In it we have quite a spirited conversation about HIV and the church. Marion explains to me why she thinks churches are making the HIV/AIDS situation worse in Scotland. Marion also gives details of how to contact her for anyone who wants to speak to a chaplain.
Do take a look.
You are real?!
I am very tempted to produce a spoof blog post ‘outing’ various Christian bloggers. I suspect at least one of them actually is a Syrian lesbian …
Oddly enough I was talking to somebody last week who struggled to believe it. I kind-of basked in your reflected glory.

Here is my congregations cv – the list of all the congregations where I’ve belonged in some way: Leeds Central Salvation Army (Interesting video here). Clydebank Salvation Army Leeds Central Salvation Army (again) Mt Zion Free Evangelical Church, Horbury,…
Just back from Student Christian Movement. I was their invited speaker tonight. Did the life-story, politics, vocation, usual topic, any questions. Good vegan stew/soup. Good company. Glad to be there.
