<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>doesn't it seem a bit incongruous to spend so
much money studying someone who embraced 'Lady Poverty'? Yes life is
not as it was in Francis' time and cannot be so but surely there are
other ways to study the intellectual tradition?</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>For instance a video that could be made and

pilgrimage to one of the places mentioned.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Or one of the franciscan Scholars could be
studied in depth.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Even the General Chapter is beyond some
tertiaries - no we are not all wealthy. Is there a danger of 'one
-upmanship' here. So many pilgrimages to Asissi -yet again many cannot
afford to go and yet sometmes it might be thought to be an essential
requirement! (This is not sour grapes I have been to Asissi it was the
begining of my interest in Francis)</FONT></DIV>

I would love to be able to go. But how does spending the best part of
£1,000 on this fit with Day 12 of the Principles?<BR><BR>"Personal
spending is limited to what is necessary for the health and well-being
of us and of our dependents?"<BR><BR>I think there is a case for a
thorough-going discussion of what poverty has meant in the Franciscan
tradition and what it might mean today. There has been a great deal
written about poverty and the Franciscan tradition in recent
years.<BR><BR>An issue that keeps nagging me is that living
simply/espousing voluntary poverty is only an option for those who are
comfortably off. What of those for whom voluntary poverty is not an
option because they are already grindlngly poor? Is the Franciscan way
not open to them? (How far does the socio-economic make up of the TO
reflect that of our wider society - and if not why
not?<BR><BR><BR>Gordon Plumb<BR><BR></FONT>
