The Last Word : What's in a name ?

Notes: "Most Prayer Books refer to the holy day marked for 1 January as the Feast of the Holy Name. .... it is at our baptism that we hear words to the effect of `Name this child'. .... Our names are sacred. How awful it is when people, even Christians, try to label us with other `names' at time of conflict or confrontation. .... Some of these labels have surfaced post Lambeth 1998, on many `sides' of issues, and are often unfair. `He is a fundamentalist' or `she is a liberal' comes from the lips of, often, angry people, unable to see their fellow Christian or neighbour as God sees them; as sacred".
