writing about controversial subjects and . . . .

Yesterday was my best day for attracting readers since I’ve added Google Analytics. Today promises to beat that. I still haven’t gotten to the UUA website problems or the terrible mistake the UUA Board has made with regard to independent affiliates.

There’s an unfortunate lesson here.

  1. As you know, Scott, I have been a long-time fan. I enjoy your posts both controversial and non-!

    I can also sympathize. Back at Unity I noticed the same phenomenon. I found it depressing. Now I don’t have a counter which–of course–makes me doubt that there is any readership at all!

    Keep up the good work!
