WordPress Jetpack counts things in a different way, and the traffic in the last year was lower than 2016, but that is not easily found. The top five posts were…
- A snarky post about lowering academic standards.
- The cold religious war in England
- A vegan social activist who fisked PETA. It was also one of the easiest posts of the year to write
- Alt-Christianity and Generation Z (for Zyklon)
- And a pink pill post: women have a decade to set their life up. Men have longer, much longer
Thanks to those bloggers who have linked and followed, particularly Keoni, Cappy and Social Matter, from whom I get a fair number of links, and the people who pray for me and email me… including those who at times this year I have skyped and phoned when in crisis. Thanks to Robyn, who generally is next to me when I am blogging the lectionary. And let us praise God. We have not been silenced.
