Firstly the solution to the St Pythag's April Crossword can be found here, if anyone tried it. Sitting near some young people on a train on the Avocet Line the other day, I was able aurally to observe and study the dialect spoken by some of Today’s Youth. St Pythag’s…
A blog of gold for the Feast of All Fools and the Dessert Fathers. We also remember F D Maurice (1805-72) Priest, Liberal Theologian and a founder of Christian Socialism, who preached at the Church of St Edward, King & Martyr, Cambridge, from the same pulpit as Hugh Latimer (1487-1555)…
Monday March 14th 2016, or 3/14/16 as our American cousins number it, may rightly be called Pi Day (3.1416), and we will celebrate it as St Pythagoras & All Angles Day too. Of course, when I was young (and never needed anyone, those days are gone, don't wanna be..., sorry,…

Another affectionately humorous view of the Church refracted through the satirical prism of St Pythagoras & All Angles.

Many of our Christian brothers and sisters in many parts of this world have been suffering cruel persecution recently and our prayers are with them; but it is the faiths that have no fun, and claim purity or perfection, that are usually the most dangerous and hurtful, so I think…
Greetings and a bright spring welcome to a Blog with some personal views from the Square on the Hypotenuse at the late Perpendicular expression of Church that is St Pythagoras & All Angles. Lent should be a time of Selfie denial, but... I know it's easier to satirise than to sanctify,…
Greetings and a warm winter welcome to the Yule Blog with some personal views from your correspondent, the Square on the Hypotenuse, at the parallel impression of Church that is St Pythagoras & All Angles, defying the gravitas of Advent and presenting some festive fun and reflections as we reach…
