Dear New Christians Readers,

Last week we
implemented a small change to our blog commenting system – you now have to
confirm that you are  a real person, and not a spammer, by typing in a few
characters of text upon submitting your comments. This change was necessary in
order to curtail the amount of spam that many of our blogs have been receiving
in the comments area. We know that some of you have experienced problems with
the new system. We are quickly making changes to address the issues you have
reported–including extending the period before it times out, better messaging
about how to post, and instructions for how to retrieve your post if it appears
lost.

We
hope those changes help. Let us know if there are other changes you recommend.
Thank you for your patience.
