    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.

    It was good. I  knew it was good.   Others knew it was good.  You knew it was good.  Therefore there was no need to comment.
    This does not mean that the good goes unnoticed.  I now know that you are good but it did not take a pictorial image to tell me so.

    Yes, Michael Hare-Duke really didn't like it. See – http://www.edinburghnews.com/index.cfm?id=1409042003 

    I think that his point that we should not be dressing Jesus up in a Santa outfit was rather impeded by his being pictured dressed as a pantomime bishop.

    What a great time I had this morning in Young Church. One of the things that we’ve been working to change, in devising a new programme for younger members in St Mary’s, is to build in some more contact with clergy. Today was the first clergy day in Young Church and I was the designated…

    What’s that? Did I see one of our bishops in the Daily Record today? Indeed I did, and kudos to Bishop Bob Gillies for leading the debate against caffeinated alchoholic drinks.
