I saw this taxi outside my office over the weekend. It appears to be the taxi of the beast. Should I be worried?

Ryan, I think you are right on principle, and I know lots of churches that have made the switch in the States. It’s easy enough to do on paper, too. But somehow it is just so much easier to say LGBT than GLBT (though GBTL would be OK verbally).

p.s. — Kelvin, I find it a really helpful list. It seems like something that should be circulated beyond the readership of your blog (wide though that is). Clergy mailing, perhaps? Inspires? MU newsletters? My Weekly and The People’s Friend?

What am I listening to?
Well, thank you for asking. It has been a while. This evening, I’ve been listening to the Damnation of Faust live from the Met in New York on Radio 3. I’m very tempted to give their live Cinema relays a go too. Excellent idea. (And is it the answer to the problem of Argyll and…
