Memory

This morning at church I accidentally inserted a word while reciting the creed - and realised immediately afterwords that I had put back this word had been part of anglican ritual while I was growing up, but had been excised from the liturgy about thirty years ago as part of the purge on what would now be called "gender-specific languange."

Funny how long something which gets drummed into your memory when you are a child can last even when it has been officially abandoned.
