    It is World AIDS Day next week. To mark that date this year, I’ve recorded a number of conversations with Marion Chatterley in connection with her work as Chaplain to people with HIV and Hep C in Scotland.

    Here are some of the things that Marion and I touched on this conversation:

    • Does it matter if you become HIV+ when they’ve got medicines that can keep it under control?
    • What stigma means in Scotland today
    • How young gay men are putting themselves at unnecessary risk
    • Dating apps
    • Why the church needs to talk about healthy relationships

    There will be more later in the week. Comments and questions welcome below.

    and speaking of blogging about today, Fr. Jonathan (MadPriest) has told us of his journey up to Glasgow to join you today.

    the rest of us are rather jealous and wish that we had been there, too.

  • Robin Hood Tax?

    I’ve been contacted by someone in the URC asking whether I’ll promote one of their current campaigns. (This comes after I came out in favour of one of the points in the recent agreement between Episcopalians, Methodists and United Reformed Church people). Its this Robin Hood Tax. I’m happy to point people towards it. The…

  • Still shocking

    I’d have thought that I would have lost the capacity to be shocked in the debates within the Anglican Communion. Not so though. I was quite shocked by the ethical reasoning that Rowan Williams was using this afternoon in his speech to the the General Synod of the Church of England. Fullness of freedom for…

  • Sermon added

    I’ve added AKMA’s sermon from yesterday to the preaching page. You can also see it over on his blog where the text is available too. Whilst I was listening to the sermon, images from a novel started to leap around in my brain. It took me a moment or two to think which one it…
