This story spoke to me - because over the years my "spare" room has become the island of mostly-broken appliances. You know how it goes - you have an apppliance of some sort that you purchased "not that long ago" and then it stops doing the thing you bought it to do. You don't have the heart to throw it away just yet so you relegate it to an out-of-the-way place because you should get it fixed. Only you know in your heart that's the cruelest joke of all because you'll never take it to get fixed, you'll buy a new version of the thing that broke and, eventually, you will get on with your life, and toss the appliance in the trash.

According to the story I read there's a "flourishing sub-culture" of so-called Repair Cafes that provide a place for tinkerers to fix broken things, and also to keep appliances out of the trash ecosystem.

In my last article, I wrote a brief history of Christian denominations. I originally wanted to include both the benefits and the problems of denominations, but because the history and theological significance of denominations is so rich, I decided to not make the article any longer by adding to it. Instead I am writing about the benefits and problems with Christian denominations this week. Â
