my rss feed was working fine until i checked it today and it was blank. I checked the feed validator and I received the error.
line 12, column 23: XML parsing error: <unknown>:12:23: undefined entity [help]

I have absolutely no idea how to fix this. I don't have much understanding of .php and the beauty of wordpress is you don't need to in order to blog but it makes fixing errors hard.
can we link to your site please?

Nah, it's not that hard, just some process of elimination. ;)
Try the usual steps at troubleshooting.
- Deactivate all of your plugins.
- Switch your theme to the Twenty Eleven theme.
Once that's done, see if your RSS feed will validate.
If it does, then switch back to your theme, re-validate, turn on 1 plugin, re-validate, repeat, etc. until you find the culprit that is interfering with your feed.

my site is http://www.economicdogma.com
So I followed your steps and with twenty eleven my feed works fine. I'm guessing that it is the theme i am using. It was just updated and it worked before the update.

It might be, but try switching to the Grsphene theme (that's what you're using) with the plugins deactivated. Just to rule out the theme.
If the feed doesn't validate when it's that theme and only that theme, then that's it.
If not, then activate your plugins one at a time with re-validating till you find the problem.
